We’re excited to introduce our new Overtime Pre-Approval and Post-Request workflow, designed to give managers more flexibility and finance teams better cost visibility — all with smart automation behind the scenes.
What’s new?
Managers can now request overtime in a single, unified flow that supports all real-world scenarios:
- Single employee or entire team
- One specific day, selected days, or a full month
- Custom overtime hours per day
- Pre-approval (before work) or post-approval (after work) requests
Smarter approvals, more control
Approvers can:
- Approve fully or partially
- Adjust the approved hours quantity
- Approve only what’s justified — no need to reject the entire request
Once approved, the system automatically splits the request into employee-level sub-requests, each routed according to the employee’s approval cycle and policy — no manual follow-up needed.
Real-time cost forecasting
Before approval, approvers can see:
- Forecasted overtime cost
- Clear breakdown of what will be paid immediately versus accrued based on payroll rules
This ensures better budgeting, transparency, and no surprises at payroll time.
Why this matters
- Fewer manual requests
- Faster approvals
- Policy-aligned routing
- Clear financial impact upfront
This enhancement makes overtime management simpler, smarter, and fully aligned with operational and payroll needs.
