Employees can submit leave requests through the Employee Self Service (ESS) module. Leave applications will be routed through the configured approval workflow and remain in Pending status until approved or rejected by the designated approver(s).  Steps to Apply for Leave: Go to Apply Leave. Click + New Leave Request. Select the Leave Type. Select the date via the following methods: Select By Calendar – Click the required date(s) on the calendar. Select By Range – Click the start and end date. Select By Input – Select the start date and enter the number of leave days; the system will auto-generate the dates. Enter the Reason for the leave. Click Submit. The leave application will be submitted successfully and the status will be shown as Pending.

Employees may cancel an approved leave application if the leave is no longer required or if they are able to return to work as planned. Cancelling leave helps ensure leave balances, attendance records, and payroll calculations remain accurate.  Steps to Cancel Approved Leave via ESS: Go to Apply Leave. Locate the leave you wish to cancel and click the cancel icon. Select the applicable days(s) and enter the Cancellation Reason. Click Cancel Leave.
