    Hi @mohamed,

     

    What is the type of the Day, Days, and Email column in your sharepoint list?

     

    I have made a test on my side to create the lists as yours, and the Day, Days column is of type number, the Email column is of type Person or Group don't allow multiple selections.

    And I couldn't create a "Name" column in the lists, so I create a "Name " column in the lists.

     

    The Request list as screenshot below:

    I have created a flow as below:

    The expression in the Days column as below:

    sub(items('Apply_to_each')?['Days'],triggerBody()?['Day'])

    When an item is created in the Leave request column as below:

    If the Request is approved, the flow would run successfully as below:

    The Request list would be updated as below:
