2. There are two ways to add time off. You can use Endear AI to help generate your time off, or you can add your time off manually. We recommend using Endear AI, so we'll go over that option first.

Don't worry, you will have a chance to review and adjust your time off before saving. Some examples of what you can input are included below the text box, and if any of them are a good fit for your needs, select the + to add them into the text box.

2b. Manually add time off: To add time off manually, select that option select Add block. Input your time off including the date range and times.
