PTO Balance

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

Hey there, 

I was able to create a work flow where the agent request PTO either ( vacation, personal, sick , or in lieu). The request gets sent out for approval and then they get alerted once approved and the calendar updates. But now I'm trying to create a flow that once the agent logs into the SharePoint they can see a running balance of their PTO Balance. Any ideas on how to do it?

    Do you keep track of the PTO balance in a sharepoint list or something?

     

    The pitfall here would be permissions and people being able to change their own balance since a flow runs with delegated permissions. However I believe this can be circumvented by giving users only read permissions and having a child flow take care of editing the balances since (i believe) child flows do not use delegated permissions but the permission of the creator. 

     

    please share some more details about your situation
