Welcome to Humanity's Community!

BambooHR - 2 way sync

Hi team, 

It will be nice to see Humanity 2-way sync with BambooHR. Is there something you will be implementing in the future? If No, kindly add that on your roadmap

Thanks. 

Undo Shiftplanning Changes

 I'd like to be able to undo a shiftplanning change, or multiple changes, done in a certain time period (for example: every schedule updates entered on a Tuesday morning are all wrong, but Tuesday afternoon updates are correct) or within specific dates (everything from Aug 6 through 14th needs to be reverted, for example)

Permissions according to skills

It can't be too difficult to add some extra layers to allow for more specific privileges & permissions. For example, allowing Scheduler/Supervisor/Manager Permissions to be assigned at the Skill level, or even Employee level, instead of just the Position level

Another request is to be able to apply more than one Position to a shift.

How to add a location map
 

Bamboo HR Sync

It would be great if we could have the option to sync Leaves and Employees OR any of these two options. At the moment, when we disables "Employee Sync" it disables "Leave Sync" as well.

There should also be an option to adjust the integration to only sync with bamboo for particular people/teams.

Message Inbox should have folder/labels

To organize my inbox better to be able to find files, it best to have categories so that sorting is done for easier access.  

Message Inbox should have folder/labels

To organize my inbox better to be able to find files, it best to have categories so that sorting is done for easier access.  

API Call to upload Files for Employees

There should be an API CALL to upload files for employees where we can attach relevant files and payslips.

MILAGE

BEING ABLE TO RECORD MILAGE WOULD BE A HELPFUL ADDITION TO YOUR APP 

Report that shows Scheduled Hours vs Actual hours

There should be a Payroll report that should show the following: 

1) Employee Name
2) Schedule Date and Time
3) Clocked Date and Time

This report should be sorted alphabetically by employee then location and then date including the payroll data

Removal of the de-notification

It seems as if every time a person signs up for a shift, everybody who had previously acknowledged that shift has to re-acknowledge. This seems like a pointless task. I am requesting that employees who had previously acknowledged a shift not be de-acknowledged every time a new employee signs up.

Allow Specific Employees to have Specific Managers

We are a Field Organization, so we are currently utilizing "Positions" to mark different geographical customer sites around the country.

We are regional, so that there are about 5-10 Field Employees in each Region, with 1 Manager per Region. 

When creating a Shift and having Notifications go out, we want the Manager of an Employee in a given Region to always receive notifications for that Employee, even if they are scheduled by another Manager or for another Region. We DO NOT want Notifications to go out to ALL Managers for EVERY Shift for EVERY Employee.

Therefore, I request a feature that allows 1 or more managers to be tagged to each employee profile, so that Managers will only receive Notifications for their own Direct Reports.

Disabled Staff Notification

A popup should come up with a text box when the disabled button is hit, then a notification should go out to all the managers with that info from the text box, stating the name of the disabled employee and the name of the person who disabled the staff. 

 

Employees requesting shifts to work update

I have had a few employees request that they be able to request to work a partial shift that is entered or be able to make a note about a request they are putting into the system.  We are a Dental temp agency and we have hygienists and assistants who pick up shifts that are available for offices.  Sometimes the temps are only available until a certain time, but want to request to work that day.  It would be great if they could let me know their needs that day in a note when requesting to work so that I get that message right away.  RIght now, they have to request the shift and send me a separate message in the app or a text message to let me know their needs.
Thank you!

Survey

I would like to be able to survey my staff via the system e..g. we are thinking about having dress down Friday do you think this a good idea yes / no and have a poll - could you enable a feature like this please?
Obviously more complex surveys would be good too!
Thank you

Trade/Release Shifts

The client wants that managers should be able to request for trades and release of shifts on employee's behalf. 

Sage compatible payroll report.

I would like to request that Sage is added to the list of providers that the payroll report can be exported to.

Task management

Hi, Humanity
 
Hope my mail is a good insight in helping you improve.
 
We are a translation company with a size of 50 people. I, as a project manager, have looked carefully into your scheduling system. Your server is fully responsive from here in China. But there are four features that we desire badly but not available in Humanity.
 
We are working on a 9am to 6 pm basis. We have rather “only task based schedule” to “shift based schedulle”
First is that we want the schedule to be restricted from 9 am to 6 pm, which means if I assign a task of 4 hours to a translator on 4pm. It auto ends on 11 am the next day. We also want the schedule to skip the lunch break, which is ofc the same time window everyday.
 
