In many cases, individuals may need to follow several different calendars to keep track of everything going on within a team. When planning team activities on a calendar, it is common practice to think a month ahead of the current time.
But sometimes it makes sense to step back and see the bigger picture. Other times, you may need to focus on a single week or even a single day. To cater to these specific requirements, OrangeHRM provides a "Leave Calendar", where you can view all the leave requests in one single calendar.
To view the leave calendar, select Leave -> Leave Calendar and the Leave Calendar screen is shown.
When applying for leave, an employee can use the Leave calendar to check the availability of other peers in their division so that leave overlaps with other employees can be avoided. This calendar helps avoid multiple leave requests on the same day in the same department.
Search/Filter Leave Calendar:
Admin or Supervisors can filter or search the leave calendar using the below criteria options which are located at the top of the leave calendar. Select your criteria and click View.

The calendar will show the monthly view by default but can be changed to the yearly and weekly view if required. Please note that the yearly view can be generated for a single employee only.
To see details regarding the specific leave request, the admin can hover over the desired leave request to see further details.
