How To Delete Time Off As Admin Or Office Manager

In this article, we'll discuss how to delete time off as an Admin or Office Manager with permissions enabled to delete time off. While time off can be viewed on the main Scheduler with the time off filter enabled, time off will need to be deleted directly from the Company Time Off Calendar. It's not possible to edit time off after it's been approved; it's only possible to delete it.


Admins have permission to delete time off as a locked enabled permission. Office Managers need this permission enabled in order to delete time off:

To delete time off, first, click the dropdown to the right of the Scheduler:

Schedule Dropdown option

Then, click on the Time Off option:

Scheduler > Time Off option

Then click directly on any time off that you want to delete. Depending on the type of time off, the deletion options will differ:

Changing Your Time Off/Time Available Method

In the settings tab of the Company Time Off Calendar, you are able to select which method you want users to add their time off or time available. The default method set is for a user to add their "Time Off". The other option is for the user to add their "Time Available"Only one setting (Time Off or Time Available) can be used at one time.
