Sense HR v6.3.1.0 introduces a series of improvements to Time Off and the Company Calendar.

Administrators have more flexibility when configuring entitlements and booking rules, time durations are easier to understand, and improvements to the Company Calendar provide a clearer view of workforce activity.

Administrators can now change whether an entitlement is measured in Days or Hours, even if bookings have already been created against it.

If existing bookings are affected by the change, Sense HR warns the administrator before the change is saved and flags the affected bookings for review.

This uses the same review process already used when working schedule changes affect existing bookings.

Entitlement configuration mistakes can be corrected directly in Sense HR without raising a Support request, while affected bookings are identified so they can be reviewed.

For Time Off events linked to an entitlement, administrators can now control whether partial-day bookings are allowed.

Where partial-day booking is enabled, the minimum booking unit can be set to:

When Quarter Day is configured, users can make quarter-day and three-quarter-day bookings as well as half-day bookings.

Partial-day entitlement settings

Quarter-day booking options

Time Off booking rules can more closely reflect your organisation’s leave policy, including organisations that allow employees to take leave in quarter-day increments.

Time durations are now displayed in a familiar hours and minutes (h:mm) format instead of decimal values across Sense HR.

This applies when reviewing time information in areas such as attendance, bookings and reports.

Time information is easier to understand at a glance, without needing to convert decimal values into hours and minutes.

Event grouping has been restored in the Company Calendar.

Bookings for the same event type on the same day are grouped into a single Calendar entry. Selecting the event shows the employees included and their individual booking details.

Personal Planner continues to show an individual employee’s own booking as a continuous event.

Busy Company Calendars are less cluttered, while users can still open a grouped event to see who is included and review individual booking details.

This release also includes security improvements and maintenance updates identified through our ongoing security review process.

These updates continue to strengthen the security and resilience of Sense HR.

Sense HR v6.3.1.0 gives organisations more flexibility when managing Time Off and improves everyday usability across Sense HR.

Administrators can correct entitlement measurement settings without Support intervention, configure quarter- or half-day minimum booking units, and users benefit from clearer time-duration displays and improved event grouping in the Company Calendar.
