Time off

Updated today

How can I set up a company vacation for all employees?

At the moment, we do not support the possibility of setting up a company vacation for all employees. However, as a workaround, you can create a time off type and activate it in the time off policy of the employees. From here, you can enter the company vacation for all employees.


Can I cancel a paid leave request on the day of my absence?

Yes. You can cancel your paid leave request at any time before the absence date has passed. This includes cancelling on the actual absence day, whether it is a half day or a full day off. However, once the absence date has passed, the request can no longer be cancelled.


Why was my time off request cancelled without showing who cancelled it?

If no person is listed as the one who cancelled your time off request, it was most likely cancelled automatically. This happens when your time off policy changes — all future requests are automatically cancelled by default so the new policy can take effect.


Why are my time off requests missing?

If your time off requests are missing, it’s likely because your time off policy was changed. When a policy is reassigned, all pending and planned requests are automatically cancelled.


What if I forgot to add a time off request in the previous year?

If you forgot to add a time off request for the previous year, and the time off balance for that year is already inactive, it is no longer possible to submit a request for that period.

In this case, the only option is to manually adjust the balance. Time off requests cannot be added to inactive balances.


Why is time off displayed in two different colors in the calendar?

The color difference is intentional. In the calendar:

  • Brighter colors are used for time off requests and events from the past.

  • Darker colors are used for time off requests and events in the future.

This visual distinction helps users quickly identify whether a request refers to a past or upcoming date.


How do I create time off reports?

It is possible to create time off reports. Navigate to Time off > Requests. From here, select the Filter option in the top-left corner. You can go ahead and select the filters of your choice. You can filter individual employees by defining them by Time off type and timeframe.

Alternative option: navigate to Time off > Balances and select the time off type in the top-right dropdown menu.

The steps described above give you an overview of employees and their (type of) absence. Giving you a better understanding of how often employees have been out of office.


How can I add additional vacation days to an employee's balance?

You can edit the number of vacation days in three ways:

#1 Adjust the Time off policy - accessible to administrators

Navigate to Settings > Configuration > Time off and select on Time off policies. Select your Time off type by choice or create a new one.

On the left-side menu bar, click on Time off types and select your Time off type by choice and edit the information.

#2 Adjust manually per employee via Time off > Balances

Navigate to Time off > Balances. Behind every employee you are able to see a little pencil icon. When hovering over the icon it says "Adjust balance". Click on the little pencil, adjust the balance and click on Save changes in the top-right corner.

#3 Adjust manually per employee via Time off policies

Navigate to Settings > Configuration > Time off and click on Time off policies. Select a Time off policy and click on Balances (a dropdown will be visible). Pick the time off type of your choice in the dropdown. Adjust the balance and click on Save changes in the top-right corner.
