The goal of Dynamics 365 Human Resources is to transform and connect the experiences of a Human Resources Professionals, Employees and Managers. One of the key parameter to achieve this transformation is to provide the key data to all employees in the organization easily!

Read on to understand how D365HR leave and absence calendar will help in this regard.

Why do you need a leave calendar?

Let’s say Harry applies for vacation on the 12th of October 2020 and he is chatting with his team member Ron and realize that Ron is having a fun long weekend with his son from the 9th October 2020 to 13th October 2020. Sooo Harry might have to discuss this his manager to say he wants to change his leave since he realized another team member is already on vacation during the same time😐

Not fun right!! So having a leave calendar helps your organization on the following lines:

  • Employees will be able to check who in the team is available
  • Manager will be able to check who in the team is available or not available before approving team members leave
  • HR Professional’s are able to track who is available when in the entire organization in a graphical overview.
