Calendar Request - Overlapping Time Off Message

When an employee enters a calendar request from the monthly view or the TCS (Time Card Screen), a Time Off informational message appears by default if other employees have overlapping time off. As they enter a date, pay code, time, and hours, the number of overlapping employees updates based on these filters.

When a manager approves an employee's calendar request through the TCS, Transaction Requests page (Actions > Approval > Transaction Requests), or the schedule grid, a Time Off informational message also appears if other employees in the department or unit have overlapping time off.

In either situation, users can click the link in the message to show a list of the employees and their overlapping transactions.
