3) If your employer has enabled functionality allowing you to request leave through your self service portal, to request leave, select 'Request Leave', either on your dashboard or when accessing the full calendar.

4) Enter in the Dates in the 'From' and 'To' fields, Type of Leave, and whether the leave is for a full day or half day. Enter any additional information regarding the leave, if required. The number of days selected in the date range for the request will show.
