Add time off for employees
As an administrator or manager, you can submit time off requests on behalf of employees in Zoho Shifts. This is useful if an employee forgets to submit a request or does not have permission to add their own time off.
Before you start
You can raise a time off request for an employee if you have “Add or edit other employees’ time off” permission.
