Submit absences
Submitting absences by users needs to be enabled first. To help, go to App Configuration> Modules > Resources - only a Jira administrator can access this page.
To add an absence:
Go to the "Absences" page.
Click "Add new" on the right.
Complete:
Name
Start date
End date
Comment (if needed)
To add another absence, check the "Add another" box.
Click "Add" to confirm.
The absence will immediately be visible on the list.
Half-day absences
You can also submit absences for half a day only. To do so, turn on the "Half-day absence in selected days" slider:
Note that entering a date range and selecting a half-day absence will decrease the capacity for each specified day by 50%. This means that half-day will apply to each day of this date range.
