Create a clear record when leave begins
When Workday records a new leave of absence, Notis can create an internal Drive note with the available record details and your follow-up guidance.

Questions about this workflow
Does this workflow track later leave changes?

Can the document be kept private?
Choose a Drive location whose permissions are limited to authorized HR staff, and ensure the connected account has appropriate access.
