What is "Staff Lookup"?

The Leaves Calendar Staff Lookup is a method by which an administrative supervisor can access an employee's leaves data. Only an administrative supervisor or "authorized viewer" listed in an employee's Leaves Profile can access his/her data.

Access is achieved by entering the NetID of the selected employee in the box to the right of the "Begin Staff Lookup for NetID:" button near the bottom of the Main Menu and then clicking on that button.

The supervisor will then be returned to the Leaves Calendar Main Menu page
AS IF THE SUPERVISOR WERE THE SELECTED EMPLOYEE.

In effect, the supervisor has entered a computer session AS IF s/he were the employee, and then uses the same programs (links) to view and/or modify the employee's leave data as the employee would use.

There are two differences:

The supervisor can modify data in "Locked" months.
An e-mail message will be sent to an employee every time his/her supervisor makes a change to the employee's recorded leaves unless the employee's Leaves Profile indicates that e-mail should not be sent.

When Does It All End?

The supervisor remains in this computer session, emulating the employee, until one of three actions take place:

The supervisor exits the entire web browser program.
The supervisor clicks the "End Staff Lookup Session" button at the bottom of the Main Menu.
The supervisor successfully begins another lookup session for a different employee.
