Improvement

Tediously adding missing timesheet data is now a thing of the past! When employees forget to clock in for their shifts, you can bulk import the scheduled data as timesheets, and Shiftie will manage creating them for you quicker than you can say “Shift Scheduling Made Simple”!

Ready to approve timesheet entries for payroll but don’t want to approve them individually or all in one go? You can now select the entries you want to approve and, at the click of a button, have them all approved! Similarly, approved entries can be selected and quickly unconfirmed for further editing before exporting.

Additional data is now available on the Digitickets integration schedule footer overlay. View your redemptions alongside prebooked tickets for deeper insights into scheduling requirements and schedule shifts where necessary.

Leave and unavailability events used to cover multiple days on the schedule; these have now been broken into events for each day for easier management and understanding of time used per day, allowing more awareness of shift availability.

Understanding what’s happening throughout the working day is important so your staff understand their responsibilities. We’ve added a new widget to the top of the mobile dashboard to ensure all employees are aware of your announcements at first glance. Additionally, the desktop Upcoming Events widget can now be interacted with to view more details of each event.

Struggling to find the employee you need to manage in the team list? With additional team sorting options, you can now choose how the list is sorted, so it’s quicker to find the employee and update their details. Top tip: Use the bulk actions to make team updates much quicker!

Job role ordering adds additional structure to your online schedule and printed copies, ensuring everything is easily accessible and in the right place. No more time spent scrolling through the schedule trying to find employees; instead, they’re right where you’re expecting, ready to assign shifts.

The employee time-off interface has been reimagined, offering a more transparent and user-friendly breakdown of an individual's current leave entitlements and remaining balances.

The shift conflicts panel on the schedule provides schedule managers with improved visibility and control over potential shift conflicts. Each conflict can now be addressed directly from the scheduling interface, leveraging additional insights and shift management capabilities.

The Shiftie development team are continuously looking for ways to make your scheduling more efficient, and we’ve been hard at work this month making lots of small changes to improve your experience. From speed enhancements to usability improvements, we’re always on your side to save you time.

The navigation menus have been standardised to simplify moving around Shiftie, and colour contrasts have been updated to improve accessibility. Additionally, the settings menu now includes a search function to help quickly find the settings you’re looking for.

Shiftie now allows shift managers to adjust shifts that started in the past. Shifts that have not been clocked into will be fully editable, while shifts that employees have already clocked into will be restricted with only the shift end time, tags, and notes able to be adjusted. This enables managers to tell their staff to come in earlier or later and add additional details at the last minute.

The create and edit shift form has been split into two tabs; basic and advanced details. From the basic tab, you can set the shift times, job role and location, as well as any breaks or allocated shift areas. The advanced tab lets you add additional details such as tags and notes. This cleaner interface smooths the process of scheduling shifts.

Be one step ahead and understand your upcoming Shiftie subscription payments. Whether you're paying annually or monthly you’ll have insights into your next employee or package charges, helping you budget accurately.

The create and edit shift form has been split into two tabs; basic details and shift breaks. Ultimately, the breaks tab will include the ability to assign shift areas for the scheduled employee. Sessions are ordered chronologically for easy management of breaks and areas.

A new shift details panel will provide more detailed information about each shift for employees and shift managers on both desktop and mobile devices. Quickly view all the information about a shift and act on it as necessary; no more guessing whether it’s the right shift to claim, edit, or approve.

A new schedule setting enables employees to claim open shifts on their days off and notify them that these shifts are available to pick up. Not a fan? This can be turned off so that staff can only claim shifts for the days they usually work.
