skip tech when marked on leave for auto assign

We assumed when a tech marked themselves on leave that the auto assign would skip the tech for that day, it appears it does not or we are doing it wrong. Is there a way for techs just to put in their leave, NOT indicate a backup tech, and auto assign skip that tech? We woudl prefer to not have to remove them from round robin every day they leave and add them back in after
