General Processes
In general, employees request absences by creating a request with the start and end dates, and type of absence (such as vacation).
An absence approver is notified of such a request, and they can approve or reject the request, and give a reason.
Employees have a certain number of allowed absence days in a vacation period, and they can only make request time that is available in a period. However, you can disable this for specific absence types, such as sick leave. Also, at any time, a manager can adjust the available allowance for an employee. Employees can request that more days are added to their allowance, and such requests go through an approval process. This functionality is configurable for each absence type.
