Welcome to Humanity's Community!

Calendar View

Please add a calendar view option under ShiftPlanning to eliminate weekends, so that more can be seen in 2 week and 4 week view.

leave schedule view- start and end time

 Under Shiftplanning, in the "leave schedule" monthly view, please add the starting time and ending time next to name of employee on their first and last day of leave. That will make it easier for us to see when someone wants a shift on a day they return from vacation, but we know not to schedule them earlier in the day. 

 

Vacation Summary Report

Hi Team,

As currently when employees are applying for leave more than 1 day, It appears to be in one line item but with the date range of 5 days. Is there a possibility for the report to have those 5 days leave appearing as 1 day leave in 5 different lines for the 5 different days? Like consecutive leaves should appear instead of date wise leave request submitted and approved against each employee. 

Thank you and looking forward

Bulk Time Clock selection

Need to be able to select bulk employees and clock them in or be able to clock them out.

IOS App: TimeClock Manage Time Sheet

Hi team, 
Please add the option where the manager can multi-select employees under Time Clock > Manage Time Sheets. This feature is available on the Andriod app and should be added to IOS app too. 

Thanks

Task Pool

It would be amazing to have a task pool where managers could add tasks that need to be done and employees could review while on shift and "pick them up" if they have any free time. we currently use Asana for this but it would be excellent to have an all-in-one solution.  

Start Date field

Need to make the "Start Date" field to accept manual typing.  For employees who have start dates from years ago, the only way you can get it to show their actual start date is to manual click back month by month.  For someone who has 20+ years under their belt, this takes a long time to do.  On top of that if there are many more employees who fall into this category, it takes forever to get back to the date you need to select.  This needs to be a typed filed as well as the current clickable field.

Clock in/out location report

That would be great if we could have an option to print/download the report for employee clock in/out locations (GPS Location)

Salary Employees | No Timeclock

We have multiple employees on salary that do not use the time clock or our required to punch in. However, we still put their actions on the schedule. 

Since they do not punch in we receive notifications saying they are late.

How can we put people on the schedule that can be exempted from punching in?

Humanity Station Notification

When employee clock in the notification which shows clocked in should be either bigger or show a green checkmark to show that the employee has successfully clocked in.

If you have enabled the webcam, it gets really confusing for employees to know if they have clocked in or not as they keep viewing the webcam option.

Invalid Timeframe

Allow clock in is set to 5 minutes before the shift. If an employee tries to clock in and they are not scheduled, the system gives an error "Invalid Timeframe". This should be changed to "Not scheduled" or "See your manager"
 

Work Unit

Hi Team, 

Please add a feature under Time Clock, where employees/manager can add work units or something similar to it, which will eventually add to the cost of that timesheet. The current work unit feature doesn't work for us, as the reporting is complicated.  

Thank you

'Select Frequency' options

I see several preset options for the 'Frequency' of recurring shifts. However, there are a few that are not listed that would make my life easier.

Our work environment runs on seven (7) possible default periods. I will list them below noting which ones are missing from the Humanity 'Select Frequency' options. Is it possible to have the missing choices added?

1. Mon - Fri
2. Mon - Thu
3. Sun - Thu **MISSING
4. Sun - Wed **MISSING
5. Tues - Fri **MISSING
6. Tues - Sat
7. Wed - Sat **MISSING

Not sure why the current ones were listed but it would be nice to have the option to add the others I have listed above.

Currently, I use the 'n' On, 'n' Off option but would rather have the defaults listed.

Payroll Reports Interface Change Request

Payroll reports come with a lot of useable options, that make the lives of management much easier to sort and pull up the exact hours. The only thing I would like to see is the ability to customize the basic report, sections displayed and highlighted in here: http://prntscr.com/pjojzx

Plus an option to sort employees differently, like from their first name or last name would be helpful as well. 

Thanks!

Dashboard Filter For Employees

Hi Team,

Humanity Tool doesn't have any feature that will help us to monitor better our Teams being the managers in Humanity. Would be good to have a filter option which will give us better view of our Team members in the dashboard (the selected employees each manager manages). At the moment I am able to see all people globally which is handy. 2nd notification option should be improved as well. I should receive the notification only from the requests sent by my Team members.

