Department features



For each department, you have to option to specify the maximum number of allowed absentees, designate a user as the department manager and set the default holiday contingent for users within this department.

Additionally, you can structure the approval process and specify in which order the approvers should receive the leave request, should you have multiple approvers in that department.


Benefits of additional departments



By adding this feature, you can subdivide your users into the respective departments in which they already work. You'll get a much clearer glimpse from the overview page because you can filter accordingly.



This feature is also helpful if you need to determine a maximum absence limit per department, or if another user from the same department needs to take over approval of leave if the designated approver is away.



Not only that, but you'll also have control over the privacy settings between departments, where you can decide whether or not absences are visible across departments - perfect for companies looking to maintain confidentiality.
