Is It Possible to Screw Up Request for Vacation Time?

Dear Experts, I'd like to request vacation time. However, I am not sure what criteria is important. Can you please guide me? In other words, is it possible to screw up vacation time requests? Here is how our T.A.P. experts answered this question:Q#223 AFTER U know the facts, then decide the action required. If unauth, stealing is stealing. Act accordingly.
