What is time off?
Time off is any time an employee or contractor is not working.
In Runn, you can create full-day or partial-day time off. During full-day scheduled leave, a person’s available hours are set to 0, and they will appear as unavailable on the Project and People Planners for those days. For partial-day scheduled leave, capacity and utilization will be adjusted, but assignments can still be scheduled.
If you would like to create half-day (partial) time off, please check out this help article.
There are four types of time off in Runn:
Full-day Scheduled leave | Partial Scheduled leave | Public holiday | Rostered day off |
Scheduled leaves are usually annual PTO or sick leave. | A partial scheduled leave is indicated by a yellow background. | Public Holidays are scheduled based on a person's Holiday Group. | Rostered days off are managed from a person's employment contract.

Impact on Project Scheduled Hours
When adding a full-day scheduled leave, a public holiday or a rostered day off over an existing assignment, the assignment hours will be reduced automatically.
If the scheduled leave is then removed, the assignment hours will be added back automatically:
When the assignment is moved forward or backward, it will automatically calculate the assignment hours depending on whether it overlaps with any time offs:
Similarly, if a project is rescheduled, the project scheduled hours will be added or removed depending on the whether the new assignments overlap with any full-day time offs.
⚠️ The assignment hours will NOT be automatically reduced if you are adding a partial scheduled leave.
Time Off Impact Notifications
If you want to be notified when a scheduled leave is added to people on your projects, reducing the scheduled hours, you can turn on Time Off Notifications.
Time off and Utilization % on People Planner
Time off reduces a person's effective capacity and so affects the utilization %.
