Ability for supervisor to change total Vacation hours per day without declining and requiring employee to submit new request.
When an employee requests 8 hours PTO for a specific day and their normal hours worked for the week is 40 hours, as a supervisor, it would be easier to be able to alter the 8 hours to 7 hours if they have worked 33 hours the remainder of the week. We don't pay more PTO than the normal work week hours. As it is now, we have to decline the request, and have the employee submit a new request for the needed hours. This is done at the time we are trying to process our payroll. The system could…

Automatic PTO Increase After Tenure Reached
We 100% agree with this previous request by another customer:
Automatic PTO Accrual Increase after Tenure
I have 3 separate PTO accrual policies and they are all based on tenure at the company. Currently, I have to track when each employee started and manually change their PTO accrual policy when they reach a certain Tenure period. It would be great if I could put in a date and it would automatically change their PTO accrual rate when they reach that date. I have already had employees get mad at me for not changing their PTO accrual rate after 1 year.…2 votes -
Ability to assign hours per day to employees for PTO applications. Default is 8 hours per day, our guys work 10 hour days.
Paid Time Off defaults to 8 hours per day. Would like the ability to assign a roster to each employee, hours per day, days per week. Our guys work 10 hour days Monday to Thursday - so need to manually change their applications to reflect a day at 10 hours. Thanks

Give admin the ability to edit time off policies.
Admins are currently unable to edit time off policies. If the user makes a typo or the like while creating the policy, the policy must be deleted to fix. This is massively inefficient.

Add the option to mark 0 hours in a day
It would be nice to mark a calendar date as 0 hours (or Vaca/Sick, etc) so those pulling reports to process payroll don't wonder if the employee forgot to clock in/out and save time tracking down answers.

Edit/Search Feature for Time Off
There are many instances in which we need to edit/delete a time off request due to time off utilization. The process now includes searching through 31 (and growing) pages of taken time off requests. There is no order in the list that makes it easy to navigate. All employees regardless of employed dates are included. If an employee quits, all of his time off requests are stored in the program indefinitely.
A search by date and Employee would make it more beneficial for our use.
Editing a time-off request would be a nice addition.
These two items are my biggest…

Set up the alert to have an e-mail sent a day before the time-off taken by an employee
Is it possible to set up an alert to have an e-mail sent a day before the time-off taken by an employee? That would be very helpful for managers/supervisors as a reminder. Thank you

Time Off Requests
I know this has been mentioned but there needs to be some sort of way to filter through all the time off requests. We need to be able to filter by employee and year. I have to go page by page to find the request to cancel it. There should be no reason to have 2 years back showing up when all I need is the more current time off requests. And being able to edit a time off rather then denying it and having to input it again would be great as well! I wanted to post this idea…

Ability to edit an approved PTO without declining and starting over
I am looking for the ability to edit PTO that is already approved. Right now I have to decline the PTO and then redo it to fix it if an employee changes the time they took off. I would prefer this ability in the timesheet. I now have to go find the exact request.

Hey Stephanie, thanks for sharing your feedback!
I think this idea could be valuable for lots of companies. Not only being able to edit time off from the timesheets, but also adding it and possibly deleting it.
With as many ideas as we receive, and limited work time, let’s see if this idea will pick up some traction and support. If this becomes a popular request, we will build it!

Days off calendar
We have many employees and when we approve time off we need to manually add the time off to a excel vacation calendar we have created so that our manager knows how many people have time off in a day.
It would be wonderful if we could pull a report that would have a calendar view of who has time off upcoming. Maybe a monthly view that we can look at when approving more time off and scheduling employees to work.4 votes -
Easy way to find our running total of PTO

Ability to assign holidays to a PTO policy so that users receive them automatically
How do we enter holidays? Is it possible to set them up and then everyone automatically gets them or the admin can tell who gets paid for them?
18 votesHey Betsy, at the moment you have a couple different options for entering in holidays:
1. You can add time off manually by going to Time > Time Off > Requests > +Add Time Off. You can create a policy called “Holiday” or whatever policy you want to use.
2. You can also add a policy for each holiday to keep track of them that way.
3. Or you can have the employees request the holiday off and approve them.These are all less than ideal, but the good news is we are actually working on this feature! So soon we will do exactly what you suggested. You’ll be able to set them up in a policy and the users will just have them automatically filled.

Please add the ability to turn off automatic emails when adding or declining (deleting) a PTO request.
We use the PTO functions to take Paid Time Off, Unpaid Time Off, Unexcused Absences, No Work, etc. Our employees do not make their requests using the ClockShark app. Our payroll system tracks our PTO accruals.
Every time we enter a "request" or have to "decline" in order to update an entry, an email is sent to the employee creating a lot of confusion.
Please give us the ability to turn off the auto email function in Time Off.

Allow to pick admins that get the time off request email.
In our company I have multiple admins as they pull different reports. I only have two that need to see the time off requests. We should be able to pick which admins get the time off requests.

Time Off Policy - Allow for Multiple, Inconsecutive Days in Single Request
When submitting a time off request, it currently only allows for a date range. It would be convenient to allow for a selection of multiple days (i.e. Friday, Monday & Tuesday -- and exclude the weekend, since they are not working days for us).
At the time, the only way around it is to submit two separate requests. One for Friday, and one for Monday & Tuesday. Issue being that most of our field guys only submit a single request for Friday - Tuesday, which appears logical to them, but accounts for Saturday & Sunday -- which again, are not…

Hey there Nisael, thanks for sharing your feedback and idea with us!
First of all, this is definitely a good idea I know lots of people would benefit from.
It is currently possible when creating a request and selecting the “partial days” option. This allows you to select a half-day one day, full day the next, no hours the next day, etc. See the attached image.
However, we are in the process of adding a better experience for this. In the future, if the request spans the weekend we’ll have a “exclude weekends” option that will do all this for you. So that is something we’ll be adding. I can keep you up to date when the work starts on it.

Search by employee and filter by dates on the Time Off request page
There needs to be a search by employee in the time off taken / approved / declined sections. Also could help if you had a date sort as well to help with filtering. Thank you

Hey Robert, thanks for sharing your ideas with us.
I do think these couple changes could make that page a little more useful and friendly.
I will bring this to our team so we can discuss it for future projects. Since we have tons of ideas, we tend to prioritize all suggestions with the most traction and support. If this becomes a popular request, we will build it!

Be able to enter the exact time off whether sick or vacation time. And not just by the quarter
Be able to enter the exact time off taken. If someone takes an hour and 10 minutes of vacation time, I want to be able to enter it that way. Otherwise, I have to enter it as 1 hour or 1 hour and 15 minutes. Neither one of those obviously being accurate and then messes reporting how much vacation or sick time they have left.

Add Filter to time off request section, there need to be a "canceled" drop down selection.
In the time off request section, there need to be a "canceled" drop down selection to go along with "Pending, Approved, Declined, and Taken." Currently the only way I can see if someone canceled an approved time off that hasn't actually been taken yet is via email that it was canceled. The emails get lost in the request for time off emails. I need to be able to pull a report or have this feature to see history of canceled time off.

Hey Robert, thanks for sharing your feedback with us!
This is an interesting workflow we currently have. We’ll make sure to take a look at this and see how we can improve.
Do you think treating the employee cancellation as a declined request would help?
