Time off and absences
Filing a time-off or vacation request, deciding one, swapping a shift with a colleague and declaring your availability.
Everything an employee asks for from their phone runs through the same mechanism: they file, management decides, and the decision writes into the schedule. Nothing moves on the calendar until someone has ruled.
An approved absence is more than one more line: it removes the shifts it covers and becomes a full schedule day, with its hours. That is what lets pre-payroll see it without anyone keying it in again.
