Seeing who is on leave today

Seeing who is on leave today

Two cards answer "who is off today?" before you chase anyone who seems to be missing: On Leave Today on your main Dashboard, for your own team, and On leave today on the Attendance dashboard, for everyone you can see in Attendance. Both list approved leave only, so someone with a request still pending does not appear.

Where:

  • Your team: Dashboard › On Leave Today
  • Everyone, with return dates: Attendance › Dashboard › On leave today

You need:

  • Manage Others and Attendance access for the Dashboard card. Its list fills only if your user rights also let you see all employees. Without that it always says "No one is out today."
  • The Team Attendance right for the Attendance dashboard

How to see who on your team is off today

  1. Open Dashboard from the sidebar.
  2. Find On Leave Today. It opens on Subordinates: the people who report to you directly.
  3. To widen or narrow it, open the dropdown beside the title and tick Same Department, Same Branch or Subordinates. Ticking several shows only people who match all of them. One must stay ticked.
  4. Read each row: the person's name and position, and their leave type on the right.
  5. Select a person to open the Leave tab of their profile.
  6. Select the On Leave Today title to open the Attendance calendar.

How to see who is off and when they are back

  1. Go to Attendance › Dashboard.
  2. Find On leave today in the side column. The count beside the title is everyone on leave.
  3. Read up to four people: their name, department and leave type, and when they are back, such as "Back tomorrow" or "Back Fri".
  4. Select a name to open that person's Schedule in a new tab, with their leave among the days around it.
  5. If more people are off, select See all beside "N more on leave". The Event List opens filtered to leave on that day.

What Happens Next

The cards change nothing. They tell you who not to chase. Someone missing who is not on either card has no approved leave for today: check Approvals for a pending request before treating it as an absence.

Tips

  • "Back" is the day after the leave ends, not their next shift. Leave ending on a Friday shows "Back Sat" even if they next work on Monday.
  • Pending leave is not shown. Decide requests for today first, or the card understates who is off.

Troubleshooting / FAQ

Q: The Dashboard card always says "No one is out today." Your user rights do not let you see all employees, so the card does not load. Ask your administrator, or use the Attendance dashboard.

Q: Someone on leave is not on my Dashboard card. Check the dropdown. Subordinates shows only people whose manager is you, not their team's members.

Q: I do not see the On Leave Today card on my Dashboard. It needs Manage Others and Attendance access, and it must be switched on in your dashboard's widgets.
