Line Managers Can Manage Subordinates' Absences

To enable Line Managers to add absences for their subordinates within Cezanne HR, the Line Managers Can Manage Subordinates' Absences option must be ticked for the associated Absence Plan Type.

Absences >> Absence Plan Types >> Absence Plan Type Details >> Administrative Settings

Note:

Regardless of whether this option is ticked or not, Line Managers can still approve the absence requests that are forwarded to them from workflow.
If Self Service users are not able to Make Absence Requests, it is most likely because the Employees Can Make Absence Requests check box is not ticked.

This article explains how this option works and contains the following sections:

Line Managers Can Manage Subordinates' Absences = NOT TICKED
Line Managers Can Manage Subordinates' Absences = TICKED
