Editing a leave requests as a leave approver

As a leave approver you can edit parts of a requested, approved or declined leave request dependent on the type of request. This may be necessary if staff members miscalculate the number of hours they need to request, or request the wrong day or leave type.


To view leave requests, go into your back office and select Staff & Roles > Leave from the left hand navigation.



Click the blue Leave requests button.



If you haven’t yet responded to the leave request you want to edit, it’ll be under the Requested leave tab. If you’ve already approved or declined the leave request, click the appropriate tab to find it. By default, leave requests are shown in order of leave start date.



Requested leave


Find the leave request you want to edit and click the blue Edit button at the end of the row.


The request details will pop up. For all Requested leave, you will be able to edit:

  • The leave type
  • The duration
  • The dates
  • Add any notes
  • Any hours or time fields



Approved/Declined leave


Find the leave request you want to edit and click the blue Edit button at the end of the row.


The request details will pop up. For all Approved or declined leave, you will be able to edit:

  • The leave type
  • Add any notes
  • Any hours or time fields


Note: The dates or the duration of an Approved or Declined request cannot be edited and are greyed out to identify this. If the staff member has requested the wrong dates, they will need to submit a new leave request.
