This is the section for controlling your employees' time-offs.

Time-offs Settings

Here you can see what types of Time-Offs are available in the company, and you can add the desired type of time off. We have preset 4 types of time-offs, but you can use your own depending on your company processes.

How to add a Time-off?

To do this, click on "Add time-off" in the upper right corner:

In the new window, enter a name, choose a color and it will appear in the list. Also, days off can be calculated automatically, or you can enter them manually.

To make an automatic calculation, select this type with the switcher:

and fill out the calculation instructions: indicate from which period the time-off is calculated and exactly how many hours and under what conditions .

You can add several sequences, depending on the employee's work experience.

For example here:

We add 2 hours monthly to the vacation balance, starting from the 1st working day, and we add 3 days every month after 2 years of work:

The seniority begins from - you choose the necessary period for this condition in numbers;

Period seniority: day, week, month or year;

Amount of accruals ( hours) - choose how many hours will be added to the balance.

Accrual period: you may choose if it's added hourly, daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly or yearly;

Don't forget to click on "Update time-off" for all changes to be applied.

How to adjust the Time-off balance of employees?

Also, there is an option to edit the balance of hours manually. This can be done by editing an employee's profile through the tab Employees.

In the employee's account, in the "Time-offs" section, click on the dots menu at the type of Time-off required:

then choose "adjust balance":

You may add/remove the desired number of hours. After that, we will see that this is a manual calculation, and the very history of calculations:

You can also easily add a record of time-off for the employee.

How to create a Time-Off for the employee?

If your teammate hasn't applied for vacation from his Amploo account, you can easily record this time-off for them:

  • In the employee's account, in the "Time-offs" section, click on the dots menu at the type of Time-off required and choose "Record time-off".

  • In the new window, please select the necessary type, date range, check the number of hours, and click on the "Create request" button:

Just so you know, you can create a record with a backdate as well.

When you choose the date range, the number of hours is set automatically, but you can edit it manually, if, for instance, you might need to record 4 hours only.

Also, when you create a record for the period including weekends, 0 hours are added automatically:

It depends on your office hours setting. You can edit the company working days, the working day duration and weekends at Employees area- Offices:

Where to check Employees Time-Offs?

You may enter any employee account from Employees area- edit - Time- Offs.

And here you see all confirmed time-off requests in Upcoming area:

And all requested, but not approved days off, are located in the "Under consideration" area:

When the manager of the current employee confirms these requests, they go to the "Upcoming area.