Hyperlink on IOS app

Currently, the hyperlink in a message inbox only works on Android and Desktop versions and not on IOS app. It would be great is this can work on IOS app as well.

Hyperlink on IOS app

Currently, the hyperlink in a message inbox only works on Android and Desktop versions and not on IOS app. It would be great is this can work on IOS app as well.

preferred availability

It would be helpful to have a prefer to work/prefer not to work availability option.

SSO Login

Hi team, 

Please add a Log-in using the SSO button on the desktop login page for both Mobile and PC users. Here is a screenshot for your assistance: http://prntscr.com/pj6qch 

Thank you

Auto Fill - Max no. of shifts assignment settings

If we could have a separate setting for assigning maximum number of shifts to an employees (specific shifts like Night shifts) that would be great. Currently we have a setting to set up maximum number of shifts scheduled in a row which is good but we want further setting so that we could limit the number of Night shifts per week, per employee in Auto-fill schedule.


Thanks

Client profile

Good Afternoon Team, 

I am looking to see if a feature can be added for client profiles, like our staff profiles. I have worked on many different systems in the past and i have always had instant access to both client and staff files on one system. is this possible? 

Kind regards
Cherise 

Notification

Hi Team, 

We are looking for a feature where an email sent to the manager saying ... x staff has hit x maximum weekly hours for both Scheduled Hours and Time Clock. So that we can flag them and send them early on their last day of the week. 

Thank you

Humanity and BambooHR - Time & Attendance

There should be an integration to sync time and attendance from BambooHR to Humanity.

Clock in/out for two positions

That would be great if the system can capture the position for each shift separately and we do not have to change the position manually before clocking out.

Expand Text Box When Employee Skills are Displayed

Hi,

When the "Show employee skills in the scheduler" setting is turned on, it would be nice to have the text box expanded to allow for readability when employees have multiple skill sets.
Here is an example of how it currently views when an agent has multiple skill sets - therefore I am not able to use the feature - But the feature is critical to my business.

Here's another example of an employee who only has 2 skills:

Also the font could be smaller to allow for more characters in the text box.
 

Expand Display on Multiple Days Task

When assigning a shift to an individual and a task get assigned that will last more than one day for the same person and the shift is expected to be the same each day (i.e. 8h shift), lets say for example Task is assigned from Monday to Friday from 8am to 4pm each day, the Task Box should automatically fill all 5 days or automatically duplicate the same task for all 5 days so that there is a visual representation of what that individuals is working on for the 5 days. This representation is already there when the mouse is hovered above the first day, it automatically expands and shows the other days that have the same task, but it would be nice if it showed this way permanently or if there was an option to select the way it is to be displayed.

Humanity Station should have TIPS

There should be an option to add tips via the Humanity Station App.

Selecting and Deselecting options

When choosing locations to run empty/partial shift reports, it would be helpful to be able to choose the sites you do NOT want included in the report.  It would be quicker to deselect locations than go through the entire list to select the ones we need.

Save button at Employee Assignment

It would be great if you could develop the "Save" button at Employee Assignment (Staff - Employee Assignment). 

Syncing based on Certain Criteria

Please allow us to define certain criteria to allow the sync. For example, I would like to have only 2 of our 5 teams sync from BambooHR over to Humanity.

Attachments to Instant Message

Hello,

Would it be possible to add attachments to the instant messaging feature in Humanity? It would be helpful to be able to attach PDFs to a message and send it to another person on our team. I understand this can be done through traditional email but we could absolutely use this to centralize time sheet approval procedures so that everything is in one place.

Let me know. :)

Night Colors

We work in the security profession and our supervisors are out at night. It would be great to have an individual option to invert the colors for night time while driving in patrol cars

Custom ShiftPlanning View

Hi team,

It would be a really nice feature to have as a manager to login to the Shift Planning module and set a default side panel on the Shift planning window so that every time you open up your account the same boxes are checked and you change as needed; rather then selecting certain positions every time. 

In our business case, the managers have to click multiple positions under various locations and this actually takes a lot of time. 

PTO Accural

 

It would be helpful to have a feature that would calculate PTO accrual on hours worked.  For now, I have a separate Excel spreadsheet that I use to keep up with PTO accruals and time taken and leave balance.  

