  1. Overtime and recovery hours

    Allow overtime to be added in a separate counter and then the emplyees can subtract the recup hours from this.

  2. Cancellation of individual days

    It should be possible to cancel individual days of vacation (instead of just the whole vacation). This should also be possible for managers and admins for past holidays. One implementation idea would be to be able to choose between the entire vacation and individual days when canceling vacation, and then select these specifically.

  3. Planned absence

    Provide possibility to " plan " absences (display as " planned absence "). Or display absences that have not yet started as "planned" in the individual contingent overview.

  4. Set Allowance to move forward based on when employment starts

    There seems to be no way to set when time off allowances and how they move forward per person. our policy is to give vacation days based on when the person started employment. Perhaps I'm missing something, if so It's not clear how to accomplish this.

  5. The ability to change your absence markings without cancelling them

    I would like to see an option to change your absence markings without cancelling them. I.e. when you try to change (shift) your vacation, you have to cancel the whole thing and start over.

  7. School Holidays marked in bar above week days

    We are a company with many employees with school kids. When we plan our holiday with absentify it would be usefull to see, when the school holidays in our country/state are starting and ending. It should work similar to the public holidays. maybe the days in the bar of the week days should be marked with school holiday when you choose for example germany / lower saxony in the settings. thanks

  8. Show out of office notifications for people that only work part time

    It would be great if the out of office notification that gets displayed in Teams would also be displayed for people like students that work only a couple of days a week based on their schedule.

  9. Multiple entries on same starts out of office on earliest notice not last

    I have, on multiple occasions, taken the latter part of the afternoon off, after my scheduled lunch break and we have out of office integration set up. It appears that the setting to start sending out of offices notices is based on earliest time leaving (lunch time) and ending at the latest end time (which is appropriate). However, this causes some confusion during the time I am still in the office: between the end of lunch and the early leave. Example: Lunch Set from 12- 12:30 Leave Request: 3PM - until end of day Out office is set to send out notices that I have left at 12 and would not return until the next day. I would like to see the integration pick up that there is a gap that I am in the office and not show that I am out until the 'latest' entry for the day.

  11. Ability to edit pre populated public holidays.

    In Canada, Labor is spelled Labour and so we have to delete and re-add this day for all years. We've also been finding that prepopulated holidays are not always accurate. Editing (along with previously suggested reoccurring option) would really make this more efficient.

  12. Canceling an absence must also be approved

    When a user wants to cancel an absence, the approver must also accept or refuse the cancellation

  13. Upload attachments to each request

    For example, if you're booking time off as a sick day, you can include a photo of a doctor's note. 🤢 Only admin and the manager can see this attachment.

  14. request is pending till approved

    User request for holiday should not change their allowance balance until the request is approved. plus the icon should be a pending request icon which changes to an approved request icon help the user visually see if their request has been approved - they may miss the email.

  15. Blockoutdates

    Due to events in the year, it would be useful to define dates when vacations cannot be taken. It would be useful if it can be defined which type of absences cannot be taken during the blocking dates.
