Time-Off Request
A formal request by an employee to take leave on specific dates.
A time-off request specifies the dates, leave type, and amount an employee wants to take. It's submitted for approval and, once approved, deducts from their balance.
Good request flows show a live preview of how many days will be used and the resulting balance before submission.
Example: An employee requests May 24–28 as vacation; the system shows it will use 5 days.
In Orvella: Orvella previews the day count, balance impact, and approver before a request is submitted.