QB Online Compatibility to Humanity

Over the website of Humanity, it says that ''The world's most popular online accounting platform, QuickBooks''. Which gives out the impression of ''QB Online'' versions to be compatible payroll provider with Humanity, which is not the case. 

We appreciate it highly if you can add and provide QB Online to be in the supported payroll providers under Humanity Payroll, as it would be a great help. 

Thanks! 

Tracking Performance Evaluations

Good Afternoon,

I would like to suggest a way to track when performance evaluations are due and completed. We have over 130 employees and currently we use a separate spreadsheet to track when we complete evaluations.

Staff can Add/Edit/Delete Remote Sites

We are an outreach department and the remote site feature is a large part of our work and therefore extremely important for employees other than a manager to have access. I will be temporarily changing select employees from “Scheduler” to “Manager” when we need to add an increased number of Remote Sites or a Manager is unavailable. We can use this workaround until we have found a better solution.

Please implement a setting where staff can have the authorization to access this feature despite being a "Manager" 

Blind user access

We have a blind reader using a screen reader device.  Most things work very well, except for the date and time selectors in the leave where the voice activation is not activated.  The screen reader works well for everything except date and time fields where there is nothing read to the user. 
We also have an issue with the shift planning calendar where the screen reader reads the calendar dates first, then the shifts.  We will explore this from a user perspective but would suggest you evaluate how the screen reader features behave in relation to the overall calendar.

Republish shifts

When republishing shifts it would be nice to see what shifts you are republishing. Atm it only says how many days you're republishing. 

Adding Decimals/halfs in Payroll Generic settings

Dear Team - It would be a nice feature to have the ability to edit the payroll hours with .5 being added or Subtracted. 

Our business case is as follows
 

We Run operations in multiple countries, now In Belgium, employees are entitled to overtime when they work more than 7.5h a day or more than 37.5h a week.
Currently we can only set up either 7 or 8h per day or 37h or 38h per week.



We need to be able to set up half hours so our payroll is run accurately.

Week start day

Some people say the week starts on Sunday, some say it starts on Monday.

I'd just like the choice to toggle the view between the two in shift planning.

Right now the "week" is Sunday to Saturday. But our payroll week is Monday to Sunday, so we can't match up peoples weekly hour. Having the number of hours under each employees name in Shift Planning is such a handy feature, except if I want to see ACTUALLY how many hours the employee will be paid for in the week, I have to take off the previous sunday and add the next.

 

Permission Level

I would like a toggle in the Admin/supervisor/manager permission levels that allows you to assign those permissions to a user, but make it so they do not show up on the shiftplanning screen.

We have staff who need the functions of those permission levels, but do not get scheduled for shifts and therefore should not show up on the SP screen.



 

Notifications

Ability to get a notification when an employee is removed or disabled. The event log is way too busy and with all the people we hire in the summer it would be much too difficult 

Messages in the app

It looks like you've fixed the issues of not be able to view the original message on the app once it's received so many responses, however, now we're unable to view all the responses to the messages.

Schedule hours report to include open shift hours

Hi Humanity,

Can you please look into the feature request where an option can be added to include "Open Shift" hours under the Schedule Hours report, in other words one report on both hours.

Thanks

Shift trade/release Rejection

Its the behavior when the request has been approved for one of the employees, other employees requests get rejected automatically, If that could be improved that would be great. It should either leave them as pending until it gets expired or some other way to demonstrate that the trade/release is over.

Thanks.

Geofencing enable per location

That would be great if we could use the geofencing feature for a specific location.

Delete shift templates

That would be great if we could delete shift templates being in the new shift creation mode.

Employee Counter for Each Shift

Please add a counter to the shift boxes that shows how many employees are currently scheduled to that shift. 

When I schedule my people I have to count each shift to make sure the correct number of employees was sent to each location. This means I have to manually open every shift box and count the employees names one by one. Please add a counter to each shift box that just shows how many employees are currently assigned to that shift. 

Thank you. 

Notes/Comments

It would be really nice to further differentiate notes left on specific time cards. As of now, I cannot tell the difference between employee comments or those from a manager, so we have Management use different signatures to tell them apart.

Report that Calculates Average Worked Hours

There should be a report that calculates the worker's average hours worked to determine benefits - There should be an easy way to see how many hours an employee is averaging per week over a given period of time. 

