Declination Management

 

The declination management basically offers a check how many colleagues are already marked absent for a given day before a new absence request is confirmed. The absence threshold can be set here.

 

Example: Let's say the absence threshold is set to 50% based on Group. The group has 10 members, 4 of them have checked vacation on July 5th. A fifth member now uses TeamCal and checks July 5th for vacation as well and clicks Apply. The absence threshold for 50% will be reached so TeamCal will decline the request (a pop-up will be displayed to the user) and send a notification mail according to the settings in the above dialog.

 

Also a date can be set before which all absence requests are declined.
