Approve or deny a time-off request
A screen recording of Pearspark doing exactly this in a sample school, and the same 7 steps written out below in the labels you'll see on screen.
How to approve or deny a time-off request
- 1If Time clock isn't under People, click Settings, open Modules & campuses, tick Time clock and click Save changes
- 2Click Time off under People in the sidebar — requests wait under "Waiting for an answer", oldest first
- 3Click Approve on the row, adjust "Hours to pay" if needed, add a "Note back" and click Approve — the row moves to the Answered list
- 4To refuse, click Deny, give a reason under Why and click Deny — the person gets a notification and an email either way
- 5If Payroll delivery is set up, click "Email payroll now" on an approved row in the Answered list to send that one approval to payroll today
- 6Click Remove on an answered row to take it off the record and out of the payroll file
- 7Click the Timesheets tab — approved days show above the hours as "Approved time off in this period" and ride in the export
Part of Staff, time clock & substitutes
Staff clock in and out and ask for time off; you fix a punch, send the pay period to payroll, keep each teacher's clearance on file, and say who covers a class.
