Did you know that you can create employee-based Calendar Events to account for situations when an employee will be absent, for example, or out on leave?
To accomplish this, follow these simple steps:
- On the Calendar screen, under ‘Set-up,’ click ‘Add Event,’ then select ‘Employee Event’.
- Select the employee for which to add the event from the ‘Employee’ drop-down menu.
- Specify the reason for the employee event under the ‘Reason’ drop-down menu.
- If you know there will be an employee covering during this window, select them from the ‘Covering employee’ drop-down menu, or else simply leave this as ‘unassigned’
- Finally, specify the start date and start times, as well as the end date and end times, before pressing ‘Save’ to finalize the employee event.
- Note that there is an option to make employee events recurring by checking the ‘Make recurring’ box, which will bring up options for you to specify which days of the week the recurring event occurs on, whether it is an all day event, as well as start and end dates for which it will be applied.
