Schedule time off

Booking time off in Float blocks your schedule so teammates are aware that they shouldn't allocate work for you, ensuring realistic project planning.

The ability to schedule or request time off depends on your access rights and your team settings. If your access rights include editing permissions, you can book or request time off for yourself. Your team's Account Owner and the Admins have the option to set time off approvals for your team. If enabled, once you submit a request, your manager will need to approve it. If the time off approval is disabled, you can schedule the time off directly.

To book time off in Float, select a date on the Schedule to bring up the scheduling menu and navigate to the Time off tab. Select the time off type, set the duration (hours per day or specific time), and create or request time off. Once you select the time off type, you will see the remaining balance.

If approvals are enabled, you’ll see who your request is sent to, and the time off will appear as tentative until approved. Once confirmed, it’s locked into your Schedule. Click on a time off entry to view, edit, or delete it.
