absentify product changelog and release notes

​

Improvements

• When you invite a user whose email still belongs to a workspace that is being deleted, absentify now shows a clear message to wait until deletion finishes, usually within a few minutes, instead of telling you to delete the account or contact the other workspace.
• absentify now checks the email again when you submit an invitation, so you can retry after deletion completes without leaving the page.
• You can now request a new PIN if workspace deletion cannot be completed because the PIN expired or was rejected, without losing the feedback you already entered.
• absentify now keeps your cancellation feedback filled in if you close the confirmation dialog and continue, or if deletion fails and you try again.
• When you cannot add or turn on a webhook because of your plan or limit, absentify now prompts you to upgrade instead of only showing a generic failure message.
• absentify now keeps the control for email alerts about Microsoft sync problems disabled until your preference has loaded or finished saving, so it does not flip back briefly by mistake.
• absentify now closes the account menu automatically after you choose an option.
• You can now sign out, open absentify in Microsoft Teams, and open “Imprint”, “Privacy”, and “Terms” using the keyboard.
• absentify now always shows the names you set for integrations, groups, and users as readable text in delete confirmations and error messages, including in Insights and notification emails.
• absentify now closes the menu in calendar sync and Microsoft group sync before the dialog from that menu opens.
• absentify now opens help and info explanations when you tap or click the icon, including on touch screens and in Microsoft Teams.
• absentify now keeps links, list rows, and other actions usable when you tap a help icon or badge, instead of blocking them.
• When you open a dialog, absentify now moves focus to the first field instead of an info icon.
• absentify now finishes merging two workspaces into one when duplicate users still have a linked directory profile, a pending activation, or scheduled archiving on the source side.
• When you change a user’s email to an address that still belongs to a workspace that is being deleted, absentify now shows a clear message to wait until deletion finishes, usually within a few minutes.
• The user import now explains when a row is skipped or blocked because the email still belongs to a workspace that is being deleted.
• When Microsoft group sync finds a user who still belongs to a workspace that is being deleted, absentify now waits for deletion to finish, retries adding them automatically, and skips repeating administrator alerts while deletion is in progress.
• After five wrong confirmation PINs when you delete a workspace, absentify now invalidates that PIN so you must request a new one before you can try again.
• When you add or edit a webhook, absentify now checks that the address is valid, uses a secure link, and points to a server on the public internet, and shows clearer messages if the link is wrong, unreachable, or on a private network.
• absentify now removes extra spaces at the start and end of a webhook address when you save it.
• absentify now follows redirects more reliably when sending webhook notifications, and turns the webhook off with an explanation if a redirect would send data to a private or internal destination.
• When a download or delete cannot run because you are not signed in or lack permission, absentify now explains what went wrong in your language.
• absentify now shows team names and team sizes only after you confirm your email when you sign up with a work email and your company already uses absentify, and until then shows a message to open the confirmation link we sent you.
• When you refresh the page while creating a new workspace, absentify now reopens the signup wizard with your progress restored, instead of the screen to join or create a team.
• absentify now keeps the country and region you already chose when you continue signup, including when location-based suggestions load after you return.
• When you sign up, absentify now blocks creating another workspace if your organization already uses absentify and has turned on protection against additional workspaces, and tells you to ask your administrator for an invitation to an existing workspace.

​

Improvements

• absentify now shows dialogs and overlays on the page in front of the in-app assistant when both are open.
• absentify now opens the “Privacy information” explanation in the in-app assistant when you click or tap the icon, including on touch screens.
• absentify now counts expired compensatory time off in the expired total on allowance cards, the year overview, and exports, instead of subtracting it from adjustments.
• When you edit allowance or carry-over on a year that includes expired compensatory time off, absentify now keeps the remaining preview and the save explanation in line with the stored balance.
• When you delete an allowance rule or remove a user’s rule assignment, absentify now warns you if their allowance would go negative for certain years, not only when it would drop to zero, and explains that earlier manual adjustments stay in place.
• absentify now keeps what you have already loaded and what you are typing in organization and user settings when the page refreshes data in the background.
• absentify now keeps you on the form instead of sending you to a generic error page if a refresh fails briefly but the form is already on screen.
• When you edit a department, absentify now shows a clear loading state for default allowance rules, lets you retry if they fail to load, and blocks saving until they are ready so existing rules are not cleared by mistake.

