Bindle overview

What is Bindle?

Vacation & PTO tracking software for growing teams.

Give staff and managers direct access to request, view and manage their paid time-off.

• Full visibility on who’s off next week via integration with your existing Outlook, Google, or Apple Calendars.

• Check accurate, real-time PTO balances at anytime and manage visibility for the team.

• Automatically notify the right people about PTO requests and decisions.

• Track all PTO & vacation calculations in one easy, error-free place.

Detailed Features:

Bindle is a web-based time off authorization and management system which supports multiple types of time off. The system can be used for time off requests, approvals, annual leave balance calculations and tracking, time off reporting, and more. Bindle can be configured to match your existing time off policies perfectly, or you can use Bindle's intelligent defaults.

Bindle allows users to add people to the system and invite employees by email, calculate annual leave allowances, set standard public holiday calendars from the built-in selection or create their own calendars to reflect their business’ holidays, and assign each employee an approver who is responsible for approving or rejecting their leave requests. Employees can view their remaining time off balances and leave request histories for both rejected and approved requests.

Bindle enables employees to submit requests for time off online, with email notifications automatically sent to the relevant approver when a request is submitted. Approvers are shown how many other employees already have leave booked across the requested dates, and can use this to inform their decision. When a request is rejected or approved, the employee is automatically notified. Approvers can also reverse their decisions at any point, with employees notified of the change. Users can also set approvals to occur automatically for some or all employees. Booked and pending leave requests are displayed, color-coded, on the wallchart, indicated alongside any public holidays and upcoming company events.

Key benefits of using Bindle

  • Approvers are automatically sent email notification of new requests, and when the request is approved or rejected, the requester is automatically emailed the decision.

  • Users can change their leave requests after submission, with a further approval required if the request had already been approved, and approvers can reverse their decisions at any time, with users notified if this occurs.

  • The inbuilt wallchart shows color-coded approved and pending leave requests, with support for half days and public holidays.

  • Bindle includes basic public holiday calendars for each user, with weekends not considered working days, and users can create their own calendars to suit different holiday arrangements.

  • A read-only version of approved bookings can be viewed in Microsoft Outlook, Google Calendar, Apple Calendar, or other programs with iCalendar format support.

    Additional days can be added on to leave balances by administrators if necessary, such as when an extra weekend day is worked.
