Indicate on a Calendar that a Caregiver is on Vacation

To indicate Vacation (or similar time off, paid or non-paid) you can create non-visit schedules on the Caregiver's calendar to block out this time for scheduling, and can also allow this time to be run through Payroll for paid time off.

Pre-Requisites:

Create a new Call Type (Service) called "Vacation". Edit the new Call Type in the Agency Office Module and set the status to "Unavailable". 

Create appropriate Payroll Rates on the Caregiver, or default rates at the Agency Office level for the new call type, or ensure that there is a default hourly rate that is correct.

Create an Office-level Authorization in the Agency Office Module for the new Call Type, since these schedules will be non-visit. The authorization's Hour Code should be set to either "Payroll Only" or "No Bill, No Pay" depending on whether this is paid or non-paid time off.

Create the Schedule(s):

Open the Caregiver's calendar and select the first day to create a vacation schedule.

Right click on the day in the calendar and choose "Add a non-visit schedule" from the context menu to create a schedule with the office as the "client".

Choose the vacation authorization and set the time and length of the schedule.

Save.

If the caregiver is off for multiple days, you can copy and paste the schedule into multiple days. When the new schedules are created, you will be prompted to automatically remove the caregiver from any existing schedules that conflict with the new vacation schedules.
