Feature Ideas

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.

It would be great to have the possibility to grant a major manager (like CEO or HR manager) the possibility to see all users absences (like the Admin can do) without linking them to specific departments nor giving them admin rights. So they will not appear in the overview of each department, but they also cannot change settings which should be only feasible for admins.

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.

It would be great to have an app so that employees could easily request of through app.

It will be nice if can print the annual calendar of each user separately, perhaps as a pdf file.

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.

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

Currently the schedule is set for a weekly pattern. We have some people who work a 9 day fortnight, so to show this in absentify we have to at a new schedule for each week of the year, which is a pain to set up! If the schedule could have an option to set specific rules (i.e. this person is off every other Friday) or a schedule over multiple weeks that would be amazing!

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

For governance & admin purpose, we need to export in excel all users settings / Leave types that are set in absentify for managers to check all settings linked to the users in a rapid way. It is too painful to check in absentify. Also, it is necessary to export the calendars even though there are no leaves entered. Allow to choose a time frame with start date and end date for export as we have no choice but to export the full year or 1 month This is necessary for big companies if we want to onboard more departments

Every 5 years we have something special for our employees on their anniversary. For our company it would be better if the date only shows up 5 years (10 years, 15 years, ...) after the beginning.

User schedules: Users should only be able to set their own schedule and should not be able to modify others It would be nice if you could view specific user's schedules - If I'm trying to schedule a meeting from the UK with someone located in the US it would be nice to see the hours they'll be working

Add a "planning mode" toggle to the leave request form so that employees can enter "draft" leaves and plan for their year. Ideally, there would then be a button to convert a draft leave into an actual request.

The current Overview UI does not show the full department name when only 1 department is selected. Instead of hovering to the drop-down list every time, utilizing the white space to show the full department name will be a great UI/UX improvement

"The calendar view displays a user's absences for an entire year, similar to the 'My calendar' feature in the main menu. With this option disabled, only the user, their manager/approver and the administrator will have access to the user's calendar." - This toggle under Privacy & Permissions can only be changed for the entire organization. Would it be possible to adjust this by department instead?
