Chapter 12

Leave and holidays

Approved time off flows straight into attendance and payroll, so nobody has to adjust salaries by hand.

Company holidays

Open Leaves & Holidays and add festivals and office-closed days, for example “Diwali”. Holidays are paid for everyone and are never treated as an absence by pay rules. Add the whole year at the start.

Leave requests

Employees apply from the Leaves tab of their app. Requests appear under Action needed on the dashboard and on Leaves & Holidays. Managers can also record leave for someone directly.

Approving leave

Full pay
Each leave day is paid in full.
Half pay or a percentage
Each leave day pays that share of a normal day.
A fixed amount
One amount for the whole leave (owners and admins). It can’t be more than full pay.
Unpaid
Recorded as leave, not paid.
Fewer days
Approve only part of the requested dates. The employee sees how many days were approved out of how many asked.

Admins see what each choice costs (“₹484 a day, ₹968 for the 2 days”); managers see percentages only. You can undo a decision, which puts the request back as it was asked.
