Example: Create a My Tasks Filter to Share with Others

Global Modern Services (GMS) recently changed their policy around requesting time off by asking that employees enter:
  • Days as the value when taking 1 or more days off.
  • Hours when taking less than 1 full day off.
Employees should follow this guidance so that HR Administrators can accurately report on how much time off employees are requesting.
As an HR Administrator, you want to help employees submit time off requests correctly. You create a My Tasks filter to display requests that:
  • Are greater than 8.
  • Use hours as the value.
This filter identifies incorrectly submitted requests. You want to share this filter with all managers and their managers to ensure that approvers send back requests that don't adhere to the new guidelines.
