Direct answer
Choose the notice start date, calculate the expected last working day, then check whether PTO inside the notice period is allowed or changes the last day.
Working formula: Notice plan = notice start date plus notice period, adjusted for PTO policy and final working day.

Notice given: Monday; intended final working day: Friday two weeks later; PTO requested inside notice: yes; confirm approval before relying on the date.

- Mark any PTO dates inside the notice window.
- Check whether PTO is allowed during notice.
- Confirm whether last day means final employed day or final working day.
- Send a written message with the exact final working date.
Mistakes that change the answer
Do not assume PTO is automatically approved after notice.
Do not leave the final working day vague.
Do not treat general resignation etiquette as legal advice.
