Cancelling an approved holiday
Last updated
Who can do this: Company admins, Team admins, Office admins and Department admins (see below), and anyone for their own upcoming leave. Plan: All plans.
You can cancel a holiday after it has been approved. The days go back to blank in Team Today. If the person syncs their whereabouts to Outlook or Google Calendar, their calendar is updated too.
Who can cancel approved leave
- Company admins can cancel any approved leave, including leave in the past.
- Team admins can cancel leave that starts today or later for Standard users in their team and for their line reports.
- Office admins and Department admins can cancel leave that starts today or later for their line reports.
