The **Time Off** page includes a **Pending Requests** section, where you can review all pending requests and choose to **approve** or **reject** them.

**When approving a time off request, the options differ depending on whether the time off is paid or unpaid.**

- **For unpaid time off**, you can only create a shift, which will appear on the Scheduling page.
- **For paid time off**, you have the option to create both a timesheet and a shift.

If you want to ensure the employee gets paid for their time off, create a timesheet. This timesheet will be included in reports and can be exported to your payroll provider.

 

### FAQs

##### How will I know if my time-off request was approved or declined?

You will receive an email to your account email, stating that the request was approved or declined. The admin or manager if it was declined can share the reason as to why. 

##### Will the admin still receive PTO notifications if the a shift schedule is on the calendar?

No, admins will not receive PTO notifications of users who have a time-off schedule on the calendar.
