The reality of leave management today
A simple PTO request triggers a cascade of manual work. And HR is stuck in the middle of all of it: The typical experience:
Employees email HR or submit forms that sit in a queue
HR manually checks leave balances before forwarding to managers
Managers approve via email, creating no paper trail
HR manually updates HRIS, calendars, and payroll
Team members don't know who's out until they check the calendar
Overlapping requests create conflicts no one catches
How this flow looks in Triform
Employees submit leave requests via Slack or a simple form. Triform checks their balance, routes to their manager, collects approval, updates all systems, and notifies the team — all automatically. HR only steps in for exceptions.

HR ops without the admin burden
Leave requests flow from submission to calendar automatically. HR only handles exceptions, not routine approvals. This means:
- Employees get instant feedback on their requests
- Managers approve in one click with full context
- All systems stay in sync automatically
