Employee: self-service on web and mobile
Who this is for
Every employee, plus line managers who approve their team’s requests.
The problem
Staff message HR to ask for remaining leave days, payslips or a work confirmation letter, and HR answers the same questions repeatedly.

Honest limits
- Self-service does not clock you in or out.
- The internal requests page is off until it is enabled in the Approvals settings.
- There is no AI assistant dedicated to Employee Service.
- The mobile apps have no dedicated product page yet, so confirm their scope before promising features.
