Leave management that
talks to the roster
Annual leave, personal/carer's leave, TOIL or your own custom types — staff request from the app, you approve with balances and clashes in view, and the roster, timesheets and payroll export update themselves.
The manager's screen — pick an employee, check balances, act on requests without leaving the page

Five stages, no paper forms, no forgotten emails
Employee Requests
Leave type, dates and a note — submitted from the app in under a minute.
System Checks
Balance, roster clashes and team coverage checked before a human even looks.
Manager Decides
Approve or decline with optional comments, seeing the roster impact as you do.
Everyone's Notified
The employee's phone buzzes with the answer, and balances adjust on approval.
Roster Blocks Out
Approved days are blocked on the roster and carried through to timesheets and payroll.
The Team's Time Off on One Calendar
A colour-coded month shows exactly who's away and when — approved leave solid, pending requests dashed. Coverage gaps show up while there's still time to plan around them, and staff can see when the team's already thin before requesting the same week.
Balances That Track Themselves
Annual and personal/carer's leave accrue progressively under the Australian rule set, and every approval adjusts the numbers instantly. Staff check their own balance before asking; you check the team's without opening a spreadsheet.
Nobody Waits, Nothing Slips
Requests announce themselves to managers, decisions announce themselves to staff, and the system quietly checks every request against the roster in between. The whole conversation happens without a single "did you see my leave form?"
The complexity paper forms and spreadsheets quietly drop
