Getting started

- Create your account and organisation Sign up for Rotaleave, confirm your email and land in your new organisation — free for teams of 10 or fewer, with a 30-day trial first.
- Set up your organisation The Rotaleave setup wizard: where and how you work, features, leave year, allowances, leave types, bank holidays, working hours, people and approvals.
- Invite your team Invite people to Rotaleave one at a time or in bulk with the staff CSV — roles, departments, start dates and allowances explained.
- Departments and teams Organise people into departments and teams in Rotaleave — cover limits, parent departments, managers, clock-in settings and default working hours.
- Working-hours templates Define working patterns once — 4-day weeks, part-time, half days — and assign them per person or per department. Allowances pro-rate automatically.
- Common questions Quick answers to the questions people ask most about Rotaleave — allowances, cancelling bookings, approvals and the locked pay period.
- The practice company and guided tour Try Rotaleave in a pretend company called Oakford Mill: how admins enter and leave it, switch person, take the tour, and what is kept.
- The organisation chart What the Organisation Chart Tree shows, who can see it, what admins can change from it and how your structure decides who approves leave.
