Leave management is where your team records when doctors are unavailable, so the scheduler can plan around them. Once a leave request is approved, the doctor is automatically taken out of duty assignments on those dates — no manual edits to the roster needed.

What you can record

Leave requests

Dates a doctor cannot work — annual leave, sick leave, maternity leave, or any other category your organisation defines.

Shifts to avoid

Soft preferences — dates a doctor would rather not work. The scheduler tries to honour these, but they’re not a hard block.

How a leave request moves through the system

1

Submit

An admin or a doctor submits a request with the dates, leave type, and shift.
2

Review

The request lands in Leave Applications with a Pending status, waiting for admin review.
3

Decide

An admin approves or rejects the request. Approved dates are immediately excluded from scheduling.
4

Adjust

Plans change. Pending requests can be cancelled; approved ones can be reversed by an admin.

Leave statuses

Every leave entry sits in one of four statuses:
A leave request only affects scheduling once it’s Approved. Pending and rejected entries are ignored when a roster is generated.
