2

Choose to cancel the request

In the absence request window, click on the garbage can icon at the bottom left and then select “Cancel request”.

3

Provide a reason for cancellation

A field will appear prompting you to give a reason for the cancellation. Once you’ve entered the reason, click “OK” to confirm the cancellation.

Example of a request that cannot be canceled

Requests that have already started or are in the past cannot be canceled by regular employees. For example, if Diego’s parental leave started on March 8, it can no longer be canceled from March 9 onwards. Note that in this case, the trash can icon to access the “Cancel request” option is not visible.
