Toil balance

Toil balance is an ongoing calculation between your TOIL accrued and your TOIL leave taken.

At the end of a year, the TOIL balance and any final leave allowance not used are combined and feed into the hub carry over rules.

In your leave management screen, you can also optionally show leave for your team colleagues in the calendar, helping you to plan your time-off better.

Tempo will maintain a calculated balance of time used and time remaining, in relation to all entitlements and time-off approved, across all types and including a TOIL calculation.

Booking leave

Leave time-off, as well as other forms of time-off, can be requested via your account, in the Time-off management for the hub.

Your time-off requests and approved status, show in the table above your leave calendar

Request time-off by clicking the button ‘Book time off’.

This opens a popup to take some details and, if you are rostered, will then automatically calculate the deductions for each day in your work plan over the time period you request.

Once approved, this can be edited by your Manager, if needed.

Requests and approvals generate email notifications to keep you and your team leave manager up-to-date and move the process along.

Reporting TOIL

In your leave management screen you can also report TOIL.

Reporting TOIL (when approved) accrues TOIL as an additional form of time-off entitlememnt.

When taking time-off you can use TOIL leave as an option. This will then deduct time off from the TOIL accrued.

Below your calculations, there is a link to popup a TOIL balance for the financial year

Reporting leave amounts manually

When creating a time off event, if the person who created it chose to manually enter the amount of time being taken off, you may see the total amount of leave being spread over days in a way that doe snot match your expectations.
It is not usually necessary to enter an amount of time-off manually but the option is there as an override.
Normally, a user just enters their dates away and the system uses thire work plan and other calendar logic to intelligently calculate their time off for each day
If the amount of time off is manually input however, the system cannot do such an intelligent calculation and simply takes the total time given by the user and splits it evenly over the days that the time of spans
You can fix this by opening the event to edit and removing the manually added amount then saving the event
The system will automatically intelligently calculate the time as described above
