Supporting clients with leave in days

Encouraging clients to educate their employees

Employers should explain to their staff why leave applied for is shown in either hours or days.

Improving Affinity to make life easier for everyone

We have system features which help to prevent clients from making mistakes, encouraging them to think about what they’re doing when it comes to leave in days. Here are some examples:

  • Providing online help and pop-up hints that explain how each Affinity field works.

  • Offering an auditing service that helps clients to optimise their configuration for leave in days.

For Affinity staff, we also have interactive guides here in Stonly which help us to understand the various scenarios and any required configuration.