Secondly, we usually schedule a translator for the next two weeks. This means if we insert a urgent task today, we have to rearrange all the schedule for the next two weeks. We are using excel spreadsheets right now. this has long been a headache. We need a feature that auto postpone the tasks afterwards when we insert new tasks (rather than just telling us there’s time conflict and does nothing). It’s just like you drop an icon on window desktop and the other icons auto moves away to make room for your new decision.
 
Third one is not generally useful for all your users, but I mention it anyway. Usually we have only “translation ” and “review”, two roles. We have collected speed data for each translator. i.e. 4000 words per day. We really want the schedule to auto calculate the time need for a specific word count number so that we don’t have to do this each time we create a task.
 
 
Example： employee Peter has speed 4000words per day for translation.
When I create a task with 1000 words start a 5pm, the software auto ends it at 10am the next day and make room for it if he is already occupied, without excessive alerts of time conflict.

Entitled Leave Rules

I would love more features added to Leave.

For example, our company accrues vacation time each payperiod rather than "all at once" at the beginning of the year.  Setting the ability to award X number of hours per pay period that would add up to a total of say 2 weeks per year, etc.

Additionally, vacation time rolls over from the previous year.  I don't see the ability to make those types of edits in the staff files.

Also having the ability to designate Leave time in hours (not just in days)

Setting Rate Cards with fixed amount

Hi Dev, 

Please add an option where the management can set the shift differentials rate in terms of fixed amount rather than percentage through the rate cards. 

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

Looking forward to that. 

Timesheets Approvals

The client wants to just straight up turn timesheets approvals off. Please look into this. 
 

Copy a scheduled week/day out over any timeframe.

For teams that do a schedule rotation every quarter, it would be extremely helpful if we could create a schedule week and then "copy" that week over how every many weeks/months we would like going forward. Currently, if we would like to have a week repeat over 12 weeks, we have to copy the previous, then copy the two previous and then copy 4 and so on. Have a "copy to date range" option would save the user a ton of time. For example, I create a team schedule for week 1 of the upcoming quarter and then I tell the system to copy this over the next 11 using whatever that date range would be. This would be a single use setting and I would not need to use the copy schedule option multiple times to accomplish the same goal.

This would also be a great feature for single days. Drag and dropping a day so it copies to the next one is neat, however, if I want that one day to copy over the whole week, I have to do each day one at a time. If I could create a shift on a Monday and then tell the system to copy that over (date range) whole week, I would be able to do it in one update and not 4-5 as it currently stands. 

TL;DR allow copying for days/weeks over a wide selectable date range

Time options

I would like to have the option to set my schedule times in the drop down menu to be at only the hour. Currently I am given each hour in 15 min intervals as an option which makes scrolling to a new hour take much longer. Since I already have the option to type in a specific time if needed, the drop down could be reduced to each individual hour only. For example, instead of having 1pm, 1:15pm, 1:30pm, 1:45pm & 2pm in the drop down, give me the option to set it to just 1pm, 2pm, 3pm, etc. This would significantly speed up making small schedule changes when working on a 100+ team schedule. 

Publishing a schedule for more than a month

Hi Dev, 

I would like to have an option where the management has the option to publish the schedule for more than a month time line/4-week. 

This will not only save time but also make the scheduling swifter.  I hope that this will be considered in the future release of the app. Looking forward to that. Thank you. 

 

publish

We should be able to publish more than 4 weeks out

Working days to be included in payroll / reports

It would be a great feature to have if in the future where you could add the column of worked days to the confirmed hours report it would be amazing.
Here, in Netherlands we are bound to show the days that an employee has worked along with the hours in a given timeline/period. 
Your reports are very detailed and a simple column added in the payroll/reports section to the respective reports will be awesome addition.

Clock In Restriction

There should be an option to customize the clock in restriction. We should be able to restrict one group of employees to clock in from specified locations only and allow second group of employees to clock in from anywhere. 

Shift titles to be permanent

The client wants to add titles to the shifts permanently and not that he has to go to each shift one by one and titles to them. 

Task assigned by Positions

Hello,

Please enable or create a feature where we can assign a task as per positions in a bulk as well as on a shift too.  This will certainly benefit other clients of Humanity as well.

Thank you and looking forward.

Management Alert

We would like to get an alert if it is an employees first shift at the location they are scheduled for
for example
let's say I have employee A who normally works at location A but tomorrow he is scheduled to work at location B
this is the very first time he will be working at location B and someone will have to meet him there to show him what to do at location B which is different from location A, the very first time he works at location B, he will have to be met and shown around afterward, he will no longer need to be met at location A or location B

Available Employees GPS Map Location

Our company would like to be able to see employees that are available for a callout and their locations on a map. The employee should be available to turn on and off their availability on their phone and it would show up at our main office on a google map etc.