Open Shift Notification Control

The management should be able to control the Notifications for Open Shifts since we have to create these shifts well in-advanced and may end up deleting them or modifying them - hence we should be able to control the notification settings if the Shift Deletion notification should go through or not. 

We should assign tasks here for our employess

I feel that it would be better if we can assign tasks for our employees and fix a time period for that to be completed

Shift Count per month

We like to Run a report on how many shifts have been scheduled per Week, Month and year. At this time we can only run the amount of hours. 

Position dates

Please add an "hide positions until a certain date or a disable user until a certain date" option. We have hundreds of employees, each with specific positions they can work, and specific time periods they cant work them between. Instead of having to remove their positions and then remind myself to add them back at a certain time I was hoping for an option to set the dates. The problem with disabling them is they can no longer log in at all, plus we have to remember to re-enable them

Connecting to Prestige PEO?

Hi! Would love for you all to connect to Prestige PEO. Thanks!

Notification for lost "accepted" trade requests

When multiple employees "accept" a trade request, then we choose one of them, the other employees get no notification one way or another. It's confusing for them and ends up in us getting messages / phone calls asking if they got that set or why an "accepted" set isn't on their schedule. I'd ask 1) either use terminology like "bid" instead of "accept" or 2) send a notification that the trade was unsuccessful.

Custom Texts for Schedule Notification Reminders

I would like to be able to add custom text to the schedule-publication notifications and to the 24-hour and 60-minute notifications that staff receive. I would like to be able to set this text so that is it permanent or recurring within the system.

I know that messages can be added when schedules are published but I would rather not have to enter that text each time, and our staff would find the custom text more useful if attached to the 24-hour and 60-minute notifications.

Thank you,

Rob

Daily working hours to be shown in daily view.

The client wants to view the daily hours displayed on the day view just as weekly hours get shown in the week view

Breaks shown on different views

I would like to be able to see scheduled breaks on the position view, visual view, and list view of shift planning.

Date Filter

Hi Dev, 

I would like to have an option of Date Filter within ShiftPlanning so that a user has the ability to select the specific dates to view the schedule of that particular timeline and then print it out. 

As of this moment, it is not an option and some times it gets very hard to acquire the desired information. I hope that I have made my self clear and please do consider adding this in the future releases of the application. 

Looking forward to that. Thank you. 

availability changes

I would like "conflicts" to come through on the future availability requests much like it does on "leave" requests.  At the moment when someone submits a future availability request, I have to open up a second screen to see if the employee is already scheduled on that day.  If the system could tell us on the same screen as the future availability request if an employee is scheduled, it would save the time to have to look at shift planning.  

Reocurring availbilty only set by managers

Currently the availability feature is often misused by staff. I need to be able to set up reoccurring unavailability of my staff (due to class or school schedules). I want an option on this feature only usable by management (but you can have options to make available to staff(as it currently is). However, when I have make it available to staff they have misused this feature as a different way to request time off or as a way to tell me days they do not wan to work. And when I reject, they get their feelings hurt. To prevent upset employees, it would be great to have this availability feature as only available to be set by management option under the leave and availabilities option.

Recurring Availability

Hi team,

Please create a feature where we can do recurring availability just like Whentowork scheduling software. 

This will certainly benefit other clients of Humanity as well.

Thank you 

Tamara!

Early check in

The time clock option is great, but when approving time sheets, there should be the ability to view that they were there and clocked in 5 mins before shift but that is unpaid time. 

Deadlines

I think in order to streamline processes, there should be an ability to add a deadline for training. This should also include reminder notifications to complete by particular dates. 

Payroll/Cutoff

The app does not let you indicate what your pay period looks like in the back end or on the calendar. Being able to mark for staff when pay day is, is important. 

It does not allow you to select maximum hours for the pay period only max hours in a week or month which doesn't matter in every industry. Especially here in Canada. This is a VERY IMPORTANT feature that is missing.

This means i manually have to go in and check each person, figure out what needs to be payed overtime etc. which take way too much time and effort. 

It also doesn't include options for stat pay as well. 

These all render the app useless for the payroll software integration and we end up paying $60/month for an app that only schedules. 
 

Change Shift Templates

I would like to delete the shift templates that were automatically generated by Humanity and enter in custom templates. The hours of my company change seasonally, so Humanity ends up saving many different shift times as templates, and I end up having to search through a mountain of different shifts templates to find the one I am looking for.

