Leave tracking for companies, in any country
Who is off, and how many days everyone has left — without one more spreadsheet
People ask for time off, their manager approves it, and the balance updates itself — counted against the leave rules and public holidays of the country each person actually works in.
No card needed · Set up in an afternoon · Nothing to install
How it works
Three steps, and nobody counts anything
The whole loop is asking, deciding and knowing where you stand. Everything else — the counting, the holidays, the part-time shares — Dayrule does on its own.
A person picks their days, sees what it costs them before they send it, and their manager gets it waiting. Approve or reject in one click, with a reason that stays on the record. Half days count as half.
Entitlement comes from the person’s country, their age and their contract; carry-over from last year, capped the way your company caps it. Nobody edits a number, so nobody can get it wrong — change a setting and every screen recounts.
One set of numbers
The calendar, the balance and payroll always agree
Four places show days off, and all four read the same rows. There is no second spreadsheet to reconcile, and no month where the export says something the calendar does not.
The first screen: who is away right now, who is away this week, what is waiting on you to decide, and whose balance is nearly gone.
A calendar of your people against the working days of their own country — public holidays, rest days and transferred working days included, each marked for what it is.
A month of absences as a CSV your bureau can import, counted per day and per person, with the separator their spreadsheet expects.
Every country, by its own rules
A person in Budapest and a person in Lisbon are not counted the same
Leave is national law, not a company preference. Dayrule keeps one rule pack per country, and each person is counted by the pack of the country they work in — on the same screen, in the same company.
Hungary’s rules are in full: the base days, the extra days by age, and the ones for children, including the higher entitlement for a child with a disability. Every other country starts from its statutory minimum, which you can set yourself.
Holidays are per country and per year, transferred working days included — a Saturday a decree turns into a working day counts, and the weekday it replaced does not. A year Dayrule does not hold yet is marked, never guessed.
An 80% contract gets 80% of the days; somebody who starts in June gets the part of the year they are there for. People who leave keep their history, so last year’s export still adds up.
Today is today where the company is, and the week starts on the day your country starts it. Every date, number and country name is written the way the reader’s own language writes it.
Instead of
The spreadsheet and the e-mail chain
This is what Dayrule replaces, and what it does not ask of you.
Somebody keeps a tab per person and a column per month. The entitlement was worked out once, by hand, and nobody remembers how. Requests live in e-mail, so the answer is wherever the thread is. On payday, someone counts the days again for payroll — and the sheet and the calendar disagree by two.
One place people ask, one place managers decide, one set of numbers everything reads from. Nothing is deleted, so a year later the record still shows who asked, who decided and when. Set it up in an afternoon; no installation, no card, nothing to keep in sync.
Start
Your company, running in about ten minutes
Nothing to install and nothing to migrate: create the company, paste your people in, and send everyone their own sign-in link.
- Create the company — name, country, time zone. Your rules are set from the country you choose.
- Add your people one at a time, or paste the list straight out of the sheet you keep them in.
- Each person gets a single-use link and signs in with their mixtape account. From there they ask for leave themselves.
