Declining a Leave Request

The following example explains how to decline an employee’s leave request.

1. Click the Decline icon for the relevant leave request.

   The decline Leave Request form appears. This read-only form shows you details of the employee’s leave request.

   If the request is for a partial day’s leave, then the First day of leave and Last day of leave fields are replaced with Leave date and Start time.

   Note: You can edit a request before you approve it. See Editing a Leave Request.

2. Click Decline.
3. In the Decline reason field, enter a reason for declining the leave request.

   Note: You must enter a Decline reason or you will get an error when you attempt to submit the form.

4. Click Submit.

   The declined leave request record is cleared from your Requests tab.

   The employee is notified by email that their leave request was declined. The email includes the information that you entered in the Decline reason field.

You may be able to decline multiple requests at one time using Bulk decline (see Bulk Approve and Decline).
