The My Space tab in Zoho People is a personal hub that brings together tasks, approvals, reminders, time logs and more for each employee, all in one place.

Key features

  • Activities & Reminders: approvals, reminders, tasks and HR updates like work anniversaries appear here instantly.
  • Approvals: view, approve or reject requests. Timesheet and leave approvals have their own tabs, and urgent items appear in the Actions List.
  • Attendance, Shifts & Check-In/Out: check in or out and track your logged hours, or view shift details and request a shift change.
  • Leave Management: apply for leave or check your available balance in the Leave tab.
  • Timesheets & Time Logs: review, manage and approve timesheets, or use the Start Timer to log time manually.
  • Files: quickly access files you’ve uploaded or that have been shared with you.
  • Career History: a timeline of your date of joining, role changes and overall experience.
  • Feeds (Announcements): stay informed on company-wide updates and share announcements.
  • Surveys & Feedback: take part in ongoing surveys and check your feedback, or give feedback from a colleague’s profile.
  • Goals: view your current goals or set new ones.
  • Profile & Personal Settings: edit your profile, or use the ellipsis icon (⋯) to update personal settings and permissions.
  • Customise My Space: use the customise icon to enable or disable specific tabs.

Dashboard, calendar and navigation

  • Customisable dashboard widgets, with Org Widgets letting admins apply a layout company-wide.
  • A calendar showing monthly attendance, holidays, absences and check-in or check-out times.
  • Quick navigation icons for Settings, Operations and Reports, plus alerts, a search bar and a chat bar.

Delegating approvals

When you’re unavailable, you can delegate your approvals so nothing is delayed.

  1. Go to Home > My Space > Delegation > Add Delegation.
  2. Choose the Delegator (who is assigning approvals) and the Delegatee (who will manage them).
  3. Set the type to Temporary (with a date range) or Permanent, choose who to notify, add a description if needed, and click Save.

Tips

  • Use the customise option to streamline your view based on what you use most.
  • Check the Feeds tab regularly for company-wide announcements.
  • Set up delegation early before going on leave or travel, so approvals aren’t held up.
