The product is designed to answer the three questions managers ask immediately: how much time is left, who else is out, and can I approve this safely?

How it works

A simple workflow with enough operational context.

PTO Logger is deliberately narrow. It does the essential work cleanly so HR teams and department leads can move through requests without opening a second system.

01

Set up your PTO rules

Add employees, assign hours or days, and configure accrual patterns that match how your team actually works.

02

Let balances update automatically

PTO Logger calculates earned time continuously so managers are reviewing real balances instead of stale exports.

03

Approve with visibility

Request dates, teammate conflicts, and current balances are shown together so approval decisions stay fast and defensible.

Balance accuracy

  • Real-time accrual balances from employee start date
  • Negative balance visibility when you allow borrowing ahead
  • Hours or days tracked per employee

Manager workflow

  • Single queue for pending requests
  • Conflict detection by location and department
  • Approve or deny in one click

Team access

  • Works cleanly on desktop, tablet, and phone
  • Installable as a PWA for quick access
  • Simple enough for managers who do not want HR software overhead

Customer notes

“We replaced a messy spreadsheet and finally stopped debating whether a balance was current.”

Sarah T.

HR Manager, 45-person software team

“The conflict view helped us catch overlapping requests before a peak retail week got understaffed.”

Marcus D.

Operations Manager, multi-location retailer

“It feels lighter than a full HR platform, but still gives us enough control to trust the process.”

Founder, consulting firm
