Change an Absence

Changing an absence varies depending on the status of the absence request. The following statuses are used in Cezanne:

Draft An absence which has not yet been submitted for approval and is still in your Tasks inbox.
Approval Pending An absence which has been submitted for approval but has not yet been approved / declined by your supervisor.
Approved / Declined An absence which has been approved / declined by your supervisor.

Based on the status of your absence, select the relevant instructions below to change the absence:

'Draft' Absence

If the absence is in draft, you can make a change by clicking the task in your tasks inbox and making the required change(s) before submitting the request.

'Draft' Absence
'Approval Pending' Absence

If the absence has been submitted and is pending approval, you can change it by clicking on the absence event and selecting the Unsubmit Request button and then making the required change(s) before re-submitting the request.

'Approval Pending' Absence

(Your supervisor will receive one e-mail to tell them that you have unsubmitted your request and another when you click to re-submit your request)

'Approved' / 'Declined' Absence

If the absence has already been approved / declined, you can change it using the Absence Change Request process.
