What the Product Does
This system is tailored to help organizations efficiently track, manage, and approve employee time-off requests. It eliminates the need for manual paperwork, reduces communication delays, and provides a transparent overview of leave schedules. This enables both employees and managers to plan and manage time off effectively, promoting work-life balance and operational efficiency.
Key Features and Functionality
Time-Off Requests
- Employees can submit requests for various types of leave (e.g., vacation, sick leave, parental leave) directly through the system, specifying the type of leave and dates.
- Managers receive these requests in real-time and can approve, reject, or cancel them based on team availability and business policies.
Customizable Leave Types and Policies
- Administrators can create an unlimited number of custom leave types (e.g., paid time-off, maternity leave, external business meetings) with custom form fields and rules.
- The system supports customizable leave policies, including unlimited balance, auto-approved, one-level approval, and two-level approval options.
Access Management
- The system features three levels of users: Employees, Administrators, and Managers, each with defined roles and permissions.
- Users can be grouped by company department for better management and organization.
Automated Processes
- Leave balances are automatically updated, and the system calculates the number of workdays, considering weekends and public holidays.
- Automatic email notifications are sent for leave requests, approvals, and rejections, ensuring all stakeholders are informed.
Resource and Capacity Planning
- Approved time-off requests can be synced with resource planning tools, helping managers assess how absences will affect project allocations and budgets.
- The system allows for the reassignment of available teammates to maintain operational efficiency.
Reporting and Analytics
