What it does — an employee requests time off, a manager approves it. At the end of the month the employee confirms their attendance and their supervisor approves it.

Sign-in

with a Microsoft 365 account including MFA, no more passwords (see the page about signing in with Entra ID).

Time-off request

a calendar for picking a range (click, Shift+click, Ctrl+click), half-day requests, an optional supporting document from the camera or a file. Weekends and holidays don't count toward the days, and the app shows right away how much vacation allowance is left.

Absence types

a code list distinguished by how each type counts toward the working-time fund.

Approvals

a manager sees pending requests including documents and decides with an optional comment. Monthly attendance is approved separately.

Notifications

a manager gets an email alert about pending requests with a link to the app. The user also learns about request approvals or rejections.

Team overview

a weekly grid showing who is at work, who is half-day and who is absent.

Month-end closing

a month can't be closed while a request decision is pending. After approval, a document is stored that is never regenerated.

Exports

export to XLSX and PDF, in Czech and English.
