ARTICLE: Parent - How to Create Recurring Leave – Web


The recurring leave function is available within the 'Create Leave Requests' process, and allows a leave item to be created once, and then have it auto recur (submit itself) at regular intervals, this is perfect for weekly sport training, weekend sport, or after school study clubs, etc

Notes
NOTE: The recurring leave function is managed by your school. If you encounter any issues, please speak with your school first.

Log into your Reach web portal account and scroll down to 'Current Leave Requests'.



Here we can see there is a current Pending item for Angela, we can use this item to update and add the recur setting.
Alternatively you can click the green Create button to start a fresh item. The 'Leave Details' page provides all that is required to create a new item.

In the example below, with details already added, we can see Angela is going Bike Riding, Saturday morning @10am, for 2 hours, the transport is set to walking, as she only needs to walk to the equipment storage facility, the Host is set to 'Not Necessary', and the Destination is 'Regents Park Cycle-Way. This is also added in General Notes with a more details about the regular Bike Riding group.



The next step down we can see Recursion and Late Meal - these have not been set.  
Click on the Recursion button, and select 'Uses Pattern' from the small drop-down menu.
This opens the Recursion Pattern section to create the setting you require.



In this example we will select 'Every', as we require the request to Auto-Recur every week.
This weekly activity is every Saturday morning, so we can select Saturday.



The image here shows that 'Every' is selected, and 'Saturday' is selected.
The next step is 'Until Date', the drop-down menu provides two options, to select a date to complete, or a number of times (weeks).
 - DATE - this option, click on the box, the calendar appears, select your required date
 - X TIMES - this option, a box appears, enter the number of times, or use the up/down arrows

Once complete, please be sure to check all details are correct within the Leave Request details and the Recurrence details.
When correct, click Save, and your Leave Request for the one date occurrence has been submitted.
Based on your Recurrence setting for this item, a Leave Request will auto submit each week for the Saturday event.
Nothing will show in your Reach login, until that next item auto-submits, at that point you can check it if you wish.


Notes
Note: Some Leave Types, may not have the recurring option available. These are created and managed by your school.  
Alert
NOTE: Recurring leave items are limited to no more than 60 in a series. To enter a highly number, a pop-up will inform of this limit.
