The problem

Why leave still happens on WhatsApp

Verbal approvals create no balance truth, no substitute plan, and no payroll accuracy.

Unknown balances

Staff argue about remaining CL/EL with no shared ledger.

Approval fog

A yes in chat never reaches HR or the timetable.

Substitute scramble

Classes discover a missing teacher at the first period.

Payroll surprises

Unpaid leave is discovered after salaries are paid.

FAQ

Questions teams ask before buying

Straight answers for setup, integrations, and day-two operations.

Can different roles have different leave policies?

Yes. Configure accruals and entitlements by employee category or role.

Does leave auto-update the timetable?

It surfaces approved absences for coordinators; substitution assignment still uses Timetable Scheduler workflows.

How does unpaid leave reach payroll?

Approved LOP/unpaid codes can reduce the Faculty Payroll period when mapping is enabled.

Are holidays counted as leave?

Calculations can exclude Academic Calendar holidays and weekly offs per your policy.
