Requesting leave

Pick a type and dates, read the working-day preview and the balance estimate, and submit.

Who can do thisEmployeeHR ManagerHR Administrator

You ask for leave from the Request leave card on My Leave. HCM counts the working days for you and shows what your balance will be afterwards.

PictureThe request form after you pick the dates. Juleaftensdag counts as a half-day holiday here, so four calendar days cost 3.5 days.

Send a request

  1. Open My Leave and find the Request leave card.
  2. Choose a Leave type from "Select a type…".
  3. Pick a Start date and an End date. A one-day request uses the same date twice.
  4. Read the preview line: "Working days: 4". For a tracked type it also says "Balance after (estimate): 10.5 / 25 days - server is authoritative at submit time".
  5. Optionally write a Note (optional): "Anything your approver should know".
  6. Click Submit request.

  1. On My Leave, open Leave type in the Request leave card and choose Vacation.
  2. Pick the Start date: Monday 21 December.
  3. Pick the End date. The preview counts 3.5 working days: Juleaftensdag is a half-day holiday here, so you only pay for half of it.
  4. Optionally add a note for your approver.
  5. Click Submit request.
  6. The request is in My requests as pending, and the Vacation card shows 3.5 pending approval. Your manager sees it in Approvals; no email is sent.
WalkthroughRequesting leave from My Leave. The days are held as "pending approval" until the manager decides.

The form clears and the request appears under My requests as "pending". If the leave type needs no approval, it shows as "approved" straight away.

The preview

  • The working days appear after a short pause, once both dates are valid. Until then the line shows a dash.
  • Weekends do not count. Public holidays and company days do not count either, and HCM tells you: "This range includes a holiday you don't pay for: Juleaftensdag (2026-12-24, half day)".
  • The balance estimate turns red when it goes below zero. HCM will most likely refuse the request.
  • The estimate is a guide. The real check happens when you click Submit request.

Why a request is refused

The message appears in red under the form.

MessageWhat to do
"Insufficient balance for this leave type."Ask for fewer days, or wait until more days are earned. Requests still pending also hold days.
"Overlapping leave request exists."You already have a pending or approved request in those dates, of any type. Cancel it first.
"Leave request must include at least one working day."The range is only weekend or holiday.
"End date must not precede start date."Swap the dates.
"A leave request can cover at most a year."Split it into shorter requests.
"No approval route configured for leave requests."HR has not set up an approval rule that fits. Tell HR; see Set up leave approval first.

Good to know

  • Leave is booked in whole days. You cannot ask for a half day or hours.
  • Leave next year is taken from next year's days, not from this year's.
  • The number of working days is fixed when you send the request. A holiday added later does not change it.
  • HCM sends no email. Your manager sees the request in their Approvals inbox.
