Approval Workflow for Leave Management

Problem Currently, leave requests are routed to platform administrators instead of an employee’s direct Manager or Supervisor. This creates bottlenecks and removes ownership from department leads who should be managing attendance and approvals. Proposed Feature Introduce a dynamic approval workflow that routes leave requests directly to an employee’s assigned Manager/Supervisor. Key Capabilities Assign each employee a Manager/Supervisor in the system Automatically route leave requests to that Manager for approval Support multiple managers across departments (not just one global approver) Optional fallback to Admin if no Manager is assigned Approval notifications (email + in-app) Clear approval history and audit trail Benefits Faster approvals Better accountability at the department level Less admin workload Scales for organizations with multiple supervisors Example Flow Employee submits leave → Request goes to their Manager → Manager approves/rejects → Employee is notified → Leave balance updates automatically

Export Payroll Vendor Report in a Single File

We’d love the ability to export the Payroll Vendor Report as a single consolidated file, instead of generating individual files per vendor or category. Why is this important? Managing payments across multiple vendors can be time-consuming when each report needs to be downloaded separately. A single-file export would streamline reconciliation and submission to external systems (e.g. banks or accounting platforms), especially for businesses managing high payroll volumes. How will it help users? Simplifies reporting workflows Reduces download friction Enables quicker uploads to banks or payment systems Improves accuracy by reducing report fragmentation

Adjustable Work Days During Pay Run

Enable payroll administrators to adjust the number of workdays used for salary calculations during a pay run. This flexibility will allow for scenarios where employees have variable schedules, prorated salaries, or adjustments due to unpaid leave, holidays, or special company policies. Problem Statement Currently, payroll calculations assume a fixed number of workdays per pay period, which may not accurately reflect real-world variations in employee schedules. Organisations with dynamic work policies need the ability to modify workdays for specific employees or the entire payroll batch. Proposed Solution Allow payroll administrators to override default workdays for a pay period. Provide an interface within the pay run where workdays can be manually adjusted per employee. Integrate with attendance and leave records to suggest workdays automatically. Ensure proper calculations for prorated salaries, benefits, and deductions when workdays are adjusted.
