My requests
Ask for time off, a schedule change, equipment or anything else, and follow your own requests.
What it's for
Operations → My requests is where you ask the team for something for yourself: time off, a schedule change, equipment, help with a payroll question, or anything else. Every staff role has this page. As an administrator you review other people's requests, but your own requests must be decided by someone else.
Before you start
- You're signed in as an Administrator.
- Another reviewer exists to decide your request: a manager or another administrator.
- No requests yet? The page says No requests yet and "Ask for time off, a schedule change, equipment or anything else here."
Steps
Open My requests
In the menu on the left, click Operations → My requests. The title is My requests: "Time off, schedule changes, equipment and anything else you need from the team."
Use the drop-down to show All requests (shown first), Open, Approved, Denied or Cancelled.
Start a new request
Click New request. A panel called New request opens on the right of the page: "Admins and managers review it. You can edit or cancel it until it is decided."
Fill it in
- Type: Time off (picked first), Schedule change, Equipment, Payroll question or Other.
- Title: a short title, for example "Beach week".
- For Time off and Schedule change only: First day (ET) and Last day (ET). Tick Part of a day only to fill in Hours instead of whole days.

Submit
Click Submit request at the bottom of the panel (or Cancel to close it). The request's own page opens with the status Submitted.
Change or cancel it while it is open

- History on the request page: "Submitted." or, for dated requests, "Submitted for 2026-10-25 → 2026-10-27." Then "Edited the request." or "Cancelled the request." if you change it.
