What level of authority is assigned to an approver’s role?

In Day Off, an approver has a decision making role within the leave approval workflow, but their authority is limited based on assigned permissions.

Authority

An approver can:

  • Approve or reject leave request
  • Receive and review requests submitted by assigned employees
  • Move requests forward in the approval workflow

In each step, only one approver’s action is required to proceed.

Scope of Authority

An approver’s authority is limited to:

  • The employees they are assigned to approve for
  • The approval step they are part of (Step 1 or Step 2)

They do not have global control over all employees unless explicitly granted additional permissions.

Additional Access (If Enabled)

Depending on role permissions, an approver may also:

  • View employee profiles
  • Check leave balances
  • Review request history
  • Access team information, policies, and schedules