Recurring Shifts Update Required

Hi team,

We have hundreds of employees and we use recurring shift feature oftenly but could you please add a couple of things in it?
1. Recurring should be editable( number of time should be repeated) 
2. Add a counter in the shift so we could know ho many shifts already been passed and the remaining ones. 

 This will certainly benefit other clients of Humanity as well. 

Thank you and looking forward
Sheila Ohstrom.

 

Managers option for managing Breaks Notifications

Amber Stevens (Manager) would like to have an option so that the scheduled breaks notification going out to the users could be managed by the Managers of the Humanity account. Currently, the employees will have to disable them through their own profile notification settings however, Breaks notification is not much needed as compared to the other ones so there should be an option for the Managers to disable them for employees.

If an option like that is introduced in the upcoming releases, that would be great. 

Thanks.

View Schedule by selecting multiple positions

Hi team,

Could you please enable the option, where we can select several positions at once to view in schedule overview?

This will certainly benefit other clients of Humanity as well. 

Thank you and looking forward
JOCELYN ESPEJO

Advanced tab>Filter out employee names with shifts

Robert Brookes (Manager) would like to have a an option added to the Advanced tab under shiftplanning module so that the names of employees could b filtered out who have been scheduled on shifts. The ones who are not scheduled will not show up but it will filter our the names of those employees whose shifts were added and published by the Manager so that the employees names with no shifts scheduled for the day will not appear and the Manager does not have to go through the list of employees to check who has been scheduled and who's not. Just like we can filter out empty shifts, open shifts etc, if an option like that is also added, that would be great.

Thanks. 

Copy Schedule and Mandatory Features

 There should be copy schedule feature available to copy schedule via mobile app.

SMS notifications for Trinidad and Tobago

There should be SMS notifications for Trinidad and Tobago to use functionality like "PING" to notify employees for immediate situations. 

Undo button for Double pasting a schedule

An undo button for copying and pasting a schedule onto the wrong time line.

Permission

Hi team,

Please do introduce a feature where we can customize any employee permission access to any feature. For example,

"A user permissions to adjust their time but not be allowed to see admin details like employee pay and everyone's schedules"

Thank you and looking forward
Jessica!

Weekly Availability Permission

Hi,

I would like to set reoccurring staff availability for staff members (without enabling these features for staff members to set for manager approval).


Thank you and looking forward

Birthday Report

I would like to request a report that shows me a list of Staff Birthdays for a time period.

Training History

When tracking an employee's performance, it would be very useful to track what date the employee completed a training topic.  For problem employees, our HR wants to know what date they were trained on the topic, and what date they were re-trained on it.  

When determining if an employee should be let go, this history would be a very helpful part of the documentation process.

Priority Departments

A lot of our employees work in multiple departments and we ask them which department is their priority.  It would be nice to somehow have their priority come through when scheduling.  For example, we have a coffee shop, country store, and farmyard.  My priority would be farmyard 1st, country store 2nd, and coffee shop 3rd.  We are currently creating custom fields and inputting this data, and then running a report which is very timely.  

Late for Work notifications for specific group.

Mark Musser (Manager) would like to get an option added where the late for work notifications does not apply to the Manager/supervisors and/Or he would be able to select to which group of staff members it applies so that the late for work notifications are received for only those specific employees and not for all the staff members.

If an option like that is added in the future releases that would be highly appreciated.

Thanks.

Leaves Break down information

This will be a great feature to have if we can somehow display the number of remaining leaves broken down into by dates requested. 

Example 
Joe requests 2 leaves in first 3 months and 4 leaves in the next three months, a manager should be given access to view how many leaves were requested in between a given time line -


**irrespective what ever is the number of the leaves remaining in the account displayed in the vacation summary report as we cannot view the number of leaves he requested in the second, third and the fourth month. 

Widget Width

We have lengthy location names.  So when someone is ON or LATE, the actual location is not visible immediately as the widget box is only half the column.  Could it be that one of the options is the widgets could be double width so that the location and shift are shown?  You might have a section at the top for wide ones and then half ones down further.

Print Out a copy of assigned breaks

There should be a way to print out a copy of assigned breaks for my team to refer to and a way to access all breaks in the schedule and view while printing.

Total Hours in Mobile App

Hi,

When staff views their schedules from the Mobile app, their total hours does not reflect their unpaid break time.  For example in Shift Planning their schedule reflects 40 hours but in the Mobile app it shows they are scheduled for 42.5 hours because their 30 minute unpaid break is not deducted.

