Leave Management

Timble mobile app now allows staff members to submit their own leave requests, eliminating the need for managers to manually load the requests. Managers can simply approve or decline the requests, saving time for both managers and staff members.

Enable the submission of leave requests

  1. Go to Settings → General.
  2. Enable “Allow team members to submit leave requests” option.

Once this option is enabled, staff members will need to update their mobile app to version 1.4.0 or newer. After the update, they will see the "Leave" menu in the Accounts screens of the Timble mobile app.

Managers leave permissions

In terms of leave permissions for managers, the "can add/approve leave request" permission has been retired and replaced with three new permissions:

  • Can approve/decline leave requests: Managers with this permission can review and approve or decline leave requests from their team members.
  • Can edit and delete approved leave requests: Managers with this permission can make edits or deletions to already approved leave requests.
  • Can approve own leave requests: Managers with this permission can approve their own leave requests.

These new permissions provide precise control over what managers can and can't do regarding leave requests. By default, leave requests will be sent to the department manager. If no one in the department has the permission to approve or decline leave requests, the requests will be sent to the admin for approval or decline.

Shifts and leave on the same day

Previously, shifts had to be removed when adding a leave request. However, with the new update, shifts and leave can coexist on the same day. For example, if a staff member is assigned a shift and then gets sick, they can submit a sick leave request. The manager can then tag the shift as "Sick" to keep a record of it for future reference.

A dedicated page for managing leave requests

This page allows managers to easily add, edit, and filter leave requests without the need to open each member's profile and switch to the Leave tab. This streamlines the process and makes leave management more efficient.

Bug fixes 🐛 & Enhancements 🧚

  • Fixed assigning roles to department issue
  • Fixed staff can view drafted shifts  via mobile app
  • Fixed changing leave request start or end date will override leave types
  • Fixed refreshing page issue when account is deactivated
  • Fixed displaying shifts from deleted location issue

Staff members can submit their own unavailability and more

As of today, staff members can now submit their own unavailability directly through Timble mobile app. This means that managers can easily see who is available when creating weekly rosters, without having to manually look up emails or rely on staff members to notify them in advance.

To enable this feature, just go to Settings → General, and turn on “Allow team members to submit unavailability” option.

With this new feature, staff members no longer need to send emails about their unavailability, saving them time and reducing the risk of miscommunication. Managers can also save time by quickly reviewing the unavailability information in our system, instead of having to track down individual emails.

Notify members with no shifts

Staff members who have not been assigned shifts for the week may inquire about the roster's publication status. Now, they also receive email notifications once the roster has been published. Just need to select “Publish all shifts” when rostering is completed.

Bug fixes 🐛 & Enhancements 🧚

  • Fixed member name clickable area issue on roster page
  • Fixed drafted shifts background issue on mobile app
  • Fixed log out button hiding issue on mobile app

Change Member Sequence in Roster Role View

We are excited to announce a new feature that will make managing your team even easier. With our latest update, managers can now change the sequence of team members in the roster role view.

Previously, the sequence of team members in the roster view was determined by their order of addition. This could be inconvenient when managers needed to reorganize the team for better efficiency.

We hope this makes it easier for you to manage your team and improve productivity. If you have any questions or feedback, please don't hesitate to reach out to our support team.

Shift Tagging on the Go

We are excited to announce the release of our new Shift Tagging feature on the mobile app. This feature allows managers to assign tags to any shifts on the go, making it easier than ever to keep track of employee attendance and schedule changes.

With the Shift Tagging feature, managers can assign the following tags to any shift:

  • Late
  • No-show
  • Sick
  • Shift covering

This feature eliminates the need for managers to use their laptops to do shift tagging. They can now do it on the mobile app anywhere, anytime. This means that managers can stay on top of their team's rosters and attendance even when they are away from their desks.
