Request details

Request details

When you navigate to the TMS Requests feature, a list of any Requests generated are displayed in the list. Clicking on the Type or Description of a Request opens a page with further details. An example below is from an Absence request:




The details in the previous example include:

  • The top part of Request details is the same for every Request Type.
    • Type — what type of Request is generated.
    • Submission date — what date the Request was generated
    • Status — the current status of the Request.
    • Last modified — the date the Request was last modified by a Supervisor
    • Supervisor comments — an optional comment the Supervisor wants to add to the Request


Depending on the Request Type, the layout of the Summary section is similar to the page that generated the request.


  • Summary — details about the Request. The previous example uses:
    • Code — the code for Absence Type and the description
    • Start date — the date the absence begins
    • End date — the date the absence finishes
    • Period — how much of the day you will be absent. The options include 'Full day', 'First half', 'Second half' and 'Either'.
    • Reason — an optional short description of why you will be absent


The example below is from the summary in Request details of a Work record. The 'Before' and 'After' shows the changes that will be made if the Request is accepted:




Note: many of the Request details are defined by your system administrator and so may be different from those displayed here.

<undefined> is displayed when a field is empty.

You are taken to the associated page where you generated the request, below is an example of when an absence is modified:

The Requests feature allows you to delete Requests which you no longer require. First navigate to the Requests page and locate the relevant request. Click on the Type or Description of the request to open the Request details page.
