With this permission users can:
-
View allowance requests;
-
Create an allowance request from employee dashboards;
- Request overtime approval from the approval dialog;
-
Edit a pending allowance request;
-
Delete a pending allowance request; and
- Request to delete an approved allowance.
How to request overtime from time and attendance
When the correct permissions are set, when approving a clocking with overtime, a new tab will be available titled 'Overtime requests'.
When you click on this, you will see the option 'Request overtime'.
Upon clicking, a dialog will appear, click "Apply" to send the request.
When finished, the status of the request will change to "Pending approval"
Note: Approval buttons will be greyed out until the overtime request is approved in the single approval dialog. An error will be displayed if done from the bulk approval dialog.