Bulk Edit / Delete Shift

Being able to bulk edit/delete open shifts if the shift is no longer needed instead of having to delete each one individually. 

Location specific consecutive shifts

I really like that you can choose to allow or disallow whether employees can pick up a shift right after theirs ends. However, i feel this would depend on location. If the second shift is at the same location, i don't see a problem and would allow it. However, if it's an a different location clearly that wouldn't work because they'd have to travel to the next location so starting immediately after wouldn't work. 

Delete shift templates

That would be great of we could have the option to delete shift templates being in the new shift creation view.

TIME CLOCK NOTIFICATIONS ON THE MOBILE APP

Hi 👋🏻
It would be great to have another timing for the notifications on the time clock (actually you have 24h or 1h before the shift starts) after the feedbacks of our employees, 80% of them said that would be better to another reminder before the shift starts like 15min before or even 10 min before.

Thank you to take on cosideration my request.

Ismael Almeida 

Photo option at Breaks

Hi Dev, 

I would like to have an option where the photos can be taken at break time when the coffee cup icon is pressed, as this will help us to figure out that the correct person break-in/out. 

I hope this will be considered in future releases. Thank you. 

Reports on Training

Hi Dev, 

It would be nice if the reports for the Training Section can be added under the "Reports" tab in order to check the progress of the employees (section by section) rather going into each and every training module to see who has completed it and which ones are still trailing. 

This limitation is going to force me to use a different tool for training and there is no way for my managers to see their teams progress. 

I hope this will be considered in the future releases of the application. Looking forward to that. Thank you. 
 

"Preferred" Availability

When filling out availability, the employee could have a third option which would designate a time as "Available but not preferred". Then, a manager can only schedule that employee if absolutely necessary.

Set Payroll Period Separately from Calendar Start

The start of the payroll period should be able to be set separately from the Start Day for the calendar week.  For example, I should be able to make my calendar start day Sunday, but my payroll period start day Friday.  In the US, many company's pay periods start on Friday and run until the following Thursday on a one or two week cycle.  However, most people prefer to view their calendar week with a start day of Sunday or Monday.  Currently, a business must decide whether they want to have the payroll period be correct at the expense of view-ability or, have the ShiftPlanning weekly calendar easy to view at the expense of having incorrect payroll calculations.

Monthly Availability

Hi Dev, 

I would like to have an option where the employees can set their Monthly Availability and also have the ability to customize the weekly availability on a recurring basis. 

I hope this will be considered in the future releases of the application updates. 

Thank you. 

Auto-clock time increments

To add a minutes tab when automatically clocking out employees at n amount of working hours.

Conflicts

Conflicts are great, but I would like to be able to accept the conflicts to remove them form the list. 

I have some rules set up where I know there will be conflicts but these can't be removed from the conflict list. This means that I might miss the important conflicts I'm not aware of as the previous ones can't be removed without fixing the rotation. 

Colours for shifts

It would be great to be able to set different shift hours in different colours - instead of only departments. 

I would like to separate morning shifts and evening shifts with different colours in the same department so it's easier to see the pattern of the different shifts. 

 

Open Shifts should Stand out

Hi teams, it would be a great feature if the Open Shifts that still have empty slots should be represented with a different color layout - so that they stand out from the rest and make it easy for managers/schedulers to look up and allocate employees swiftly, rather then looking up close to each shift and finding the numbers manually ?

I see that this is a very vital and important feature that you are still missing here. 

Five9

Hello, I was wondering if we would be able to have an integration with Five9. Ideally, I would like to have an automatic report that pulls the daily worked hours from Five9 and connects with Humanity. 

Leave added to "Shifplanning"

Its hard to schedule when having to toggle back and forth between shiftplanning and leave to find out who is available to pick up a shift for full time employees. Please add to shiftplanning when a leave is granted. Its available on the desktop but not the mobile.

Penalty under California Break Rule

Hi Team, 

Please add the Penalty option under California break rule. Employees may voluntarily elect to skip their break, but if the company forces the worker to skip the break, that employee is owed one additional hour of premium payments as a penalty. 

Please add an option where we can add an additional hour of premium payments without changing the shift. 

Thank you. 

