Absence Management

About Absence Management Self-Service (AMSS)

​Absence Management is an online process for reporting absences through PeopleSoft.  Employees can access their vacation, sick, personal holiday, and CTO leave balances online.

Employee Self-Service

You may report your absences at any time.  All absences for the previous pay period must be reported by the 5th of the month. Absences will be reviewed by a department Timekeeper (if designated) and approved by the employee's manager electronically.

Timekeepers

The main function of a Timekeeper is to review employee-entered absences and make corrections if necessary. Timekeepers have the ability to enter absences on behalf of an employee in their department. Absences entered by Timekeepers are automatically updated to a “Reviewed” status pending Manager approval.​

Approvers

Managers approve absences which have been entered by employees and reviewed by Timekeepers (if designated). All absences for the previous pay period must be approved by the 10th of the month. Approvers may also enter an absence on an employee’s behalf in the event that the employee or Timekeeper is unable to do so. Absences entered by Approvers are automatically updated to an “Approved” status.
