The page contains two main tabs:
- List Tab – Displays all separation requests (default view).

Each tab contains tables, filters, and action buttons for easy tracking and management.

+ Request Button
Click + Request to open a popup and submit a new employee separation request.
Step 1: Select Employee
Select the employee from the Employee dropdown.

Warning 1: If a separation request for the selected employee already exists, the system displays: “Resignation request for the particular employee already exists.”

Warning 2: If no notice period is assigned to the employee, the message appears: “Notice period for this employee has not been specified.”
