Feature Ideas

In the overview, it would be great to be able to sort (for example : sorting people by their last names instead of their first names, by the number of holidays remaining or based on their positions) and filter people (to select manually only some people of the team, the ones with a similar position for example). Thank you

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.

It would be nice to have a button for "Today" next to the Absent today that would take you to the current date/day instead of having to arrow back when looking at future dates. A drop down for future months would be helpful and more user friendly in looking at scheduling time off or business trips instead of arrowing forward or backward.

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

A noticeboard where the rules per leave type can be loaded as static content would assist new and casual employees on what kind of absences they can take and the rules for each one. For example. if one is calling in sick - the noticeboard can have something that says notify your line manager by 9am or if one is booking sick leave for more than two days, they would know they need to bring a doctor's letter on return to duties. It can be just an additional tab on the app and the main administrator has access to update the tab.

This allows you to track any changes to settings or approvals. Incl. user e-mail and IP address. This function is available to the administrator.

Hi, It would be very helpful if both the requester and approval would be able to see the balance of his/her leaves from the email notifications, instead of toggling between the app and email to view the balance. Thanks!

Like being able to put your own company logo in for the web version; would be great if you could edit the colour in the background into company colours. Or change the fonts/colours of writing. Another, more advance feature, would be cool if we could customise the layout of the way we request Holiday, for example moving the request holiday button, or changing the layout of the box that appears when you press the button. Could be a selection of designs in the preferences box or could enable personal customisation. Ther ecould be other areas of customisation as well

Helpful to jump back to today when scrolling in the calendar

Right now it is only possible to enter one kind of event on one day. It would be helpful to enter two dates on one day, and that they were shown for all users For example: Someone is working remote and at the same time, there is a group meeting (for all members), which can also be done by this person remote. The calender could shown both: the absence of the person and the group meeting

Ich weiß, dass absentify ein Tool zur Abwesenheitsplanung ist, aber ich würde es grandios finden, wenn es eine Art Zeiterfassung geben könnte, die mit absentify kommuniziert. Egal welches Tool ich mir anschaue, ich müsste meine geplanten Abwesenheiten manuell in der Zeiterfassung pflegen. Ich weiß, dass es hier gewiss Möglichkeiten gibt - insbesondere mit PowerApps und PowerAutomate - aber eine vollintegrierte Lösung finde ich einfach besser. In unserem Fall würden wir auch nur die simpelste aller Zeiterfassungen benötigen: Ein- und Ausstempeln. Und natürlich ein Auswertungstool für den Mitarbeiter selbst und für die Admins, die alles einsehen können. --- Translation via ChatGPT: I know that absentify is a tool for absence planning, but I would find it fantastic if there could be some sort of time tracking that communicates with absentify. No matter which tool I look at, I would have to manually maintain my planned absences in the time tracking system. I know there are certainly possibilities here—especially with PowerApps and PowerAutomate—but I just find a fully integrated solution better. In our case, we would only need the simplest form of time tracking: clocking in and out. And of course, a reporting tool for the employees themselves and for the admins who can view everything.

It would be really nice if the calendar sync functionality had the option to also sync holiday items that have been configured in Absentify.

Gratulation to a simple and easy to handle solution for the vacation-management. Now its time to add a timetracking solution in the same way. Any chance to see something like that?

Should show the amount of years employed

Would be good if the reason for absence was shown when you hover over an absence in the calendar for Admins.
