Hi there, kfriel1. 

Managers can be notified when an employee requests time off, as long as the settings are correctly configured in QuickBooks Time.


Managers can choose to receive notifications for time-off requests via Web, Email, or Mobile. Here’s how to configure these notifications:
 

  1. Open Company Settings.
  2. Select Notifications.
  3. Under the Time Off section, choose your preferred notification method (e.g., Web, Email, or Mobile) by ticking the appropriate box.
     

Make sure that the time-off management feature is set up to allow employees to submit time-off requests for approval. Below are the steps:
 

  1. Open the All Apps menu and select Overview.
  2. Click Go to Classic QuickBooks Time.
  3. Go to Company Settings and select Time Options.
  4. Choose Time Off from the menu.
  5. Check the box for Approval Required to ensure managers must approve employee time-off requests.
     

If you have follow-up questions, don’t hesitate to revisit this thread.
