Submit an Absence Awaiting Reason (AAR) for an employee
The AAR can be used by People Managers, in the instance that an employee calls in sick or takes an unplanned absence, as an absence placeholder against the employee’s time off record.
Entering an AAR on behalf on your employee will trigger up to 3 reminder notifications to the employee, one at the time the request is entered, one after 7 days and finally one after 14 days. If after 14 days the employee has not updated the AAR with the correct information and submitted or made specific alternate arrangements with yourself and the payroll team, sick leave without pay will be applied.
Complete the following steps to submit an AAR for an employee.
From the home page under Quick Actions click the Manage My Team tile.
Select the employee, click Actions, then Manage Leave of Absence.
Click Create Absence.
Select from the Time Type drop down list – Absent Awaiting Reason, select
start and end date including time, add comment if applicable. For part day
absences select the end of shift or start of shift. Submit the request.
Your employee will receive up to 3 email notifications, they must edit the AAR and select the correct time off type and submit.
