How to use SalonIQ's holiday planner to monitor your teams holiday

The Holiday Planner allows you to see total holidays booked and remaining holiday days from an allowance you set plus review total sickness, unpaid holiday and maternity

The Holiday Planner gives you visibility over how much holiday each team member has booked and taken once you have set an allowance. The allowance can be set in days or in hours. Please note though, if a basic rate is set for a team member, the holiday entitlement mirrors this. So if they are paid hourly the entitlement needs settings an an hourly figure, if daily a daily figure.

This is entered by going to:

Menu > Settings > Team Members > Team Members > Choose your team member > Commissions

If the team member is paid daily OR if the holiday entitlement figure you wish to work with is a daily figure leave the 'Paid hourly' switch as shown Screenshot 2023-03-16 at 14.59.14

Then enter their allowance in the Holiday Entitlement box. You can see here it confirms the figure needs to be a daily figure.

On this page you can change the salon to see the number of each attendance type (Holiday, unpaid holiday, sick and maternity) the team member has taken or booked in that salon or across all salons.

You can also choose to display a team members overview or the whole salon for a holiday year of your choice.

When displaying all of your team members at once you will see a number inside the attendance type to show you how many team members are marked as holiday/ sick etc...

Then if you hover over the box it shows you the teams names.