• absentify now takes leave booked for next year into account in those remaining figures only when it can change how much is available in the current period.
• absentify now shows in the “Remaining” column of the allowance year table how much is left for the full year when that total differs from what is available today.
• absentify now combines expiry explanations in the “Remaining” column into a single info icon instead of several separate icons.
• absentify now skips repeating the same expiry information when carryover and adjustments or credits already describe it.
• When you edit yearly allowance amounts, absentify now keeps the hour and day fields in their columns so they no longer run into each other on smaller screens or when the settings area is narrow.
• absentify now chooses a table or card layout for the allowance year table from the space available in that section, so it stays usable when a sidebar uses part of the window.
• When you delete an allowance rule and choose “Manage members manually”, absentify now explains how unused allowance will carry over, based on the rule you are removing.
• If someone else changes an allowance rule or its members while you are deleting it, absentify now shows a clear message so you can reload the page and try again.
• When you pick a date range on the start page, absentify now uses the correct singular or plural form in hints and day labels in all supported languages, for example “1 day” instead of “1 days”.
• absentify now lets carried leave days expire at the end of the carry period when leave in that window was covered by time-limited credits that run out before the carry deadline, so balances after the deadline match what you can actually book.
• When you cancel email confirmation during a user import, absentify now takes you back to the previous step instead of marking every row as failed.
• absentify now keeps other workspaces’ names and administrators hidden when you sign in with a personal Microsoft account.
• When you choose “Next” on the Microsoft groups step during a user import, absentify now continues to the next step instead of starting invitations for users you already uploaded.

• absentify now hides the Microsoft groups step during a user import when you are not signed in with a Microsoft account.
• absentify now shows “Approved automatically” instead of naming the requester as the approver when a leave request is approved automatically.
• absentify now uses the same wording in request details, history, email notifications, Microsoft Teams cards, calendar PDFs, and exported reports.
• When approval was automatic because no one else could approve, absentify now explains that there is no other approver for that person.
• absentify now uses your selected app language instead of English for screen reader announcements and hidden control labels, including in dialogs, pagination, breadcrumbs, tours, and the in-app assistant.

​

Days left today

​

Improvements

• When a user in a group booking has a representative scheduling conflict, absentify now shows a clearer explanation in the status list instead of a technical error.
• absentify now keeps confirmation dialogs open while an action is running, so you cannot dismiss them with Escape, an outside click, or the “Close” control until the action finishes or shows an error.
• absentify now shows a clear message that the connection failed instead of generic browser error text when the connection is unavailable, including in confirmation dialogs, leave requests, allowances, calendar sync, Microsoft settings, and automatic replies.
• absentify now takes days that must stay available for later years into account in your leave balance and what you can book, so the figures match what you can actually use.
• When you create or edit a leave request, absentify now shows clearer messages if part of your balance is already needed for a later year, including when you can still submit the request.
• absentify now shows in the allowance summary how much is already set aside for a later year and breaks this out in the details.
• absentify now calculates your leave balance and year-end carry-over correctly when your work anniversary falls on the first day of the fiscal year, including when carry-over into the new year is zero.
• absentify now keeps saving dialogs open until the save finishes, including leave requests, edits, settings, allowances, and schedules, so you cannot dismiss them with Escape, “Cancel”, or the “Close” control while a save is still running.
• absentify now stops waiting when you are offline or the connection fails, and shows a clear message that the connection failed instead of hanging or showing vague errors.
• absentify now returns you to the form or lets you retry when bulk absence booking or archiving users cannot finish because of a connection problem.
• absentify now processes remaining users only once when you choose “Continue” while unarchiving, activating, or deleting users.
• absentify now uses shorter, friendlier wording when it asks why you are deleting your workspace, switching to a smaller plan, or canceling, and encourages honest feedback.
• absentify now makes the guidance on those feedback fields easier to find when you use assistive technology.
• absentify now shows an error and lets you try again if sending the deletion PIN does not work.
• When you change a yearly allowance in a user’s allowance year table, absentify now explains in the save dialog whether the change is stored as more or less than the automatically calculated amount, and that the difference stays even if the rule or employment dates change later.
• The in-app assistant now tells you when workspace data access is turned off, so you know it can only give general answers from the documentation and cannot look up your absences, balances, or requests.
• Workspace administrators can now open the setting to turn workspace data access on directly from that message.
• absentify now uses clearer privacy notes and descriptions for the AI assistant and its organization settings about when workspace data is used and where messages are processed.
• absentify now takes you straight to the workspace data access setting when you open it from the assistant.

• absentify now skips approval emails, Microsoft Teams messages, and reminders for leave requests when the approver is inactive or archived.
• When you try to remind an inactive or archived approver, absentify now explains that they cannot approve, instead of a generic failure.
• absentify now opens Excel exports for a custom date range without Excel asking you to repair the file.
• absentify now uses clearer titles on the worksheet tabs that list absences in Hungarian, Italian, Portuguese, Russian, Turkish, and Ukrainian.
• When a date range makes tab names too long for Excel, absentify now uses shorter names for the allowance and absence tabs while the downloaded file name still shows the full period.
• If allowance figures for a year change while you are editing them, for example after a recalculation, absentify now stops the save, saves nothing, and shows a clear message so you can review the row and edit again.
• When you edit a user’s allowance by year, absentify now treats a year as managed manually only when every rule in that year is a personal zero-day rule, so mixed years and shared zero-day rules no longer show the wrong wording in the hint to set this year’s value, the calculation summary, and the rule preview.
• When you delete an allowance rule, absentify now shows how each affected user’s allowance changes for the current and next fiscal year, including a warning if a user would receive nothing.
• When you remove a rule assignment from a user, you can now see what they will receive afterward, how remaining rules cover that period, and a warning if their allowance would drop to zero.
• When you delete a rule that is the default for new users or departments, absentify now explains who will get which rule—or that you enter amounts yourself—after the change, including when the switch happens on the first day of the fiscal year.

