Cancelling a Leave Request

Background information

A leave request can be cancelled in Timmi Absences. This can be done by the administrator or by the user directly, as long as the leave being cancelled is in the future.

This article covers the following points:

• Cancelling a future request
• Cancelling a past request
• Partial cancellation

Cancelling a future request

The user can cancel a future leave request from the ‘Request leave’ tab, by clicking on the request and then clicking on ‘Cancel request’ (if the request has not been approved yet) or ‘Request cancellation’ (if the request was already approved).

If the request has not been approved yet, it will be directly cancelled.

If the request was already approved, the user requests a cancellation, which must be approved by their manager. The request remains visible in green on the calendar until the manager accepts the cancellation.

Cancelling a past request

Any absence requests for past dates (including the current day) cannot be cancelled by the user. They must contact their manager.
Since the cancellation request is pending for the manager in their ‘Approve’ tab, it is up to them to deny the request.

If the past request was approved, only the administrator is able to cancel the request using the Manage the schedule module.

Partial cancellation

The administrator can edit or cancel part of the request in the Manage the schedule module by selecting the days in question.
