Every organization needs to manage its employees\u2019 leaves and time offs. Whether you want to know who is on leave today or record an upcoming vacation, you can do so easily with AttendanceBot.<\/span><\/p>\n

Update leave balances on AttendanceBot faster<\/span><\/h2>\n

We are building the easiest and fastest way for organizations to manage their employees\u2019 leaves and time offs. This means that you can record and manage your employees\u2019 past as well as upcoming leaves using AttendanceBot.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

However, inconsistency in employees\u2019 leaves can impact your payroll. Hence, we have made it easier for you to update your employees\u2019 past leaves.\u00a0 Whether you want to adjust leave balances for your team members in bulk or you\u2019d like to migrate your data from another system (no hard feelings), you can do so in an instant.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"import<\/p>\n

Simply collate the leave balances for your team on an Excel and upload it. AttendanceBot will then, reflect these changes for your team.<\/span><\/p>\n

Choose which leaves to hide<\/span><\/h2>\n

In this new humanized update, we have improved the way your team is notified about each other\u2019s availability. For each of the leave types available to your team, you can control your team\u2019s privacy by choosing which leaves you\u2019d like to show and hide. Say, you are requesting a \u201csick day<\/em>\u201d to take your dog to the vet but you don\u2019t want your colleagues to worry about it. You can, therefore, hide \u201csick leave<\/em>\u201d so that the type of leave doesn\u2019t appear on public interfaces.<\/span><\/p>\n
