# Attach documents when you request an absence 📎📝

In haddock HR, besides requesting your absences quickly, you can also **attach documents** to justify the request. That way everything stays perfectly recorded! 🚀

When you are requesting an absence (for example, vacation or sick leave), you will see that you have the option to **add an attachment**.

### How does it work?

1. Go to the **"Absences"** section in the main menu.
2. Click the **"+"** button to create a new request.
3. Fill in your absence details (type, dates, comments...).
4. In the **attachments** section, you can **upload a file** (for example, a medical certificate, an official permission, etc.).
5. Finish by submitting the request so your supervisor can review it.

### 🧠 Remember:

- You can attach medical certificates, authorizations, or any other related document.
- The file will be saved with the absence so your supervisor or administrator can view it when approving or rejecting the request.

That way everything is faster, more transparent, and much more professional! ✨
