Hi all,
I like the features of Teams Shifts however it is missing the functionality to track annual leave for individuals for me. I want to create a flow but before i delve into the details I wanted to sense check the idea as I am new to automate and done know what the limits are (I've learnt JS and python so hoping the size of the project is not too much of a reach).
High-level concept
Setup:
1. In Teams Shifts create a time off categories
2. In lists have user ID (MS email needs to be the same as the shifts trigger ID), Hours_Annual_leave
3. I need to look at the user flow for deleting leave
Flow:
-Trigger > update/create, delete time off request
-Action > get user ID
-Var reqHours> get hours requested from shift request
-Var Allowance > sharpoint list user_ID.Hours_Annual_leave
-Var decrementAllowance > Allowance -reqHours
-Var incrementAllowance > Allowance -reqHours
- Switch/conditional > /*to determine the type of time off request*/
Case ADD :
-condition> if (decrimentAllowance>=0) post adaptive card for the user to continue and show remaining hours else reject request and post message with reason.
-Response from adaptive card
- Switch >
Case CONTINUE: Update users holiday allowance in Sharepoint lists & notify mgr ready to approve (if rejected by mgr it will need another flow to update the Sharepoint list with old values)
Case CANCEL: Reject leave and post message of confirmation.
Case: DELETE:
-Action update list
-Action delete a Time Off instance
-Action post confirmation to user
-Action notify mgr
