Review vacation requests and approval letters

Before you start

Employees submit vacation requests through Shiftor Employee. Open the employee’s profile and Vacation Requests, or follow a vacation item from Approvals.

Step by step

1. Select a status filter such as Pending or All. Check the employee and the selected vacation dates.
2. Review the request against planned work and staffing before deciding.
3. Choose Approve or Reject on a pending request and wait for the result. Avoid repeating an action while it is updating.
4. For an approved request, use Download approval letter to retrieve the archived PDF.
5. Check the roster and unresolved absence or staffing cases for the affected dates. Arrange eligible replacements where needed.

Notes & troubleshooting

• Approving creates and stores a PDF approval letter. Use its download action to verify the record.
• An empty filtered list can mean no requests match the selected status. It does not create a request on the employee’s behalf.