Please update the Mobile app to mirror what is built out using the break rules.

Thank You.

Start day of the week as per each location

Hi Dev, 

I would like to have an option in settings of ShiftPlanning, where the management can set the start day of the week according to each location. 

We have clients weeks that start from Sunday to Saturday.... others from Friday to Thursday.... we have our week as our payroll cycle but this confuses our staff... I would like to know if by individual location we can manage the dates of the schedule...

I hope that I was able to make my self clear and this will be considered in the upcoming releases of the application. 

Looking forward to that. Thank you!

Drop Shift

Notifications for Drop Shift:

1. The manager should receive notifications for dropped shift even if a scheduler is assigned to manage certain permission.

Hence, generate a setting which allows both scheduler and managers to have notifications for shift drop.

2. There should be a notification widget related to shift drop.

Humanity Station

We would like to post two feature requests: 

1) Managers should be able to Clock In/Out employees in bulk via the Humanity Station App/Terminal
2) There should be a ListView for iPad Terminal. 

Please make recurring shift patterns/dates visible

I learned that one of our once/wk shifts dropped off the schedule because the recurring pattern had ended without any notification.

For planning purposes, it would be good to see date of origination, days the recurrent pattern applies to, and the end date of the series.

It would be a bonus if Humanity could program an alert for managers when a repeating pattern is nearing its end.

As it stands, I now have to go into every single shift to reset the patterns so that all end on the same date.

Customized time clock restriction

Hi Dev, 

I would like to have an option to customize or set the clock in/out restriction according to the needs like 1-minute rather than setting up into 5 mins increments. 

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

Open Shift

Our organization schedules mainly through open shifts. It would be ideal to maintain a functionality that would allow us to see who asked to work, so that if there is a cancellation, I know who was available for that shift. Perhaps instead of only Approve/Reject, there could be an option for "Available" as well, or at least keep the shift requests available for viewing after the shift has been filled.

Request to work - Hours Scheduled displayed

In the request to work screen, it should display how many hours that employee is already working so that you can determine fair distribution of hours/days and if the employee is overtime.

Shift created/published date.

It would be helpful to have date/time details of when and by whom a shift was published either in the shift History or right on the shift itself. This will protect those who schedule and those who are scheduled. (e.g. Shift published on 8/8/19 at 3:43 PM EST by George Doe) Then in the event log an Admin can easily view who when and what was changed.

Disciplinary Action

It would be very helpful if there was a way to temporarily block staff from being added to the schedule for a set period of time.  For example, if I were to write someone up and issue them a 2-Week suspension, I would like to do the same in Humanity.  That way the manager(s) who create/manage the schedule would not see that employees name as an option when they are creating the schedule for that week. Currently, we do this by disabling the user and/or changing their permissions level to Schedule Viewer, however, it is very tedious due to the number of employees that we have to do this for.  Additionally, once they are back from their suspension we have to remember to re-enable there account or update their permissions.  

Who's on now? Widget

This would be useful to managers, so that they could see staff at a location intuitively before placing a phone call

Separate Bill Rates & Pay Rates

Being able to separate bill rates and pay rates allows staffers to budget, as well as allow the employees to see their pay

Phone number field in Add Staff Option

The phone number field should also be added along with the email field in the add staff section of staff tab.

Location based break rules and Copy shift

Autumn Jones (Manager) would like to share feedback and make a feature request regarding the new Location-based break rules. When an employee A shift is copied to Employee B, there should be an option that could be selected so that the same break timings could be copied along with the same shift details for the other employee B. Currently, it is just showing the conflicts when the shift is copied for the other employee. However it is important to introduce an option to select from whether the breaks should be copied along with the shift details so the Manager can decide while copying shifts and proceed accordingly. 


Thanks.

Geo-fencing Auto clock-in/clock-out

It would be nice if employees were auto clocked-in or out like with Tsheet.  It would eliminate the "I forgot to clock-out" scenario.  

Employees Viewing Managers

For managers, employees should be able to view what manager is scheduled when whether they are hourly (clocking in and out) or salary. We have two salary managers and one hourly manager, all with varying schedules. We want our employees to be able to see which manager they would need to contact about being late, being sick, etc. As a salaried employee, I do not want have to clock in and out every day for my employees to know who they should be contacting. And as it is, I am contacted on my days off because employees don't know who they should be contacting when. It would be easier for them to be able to look at who they would be reporting to on their scheduled shift. And would save me the hassle of having to deal with clocking in and out for myself. 

