Custom fields used by Vacation Manager

  • Chart - displays statistics in pie chart with selected and available vacation days.

  • Start/End date pickers - date pickers where user can select start and end dates of absence. These fields are used internally for calculating used days.

  • Supervisor field - single user picker with supervisor selected by reporter. Supervisor will be able to review and accept vacation request. After manually editing this field you must configure this field to filter only users from Supervisors group.

  • Substitute person - single user picker, contains information about coverage person on reporter's absence.

  • Used vacation days - number field with vacation days used by vacation request. This field is automatically calculated.

Changing field and migrating data in existing Vacation Documents

 How to get to this stage is presented here (point 4)

When editing field you have option to migrate data from existing vacation documents between old and new field. When checked as "Yes" (1), all data from old field in Vacation Documents (Issues created in Vacation Manager project) will be copied to a newly selected field.

Warning: This operation will overwrite all existing data in newly selected custom field in every Vacation Document.
