This small update contains a number of new features. In summary:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Details of each update are included below, and you can also explore the full range of Holiday Tracker features<\/a>.<\/p>\n It\u2019s now possible to specify working patterns in multiple weeks that then \u201croll\u201d on repeating themselves. When adding a new Working Pattern from the Employment History page, you can now click the Rolling Pattern tab to specify multiple weeks:<\/p>\n You can specify the start date as usual, but can also select the number of weeks you want in the pattern (up to 10), and then pick the working days for each week of the pattern.<\/p>\n The Absence Detail Report enables you to drill down into the records that make up the absences in your data:<\/p>\n You can filter by date range, tags and absence type, or enter an employee\u2019s name to run the report specifically for that employee. For example, to get the start and end dates for any sick leave for Eric Employee this month, enter the start and end of the month, enter Eric Employee in the Employee box and select Sickness from the Absence Type dropdown.<\/p>\n We initially focused our marketing efforts on companies in England, so The Holiday Tracker previously only supported English Bank Holidays, but as we\u2019ve grown, we now have customers in other countries so have adapted to support the different public holidays of other countries, and we can even support a mixture where you can specify the public holidays to be used on an individual basis. Including the ability to ignore public holidays altogether:<\/p>\nRolling Working Patterns<\/h3>\n
<\/p>\nAbsence Detail Report<\/h3>\n
<\/p>\nAlternative Public Holidays<\/h3>\n
