Leave

Leave types

Each type is configured independently. The defaults below match what most Indian employers already run, and can be changed or removed entirely.

Accrual

Balances accrue on a schedule rather than being granted in full on 1 January, which is what makes joiners and leavers work out correctly without manual adjustment.

• Rate. Days added per month, for example 1.5 for an 18-day annual entitlement.
• Pro-rata joining. A mid-month joiner accrues a partial first month.
• Carry-forward cap. The maximum that survives into the next year; the excess lapses or is encashed.
• Negative balance. Whether an employee may go below zero, and by how much.
• Probation. Whether accrual starts on joining or after confirmation.

Approval

Requests route to the reporting manager. HR and admin roles can approve, override or reject with a reason, and every decision is written to the employee record and the audit log.

The approval screen shows the team calendar for the requested dates. A second person from the same team already being off that week is the single most useful piece of context at the moment of the decision, which is why it is on the same screen rather than one click away.

The holiday calendar

One company-wide calendar, optionally with location-specific entries for teams in different states. Days on the calendar are not deducted from any leave balance and do not produce absent marks in the attendance register.

Reports

• Leave taken by employee, department or type, over any date range.
• Outstanding balance per employee as at a chosen date, which is what year-end settlement needs.
• Pending requests older than a threshold, for chasing approvals.
• CSV export for payroll and for the encashment calculation.
