Pending Team Requests
Any request already approved thats then adjusted by the user will now show in the pending team requests page for the HR or Admin users to re-approve. Previously, this would stay in the Accepted Requests tab making it hard for the HR / Admin users to find.
28th June 2022
App Integrations
We are now offering further functionality into the platform in the way of apps and integrations. This may be syncing with Google, or adding Expense Manage, or Overtime etc. These will be released over the coming year, and Expenses Manager is ready and live.
Bug fix with bank holidays
When requesting a leaver report for an employee, if that employee started within the same working year, the bank holidays count was incorrect. This has now been resolved and heavily tested.
Mental Health Notifications
You can set an amount of days without holiday before an employee is notifed of this, where the system will advise them to take a break and book some holiday.
Sickness Patterns
The system will now monitor and use AI to generate a report for HR and Admin staff on patterns found in employees sickness and holiday. This will massively help you to approach employees about potential issues outside of work or issues within the workplace.

Birthday Emails
When its an employees birthday, we will send them a happy birthday email, letting them know we care.
Request Notification Bug
If your team contains no HR or HR_ADMIN employee then the request email would be sent to the admins or owner. A bug prevented this from happening which is now fixed.

Fixed a typo on the ‘Accept’ button when actioning an event on the modal window.
Leaver Report Bug
Fixed an issue with the leaver report, where it wasn’t taking carried over days into consideration.

To help prevent spam accounts and offer better security
Implemented a new Sub Team owner HR role
This now means if your team uses sub teams, when a member of a sub-team requests holiday the request is handled by the sub-team owner and not the main HR or Admin staff. HR and Admin staff will still receive a notification within the platform but wont receive emails alerting them to this.
The sub-team owner cannot action their own events, level up HR or Admin members will need to action these events.
Sub Team Owner Rquests Page
Implemented a new Sub Team Requests page for all sub-team owners to manage request from within their sub-team in one place.