Scheduled shift breaks

Hi Dev, 

I would like to notify a limitation that when an employee is on schedule breaks (within shifts) the management do not have any way to see it rather than clicking on a shift and this should be easier. 

Please add an option or way, where the schedulers do not have to click on each shift to check the scheduled breaks and the information should be appearing with a hover or on left column like conflicts, 

I hope, I have made my self clear and this will be added in the future releases of the application. 

Looking forward to that. Thank you. 

Auto Publish Future Shifts

Hi,

Could you please create a feature where we can select auto-publish shifts after a specific date and time?

It would be great if we could have a feature like that in the future. It's certainly a time saver and gives us the freedom to forget.

Thank you and looking forward
Kathleen Aquino
 

Shift Notes in Print View

We would like to be able to see the shift notes in print form for our workforce to be able to see them in print format as well for their individual shifts. 

Edit Custom Fields in Bulk

There should be an option to edit "Custom Fields" in bulk for employees. 

"live" log or note page for managers

There should be something like a "live" log or note page for managers to view and edit. Something where we can upload files and edit them within Humanity as well. 

Search Functionality

Hi team,

Is there a search function (or a way to add a search function) to the Training section of the platform?

Thank you and looking forward.

Add Videos

Hi team,

Hi, I'm trying to include a Vimeo video clip in a training module. But it is just giving me playback errors. I found that URL link works around. It works, but it's not as pretty as incorporating it directly like a youtube link. I would suggest please have some feature where we can directly add videos from a 3rd party resource.

Thank you!

Benjamin Fahey
 

Notification on Disabling Staff

We would like to be notified (via text/email) when a manager/supervisor disable/delete a staff member.

Monthly availaibility

We would like to have availability on a monthly level (not just weekly), so we can set up our availability on specific dates.

Total hours in view

It would be great if a total hours scheduled could be shown for filtered shifts.
We have three locations and several departments within them, so we're often using filters to schedule a set of positions.  A total of hours scheduled for each position is shown but it would be very helpful if we did not have to run a report or total them manually.  This is something we're doing several times each week and it seems like it might be an easier fix.
Thank you 

Color Coding Different Types of Leave

I would like the ability to color code leave based on what type of leave it is:

Paid Time Off (PTO) = Green
Holiday = Yellow
Sick = Brown
Military = Red

Also the ability to toggle leave for display with the rest of the shift would be nice too so you can see the whole picture
 

Ghost Shifts

Ability for all employees to see ghost shifts as it seems only scheduler permission level up can see ghost shifts and conflicts, so employees with limits scheduling permission can't see them

Note option on the Availability page

It would be helpful if we could add notes on the Availability page.

Feature to send all schedule via email

There should be a setting that allows the manager to send the complete schedule to employees via email.

Shift/Locations Tab

Hello,

We would like to request that the locations (when input into the "Locations/Positions" tab), automatically alphabetize the locations.  It would be easier/quicker to view them if they were in alphabetical order.

Color Differentiation

Hello,
We would like to request a color difference in OPEN/EMPTY SLOTS on the shift planning/schedule tab.  It would be very helpful to have those shifts signified by a different color so that just by glancing at the schedule we could see what needs to be filled. .

Previous Schedule

Please add a feature where users can see the actual schedule before the changes were made to the shifts instead of going into Event Log and Shift History to see the previous schedule for each shift. 

Add a buffer between arrival time and start time.

Please create a punch vs pay start time.  For instance, an employee may punch in at 7:30 (their punch time) 15 minutes before they are to start working, however, they will not begin to accrue pay until 7:45 (their pay time).  This would allow them to clock in early and have a cup of coffee, etc. but the employee will not begin to accrue time until she/he physically starts working at their start time.  It would also help prevent forgotten clock in punches.   Several of our staff arrive early and enjoy breakfast, etc. before starting their shift. In the example presented here, it would be 7:30 AM Punch 7:45 AM Pay.

Adding Videos

Hi development team,

It would be great to have a feature where a custom made or already saved videos in a computer can be uploaded under the training module.  This will certainly benefit other clients of Humanity as well.

Thank you!

clock in in and out notes

Hello there,

Could you have the option to opt to remove clock in and out notes. That would be helpful.
Thank you 

Remove Access To Self-Edit

To help with accountability, it'd be helpful to have settings that prevent users (of all permission levels, up to and including managers) from editing their own schedule, time sheets, leave, etc. This would allow larger organizations that want to restrict this behavior to force accountability by involving a second party with any edits. It would simultaneously allow smaller organizations that may only have one person in a leadership role to still have the flexibility to handle their needs (e.g. a manager needs to make a correction to their time sheet and there are no other supervisors or managers).

