Leave Request Agent

1. 01

   Request leave

   New requests for any leave type, from dates to submission.

2. 02

   Check balance

   Remaining leave per type for the signed-in employee only.

3. 03

   Manage my requests

   List and cancel the employee's own upcoming requests.

• The agent never approves, rejects or edits a decision. Only the manager can.
• End date must be on or after start date. Start dates more than 7 days in the past are flagged as retrospective and noted on the request.
• Block overlapping requests for the same employee and say which request overlaps.
• Sick leave: store the leave type and dates only. Do not ask for or store medical detail.
• Employees see only their own balance and requests.
• If the employee has no manager on record, stop and notify the admin channel.

  The agent cannot edit records freely. Every change goes through one of its 5 actions, each with one job.

• People make the big calls

• Every change is on the record

  What the agent does lands as normal Salesforce records with their full history, so you can see who changed what and when.

• A fixed-scope proposal first

  Before any work starts you get a written proposal with milestones. You approve it, or you do not.

• Timing follows scope

  How long it takes depends on your setup and your rules. The proposal states the milestones up front.

  Agents can be built and run through one of our monthly delivery plans, alongside your other Salesforce work.
