Absence Calendar
The Absence Calendar list combines vacation, sick leave, and compensatory time entries in one calendar-oriented list. It is especially useful for pending approvals and cross-user visibility.
Typical Audience
This list is typically relevant for:
- employees who check their own pending requests
- Department Leads who review approvals in their departments
- HR Admins who review absences across users
Navigation
- Standard deeplink:

Notes
- The list merges three absence types: vacation, sick leave, and compensatory time.
- Visibility depends on the current user's role, department scope, and whether the row belongs to the current user.
- If a viewer is not allowed to see details, the list can generalize the absence text.
