Holiday manager

The Holiday manager page (Team → Holidays) shows holiday requests and company holidays on one calendar, and it is where you request leave: select one day or several consecutive days on the calendar. The colours mean: yellow – pending, green – accepted, red – rejected, blue – company holiday. If half-day leave is enabled for the team, you can pick a morning or an afternoon when you select a single day.

Requesting leave

  1. Click the day you want on the calendar, or drag across several days.
  2. Check the period and the number of days in the window that opens.
  3. If half-day leave is enabled for the team and you selected a single day, choose under Day part: Full day, Morning or Afternoon.
  4. Click Submit.

The request is created as pending, and the team's admins are notified. Only an admin can record leave for a past date.

The selected period cannot contain a company holiday (for example a weekend or public holiday that has been entered). If your leave spans such a day, submit a separate request for each run of working days.

What the page shows

  • At the top, how many days of leave you can still request this year, with a bar showing the part already taken.
  • How is it calculated? shows what your entitlement is made of (base leave, age-based additional leave, other entitlements) – if you have an HR profile.
  • The calendar can be shown as Calendar, Monthly or Yearly.
  • The calendar also shows your colleagues' pending and accepted leave; the list below it shows your own requests.
  • HR managers also see recorded absences (such as sick leave) on the calendar.

For admins

  • Switch between the My View and Team View tabs. On Team View you manage the whole team's requests; a badge shows how many are pending.
  • Issue Leave lets you give leave to several colleagues at once, for example for a company closure day. Issued days are accepted immediately, and company holidays are skipped.
  • The gear icon opens the HR settings page, where you set entitlements, company holidays and half-day leave.

The page is available to team members with the editor or admin role.
