Important Considerations

You can typically delete leave requests that are:
  • Pending approval
  • Already approved (depending on company policy)
  • Rejected requests (for cleanup purposes)
Deleting a leave request may trigger notifications to:
  • Your manager or approvers
  • Team members who were notified of your absence
  • Colleagues assigned as substitutes
If you have calendar integration enabled, deleting the request will also remove the associated calendar events.
If you need to modify a leave request instead of deleting it, consider canceling the current request and submitting a new one with the updated details.
