About supplementary balance in hours

The supplementary balance is a flexible balance that can cover, for example, other vacation, 6th vacation week, care days, or other company-specific days off – depending on how it is set up at your company.

This guide shows you how to request hours from your supplementary balance.

How to request hours

You can request supplementary balance in hours via the mobile app, Outlook app, or web portal.

1. Create a registration

  • Click “Add registration”
    ​

  • Select supplementary balance (or the name your company uses)

2. Choose date

  • Select the date you want off

Enter start and end date to book a period.

The green balance box shows:

  • How many hours you have available

  • How many hours you are requesting

  • How many hours remain after registration

3. Specify time period (for less than a full day)

  • Enable “Show hours” to book hours during a day

  • Adjust start and end time

You can only select hours if you are booking single days

Use hours when:

  • you only need part of the day off

  • for example, if you leave early or arrive late

Requesting unearned hours

It is not possible to request more hours than you have earned.

If you try:

  • a red balance box will appear
    ​

  • the request cannot be completed

FAQ

Why can't I select hours?

If you can't register supplementary balance in hours, it's because your setup is only in days. In that case, follow this guide instead.

Why can't I save my registration and get a red box?

If you try to request more hours than you have available in your supplementary balance, the balance box turns red and blocks the registration.
