Self-service and manager self-service pages have a different look and feel but the
processes are like they are today
No Leave Taken will be entered and approved on its own pages instead of being part
of absence as it is now
Employees can key absence requests up to 12 months in advance
Forecasting will be implemented for absence requests, allowing employees to have a
better idea of what their balance will look like in the future
Comments for certain absence types are not required by the system as they are now;
however, CMA will still require comments for these types of absences (e.g. sick leave
for family)
The absence process will run twice daily, and the monthly calendar will be closed
on the 5th working day of the month, which means updated balances will be posted sooner