Custom report

Would it be possible to include unassigned/empty shifts to our custom reports?

Shift Planning

Would it be possible to run a report for only shifts that need to be published rather than have to scroll through each week/schedule?

‎Online meeting scheduler

Hi Team, 

We would like to see a feature in Humanity, where our staff members can book meetings through Humanity, and Manager can confirm the booking. An online meeting scheduler like Doodle or another appointment/meeting apps. 

Change frequency in recurring series

That would be great if we could have the option to change frequency in the recurring series.

Bonus and Commission Calculation

I'd like a feature added for including flat bonuses or commissions to the payroll total, and for that and the fact that tips are not added to the total payroll to be included in the documentation and FAQs

mid cycle pay rate change

It would be awesome if you could enable a feature that allows you to have a mid cycle pay rate change.  I need this for when I export a payroll file into Quickbooks.

Selected ability to see all schedules but not edit

It would be helpful if there was an access level where an employee can be scheduled for shifts but also have view only access for the entire department. Right now the scheduler viewer access level is not helpful for our organization, because while it allows an employee to view the schedule for the department, it does not allow for employee to be scheduled shifts. This feature is very important for us, because our Shift Leads need the ability to be scheduled for shifts, need to be able to see the shifts covered in their department (and by who), but do not need the ability to edit the schedule for their department.

Staff Permissons

That would be great if we could allow schedulers to access/manage the location for their assigned positions so that they can assign positions to the new staff on their location.

Empty Shift Report

There should be an empty shift report like the open shift report where we can obtain the following details: 

1) Name of Location/Position
2) Quantity of the empty shifts
3) Date
4) Time of the empty shifts
5) Duration of the empty shift. 
6) Accumulated hours of the empty shift.

Pay rate per shift

My employees often get paid per event, not per hour. So I would like to be able to put the event in, for example, for 45 minutes and have it count their full rate rather than 75% of it since it isn't a full hour

Notification on/off selections based on location

A great feature to add would be the ability for people to turn notifications on/off for specific locations.

For our organization, there are locations that some people don't want or need to be notified about. It would be nice for them to choose which locations they receive notifications from so as not to be inundated with notifications related to a location they don't care about.

Copy Shift Function!

I very often need to copy a shift and the dragging option only works in very limited situations. Should be a shortcut or an option from the drop down when you click on the shift, etc.

Repeat monthly by DAY instead of date

I need to be able to set our events to "the first Friday of every month" and the custom repeat options given only allow monthly repeats by DATE not DAY.

Management only access to availibility

Currently availability is either totally on or totally off.  We want to be able to accurately schedule employees to their appropriate shifts but we do not want them to have the ability change their availability because we set their availability to balance staffing levels between our shifts very carefully.  If there was an option to only allow managers or supervisors to access and request changes to the availability feature, it would help us greatly as our employees often confuse availability with leave.  

App button preferences

We would prefer that our employees only request time off using the vacation feature and not use the availability feature to request time off.  Unfortunately, in the mobile app it always displays the "Availability" feature instead of the "Leave" feature.  Because of this, employees frequently request time off as being unavailable instead of as vacation.  Being that I manage a largely elderly group of employees it is very cumbersome to explain to each employee to NOT use the availability feature and to click the "More" button to access the leave feature.

If there was an option to remove this from the app, it would greatly help this situation!

Set availability for employees

Hi Dev Team,

As per the name availability, Humanity should blank out the availability of all employees and let employees go in and set their recurring availability. Humanity's current availability feature is showing employees available to work for all days whereas we would need employees to be unavailable by default and employees set the hours when they are available.

Employees should be able to read timeclock notes

Would be great if there were a way for employees to see the notes that they leave on their own timesheets. Right now only managers can see notes. 

Call Shifts

Hi,
It would be great to have an option to assign a call shift that does not count toward total hours for the employee that also does not show up as an empty shift. We take call overnight but do not have employees working overnight shifts so when a shift is created and an employee placed on call it shows up as an "empty shift". If we assign the shift to an employee it counts toward total hours and it shouldn't.

"Employee late for work" reminder for managers

Hi Team, 

Please add 1-minute increment option in "Employee late for work" reminder for managers/schedulers. At the moment this is set to 15 minutes increment. I would like to set this to 7 or 8 mins and this is not possible at this time.  

