  1. Add Noticeboard where organisation leave rules can be posted as static content.

    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.

  2. Overtime and recovery hours

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

  3. Allow approvers to quickly have an overview of the week of a user's new request.

    Approvers must go forward months to see the number of approved time off for the week of the new user request. At the start of the year, this can potentially be twelve clicks to get to December. It would be useful for the 'Approve or Decline' link in the request email to go the Requests page. Once on the Requests page, a quick way to view the week of the new user request would be useful. This could either be a 'View in Calendar' button next to 'Approve' and 'Decline' buttons on the Requests page. The button could go to the Overview page filtered to the user's department, starting at the start of the date range of the new user request. Another option is to have a way of expanding the new user request on the Requests page to show a snippet of the calendar with details of the approved time off. Thanks.

  4. Company colours / Customization

    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

  5. Absences that affect only half a day over several days

    Allow absences that affect only half a day over several days / weeks (to avoid having to change the working time model for short periods).

  6. Allow morning and afternoon times to overlap in a work schedule

    When users request leave for a morning or afternoon, the users receive an Outlook calendar invite to show they are out of the office at that time. The times on the calendar item match the user’s work schedule. It would be useful if the times could overlap in a work schedule to account for total time out of the office, including lunch. An example schedule is 9 to 12 and 1 to 5 - if the user requests leave for the afternoon, their calendar isn't showing they are out of the office until 1 when they actually finished at 12. To account for this, the times in the work schedule could overlap or the user could be allowed to change the times of the calendar invite. Both are not possible now. Thanks.

  7. Calender visible before start date and after end date

    Why there is calender before start date and after end date for every employee. Why leaves can be marked before he was even joined! Same problem is there after end date! Dates must be grayed out beyond employee's tenure and must not be accesible! It's hard to identify as well when someone have joined and left unless i check it in settings as an admin.

  8. Compensatory Time Off

    This field is not included in the export feature, which we will be using for monthly reporting Also is it possible to track what changes are made to this field?

  9. Leave types (without allowances) assigned to departments

    Currently, if a leave type is assigned to an allowance, only people with that allowance can see that leave type, which is good. It would also be great to be able to assign leave types without allowances to departments, so that only those departments could see them. This would reduce the number of leave types a user can select and only show the relevant options.

  10. Color coding of vacation periods

    The admin can maintain school vacations that can be assigned per employee. This makes it easier for the employee to plan their vacation within or outside the vacation periods. Alternatively, an employee vacation would also be possible, for which requests can be made by the admin. This β€œemployee” is then displayed as the first employee in the list.

  11. 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.

  12. 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.

  13. Recurring events/appointments as a series

    Would like to be able to create a series of an appointment/s like Outlook allows us to.

  15. 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.
