Additional fields let you ask the employee for extra information when they request time off, such as the destination of a trip or the person who will cover for them. They are set up in each policy and appear on the request form.

• 1. Click Add field.
  2. Enter the Field name: this is the text the employee will see on the form.

  4. If the employee must always fill it in, turn on Required field: they won't be able to send the request without completing it.
  5. Click Create field.
