Planning holidays

Holidays, for a given user, can be planned according to the value of "Holiday rights" :

  • by herself/himself if they, for 'Owner', are at least set to 'Create/Modify' ;
  • by others if they, for 'All', are at least set to 'Create/Modify'.

Planning new holidays will create a holiday request that will be reviewed by the person in charge of it.
 
Holidays can be planned in two possible ways, either of them leading to a screen as featured in Fig.Defining new holidays and New holidays can be finally validated, where start and end dates can be chosen with two pop-up calendars :

  • via the Main Planning Page, by clicking on an empty cell and choosing "Holidays" on the Manage Day pop-up : both calendars will then be set to the date corresponding to the clicked cell ;
  • or via the Image z_New_holidays button as found on the My Holidays Page.

It is to note that both start and end dates can be modified. If user has enough days remaining to take her/his planned holiday, the request is validated and user is either redirected to the Main Planning Page or My Holidays Page, where this new request is seen as pending.

The holiday request as created assumes that full days are taken ; if user wishes to plan half-days (or more complicated hourly patterns), the (still unreviewed) request can be then modified.
 
It is to note that, thanks to the overdraft amount as set during assessing workweek profile to users, a user can plan holidays/do modifications that go over her/his day balance.
