My Auctions

Auctions provide the ability to bid on items, such as time-off, that you want based on your preferences. For the active auctions on your My Auctions tile, you can submit bids within the designated timeframe of the auction and your requests are considered based on criteria such as seniority, fairness, availability, and accrual balances and policies.

Note: The My Auctions tile needs to be configured and added to the your home page. See the Auctions Application Configuration Guide.
