Mandatory Attachment Conditional on Time Off Duration

Last Updated: February 27, 2025

Overview:

We’ve added a new layer of flexibility to time-off requests! Now, you can set conditions for when attachments are required based on the duration of the time off.

Toggling Attachment Required On or Off - Add Time off Type

• Go to Settings > Time Off > Time Off Type > Add Time Off Type > Toggle Yes or No for Attachment Required
• You can also set whether attachments are mandatory conditional on the duration of time off request. 

• When Attachment Required = No - Users can apply for time off without needing to attach any attachments
  
  

• When Attachment Required = Yes with Number of Days = 0 or more - Users will always need to attach attachments to their time off requests

• When Attachment Required = Yes with Number of Days = 3 or more - Users will need to submit attachments when applying for time off duration 3 days or more. They will not need to submit any attachments if the time off duration is less than 3 days. 

Example of User Applying Time Off > 3 days

• The example below shows when an employee attempts to submit time off for 4 days and clicks Submit, they are prompted with the error message and indication that attachments are required

• When the employee uploads an attachment i.e. Travel Itinerary and clicks Submit, the application is successful

Toggling Attachment Required On or Off - Existing Time Off Types

• All existing time off types where Attachments Required were already set to Yes, will have Number of days set to 0 or more days by default.
• Users will need to change the setting by editing existing time off types
• Go to Settings > Time Off > Time Off Type > Click on Pencil Icon of the specific time off type
