Questions about sequence diagram templates
What is a leave request sequence diagram?
It's a UML sequence diagram that shows the time‑ordered interactions between an employee, their manager, and the HR system during a leave request. It helps visualize the approval workflow.
How do I create my own leave request sequence diagram?
Just describe your flow in plain text using the generator on this page. For example: 'Employee submits leave → Manager reviews → If approved, HR updates records.' The tool turns that description into a polished diagram instantly.
Can I customize the examples in the gallery?
Absolutely! Each example is a template. Click on any one, edit the text, and the diagram updates in real time. You can add new actors, change messages, or include conditions.
What leave types are covered?
The gallery includes sick leave, annual leave, parental leave, and unpaid leave. But you can model any type—the sequence pattern is the core focus.
