The Employee Self Service (ESS) Leave Requests application system has been upgraded to improve ease of use and have fewer steps to submit or delete a leave request.
As part of the improved features:
- The Leave Request screen remains open immediately after the submission of the initial request to allow users to submit additional requests.
- The personal calendar can be used to select a date, which automatically fills both the ‘Start Date’ and ‘Through’ fields.
- Fewer steps are needed to delete a leave request.
- The overview list of submitted requests is updated in real-time, which give the user instant and accurate status information.
- The Review and Submit to Approver button is now above the required data area.
- The colors on the personal calendar have been changed to provide a better contrast between different entries and their approval status. The legend titles also have been improved.
- The ‘Start Time’ and ‘Through’ fields now allow abbreviated entries. For example, ‘9’ will automatically converted to ’09:00′ and ‘810’ to ’08:10.’
Thank you! I appreciate the improvements.
