When an employee cancels a time off request, Bob sends a cancellation email notification to:
-
The employee who cancelled the request
-
The first approver defined in the time off approval flow
This behavior applies even if the approval was completed by a different user (for example, an admin approving the request instead of the employee's manager).
Important to know:
-
Only the first approver in the approval flow receives a cancellation notification.
-
If your approval flow includes additional approvers, they won't receive a cancellation email.
For example:
-
First approver: Team manager
-
Second approver: HR or Finance
If the employee cancels the request, the cancellation email is sent to:
-
The employee
-
The first approver (manager)
The second approver won't receive a cancellation notification.
