Nine accounts renew inside 30 days and three of them are the ones to worry about. Their ticket volume is up while usage is falling, which is the pattern that preceded every churn last quarter.

The request that sat in a chat thread

Time off in a small company is a message to the manager, a reply three days later, and a calendar nobody updated. Here the request is a record: dates, type, note, and beside it who else on the team is out those days. The manager approves or declines from the same queue as every other approval, the person is told, the team calendar is updated, and the record is on file for payroll.

Marcus Hale9:12 AM

Acme wants a renewal quote. Their contract is up in three weeks.

Ana Duarte9:12 AM

Ticket volume has climbed every month this quarter. Read that before we price it.

Marcus Hale9:13 AM

So someone pulls usage, open tickets and the last two invoices. Three systems.

Priya Raman9:14 AM

And most of an afternoon. Hand it over and hold the send until one of us reads it.

Marcus Hale9:14 AM

@Daciel draft the Acme renewal from usage and tickets, hold the send

Two things it does on day one

Routes the request

To the named manager, with the team's other absences beside it, in the approval queue they already use.

What PTO tracking software should do

PTO tracking software takes time-off requests, routes them for approval, keeps a team calendar and tracks balances. The search is held by small dedicated tools, Vacation Tracker, Day Off, Timeoff.management, and by the leave modules of HR suites.

How time off works

Define leave types

Vacation, sick, unpaid, the ones your policy names, and who approves each.

Request

From the person's record or by asking the agent. Dates, type, note.

Approve

In the manager's queue, with the team's other absences beside it, from the phone if they like.

File

On the person, on the team calendar, and to payroll where connected.

Balances

Read from your payroll provider where connected; otherwise shown as not available.

Safe to run leave through. A request is answered only by the named manager, the decision is on the record, and balances are read from the system that owns them.

Questions people ask before buying

Does it track balances and accruals?

Not on its own today. Where your payroll provider is connected the balance is read from it; otherwise the screen says it is not available rather than guessing.

Who approves a request?

The named manager for that leave type, or their delegate while they are away, from the same approval queue as everything else.

Does it update the calendar?

Yes, the team calendar you connect, and the person's own calendar if they want.

Can employees request from their phone?

Yes, from their record or by asking the agent in words.

What does it cost?
