How to adjust a time off request

To change the dates of a time off request, go to Time Off ‣ Management ‣ Time Off, open the request and click Adjust Dates. Enter the new start and end dates and click Confirm: the request keeps its status and its duration is recalculated. Use it when an employee extends or shortens a leave, instead of cancelling the request and creating a new one.
