How the booking system works

Three steps from request to approved — no emails, no spreadsheets, no chasing.

1

Employee requests leave

The employee selects their dates in the app and sees their remaining leave balance before submitting. They pick the leave type and add a note if needed — the whole thing takes seconds.

2

Manager reviews and approves

The manager gets notified, sees the team calendar to check for conflicts, and approves or declines with one tap. No email thread required.

3

Balance updates automatically

Once approved, the entitlement is deducted from the employee's balance and they receive an instant notification. The team calendar updates immediately — no manual admin needed.

Leave booking

Employees book leave in seconds

No more emailing managers or filling in paper forms. Employees open the app, pick their dates, and submit — knowing exactly how much leave they have left before they request it.

  • Check remaining balance before requesting
  • Select dates and leave type from the app
  • See team calendar to avoid clashes
  • Get instant notification when approved

Manager view

Managers see the full picture

The team calendar gives managers a clear view of who is off, who is pending, and whether approving a request would leave the team short. No more approving leave that causes a coverage gap.

Everything you need in the booking system

Built specifically for UK teams — with statutory rules and payroll integration baked in from the start.

Auto-calculated entitlement

UK statutory entitlement of 28 days is calculated automatically based on each employee's start date and working pattern. Part-time employees get the correct pro-rata entitlement without any manual calculation.

Custom leave types

Configure the leave types your business uses — annual leave, sick leave, TOIL, compassionate leave, parental leave, and more. Each type tracks separately so balances are always accurate.

Carryover rules

Set expiry dates on carried-over leave and cap the number of unused days employees can carry forward. Policies are enforced automatically — no manual monitoring needed at year end.

Payroll integration

Leave data flows directly into your payroll exports. When you export approved hours to Xero, QuickBooks, or CSV, leave taken is already included — keeping your payroll accurate without double entry.

Simple, transparent pricing

One price covers everything. No modules, no add-ons, no contracts.
