Currently Employees are able to update their working location using work status. This status can be edited by the Employee and displays on the homepage of Admin / HR users, the Employee card, and via Directory.
However, you may want to display an Employee's current working status on the calendar. To do this you'll need to create a new time off type for your options, meaning, In Office / Working from Home. This time off type can then be 'booked' to display the working location on the calendar.
Your Time off Type should include the following settings:
- Deduct from employee allowance - No
- Paid - Yes
- Authorised - Yes
- Balance able to be carried over - No
- Continue to accrue whilst booked - Yes
- Viewable of public calendar - Yes fully visible
- Bookable by employees - (This will depend on whether you would like Employees to be able to add the entry to the calendar themselves)
- Classify as out of office - No
Usually time off requests will require approval however you may choose to have this type be auto-approved. To achieve this you'll need to set up a Time off Approval workflow that is notify only and have it trigger for these specific time off types.
