# View all absence requests as an administrator

To see the absences of a specific group, you normally need to be assigned as the **supervisor of that group**.

However, as an **administrator** you can also see the absence requests of **all employees**, even if you are not their group's supervisor.

To do this:

1. Go to the **Absences** menu.
2. Click **Approve absences**.
3. At the top of the screen, click **View all requests**.

When this option is enabled, **all company absence requests** will be shown, regardless of the group or assigned supervisor.
