The default flow for absence request is that, once the request has been made, the absence is automatically added to the scheduled member's calendar.
However, Approval and Processing steps can be added to that flow at different moments.
Individual absence categories can have different approval and processing flow, as needed.
Approval
Absence approval can be added to the process with the goal of having the group planner (or anybody else selected by the planner) approving absence requests that come through PetalMD.
By default, a scheduled member with the permission to approve absence request will see his or her requests automatically approved. This behaviour can be changed by the support team on request.
Please contact the support team to add a approval step to the absence request flow.

Processing
A Processing step can be added to the absence request flow. This step can be used as an action item by administrative staff who might need to enter absences in an external system (EMR, ERP, etc.)
The processing step can be added in different location in the absence request flow (see below).
Please contact the support team to add a processing step to the absence request flow.
