Dim tor As New TAeTimeOffRequest()
 
tor.BenefitID = 1
' use getBenefitsSimple() method if you do not know the Benefit ID
 
tor.EmpID = "1234"
' using employee with ID 1234
 
tor.RequestTimeOffTypeEnum = TRequestTimeOffTypeEnum.rtoOneDay
tor.Hours = 480
' this field contains total minutes (hours * 60)
 
tor.StartDate = DateTime.Now.AddDays(7).ToString("yyyy-MM-dd")
' hard code date if known
 
Try
    ws.submitTimeOffRequest(tor)
Catch ex As Exception
    MessageBox.Show(ex.Message)
End Try

Remarks

  • Use getBenefitsSimple to retrieve a list of benefit values if needed
  • Need to set either EmpID or Filekey value within the TAeTimeOffRequest structure
  • Not supplying a StartDate will default it to 12/30/99
  • Not supplying a BenefitID will default it to zero

Possible Errors

  • Invalid filekey and/or employee ID
