The Time Off Request Duration tab on the Time Off Request Policy form is used to configure the duration amounts a user can enter when making a time off request for an Hours Amount. For example, if the Time Off Request Duration tab has records for 2, 4, and 6 hours, then time off requests can only be made for these hours amounts.
If the policy has no Time Off Request Duration records, then the Hours Amount will not be limited to specific durations. A time off request can be made for any Hours Amount up to 24 hours.
When a supervisor makes a time off request for an employee (via the Time Off Review form), the Time Off Request Durations in the employee's Time Off Request Policy will be used.

Duration
Number of hours a user can enter when making a time off request for an Hours Amount. For example, if the Time Off Request Duration tab has records for 2, 4, and 6 hours, then the person can only have time off requests made for these hours amounts.
You can enter the Duration in Clock or Decimal format (e.g., 2 ½ hours could be entered as 2:30 or 2.5).
The Time Off Request Duration tab will display the Duration values in decimal format. However, when you modify a Duration, it will display in Clock or Decimal format depending on your Preferences Duration Format setting. If your Preferences Duration Format setting is Decimal, when you modify a Time Off Request Duration, the number of places after the decimal that display will depend on the Time Precision in your Rounding Policy.
