Time off — without
leaving a gap.
TLM runs your leave requests, PTO balances, and coverage in one place — so people get their time off and you’re never caught with too many key players out at once. Requests route for approval, balances update themselves, and a shared calendar shows who’s out when. And here’s the part worth noticing: TLM built this to fit a real customer’s need — during implementation, not in some future release. That’s how TLM adapts to the way you actually work. Because TLM is two apps on one system, people request and approve in a browser while HR owns the rules.
leave requests · PTO balances · coverage protection · approvals
Everything a leave system needs — plus the coverage guard most miss.
Request leave in a browser
Anyone submits time off from any device — dates, type, and a note — and it routes straight to the right approver. No form on a clipboard, no email to HR.
Approvals with a signature
Managers approve or decline with an e-signed, audit-trailed sign-off — so every decision is recorded, not lost in an inbox.
Balances that keep themselves
Accrued, taken, and remaining PTO update automatically as requests are approved — so no one over-books and HR isn’t reconciling a spreadsheet.
Coverage protection
See who’s already out before you approve — so a functional area never loses too many key people in the same week. The safeguard a calendar alone can’t give you.
A shared team calendar
Who’s off, and when, at a glance — for planning production, projects, and staffing around the time your people have earned.
Built to fit — fast
Leave Management exists because customers needed it — so TLM built it, during implementation. Your process gets a fit, not a workaround: configured in the Main App, extended in the Web App, on your own server.
This isn’t a standard module. It’s proof.
You need it. So we build it.
TLM never shipped a “leave module.” Real customers hit a real problem — managing time off and protecting coverage — so TLM built this to fit, right during implementation. Custom Forms itself was born the same way: from customers who needed something off-the-shelf software didn’t offer. Because every company runs TLM on its own server — not comingled into one multi-tenant application — the software can bend to you. And once your system is validated, you decide when updates apply — so a change lands because you asked for it, never because a vendor pushed it to everyone at once. That responsiveness is one of the hardest things a one-size-fits-all cloud tool can match.
One system. Two apps. The right tool for every person.
TLM runs as a deep desktop/network Main App and a modern browser Web App on one shared database. HR owns the rules; everyone else just requests and approves.

“Is engineering covered for the August release?”
Ask Claude in plain English — who’s out next week, whether a critical area is thin on a given date, how much PTO liability is on the books — and get an answer grounded in your live leave records, no report-building required.
Built on the same rails as the rest of TLM.
Leave Management stands on Custom Forms for capture, Electronic Records for approvals and the audit trail, and your employee records for people and roles — so a workflow HR dreamed up inherits the same control, security, and reporting as every regulated process in your QMS.
Have a workflow that isn’t in the brochure?
Leave is just one example. Bring the process your business runs on that “no software does” — and in a 20-minute demo we’ll show you leave, coverage, and approvals live, then how you’d build yours the same way.
