WX provides a flexible set of vacation and absence booking capabilities, combined in a single process. By default, the process is called Time Off, but your administrators can rename it as absence, vacation, or something else.
When booking an absence, you select the type of absence from a list of reasons that can include planned vacation, PTO, sickness, parental leave, compassionate leave, jury duty, and many others - the list is configurable to match the needs and terminology of your organization.
The time off summary panel on the WX homepage provides an overview of your vacation balance and upcoming time off. Go to the Time Off process in your organization to view your absence calendar and book an absence.
