You are here: 17吃瓜在线 Finance Communications Unapproved Leave Requests (March 2023)

Memorandum March 28, 2023

Dear 17吃瓜在线 Faculty and Staff,

In preparation for the end of the fiscal year, the Payroll Office is temporarily adjusting the Eagle Service Time Sheet and Leave system to make all leave entries visible going back to July 1, 2022. This will allow all monthly-paid employees and their supervisors to review their leave submissions and ensure that all leave requests have been approved.

Generally, monthly-paid employees and their supervisors are only able to view and approve leave submissions from the previous 50 days.

Employees who have unapproved leave requests going back to July 1, 2022 have leave balances that are overstated (in other words, the leave balance is higher than it should be since the unapproved leave has not been subtracted from the leave balance hours shown in Eagle Service). In this situation, the result could be a negative leave balance. As a reminder, employees may not carry negative leave balances and supervisors should not approve leave for employees with negative balances.

Supervisors should make all necessary approvals for leave requests by April 14, at which time the system will revert to the standard leave submission visibility of 50 days. 聽

Employees and their supervisors can access leave reports and instructions via the by navigating to:
