For customers of our PTO module.


In Built, you can choose whether a policy allows employees to request time off in 1-Minute Intervals, 15-Minutes Intervals, 30-Minute Intervals, 1-Hour Intervals, 2-Hour Intervals, Half-Day Intervals, or Full-Day Intervals.

To set a policy’s time off request interval:

  1. Click your company name at the top of the main navigation, then click Company Settings.

  2. Click the Paid Time Off tab.

  3. Click the name of the PTO Policy you want to set the interval for.

  4. Locate the question, What time interval are time off requests submitted in? Click the dropdown to select the desired option.

    Note: If your account has one or more "overnight" schedules—where a shift starts on one evening and ends the following day—the system won't allow you to choose the half-day PTO request option. The system cannot calculate the appropriate hours for a half day when the schedule crosses dates.

  5. Click Save. When people submit a PTO request, they will be presented with the appropriate options based on your chosen setting.

Please contact our customer success team for additional assistance.
