Days Off And Hours Off In BigTime Foresight
In BigTime Foresight, the Administrator decides whether employees can report only days off or hours (including partial time off). Therefore, we have two possible time-off request models in BigTime Foresight:
1. Reporting Full Days Off
2. Reporting Partial Day Off
Configuring Time Off Request Settings
To set globally for the entire organization whether employees should be able to report only daily leaves or partial leaves is possible in the administrator panel. To reach these settings, follow the following path:
|
Make sure you have access to the Administrator Role Panel ➡ Go to the General Settings Tab ➡ Click Allow Staffers to request Partial Time Off toggle
|
Adding A Time Off With Partial Time Off Enabled
With this setting, the time off request window will allow you to report time off in days and hours.
A toggle can be switched from full day to partial day.
The form allows you to select full-time days off from the calendar or a particular number of hours from a selected number of days.
Adding Full Day Off With Partial Day Off Disabled
With this setting, the time off request window will allow you to report time off only in days. It will differ from the one that appears to staffers if the partial time off option is enabled.
- No toggle can be switched from full day to partial day.
- The form allows you to select full-time days off from the calendar.
Partial Time Off And Full Day Off In Calendars
If the administrator allows reporting partial time offs, and managers or staffers add time off as partial, the calendar shows the requests in hours.
If the administrator allows the submission of requests only for full days, time offs in calendars are always shown in days.
Setting Up Limits Of Time Off Hours
The number of hours staffers and managers can request depends on the settings of their contracts. When creating a contract in BigTime Foresight, they set up contract capacity hours for each weekday. Therefore, they cannot request more hours off than the contract capacity indicates for a given day. The system returns an error when the request exceeds the manager's set number of hours.
To submit a request for more hours, please edit staffers' contracts.
