    Spreadsheet for allowing employees to input vacation leave/show employee denial of leave

    I am trying to create a spreadsheet for employees for taking summer vacation
    Employees are ranked by seniority.
    Only so many employees can be given vacation on a specific date.

    I want to have the ability so that all employees can go in and request certain dates. (I've created a calendar).

    What I'm trying to figure out if we are allowing 4 people vacation, and 8 people request the day that the people with the lower seniority essentially get bumped. Or that within the cell it shows a different colour or something to show that it is refused.

    Don't know if that makes sense. Can provide additional information if you need.

    Welcome to the Forum dZilla.

    Yes additional information is good.

    To best describe or illustrate your problem you would be better off attaching a "dummy" workbook
    without sensitive data. The workbook should contain the same structure and some dummy data of the
    same type as the type you have in your real workbook - so, if a cell contains numbers & letters in this
    format abc-123 then that should be reflected in the dummy workbook.

    Please do not upload pictures. Many of us cannot read them and it saves having to retype data.

    To attach a file to your post,
    click advanced (next to quick post),
    scroll down until you see "manage file",
    click that and select "add files" (top right corner).
    click "select files" find your file, click "open" click "upload" click 'done" bottom right. click "submit reply"

    Once the upload is completed the file name will appear below the input boxes in the reply window.

    Re: My first post and perhaps a difficult question

    Hope this helps?

    I've taken the spreadsheet from something that I've found online, so didn't create it myself.

    Essentially I'll be locking the portion where the employee's names & seniority is so that can't be modified.

    But I'd like to have it so

    That if the top 4 employees request a certain day off, that the 5th employee that requests the day off will be marked on the calendar but marked as denied. And the subsequent one as third denied (with whatever colour coding we decide).

    I'd then want a total of employee's that have requested days off that day, and ones that have been denied. Then as shown a tally at the end of the month for the number of days an employee has requested off.

    I would then create a new spreadsheet for each month.

    As Pepe Le Mokko said:
    Your post does not comply with Rule 1 of our Forum RULES. Your post title should accurately and concisely describe your problem, not your anticipated solution.

    Use terms appropriate to a Google search. Poor thread titles, like Please Help, Urgent, Need Help, Formula Problem, Code Problem, and Need Advice will be addressed according to the OP's experience in the forum: If you have less than 10 posts, expect (and respond to) a request to change your thread title. If you have 10 or more posts, expect your post to be locked, so you can start a new thread with an appropriate title.

    To change a Title go to your first post, click EDIT then Go Advanced and change your title, if 2 days have passed ask a moderator to do it for you.

    (This thread should receive no further responses until this moderation request is fulfilled, as per Forum Rule 7)
