When someone has holiday approved, it integrates with our calendars to show ‘Out of Office’.  Is there anyway we can switch it so it shows as ‘Holiday’?

 

Also can we switch this action on for Volunteering and WFH / Company Visit which are both absence types we have created?

Hi @jo.kansagra,

With the Calendar integration, absences are transferred to employee’s calendars (Google Calendar, Microsoft Office Calendar) and will be displayed as “Out of Office”.

I can understand why customizing the name of each absence type would be useful, and I would like to encourage you to post this suggestion of improvement in our Ideation area. This way, other users will be able to vote for it, and the suggestion will be shared with our product team.

In order for us to fully understand your idea, I share with you a couple of questions that your description should clarify when posting in the ideation area:

  • What would you like to achieve with Personio? What issue do you need to solve?

  • Why? What would be the added value for you?

  • How are you solving it right now?

The more details, the better! However, remember not to share any personal or business data with the public.

Make sure to add the link to the idea in this thread, so that other users that find your question can upvote it.

Regarding your second question, absence entries assigned to the absence type category Remote work will not be transferred into employee’s calendars. You can check the Category of an absence type by going to Settings >Work Hours and Absences > Absence and clicking on the absence type. Category is displayed under General settings.

You can find more information from our Help Center in these links:

 Thank you for your questions and feel free to reach out again. 😀

Best,

Steve