• absentify now wraps action buttons in alerts on narrow screens so longer labels stay inside the alert instead of overflowing.

timeghost connection with new keys

​

• Leave type privacy settings now include a preview of what colleagues see versus what the person, representatives, approvers, managers, and administrators see.

Improvements

​

Improvements

​

Parallel - First response decides

​

Improvements

• absentify now requires a message for senders inside your organization before you can save an out-of-office template, and a message for senders outside your organization if those replies are turned on.
• absentify now shows a clear note when the inside-organization template is empty, so no automatic reply is sent until you add text and save.
• absentify now still uses your inside-organization message when only the outside-organization message is empty, instead of sending a blank reply to senders outside your organization.

​

​

Calendar subscription links

​

Improvements

• absentify now syncs absences to timeghost more reliably when a sync is interrupted or runs again, so the same absence is less likely to appear twice.
• When you sign in with Microsoft using a guest account from another organization, absentify now shows a dedicated message explaining why the account cannot be linked and how to sign in with your own organization’s work account or contact support.

• absentify now makes warnings easier to read when you change a shared allowance rule, including who is affected and why you are asked for a change reason.

• absentify now shows two months of the calendar beside the request details panel on wider screens.
• absentify now stacks each label above its value in the request details side panel so the details stay readable in the narrower panel.
• When you preview a recurring absence, absentify now matches warnings about your representative’s availability to the actual times you are away, so part-day absences and different working hours no longer produce misleading conflicts or missed overlaps.
• When you replace a timeghost sync that kept past entries, absentify now lets the new sync pick up those existing entries instead of leaving gaps or duplicates.
• After you remove a timeghost sync, absentify now lets other active syncs for the same timeghost workspace sync days that were previously blocked by overlap with the removed sync.

• absentify now explains in the workspace settings tour and related onboarding text how leave types and allowances work together, in the same order as the settings menu.

• absentify now explains when you import users that leaving “Display Calendar Weeks” empty applies your workspace default.
• absentify now rechecks only the leave types you removed or assigned a different category when you save timeghost sync settings, so saves finish faster and skip an unnecessary full re-sync.
• absentify now includes new absences when you add departments or leave types to a timeghost sync, without rechecking the rest of the connection.
• absentify now updates existing holiday entries in timeghost so they stay correct when you turn public holiday sync off; turning it on or adding departments while holidays are enabled updates holidays without a full re-sync.

• absentify now shows a clearer message when it cannot be reached because of a connection problem.

• absentify now notes in payroll exports when absences were changed after the month ended.

• absentify now shows hour-based allowances in a consistent hours-and-minutes style on the allowance card, the year overview, and related hints.
• When you pick dates where your available balance changes over time, absentify now summarizes the important windows, including the tightest one, so you see what actually limits the request.

• absentify now never shows more remaining balance for a specific date in your allowance view than you can actually book for that date.

• absentify now takes you through a guided review when you change the fiscal year start month, instead of saving immediately, so you see the allowance impact before it affects everyone.
• absentify now explains that changing the fiscal year start recalculates allowance years for all users, not only the calendar view.
• When a recurring absence does not fit your balance, absentify now tells you how much you will have from a future date, not only how much is added on that date.
• absentify now shows the amounts in those hints the same way leave balances appear elsewhere, including hours and partial days.
• While you set up a recurring absence, absentify now no longer shows incorrect employment start or end warnings on the date fields that stay hidden in that mode.

• absentify now treats a negative balance as caused by an administrator reduction only when that reduction was made in the year you are viewing; reductions from earlier years no longer change that display.
• absentify now matches the year-start date in allowance rule summaries with the year used to calculate your balance, including fiscal years that do not begin in January.

• absentify now hides the allowance rule summary for unlimited leave types in user allowance settings, so it no longer implies a fixed limit.
• When you switch a user to an allowance rule that follows their personal anniversary, absentify now explains what happens to their current balance at that rule’s first anniversary, including any carry-over cap and how long carried days stay available.
• For allowance rules tied to a personal anniversary, absentify now applies carry-over limits and expiry to the user’s full remaining balance at each anniversary, including days from a previous rule or from manual adjustments that have no expiry of their own.
