How to delete a leave request

How to delete a leave request#

For: Manager | Admin You’ll need: A leave request with status ‚Pending‘ or ‚Declined‘. Confirmed and revoked requests cannot be deleted.

You’ll hard-delete a request that was never approved — clearing it from the list entirely instead of leaving a status-stamped row behind.

Open the request#

  1. In the left sidebar, go to Company → Leave requests.

  2. Click the row of the request you want to delete.

Delete#

  1. Click ‚Delete‘ in the top-right.

  2. In the confirm dialog, click ‚Delete leave request‘.

Verify it worked#

The request is gone from the list. A toast confirms the delete. No ledger row is written — there were no balance changes to undo.

Warnung

‚Confirmed‘ and ‚Revoked‘ requests are kept for audit and cannot be deleted. To reverse a confirmed request, use How to revoke a leave request — the row stays in the list with a ‚Revoked‘ badge so the history is preserved.
