“How many leave days do I have left?” Answer it in seconds, and get it right.
Leave records kept in diaries, emails and memory lead to arguments, mistakes and a hidden cost. Staff take more leave than they are entitled to. Balances pile up and are paid out at the end of the year. Worst of all, some people never take leave at all, and that is one of the classic warning signs of fraud.
Leave Ledger keeps it all in one place. Record each application, and the workbook counts the working days, updates the balance and warns you when something isn’t right.
What it does
- Counts working days automatically, excluding weekends and your public holidays, with half-day support.
- Pro-rates annual leave for staff who join part-way through the year.
- Keeps a live balance for every employee, both approved and after pending requests.
- Tracks every leave type: annual, sick, maternity, compassionate, study, unpaid, or your own.
- Flags problems: negative balances, requests that exceed the balance, overlapping leave, balances above your carry-forward limit, and staff with no leave in 6 months.
- Shows who is away each month, so you can plan cover.
- Calculates your leave liability in days, or in money if you enter daily rates.
What’s included
- An Excel workbook with no macros, which works in Excel 2007 or later.
- Space for 150 employees and 1,000 leave entries.
- Settings for your leave year, leave types, entitlements and public holidays.
- A leave log, a balances report and a month view.
- Jurisdiction-neutral wording, so you set the entitlements under your own labour law.
Who it’s for
- Small and medium businesses without HR software.
- HR officers and office administrators.
- Team leaders who approve leave.
- Schools, NGOs, clinics and professional firms.
