Email absence summaries

With Timetastic you can choose to receive a summary of absences for the week ahead, or just a summary of today. Both cover the department you are in only.

Not everyone will remember to login and check Timetastic each morning, nor is that practical for many users. Instead you can stay up to date by receiving an email summary.

You can switch these on/off and set your preferred delivery time in 'My preferences'.

Setting your preferences:

To get to 'My Preferences', click your profile image at the top right in Timetastic.

Under 'Email digest', toggle the options on and enter the delivery time (and day for the weekly summary).

There's the option to include public holidays on your digest emails.

Daily summary

Your daily summary shows today's absences for the department that you are a member of. In an attempt to save your inbox from clutter you'll not get one if there are no absences on that day.

Weekly summary

Your weekly summary shows absences for the week ahead, and again relates to the department that you're in. If there are no absences all week, you'll still get an email just so you know everyone's in.

Here's an example:

Additional notes:

For clarity, if you're the department boss for two or more departments, or an admin user, you will only get the one email - for the department you are in.

And if you have both weekly and daily summaries switched on, to avoid duplication we won't send you a daily summary on the same day you receive the weekly one.

If the privacy setting is enabled to hide leave types, then it will also honour the setting when emailing summaries. Staff members will show as 'Absent' rather than the leave type. Please see Privacy modes for more information on this setting.
