Leave and company holidays

Updated 3 October 2026

Request leave

1. Open Team → Leave and select Request leave.
2. Choose the type: Annual, Sick, Unpaid or Other leave.
3. Pick the dates. For a single day you can tick Half day. Add a note if you like, then select Save.

The form shows how many working days it takes and how many you have left. Your request waits for approval; you can Withdraw it until then.

Approve leave

Owners, admins and people with "View employee activity" can approve anyone's leave. Project managers can approve leave for people in their projects. Requests appear under Waiting for approval on the Leave page, and on the dashboard's Waiting for you card. Select Approve or Don't approve. Nobody approves their own leave.

Company holidays

Owners and admins add holidays on the same page: select Add leave and choose Company holiday. Holidays apply to everyone and do not count as leave days.

Allowances and balances

Under Leave balances, owners and admins set a yearly allowance for each type, for the whole company or for one person. Everyone sees their own balance: days left, taken and waiting. Approvers see when a request goes over the allowance; it is not blocked.

The leave year follows The year starts in on the Performance report (for example April to March). Days taken count weekdays and leave out company holidays; a half day counts as ½.

Where leave shows

Approved leave and holidays appear on the Calendar, and people on leave are marked "On leave until …" when you assign tasks.
