How do I update holiday requests?

Modified on Tue, 10 Dec, 2024 at 2:54 PM

If you are looking to take annual leave, you can submit a holiday request to your manager through Cintra's Self-Service Holiday module. The request can then be reviewed and approved by your manager(s), which depends on your company's tiered approval structure. Once the request is in the system, you can see its status in the Calendar and Team calendar for that month. For more information about who approves the request, see How Do I Know Who Approves My Holiday Requests?

Note:

If you are the manager submitting the request on behalf of an employee, It is best practice that you have implicit approval from the employee to proceed. The request will then be approved automatically.

You can update a request before and after you submit it for approval. The process is the same for both except:

When you update a Holiday Request, the status in the Calendar and Team calendar remains as Booking Request. An email is sent to your manager to approve the request as normal.
When you update an approved booking request, the Approved Booking status reverts back to Booking Request and an email is sent to your manager to re-approve the request.
When you update a rejected booking request, the Rejected Booking status reverts back to Booking Request and an email is sent to your manager to re-approve the request. For more information about rejected bookings, see the How Do I Re-use a Rejected Holiday Request?

To update a holiday request

Sign in to Self-Service.
Navigate to the Holiday Bookings page by clicking on the Holiday menu option.
Open the desired request. The Edit Holiday Booking form appears with the Absence Type inactive.
Update the request where necessary.
Click the Re-Submit button. The request is re-submitted to your manager for approval.

Note:

You can make as many changes as you wish before submitting the request for approval.
