Book other events in Evo Navigator

Request time away for appointments or training, or record a day you work from home.

Evo Navigator is the home screen you see when you log in to Access Evo. Quick Actions are shortcuts on Evo Navigator that each open a short form for a common task, so you don't need to open another part of the system.

You can use the Book Other Events quick action to request leave that isn't holiday, such as a medical appointment, bereavement leave, jury duty or training. You can also record working events, such as working from home, working in the office or a business trip. Your manager receives each request for approval. Every employee can use Book Other Events, and you don't need any extra permissions.


Reasons you can book

Your organisation sets the list of reasons you can book, so yours can differ from these examples:

  • Bereavement.

  • Compassionate Leave.

  • Dentist.

  • Funeral Leave.

  • Hospital Appointment.

  • Jury Duty.

  • Medical Appointment.

  • Office Work.

  • Paternity Leave.

  • Study Leave.

  • Training.

  • Travel.

  • Work from Home.

📌 Note: If you can't find the right reason for your event, contact your Human Resources (HR) team.


Show Book Other Events on Evo Navigator

Book Other Events appears on Evo Navigator by default. If you can't see it, you can add it again from Quick Actions Preferences:

  1. Click Quick Actions Preferences in the Quick Actions area of Evo Navigator.

  2. Enter Book Other Events in the Search bar, or select PeopleHR in the product filter.

  3. Select Book Other Events to add it to your Quick Actions.


Book whole days

To book an event that lasts one or more full days, watch the video or follow the steps below:

  1. Click Book Other Events in the Quick Actions area.

  2. Select a reason in the Reason list.

  3. Select Days under Duration type.

  4. Select the first and last day of the event in the Start date and End date fields.

  5. Click Save.

The Duration field works out the number of days from your dates. You can add a note in the Comments field before you save.


Book a number of hours

For an event that only takes part of a day, open the Book Other Events form and select a reason, then:

  1. Select Hours under Duration type.

  2. Select the date of the event in the Date field.

  3. Select the start and end times in the From and To fields.

  4. Click Save.

The Total Duration field works out the hours and minutes from your times.


After you book

Your manager receives the request, reviews it and tells you their decision. You don't need to do anything else.

📌 Note: Your manager still decides whether to approve each request.
