Benefits of Leave Calendars • Do not need VPN or web proxy • New capability: • Repeating events, e.g. every other Friday off • Partial days, e.g. come in late or leave early • Most important reason is that leave calendar is integrated with your personal calendar. • 1 click: there when you need it, gone when you don’t

Transition Each division and office will set its transition date INS adopts new calendars as of 1 March 2012 Old system will be shut off in June
