If you as a manager has received an approval request for a sickness record for an employee, they will have two options in actioning this request:

The Close Sickness option will ask for the manager to input the last working day of the sickness and then close the record. When closed you will see the record listed in the employee's sickness records with a status of Closed.

The discard option will reject the sickness request but will need a last working day to be entered, if this is going to be rejected, we recommend setting this to be the first day of the sickness record. When discarded, you will see the record listed in the employee's sickness records with a status of rejected.
