Does what recording a sick day on behalf of a team member does. Open to the line manager, team lead, Admins and Super Admins. The sick leave is approved automatically and the line manager or team lead is notified. Past sick days can be recorded the same way. By default you confirm each call; you can switch that off for this tool.
