Create a time-off bid

In an open time-off bid, employees in an organization and its suborganizations can bid for their vacation preferences.

Consider using a specific time off type (activity Core component of both schedules and time records in Workforce Management (WFM). When an employee performs any kind of work, activities specify the scheduled work and capture employee adherence to their schedule.) without auto processing for Time Off Bidding. This approach allows you to use auto processing for existing time off types.
