As a manager, booking time off for an employee is a very simple process.   

1. Go to:

Time and Attendance -> Timeoff

2. Select 'Add' below the timeoff list

3. Select the employee's name from the drop-down list 

4. Expand the relevant time off type, input the time off details and select submit - as you would a normal time off request. 

A green banner will then confirm a successful submission and the time off will be allocated to the employee. 

Note: Adding time off using this method will not require approval in the same way that a request would unless you are using a custom workflow with the "Workflow applies to manager/approver actions?" set to "Manager adding on behalf of employee" or "Both", this will be added immediately to the employee file.
