What is Manage LOA?
Manage LOA shows your leave of absence (LOA) status for the server you're moderating. Use it to check an active or pending LOA, or to request time away.
LOA Overview
Click Manage LOA in the Toolbox. The overview shows:
| Section | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Active LOA | Your current or upcoming LOA and when it ends |
| Pending LOA | A request waiting for review and when you submitted it |
| Recent LOAs | Your last 3 ended, denied or cancelled LOAs |
Click View full LOA page to request or manage an LOA.
Requesting an LOA
- Open the LOA page
Click View full LOA page, or select Manage LOA from the ⋮ menu next to your name.
- Fill in the request
Enter a Reason, choose whether it starts on approval or on a future date, then pick an End Date.
- Submit
Click Submit request. Your server's management will review it.
Your server may require a reason or end date, and may set a minimum and maximum length.
Managing an LOA
Once your LOA is approved, the LOA page lets you:
| Option | What it does |
|---|---|
| Start LOA now | Start an approved future LOA early |
| Edit reason | Change your LOA's reason |
| Request extension | Ask for a later end date |
| End LOA | End your LOA early |
| Cancel request | Withdraw a pending request |
If your server turns on Disallow Shifts on Leave of Absence, you can't start shifts while your LOA is active.
