Allow Request Time off with partial day book-ends

Time off can be submitted currently for blocks of full days, or a single partial day.

The ability to submit a multi-day time off request starting with a partial day (or multi-day time off followed by a partial day) would be useful. e.g. Bob wants to take a half-day on Friday, and remain off until the following Wednesday. He would like to do this with a single time-off request.

Why should we implement this

The current system makes it difficult for schedulers with shift workers. An employee may have booked 'Monday' off, but the employee is still working Sunday nightshift, which overlaps with several hours on Monday morning. Booking 'Monday' off for the employee means taking the Monday nightshift off.

 

If the employee has booked the day off, and the scheduler adds a shift which overlaps with part of the day - they (the scheduler) should have the ability to proceed with the shift allocation, which if pushed through, should automatically edit the existing time-off booking. Alternatively, if when the scheduler tries to add a shift that overlaps with an existing time-off booking, it could open a dialog window with the time-off booking, and allow the scheduler to edit the time-off on-the-fly.
