Request time off

Ask for time off, check your balance before you do, cancel a request you no longer need, and approve or decline the requests sent to you.

Time off goes from a request to an approval on one page, Team > Time off. Your balance and the requests waiting for you sit on the right.

Before you start

  • Spodus finds your record under Team > People by your sign-in email. Ask an admin to set your Work email if it doesn't match.
  • An approver must be someone in People who can sign in to Spodus.

Things to know

  • The leave types are Vacation, Sick, Personal, Parental, Bereavement and Unpaid.
  • A request is Pending until it is Approved or Declined. If you cancel your own pending request, it becomes Cancelled.
  • Days are counted as working days, Monday to Friday. They come from the dates you pick. A single working day can be taken as a half day.
  • If your workspace sets an allowance for a leave type, you can't ask for more days than you have left. See Leave policy.
  • Approved time off lowers the hours your timesheet expects that week.

Request time off

  1. Go to Team > Time off.
  2. Click Request time off.
  3. Pick the Type, then the Start and End dates. Days shows how many working days that is. If you picked one working day, turn on Half day to ask for half of it.
  4. Choose an Approver. You must pick one. Your manager is chosen for you if they can sign in.
  5. Add a Reason if you like, then click Submit.

Your approver gets a notification. On Growth, the request also shows in their Approvals.

Check or cancel your requests

Your upcoming requests are listed under My requests on the right. To withdraw a pending one, click Cancel next to it.

My balance shows how many days of each type you have left.

Approve or decline a request

Requests sent to you appear under Awaiting you on Team > Time off. Click Approve or Decline.
