Replace leave spreadsheets and approval messages with online requests, real-time balances, manager approval queues and reliable leave history — from the first request to a clean, audit-ready record.
What leave management software covers
- Guided employee leave applications
- Real-time leave balances and accruals
- Manager approval queues and email alerts
- Configurable leave policies and blocked dates
- Immediate employee request history
- Organisation-wide leave visibility
Online leave requests and real-time balances
Employees submit leave and work-from-home requests through a guided form that validates dates and balances before submission. Casual, sick and earned leave accrue automatically to your policy, so nobody has to ask HR how many days they have left.
Manager approval queues and leave history
Managers approve or decline requests from one live queue and see team availability at a glance. HR keeps a reliable, audit-ready leave history with policies, accruals and carry-forward handled automatically instead of in a shared spreadsheet.
Policies that enforce themselves
Notice periods, blocked dates, carry-forward caps and probation rules are configured once and applied to every request — no manual policing, and no exceptions quietly slipping through.
Frequently asked questions
What is leave management software?
Leave management software lets employees request time off online, routes those requests to the right approver, tracks leave balances and accruals automatically, and keeps a complete history of every request. BestLMS replaces leave spreadsheets and email or chat approvals with one reliable workflow.
How does BestLMS handle leave balances and accruals?
Balances update in real time. You configure how each leave type accrues — for example monthly casual leave or a bi-annual sick-leave credit — and BestLMS credits it automatically, deducts approved leave, and applies carry-forward and encashment rules to your policy.
Can we set our own leave policies and holidays?
Yes. Leave types, per-type entitlements, notice periods, company-wide blocked dates and probation rules are all configurable, and new requests are validated against those rules before they reach a manager.
How is BestLMS priced for leave management?
BestLMS starts at ₹99 per user per month on the Core plan, which covers leave and WFH, the employee directory, approval workflows and email notifications. Every plan includes onboarding support.
