How PTO counts toward office days
In the office days calculator, enter PTO and holidays as one number of workdays in the period. A day should not be both an office day and PTO.
When “PTO and holidays lower my target” is on, each of those days comes off the number of office days required. When it is off, the target stays the same. Either way, PTO still occupies a workday. PTO that hasn't happened yet takes up days you could have gone in.
Same week, switch on or off
Wednesday, October 28, 2026, target 3, one PTO day, nothing worked yet, today still open. With the switch on, the target becomes 2.
Week of Oct 26, 2026
0 of 2 office days this week
Go into the office the next 2 days to be in compliance.
With the switch off, the target stays 3. That one PTO day fits on Monday or Tuesday, which have already passed, so three workdays are still ahead.
Week of Oct 26, 2026
0 of 3 office days this week
Go into the office the next 3 days to be in compliance.
PTO on days that have not happened yet
Monday, October 26, 2026, is still open, so the whole week is ahead. Three PTO days, with the switch off and a target of 3, leave only two days you can still attend. Three required days do not fit.
Week of Oct 26, 2026
0 of 3 office days this week
You can't reach it this week.
Questions
Does a holiday count the same as PTO?
Yes. Enter PTO and holidays as one number, once per workday. Don't also count that day as an office day.
What if PTO does not lower the target?
The required number stays the same, and those days still use up workdays you could have spent in the office. If more days are required than the workdays you can still attend, you can't reach it this week, month, or quarter.
