ASCENDER EmployeePortal > Leave Requests
This page is used to create, edit, delete, and submit leave requests for the selected payroll frequency. After a leave request is processed by payroll, it is no longer displayed on this page.
If this page is not enabled, check with your EmployeePortal administrator, as the LEA may have opted to not allow access.
If a message is available from your LEA, it is displayed in red at the top of the page.
Under Unprocessed Leave Requests, a list of your unprocessed (not processed by payroll) leave requests is displayed, if any. The following details are displayed for each leave request:
You have two options to create a leave request.
Option 1: Click Add in the upper-right corner of the Leave Requests page. The Create Leave Requests pop-up window opens allowing you to enter the details of your leave request.
Option 2: From the EmployeePortal homepage calendar, you will notice that the current day is highlighted in yellow.
TIP: If you have an existing approved or pending leave request, the entry is displayed for that calendar day. You can click the entry to open the details of the request and edit the request as needed. If you have an existing processed leave request, you can click the entry to open the details of the request; however, you cannot edit the request.
