The Hidden Cost of Manual Leave Tracking

Spreadsheets feel free until they are not. HR spends hours fixing formula errors. Managers approve leave without seeing the full team calendar. Two employees book the same day off. Public holidays differ by country and nobody updates the shared file.

TimeOffLedger eliminates those failures with a single, always-current leave system:
– Employees see balances and request leave in seconds
– Managers approve from email or dashboard with full context
– HR monitors organization-wide absence from one wallchart
– Policies for accrual, carry-forward, and max absentees apply automatically

Core Capabilities

Everything You Need for Leave & Absence Management

PTO Requests & Approvals

Employees submit annual leave, sick leave, unpaid time off, or custom absence types from desktop or mobile-friendly views. Managers approve or decline instantly. Employees receive automatic notifications — no chasing required

Live Team Wallchart

See who is off today, this week, and next month across departments, roles, and locations. Plan projects and shift coverage before conflicts happen. Filter by workplace, team, or leave type.

Flexible Leave Policies

Configure annual allowances, accrual schedules, pro-rated entitlements, tiered leave, carry-forward limits, and maximum employees absent per day. Override settings for individual employees when policies require exceptions.

Automatic Balance Tracking

Approved leave deducts from balances instantly. Overbooking is prevented. Employees always see remaining entitlement and full leave history. Admins adjust allowances anytime without rebuilding spreadsheets.

Custom Leave Types

Beyond standard PTO and sick leave, create unlimited custom types — bereavement, jury duty, leave in lieu, sabbatical, or company-specific categories — each with its own rules and approval chain.

Multi-Location Public Holidays

Assign employees to workplaces and apply location-based public holidays automatically. Manage global teams with non-traditional work weeks from one centralized account.

Absence Reports & Insights

Generate utilization reports, department summaries, and trend analysis filtered by date range and workplace. Spot absence patterns and plan workforce capacity with data — not guesswork.

Smart Digests & Notifications

Daily or weekly email summaries keep managers and HR informed of upcoming absences without logging in constantly.

Leave does not exist in isolation. TimeOffLedger links approved absences to attendance tracking, timesheets, and payroll preparation — so the same approved day off is never entered three times.
