It would be beneficial to introduce a function within the Entitlements – Leave Request system that allows users to edit the leave type after a request has been submitted, rather than only being able to amend the dates.
Currently, if the incorrect leave type is selected when submitting a leave request, or circumstances change and a different leave type is required, the only option is to cancel the existing request and submit a new one.
Allowing users to update the leave type via the existing Edit function would make the process more efficient, reduce unnecessary cancellations and resubmissions, and minimise the risk of errors or duplicate requests.
This enhancement would provide greater flexibility when managing leave requests and improve the overall user experience.