More details - shifts - 4weeks view - ScheduleBeta

We would like to see in 4 weeks view within Schedule Beta the same info for shifts we see for the 1 week's view. So, when you hover the shifts with the mouse to see these details instead of shifts being squeezed.

Customized / Saved notes in shifts

Hi Team, 

It would be a great feature to have in the humanity application as an ability to add and save custom notes that we can update/delete based on the scheduled shift. 
Business case::

We are an events company. Under the Locations & Positions tab we have "Positions" named "Bump in" or "Bump out" etc for when we go and set up events or pack down events. For these shifts, we have surveys that need to be completed at the end of each shift. A different one for each position is time-consuming and may be confusing at times. A saved note per positions/location will be a great improvement in the application.
 

Better report verbiage for Shift Exchange Report

http://prntscr.com/ompmy3

This causes confusion in understanding hence there should be better choices of words used to explain if an employee requested for a shift trade, requested to work on it and if that request was accepted, declided. 

Username

Hi team,

Could you please make the default user name something intelligible, change it from the random number to something more meaningful that a staff member could remember?

Thank you and looking forward

James ZZPeters

Notifications

It would be great if there was the option for managers to get notifications when employees pick up open shifts, release & pick up released shifts, when the "Employee requests to pick up an open shift are automatically approved" feature is on, and when the "Manager must confirm shift trades and releases before requests are sent to other employees" feature is off. 

Geographical Locations in Report

Please add a column in all Time sheet reports to see geographical location of employee clock in and out.

Accounting for PTO

Please provide a way that when a staff member takes a day of PTO that the system logs it as an 8 hour day. We cannot run accurate reports for overtime purposes when vacation days are not accounted for.

Delete/Remove shift templates.

Christina (Manager) would like to have an option to delete the shift templates that are no longer in use. 


Can we please have an option for this soon so it will help improve the shift creation process.


Thanks.

Manage Time Sheets

While making changes in the timesheets at the time of Approving the shifts the date automatically changes every time to the current date, not the one the shift was created for.

Payroll Export

Please add 'Xero' in your payroll providers export list. Xero is a highly recommended and used app for pays.

Adding a "Search Button" in Location & Positions

Hello, 

We would like there to be a "Search Button" added in Location & Positions which is under Staff. Go to Staff>Location & Positions and add a Search Button there. 

Thanks so much! 

Alphabetizing Locations in Shift Planning/Location

Hello,
We would like to have the option of alphabetizing the locations in the Shift Planning/Locations tab.  Currently the locations are just populating in random places - not by input date.

Leave type

There should be Custom dated Vacation type. F.ex. employee gets 24 days of vacation in the period from May 1st to May 1st next year.

Multiple Profiles With One Email Address

It would be great if accounts were scoped to a tenant, for example in my case, restauranta.humanity.com. Then if i create another account, let's say restaurantb.humanity.com and i have some employees that will also work there, I can sign them up and they can use the system with their normal email address, without anyone worrying about a conflict. In this case, because I own both restaurants, I can easily use the alias workaround. We have actually run into this problem before, where a part time employee we had could not sign in because they already were working somewhere else. In that case, it's not immediately obvious you'd need the +1 trick. if all restaurants were using humanity, instead of other schedule planning apps, it would quickly become a nightmare to maintain. in the current system, let's say someone has worked for 5 different places, all of which used humanity, by the time they got to me i guess somehow i would need to know to put +6 on their account. not sure how i'm supposed to know that. In a multi-tenant system where the account is tied to the account, that's not a problem.
 

 

 

Breaks Reports

There should be a report that includes the Clocked in and out hours along with the break details of when they were taken

Blocking a Shift Creation

Hi  Dev, 

I would like to have a feature where management has the option to block a day for scheduling an employee in particular conditions just as a day (s) can be blocked for requesting leave. 

If added, this will be a huge relief and avoid confusion since our scheduling needs are quite hectic and difficult. 

Please do consider adding this in the upcoming releases and I am sure that this will also be acknowledged by the other clients of yours. 

Looking forward to that. Thank you!

