Welcome to the updated version of Employee Time Tracking and Leave Management from TimeTac. In addition to a more modern appearance, here’s a brief summary of the new features and changes you will find.
Create Tasks
You can now create up to 10 tasks to track time on. This gives you a better overview as to where employee time is being invested. You can create these tasks within the “Settings” menu.
Time Tracking QuickStart
We’ve given you an improved set of time tracking controls. See your currently running task and duration at a glimpse. You can quickly change task via the dropdown button.
2 familiar buttons for stopping tasks and adding memos have also been conveniently relocated here. Finally, the new break button: quickly switch to tracking your break time. Finished? Click the button again to start the previous task once more.
“Ciao” and “Salut”
TimeTac is now available for use in Italian and French. Each user can specify their own language preferences within their User Settings.
Holiday Planner
The “Leave Day Planner” is now the “Holiday Planner”. You can now access the Department and Annual Calendars directly within the Holiday Planner too. Click on an absence request in the calendar display to view the request details and cancel it with ease. Multiple absences on a single day now have an improved display.
Header
Your Refresh, Help and Logout buttons have been moved slightly, and are accompanied by a new profile image. This image is displayed in various areas and reports of TimeTac. Your User Settings have also moved from the Dashboard to within this image.
Department Calendar
The new dropdown allows you to switch between a single month display and an overlapping display; easily see how requests will affect the weeks prior or upcoming.

Absence Requests
You can now define a replacement for when you are requesting time off. Colleagues will know who to contact if they have urgent matters relating to your role or work. Whether this replacement role needs to first be confirmed by the replacement is definable.
If you are interested in this new functionality, then please get in contact with your account manager.

Employee and Date Filters
The filtering options for employees and time frames have been relocated to a central focal point for easier navigation. You can also directly search within this employee filter too.

Reports
All reports are now conveniently located within a “Reports” menu. You can also define who has access to which reports within the “Report Permissions” menu, found within “Settings”.
Company Holiday
Specify company closures for specific departments or the whole organisation with ease. You can also control which type of absence this will be classified as.

Menu Alterations
To finalise, there have been a few minor structural changes. “Working Time Models” are now known as “Work Schedules”. They, along with “Public Holidays”, can now be found in the “Settings” menu.
