# Vacation Planning Chaos

[Team Synerion](https://blog.synerion.com/author/team-synerion)

 Jul 2, 2008 6:49:00 AM

Vacation planning can be a frustrating and tedious process that can be streamlined into your [time and attendance solution](http://www.timetech.ca).

As your staff is planning summer trips to their cottage, family vacations to the Caribbean or just extending their long weekend to enjoy the nice summer weather; someone in your HR department has to manage the chaos associated with [vacation planning](http://www.timetech.ca).

[TimeTECH](http://www.timetech.ca) automates the vacation planning process by allowing your employees to check available vacation time and request time off via iBrowse ([TimeTECH](http://www.timetech.ca)’s internet gateway)

**Benefits of using Absence Request functionality include:**  
• Reduce paperwork by requesting and approving all absence requests electronically  
• Eliminates communication errors by ensuring accurate information being passed on to the right people  
• Request and approve absences quickly and conveniently   
• All information is given up front to supervisors before approving an absence with forecasted balances  
• Employees get notification of request via email and iBrowse  
• Send requests to multiple supervisors   
• Automatic Default Job/Activity Allocations  
• Use iBrowse and Absence Planning Module to further enhance functionality