 

Clock-in Time rounding

Hi, i would like to suggest that there should be an option for clock-in to round up to Shift time start.
For example. Currently we allow people to clock-in upto 10 minutes before Shift start, and Clock in rounds up 5 minutes. For a shift that starts at 10am. someone arrives at work at 9:50 they can clock in but it starts their time clock at 9:50. or they clock in at 9:51, it rounds to 9:55, not unless they clock in 9:56 does it start them at 10.
Most staff like to be on site about 10 minutes before shift starts.  At that point they want to clock in to acknowledge they have arrived.  If they have to wait just until the right moment to clock in, then sometimes they go to their station at 9:59, and forget to clock in all together if we restrict the clock in timeframe too tightly.
But the goal is to have their timeclock start at shift time.
 

report on who hasn't taken a shift

I would like to see a report that shows me who has not taken a shift in 30 days, 60 days, etc.

customize email/sms notification wording

I need the ability to modify the wording of the sms or email that is sent to the employees.  For example, when an open shift is published, i want to sent out an email or SMS with my own wording and not the canned wording that Humanity uses.

Paging feature for long lists

The loading of pages which call for a large list of employees, locations or positions will become a performance issue if the Humanity tool displays all of that information on a single page.  For example, if I have 10,000 Remote Sites or 20,000 employees, it becomes a huge issue if your tool tries to render all 10,000 lines on the screen.  Adding a paging feature where it displays the first 100 (for example) is needed to lessen the data and performance.

Print & Save

Print option needs to include shift notes as well. 

Released/dropped shifts showing on Dashboard

When a staff member releases a shift, it should show up on the Shift Available list on the Dashboard as well. 

Also the option of drop shift should only be available with approval only. 

Restrict Scheduling as per payroll settings

There should be a feature that can be enabled to restrict scheduled based on daily OT hours and weekly OT hours. 

Example: Maximum weekly hours (Overtime) selected in payroll is 30 hours. 
If setting is enabled, employees can be scheduled beneath 30 hours and not touch the 30th hour. and also there should be an option to enter the OT values in decimals as well. 

Allow schedulers/admins to override limits

I have certain limits set for number of staff on leave at the same time.  Occasionally I want to override this limit for a special case (e.g. edit the schedule to reflect reality if someone calls out sick and mark the missed time as PTO).  However, even as an administrator or manager I am unable to enter PTO for someone if the limit has been met.  My only workaround is to increase the number of staff allowed to be on leave at the same time, which I don't want, as then too many people can request leave for the same days/times.

Hypothetical scenarios

It would be amazing if I could alter a duplicate of the published schedule so that I can look at scenarios after employee termination or other schedule changes that may not be publicized yet.  Currently if I move any shifts that are already published, the employees can see this even though I have not clicked "publish".

Improve custom reports

Hi!

In the custom reports options we can see the remote sites and notes for each employee but not the actual time they made a note or the time they were at certain remote site. It would be really helpful if you guys can make it happen.

Need undo edits and more restore points on schedul

Hello, I ran into an issue which I am very sure many people run into since its a commonly occurring problem.  I started to work on a schedule and then cleared it but am unable to restore it to the original schedule before I started making any changes.  After speaking to your chat people there is no way to do this because the restore option only restores to the first change not the original.  So clearing the schedule erased all the information including the available shifts that I was trying to fill.  The shift/planning mod is in desperate need of an undo button and the option to restore to the starting point of any changes being made to a schedule.  I have worked on many scheduling apps and they all have this basic function.  Is it possible for your team to install this or add it into the system?  It would be a lot of help when trying to stream line schedules.

Allow Schedulers to manage Training Tab

Hi Dev, 

I would like to have a feature added which should allow the staff members of "Scheduler" permission level to manage the Training Tab (add and edit). 

If added, this will be a huge relief for the management as they do not have to take care of the training topics as the schedulers will be managing them for their respective positions. 

I hope, this will be added soon and other clients will like and acknowledge this addition if considered in the future releases. 

Looking forward to that. Thank you. 

Reset leave count based on staff hire date

The should be a setting to restore the remaining leave count based on the employee hire date.

Add employee ID & Hire date

Please add the employee ID as an option to the leave page.  We use it to distinguish types of employee and what leave is available.  

Would also love to add the ability to choose "HIRE DATE" as an option in the leave page view/reporting.

Filters in reports

The client says that the reports filters should be upgraded. There are no checkboxes in the positions or locations filters in the reports so preferred locations and positions can be selected. 

Daily Peak Report - improvements

We would appreciate it if we could have the option to combine skills with positions in this report. 

Also, it would be great if we could get the intersection of two selected skills, not the sum, as a result. 

Daily Peak Report - loading time

It takes a lot of time to pull the report as each field requires a lot of time to load for itself, and it goes field by field. It would be great if you could pause the report, select everything needed and then run it.

Also, it would be perfect if you could improve the speed of it as currently, we wait for a couple of minutes, and usually don't get data as everything is soon frozen.   

