If you have users that work zero-hour contacts OR working periods that aren't strictly planned, e-days offer the function of Manual Day Calculator - MDC for short.
This function allows the manager OR user to specify days that they are working and are not - see an example:
This also works over multiple days/ weeks.
In order to configure this, please ensure the rota pattern is configured - we'd recommend creating a 7-day working pattern (to accommodate any possible day of working/ absence).
Link for Rota creation below:
Once created, you will need to ensure the permission is enabled on the users' account - see below steps:
- Admin tools
- Users
- Search and edit the user(s) in question
- Select the System tab
- Scroll down to Absence settings- enable the permission -
- Save to confirm.
Now the authoriser OR user will be able to book any planned OR unplanned absence using the MDC tool.
Any questions, please inform the team.
