Vacation/sick leave requests can now be made for 2012

Effective immediately, users of Firefly’s Employee Self Service (ESS) Create Leave Request process can request vacation or sick leave for the calendar year 2012.

Employees currently can only request up to 40 hours for vacation and 40 hours sick leave into 2012.

Please note, when you view your remainder balance, the information will not reflect your correct balances.

Users may receive warnings regarding leave balances if they request vacation and sick leave for 2012 now.

This is because your balance will not reflect any requests submitted for 2012 until the carry forward balance is moved to the new year, which will be done in January.

Also the warning messages (see photo) are legitimate because the leave balances are not yet recognized in 2012. These messages will not impact the processing of your request.

For those not participating, the Create Leave Request process allows an employee to submit a leave request to a designated approver. The employee receives an email notification when the leave is approved or rejected; if approved, the request is posted to SAP. Once approved, the employee and the approver are able to add the requested leave to their Lotus Notes calendar.

For questions about the Firefly Leave Request process, contact the UNMC Payroll office at 402-559-7460 or the Firefly/SAP Helpdesk at 402-559-5880.
