Novedades Vacaciones y Permisos

Index

The Time Off module now includes three major enhancements built to improve oversight, streamline workflows, and support leaders in organizations with growing or distributed teams:

  • New Team Visibility Filter for managers and admins

  • Cycle Selection for manual balance adjustments

  • Advanced Segmentation Filters across management views

 

These releases address real operational challenges and help HR teams gain precision, consistency, and efficiency in the way time off is managed.

 

Team Visibility Filter: leadership-aligned access to information

Managers and admins can now view requests, balances, and calendars based on their actual reporting structure.

 

Why it matters

  • Greater autonomy for managers, easing the operational burden on HR.

  • Better visibility of workforce availability, including indirect reports.

  • Faster approval flows, particularly for leaders with large teams.

  • Cleaner, more accurate data exposure, aligned with governance standards.

 

Use cases

  • Multi-level managers who need visibility beyond direct reports.

  • Admins who manage teams and want a focused view.

  • Planning leave distribution with comprehensive team insights.

 

Cycle Selection in Manual Adjustments: accuracy where it matters most

Manual balance adjustments now allow HR teams to specify exactly which cycle or year the modification applies to.

 

Why this is a strategic improvement

  • Better control over historical balances.

  • More accurate corrections, especially for past years.

  • Greater compliance with labor policies and audit requirements.

  • Reduced dependence on bulk uploads for small or retroactive corrections.

 

Use cases

  • Fixing balances from a previous year.

  • Applying retroactive updates from payroll or labor agreements.

  • Correcting carried-over days or former allocations.

 

Segmentation Filters: deeper insights for complex organizations

Admins can filter requests, balances, and calendars by segmentation criteria such as country, office, department, or frequently used segments.

 

Why it matters

  • Granular visibility of absence patterns across regions or teams.

  • Cleaner datasets for planning and forecasting.

  • More efficient approval cycles with focused views.

  • Perfect for scaling organizations with multiple locations or structures.

 

Use cases

  • Viewing requests from one country or location.

  • Analyzing balances within a specific area.

  • Reviewing leave patterns during critical operational periods.

 

All three enhancements are now live in the Time Off module.
