Improvement

You're now able to add even more detail when importing employees into Shiftie, helping to save time when getting set up.

We've improved the Shiftie dashboard to make it more useful than ever! The new version includes a range of personal and team summaries to help make your schedule as efficient as possible, as well as highlighting any items that need attention.

When printing your schedule you can choose whether to include any unpublished shifts as well, helping to customise it to your team's needs.

We've expanded our shift deletion options; when you have multiple identical open or unassigned shifts you can select how many you want to get rid of instead of having to choose either one or all of them.

We've tidied up the schedule! If you have more than one type of unassigned or open shift set up for a day they’ll now stack one on top of the other to save space. Clicking on the top one will display all the others, as well as giving you the option to add more.

The notifications section has been becoming steadily more obsolete as we’ve introduced Requests and improved the dashboard, and we’ve now removed it altogether. You’ll still receive all the same notifications as before, but now they’ll live in more logical places in the app, instead of all being lumped in together.

You can now bulk assign leave approvers and set public holidays on the Leave tab in the Team section, saving you time when managing your employees.

Fed up of unscheduled shifts running on for days or weeks when your team forget to clock out of them? Us too; that's why we've introduced a new auto-clock-out setting. Going forward, unscheduled shifts will automatically end after 12 hours if they aren't stopped before, with the timesheet defaulting back to a 1-hour shift, ready for you to edit as required.

You can now assign employees to schedules instead of locations and view multiple locations on the same schedule, giving you more ways of configuring your rotas and making it easier to keep track of your team.

Are your employees in a perpetual state of amnesia about their shifts? Fear not, we've now added pre-shift reminders that'll make your team's life easier. Now, you can effortlessly schedule shift reminders to grace your employees' inboxes before their shifts begin. Want to give 'em a nudge 15 minutes, 2 hours, or 12 hours ahead of time? We've got you covered on all fronts.

Simply head on over to your settings, click on notifications, and voila, you'll find this option ready and waiting to be set up. Say goodbye to shift no-shows.

Say goodbye to frantically Googling timezones; if you have team members who work in different parts of the world from the one you’ve set against your Shiftie account then they’ll be shown the company timezone next to the time clock.

Plagued with a dodgy internet connection? Fear not; you’re now able to download the day view as a CSV to serve as a backup for emergencies.

We’ve updated Day View to make it easier to see what’s going on at a glance. Job role colours now pull through, we’ve added an indicator when viewing ‘today’ to show what time it is currently, and the interface as a whole has been streamlined to make it clearer.

Any location restrictions you’ve set for clocking in will now apply when your team clock out, too. This helps to prevent employees from clocking out when they’ve already left the site.

We've noticed that some staff can get a little confused when seeing unscheduled shift options available, which can affect their timesheets.

Unscheduled shifts are your secret weapon for last-minute emergencies when you unexpectedly need to draft an employee into work. When used correctly can be a big help to your business. 

To prevent your staff from clocking in for an unscheduled shift when they're already on the rota, we've introduced some additional settings to give you more control. 

Now, as well as the option to enable or disable unscheduled shifts you can also only allow employees to clock in for an unscheduled shift if they don't already have any shifts scheduled for that day. It's all about giving you the flexibility you need.

Managers can clock employees in and out of their scheduled shifts from the time clock page, making it easier to keep timesheets up to date.

Job role colour coding will now show when you print your schedule, as well as on the online version.

The system will now remember the day or week you’ve been viewing in the schedule, so if you navigate away and come back it will default to what you were looking at. You can still click the ‘Today’ button to return to the current week, as well.

List shifts in order of when they start during the day, making it easier to check that you’ve got enough coverage at all times.

Job roles now have assigned colours, making it easier than ever to spot them on the schedule. You can update the colours for each job role in your settings, giving you hours of fun getting your colour combinations just right.
