Leave Tracking: Overview

Introduction

The Leave Request module is designed to streamline the process of requesting, approving, and tracking employee time off. It provides a centralized system for managing all types of leave, from vacation and sick days to personal and compassionate leave. The goal is to make leave management transparent, efficient, and easy for everyone involved.

Key Concepts

The module is built around a few core concepts:

• Leave Requests: Employees submit leave requests to get approval for time off. Each request includes details like the type of leave, the dates, and a description. This ensures that all necessary information is captured in a standardized way.

• Approval Workflow: Once a request is submitted, it goes to the employee’s designated manager for approval. The manager is automatically notified and can review, approve, reject, or return the request for more information. This creates a clear and consistent approval process.

• Company Calendar: The Company Calendar provides a company-wide view of all approved leave. This helps managers and administrators see who is out of the office at a glance, making it easier to plan and schedule work.

• Leave Request Report: For a more detailed analysis, the Leave Request Report offers a comprehensive grid of all leave requests in the system. This powerful tool allows managers to sort, filter, and export leave data to track trends and monitor employee availability.
