How Can I Set Hourly Intervals to Leave Policies?

|| Please note that this feature is only available as part of our Complete Plan

At Vacation Tracker, we know that leaves sometimes need to be short and sweet. This is why we are pleased to offer you the Hourly Increments feature.

This feature allows users to request leaves in hourly time intervals. If someone needs to run a quick errand or go to an appointment during their work day, they will not have to schedule a full day or half-day's leave.

Here's how you can set up hourly increments for your leave types:

1. Log in to your online dashboard by going to: app.vacationtracker.io/signin
2. To create a new leave type and set the setting, go to Leave Setup, Leave Types and select Create Leave Type. For editing existing Leave Policies, go to Locations, select the Leave Policies tab on the top and the Edit icon
3. Once the Leave Policy window is opened, select the 1 hour option in the Shortest Leave Duration section

4. Click Save for the setting to be applied

Note: With our Complete plan subscription, you will also have 30 and 15 minute increments in the drop-down menu.

Users will now be able to request hourly leaves for that leave type. After selecting the date and the option from the drop-down, Users can choose the times that they will be off:

Once the request has been submitted and approved, the leave will populate on the Calendar and Dashboard views!

On the Dashboard Calendar view, leaves shorter than a full day will be represented by striped blocks:

For a more detailed view of the scheduled leaves, you can always select the List View on the Calendar page:
