Staff holiday requests
Staff can submit a holiday or absence request from their shifts page at rotadone.co.uk. They specify the dates and a reason. The request appears in the manager view for approval.
Approving or declining
From the rota editor, open the Absences modal from the More menu. Pending requests appear here. Approve or decline each one. Approved absences are written into the rota — the person will not be scheduled on those dates.
How absences affect solving
An approved absence works like unavailability for those specific dates. The solver will not assign the staff member to any shifts on absent days. If they were already assigned, you will need to reassign those shifts manually or re-solve.
