Question 1

What does the Leave Manager tool do?

Accepted Answer

It lets you record employee leave requests, approve them, and track annual leave balances in one place. This way you can see how much leave each person has left without manual calculations.

Question 2

How do I add a new leave request?

Accepted Answer

Select the employee, choose the leave type, and enter the start and end dates to create the request. The tool calculates the number of days and lists the request as pending.

Question 3

How is the annual leave balance calculated?

Accepted Answer

Approved leave days are subtracted from the employee's defined annual entitlement to show the remaining balance. Rejected or pending requests are not deducted.

Question 4

What happens when I approve a leave request?

Accepted Answer

Approving a request deducts the relevant days from the employee's remaining balance and marks the request as approved. If you revoke the approval, the days are returned to the balance.

Question 5

Can I distinguish between different leave types?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can define types such as annual, personal, or sick leave separately and assign them to requests. This lets you view each type individually in your records.

Question 6

Are weekends and public holidays included in the leave days?

Accepted Answer

The tool counts the days within the date range you select; to exclude weekends or public holidays, adjust the range accordingly. Follow your workplace rules for official day counting.

Question 7

Are these leave records legally valid?

Accepted Answer

This tool is for tracking and planning only; for official leave registers, payroll, and labor law obligations, consult your accountant or HR specialist. The calculations are informational and do not replace official decisions.

Question 8

Can I export my employee and leave data?

Accepted Answer

You can list and save the leave records and balances you enter, and your data is processed in your browser. Exporting regularly is recommended to keep a backup.