Thank you 

Work Units

Hi team,

I would suggest please introduce work units by adding parts to 1.25, 1.50 etc...

This will certainly benefit other clients of Humanity as well. 

Thank you and looking forward

Message wall feature upgrade

While I really love the message wall, I would love to see it show in the form of a pop-up after very new entry when an employee logins in. The ability to add images, documents and attachments would also be greatly beneficial. As of right now I have each of my employees reply to every wall post with 'read' so i know that they were notified but a read receipt feature would be ideal as well. 

Option to Refresh leave

Hi Dev, 

I would like to have an option where the management can refresh the leave or change the remaining leave days as of this moment, if anything changes or we need to reset the entitled leave days, this cannot be done in the middle of the year and have to wait till January 1. which is very un-practical. 

I hope that this will be considered in the upcoming releases of the application, Looking forward to that. 

Thank you for your time. 

Addition of minimum yearly hour required

Currently, the setting allow for entering a minimum number of hours per week as employees are required to work a minimum number of hours per year.  I have a 7 week rotating schedule where staff could work as little as 24 hours/week or as much as 60. 

I need a mechanism to track how close staff are to their yearly minimums.  Those furthest away from that threshold e.g. 40 hours/week x 52 = 2080 hours would be scheduled for shifts first over those that have met or exceeded that threshold. 

An example: a vacation coverage shift has come up.  Employee A is schedule for 2000 hours for the year, while Employee B is only scheduled for 1700 hours.  Auto-schedule would fill the shift or Shift Planner would "suggest" Employee B is the preferred candidate for that shift and offer it Employee B, before others.  This is now a manual process that requires pulling a report every time a shift comes up.

Dashboard

Hi Humanity, 

On the Dashboard page, the Birthday and Anniversary widget should load 30 days of data. Seven days of data is not enough. The mobile app load 30 days of data, so should the web app. 

Thank you.  

Copy repeating shifts

It would be nice if when you copied a shift, you could copy its recurring settings.  For example:

• Original shift = Monday 10-3pm, repeated 7 days to Sunday.
• Copy shift to next Monday and retain the same repeated settings so we can repeat attributes across the entire week (ie the same employee for one week).   

Currently if I tried this, it would copy each shift individually as opposed to as part of a series.

Save ShiftPlanning Report Templates

We often print our schedules out of the ShiftPlanning module in a few different but very specific ways.  It would be helpful if we could save different report templates instead of having to mark all of the correct settings every time we print out our schedule.  

Mass edit availibility

It would be useful at my workplace to be able to mass edit staff's weekly availability, as we are a shift based workplace.  We want to be able to set everyone's availability to match our shift times.  We are also seasonal so we have a lot of turnover and want to be able to mass enter our employee's availability instead of manually changing all (150+) employee's availability.  

Acknowledge/Un-acknowledge tick signs

Please use a different tick sign if an employee UN-acknowledges a shift.
Currently an acknowledged and an UN-acknowledged shifts are the same.
Maybe an "X" if the employee UNacknowledged a shift? I can not tell unless I hover over the tick mark to see if it is acknowledged or UN-acknowledged.


 

Edit recurring series

That would be great if we could add a new shift to the existing recurring series.

Include Scheduled Breaks in Scheduled Hours Report

suggestion: it is most helpful to have the ability to extract an excel report of the combined scheduled hours, worked hours and breaks that any given team does on a daily basis. is it possible to include this feature on the reports function? thank you

Remove shift templates

That would be great if there could be an option to remove shift templates in the new shift creation mode and we do not have to enable old shift creation.

Daily vs Monthly Future availability

Hi Dev, 


I would like to have an option where the staff can submit the Future availability on a daily and monthly basis.  It becomes annoying is they can ALSO mark themselves as being unavailable for the day in the weekly availability section. This does NOT show on the leave calendar.

I hope I made myself clear and do contact me if further information is required. Looking forward to that. Thank you. 

Add published time to shift history

It would be great to get the time that an individual shift was published added to the shift history for that shift.  This would be useful for auditing, ensuring shifts are published with enough notice to employees, and to be used as evidence to show that a shift was published if an employee claims they never saw the shift.  Currently you can only see when publishing events take place in the event log but it does not indicate which shifts were published in that publishing event.

