Leave requests with the rules already applied.
Employees see their balance before they apply, and the request counts working days, skips holidays and shows any loss of pay. Managers approve in one inbox and check the team calendar for clashes.
Know the cost of leave before you ask
The request counts working days, skips weekends and holidays, and shows how much will be paid and how much is loss of pay.
-
Paid and loss-of-pay breakdown Working days are counted for you, and any days beyond the balance are shown as loss of pay.
-
Half-day leave Take the first or second half of a single day.
-
Proof and travel details Attach a PDF or photo when the type needs proof, and note travel abroad and an emergency contact.
-
My requests Track each decision and cancel a request on the web or in the app.
Each leave type follows its own rules
Set proof, limits, notice and deduction rules per type, so requests that break them are stopped before they reach a manager.
-
Proof and deduction rules Choose per type whether proof is required and whether days come off the balance.
-
Limits and advance notice Monthly and yearly limits, and a minimum number of days’ notice before leave starts.
-
Fallback to another type Deduct from another leave type when one runs out, and retire types without losing history.
Balances everyone can trust
