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

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!

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

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.

I find the way the texts of the out-of-office messages are handled quite confusing. The idea of changing the text for several absence types at the same time is good, but the problem is that when I select two or more appointment types, the system cannot decide which one to display and it diplays a standard one. From a usability perspective, it would be more logical to only allow one appointment type to be selected and then display and customize the text for that type. Optionally, at the buttom of the form user could choose to apply this text to other types.

My request is that an employee from a department be able to manage the absences of the trainees in that department, without being the department head. For data protection reasons, I don't want this employee to be able to see the total absence allowances of everyone in that department or manage the absences of other trainees. Is there a solution for this?

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.

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

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

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.

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

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

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.

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.