Schedule shortcut

That would be great if we could have an option to create a shortcut for the schedule we want to see. For example: I want to see the schedule for only 6 employees.

I know we can select the names from Advanced filters and select primary location in the profile but we are looking for an easier way to make a shortcut. 

Comment field for leave requests

Make the comment field a required field for when employees are requesting off. I think it will help managers and schedulers prioritize time off requests without having to spend extra time reaching out to employees for additional information.

Put "close" instead of finish time

Hi Dev, 

I would highly appreciate if an option is added where the scheduler has the option to put just "close" instead of setting the finishing time of the shift. 

I am having issues as I put 6:30 pm for a shift but then if the team member stays beyond that they feel as though they are "staying late" or past their shift. 

If added, it will be of great help and will reduce the inconvenience which my staff members have to go through. Please consider adding this as an option in the upcoming releases/updates of the application. 

Looking forward to that and thank you for your time. Highly appreciated. 

 

Bypass Password Sequential Restriction

Hi Dev, 

I would like to have a feature/option added, which will allow the management to bypass the sequential feature of the password. 

I can understand that it is for security reasons, however, we use student ID's as the password, and can not use a number like 00785678 due to the last three #'s and it would be of great help if such feature is added in the upcoming releases of software. 

I hope this will be considered. Looking forward to that. Thank you for your time. 

Listing Shifts By Title

Good Morning,

Would like to be able to see only one shift at a time. Additionally a way to change how shifts are sorted in the list view. As an example we assign employees by Titles -- in our case we have station numbers so as an example Station 1, Station 2, etc... the individual employees are assigned to a station so when they come into work we have the schedule posted and they are able to see what station they are assigned too which would be nice if we could put them in order.

Thank you,

Cliff

Publishing Shifts

It would be great to have the ability to republish (previously published) shifts that are still "empty"

Selecting a Position

Hi team,

To pick my position they're not in alphabetical order and no search option is given in that case.. the only option is to scroll through the list of randomly ordered options..

screenshot: http://prntscr.com/p5ihzo

It should be in alphabetical order or have a search bar to select. This will certainly benefit other clients of Humanity as well. 

Thank you and looking forward
Jessie!

Add Select All/Unselect All Button

Hello!
Enjoying all the updates to Humanity! Can you please add a "Select All" and "Unselect All" button under Scheduler Permissions and Position Assignments. Really anywhere there are multiple checkbox options would be helpful as I have 87 different position assignments and have to check/uncheck each one individually.

Thank you!

Timesheets with Multiple positions

Gregg (Manager) would like to have an option added so that employees who are working on multiple positions while they are clocked in, can select multiple positions and it will show all those selected positions in that one timesheet under the Reports. The employees do not have to clock out and clock in again to select the other position and hence generating multiple timesheets just to show in the reports that employee worked on multiple positions that one day. There should be an option so that the employee just have to clock in once and select multiple positions and it should be showing all those positions for that one clocked time instead of multiple clock ins for that day. 

Thanks.

Supervisors could be assigned positions to manage

Emory (Manager) would like to have an option added with Supervisor permission level so that just like schedulers are assigned to specific positions to manage, just like that Supervisors could be assigned to specific positions reason being too many restrictions for "Scheduler" permission level one of which is Supervisors cannot see disabled employees under Staff tab or in Reports, so they could not re-activate disabled employees.  

If an option like that is added with Supervisor level, that would be great.

Thanks.

Message Inbox Drafts

That would be great if we could save message as Drafts if we do not send it OR want to send it later.

Shift End Notification

Hi Dev, 

I would like to have an addition in the notification where the employees are informed about their scheduled shift end time, just like the upcoming shift reminder. 

This will make our work easier as we do not have to edit the timesheets anymore. Looking forward to that. 

Thank you. 

Shift Trade Reporting

It would be nice to be able to see who traded with whom, and also the date the employee and manager accepted the request.
The current report for shift exchanges just shows you how many trades a person has for any given time frame.

Costing data setting

Hi Humanity Team,

Under Shiftplanning settings, there is a settings reads as

"Show costing data in the scheduler *Advanced"

Can you please look on adding a new option where it can be restricted to management only and if needed it can be enabled for the employee too. Currently it applies on all of the users added under the account.

Thanks