Tasks in Overview for the employees

Hi Dev, 

I would really appreciate if an option is added where employees can see the assigned tasks on their shift when looking in the shift details as does not make sense that the tasks are appearing on the day of the shift (on the dashboard) or has to change the view to list view in order to see them. 

This is a big hurdle and can influence our decision whether we want to keep using this application or not since it is very important for my employees to know their assigned tasks, well in advance by simply clicking on the shift. 

Please do consider adding this in the future releases of the application and I am sure that this will be acknowledged from the other clients of yours as well. Thank you. 

Training completion

The employees should not be able to complete the training while they are not clocked in and furthermore, they shoud not be able to mark I've Finished if the whole video is not played

future Weekly Availability

Hi Dev, 

I would like to have an option where the employees have the option to set the time limit or effectiveness date that when they want to have their weekly availability to be implemented for the future dates. 

Currently, the only option is to set the future availability which is not very feasible as a single date needs to be set. 

Please do consider adding this feature in the upcoming releases of the application, if possible. Looking forward to that.  Thank you. 

Customize leave view for users

Customize the leave view so users can clearly see the number of remaining leave days. 

Shift indicating which User posted it

Would be great to see who posts or places a shift on an employees schedule whether its published or not, maybe only the managers can see this or whoever does the scheduling. 

For example: we had one employee with a training shift and it was difficult to see if it was there for a reason. If we could see the user that put it there then we could ask that user the reason behind it.

Staff Availability in Schedule Overview

We would like to have Staff Availability within Schedule Overview, not to look at them separately.

Sync Leave Schedule for multiple staff

That would be great if we could sync Leave Schedule for selected staff or select positions. Not only for ALL.

Associating multiple skills with a position

We would like to have the option to associate more skills to one position.
When you go to Locations and Positions and click on Associate Skill we would like to have the option to associate multiple skills, not just one. 

A copy shift option available in all views

We would like to have a copy shift option (when you select the shift, drag and drop it - to copy/move it) available in other views as well (not just 1-week view).

A copy shift option available in all views

We would like to have a copy shift option (when you select the shift, drag and drop it - to copy/move it) available in other views as well (not just 1-week view).

Split shifts within the trade/drop function

Please let our coworkers split there shift while traiding/dropping. 

For example:

I have a shift 08:00 - 12:00 and i would like to drop it to 2 coworkers. Person 1 takes 08:00 - 10:00 and person 2 takes 10:00 - 12:00. 

Thanks

Holiday calendars - sync, display multiple

Ability to upload holidays via Google Calendar, very cool!  Two extensions we'd love to see:
- Sync with calendar so changes are pushed automatically
- Display multiple holiday notes together (e.g. we track multiple calendars across many school sites and need to see which three are on spring break that day)

Leave Requests

Currently, when Leave Requests is selected, you are only able to see leave requests for all employees at once. It would be helpful to make this searchable for specific employees, similarly to when Schedule Overview is selected. 

Multi Select Remote Site Filter

Hi Team, 

Please add an option to multi-select Remote Site under Payroll Reports. We do our payroll and approval of timesheet based on remote site and I have to change filter 100 times to run the reports. It takes a lot of time for me to do the Payroll due to a single selection. 

Confirmed Time Sheets Custom Report

Trying to get an hours export that includes break times, for CA regulatory compliance issues. 

We would like the break-in and out button in the selectable fields on the Confirmed Time Sheets Reports under Custom Reports. 

Lock feature on shift planning

Would be great to be able to lock a shift or day off. If you planned a certain employee that needs specific days you think they should work while in shift planning mode. It would be easier if you can pre plan and lock it down. Say you want a specific person to work Monday, Wed, and Fri for a reason you can lock it so you dont go and change it later after changing many other shifts around. 

Part time/Full time Regular fields

Hi Dev, 

It would be nice if you add "Part-time/Full time" categories in the "Select Regular Fields" (within Custom View) as it will save us time to add it as a custom field. 

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

Time Format

Please introduce 24 shift time format in mobile app as well. It's available in the web version but not on mobile app. As an emergency service we are used to the 24 hr clock.

Add time Clock

Hi team. 
 

The world would be a better place if we all used the 24 hour clock when adding time clock. Selecting Am and Pm takes a lot of time, it will be very helpful if you could please add this option in your upcoming releases. 

Thank you 

Absence Tracking

It would be great if on the shift planning view, have an option to select "excused' or "unexcused" absence to track absences for drivers. And have excused or unexcused populate in the timesheet attendance report so we can track absences.
