As an expansion to its growing web-based business application suite, PlanMill now delivers PlanMill Absence - immediately available as a standalone product that can also be deployed as an optional module to existing PlanMill users. This robust software solves issues of absence management, improves workflow, and reduces operational costs of companies and organisations.
Request, accept, schedule, calculate, and get statistics for absences--all in one place!
When complex corporate human resources (HR) systems get clogged with payroll issues related to employee absences, PlanMill offers a unique and easy-to-use tool for small to mid-sized companies and a low-cost solution for a large group of corporate users.
PlanMill Absence enables efficient management of vacations and leaves, eliminates expensive needless paperwork, and dramatically reduces the extra costs of human resources management from the company's perspective.
"The potential to change a company's entire HR culture is great," Thomas Hood, PlanMill's CEO reveals, "it's possibilities in workplace management have been hailed already prior to its release."
PlanMill Absence's basic function is to manage the workflow for requesting and accepting absences. Additionally, it will perform the annual holiday calculation based on the absence entries in the system and easily imports and exports data within demanding HR systems.
Keep track of staff vacations and save corporate costs
PlanMill Absence does away with tedious but common workplace hassles by:
- Projecting and planning for future absences (generate work schedules and time reports automatically)
- Automating the request and acceptance of absences
- Calculating the amount of time lost to absence in organisations
- Importing and exporting data with HR systems
- Enabling annual holiday calculation (Finnish annual law implemented by default)
- Reducing absence and absenteeism.
PlanMill Absence can be readily deployed for new users or as part of PlanMill release 12.0, complementing other new modules with enhanced features and major usability improvements, such as E-Invoice, Import, Timer and Open API.
All modules are integrated into PlanMill's ‘software as a service' (SaaS) CRM, Project, PSA, and ERP products and deployed either as cloud-based or on-premise, according to customer requirements.
