See leave usage across your team, not just requests

The Absence & Balances report shows what your team has taken, what's scheduled, and what's left — for any period, by person or by policy. Four numbers at the top — remaining balance, taken, scheduled, and absence rate — give you the snapshot; the table underneath breaks it down further. Filter by member, policy, team, or balance.

Learning to use Toggl is a breeze, because it's highly intuitive and simple. It ushers you along quickly so that you get back to work right away and start tracking your time immediately. The free plan is generous and could be more than adequate for solo workers or even small groups of up to five people with light needs.

Testimonial
It's not one of those apps where you need to spend half a day figuring out how to actually use it: sessions can be started as they happen or added later, and once the app has got a feel for your schedule and how you work, it'll even make suggestions about what you want to track next.

FAQs

What is Time Off Pro?

Time Off Pro is a paid add-on for Toggl 2.0 that turns personal time-off logging into a full team system — with approval workflows, accrual balances, custom leave policies, and team-wide visibility, all connected directly to capacity planning.

How does PTO tracking work?

PTO tracking records how much paid time off each person has accrued, used, and has left. Good tools update those balances automatically as leave is requested and approved. Toggl does this for every policy you set, so no one has to reconcile a spreadsheet.

Is PTO the same as vacation?

Not quite. PTO, or paid time off, is the umbrella term for any paid leave, including vacation, sick days, and personal days. Vacation is one category within it. Toggl lets you track vacation on its own or roll it into a broader PTO policy.

What software tracks PTO for a team?

Toggl connects approvals, accrual balances, and custom policies, then feeds approved time off into your capacity view.

Do I need Time Off Pro to log my own time off?

No. Every paid Toggl 2.0 plan includes a personal time-off log by default — you can record and see your own days off without the add-on. Time Off Pro adds approvals, balances, policies, and team visibility on top of that.

How long is the Time Off Pro trial?

30 days, no credit card required. Each organization gets one trial, across both Toggl Track and Toggl 2.0.

How is Time Off Pro billed?

Per seat — you pay only for the members assigned to the module, not your whole organization. It shows up as a separate line item on your existing Toggl invoice.

How can I enable Time Off Pro?

An admin can start a free 30-day trial or subscribe directly from Time Off settings. Your organization needs an active paid Toggl plan, or an active trial, to keep Time Off Pro after the trial ends.

Who can approve time-off requests?

Team Leads can approve requests from their own team; Owners and Admins can approve anyone's. Regular members can request and view their own time off and balance, but can't approve requests.

Can I see how much leave my team has used?

Yes — the Absence & Balances report shows leave taken, scheduled, and remaining by person and policy over any period, plus an overall absence rate, exportable to CSV or PDF.

What counts as "taken" versus "scheduled" leave?

Taken is approved leave on or before today; scheduled is approved leave still ahead, plus any pending requests in the period.

Can I enable Time Off Pro on the Free plan?

No. Time Off, including the personal log, requires a paid plan — Starter, Premium, or Enterprise. Time Off Pro itself needs an active paid plan or its own trial.
