Manage time sheets

Please put the time of the break instead of just how long the break was.  This was you wouldn't have to go into the edit time sheet mode to see the time the break was taken.

Wall Post

Hi Team, 

Please add a feature where we can upload JPG images on the wall post. 
Thanks

confirmed timesheets

I use confirmed timesheet to see exactly how many hours are actually worked for each position.  As I sit here trying to get this information for the owner of the facility, I am becoming increasingly annoyed with the new filters you put on these.  Please remove them as it causes me to either do 3 extra steps or do a manual calculation per day/position.  PLEASE put it back.

Positions

Please give more choices in shades of the same color.  Example I have six position for some of my locations and only 4 shades of purple.

Looping in Supervisors

Looping in Supervisors to Leave requests as an FYI when we (schedulers) approve/deny a request 

Permission Leve

To be able to provide Supervisors with Supervisor permissions without the Editing Feature. We would like our Supervisors to be able to view the schedules of our employees, be able to use the scheduling tool by requesting time off, but not tobe able to edit employees schedule.

confirmed timesheets

I use confirmed time sheets to verify exact hours worked for various positions.  I do NOT like the new filters you put in as it makes 3 extra steps in trying to obtain this information quickly to input into a spreadsheet.
Please reverse this change asap.  It is not needed and is cumbersome.  Please let me go back to the way it was. 

Block Vacations by Facility

Ability to block out vacation requests by specific facilities. We have events at some facilities where it would be great to block requests, but there is no need to block out at our other facilities. Being able to specify which facilities would be very helpful.

Ability to swap shifts based on skill

When employees are swapping shifts, system should take into account skills so that only workers with a certain skill can swap with other workers with that same skill

Location filter to approve all Timesheets of.

There should be a way to filter to all timesheets within one business location.

It would be unnecessarily time consuming and error prone to have to change the view for every position.
 Ideally you’d be able to filter per department group, which I don’t think you can (ie the colours we set), but can she at least put the whole of her one site team regardless of position?

Visibility of the Remote site notes

Yes please! It would be nice if we could click on a remote site and see information about that site ... like phone #, email address, contact person's name, special notes. many thanks, have a great night.

Shift Trade/Release for unavailable Employees

Hi,

We're having issues with the current Shift Trade/release flow since the employees are not able to release the shifts if the other employees are not available. We come across a lot of instances where the employee would normally be unavailable but would be able to pick up a released shift. 

It would be a great help if the employees can send out a release request to the employees who are not available since the current functionality is not working for us and we have to make the changes manually. 

Please let me know if this can be implemented. Thanks!

Changing Base Rates or Rate Cards for Positions

It would be incredibly helpful if we could change the base rate or rate card for a position, and have that change applied to all employees with that position. Recently, the base rate for one of my positions (sales associate) changed from $12 to $13. The only way to change this was to go into over 100 profiles and change the base rate for that position. I also changed the rate card, and had to go into every employee's profile to change it. Please add a way to just set a base rate and rate card for a position and apply it to everyone!

viewing Confirmed timesheets

I use confirmed timesheets to view actual hours worked by the staff.  You changed it so that I now have 3 extra steps before I can view confirmed hours for a specific position.  Plus, the way you changed it is SO difficult it adds frustration as you can't just pick a position and view it.  
Whomever decided this should be removed.  This is HORRIBLE and I want out of this change ASAP.
When I am signed on, AS ADMINISTRATION, I should not have to choose my own company first, then scroll to a position then Apply???  What is this??  Then it doesn't even clear the first position when you try to go to another.
Get new developers.
I want this changed back.  
Note: if these are the types of changes you are making then we want out !

Blocking off days for leaves

I really like the new feature where you can block of specific dates so that employees will not be able to request those days off. However, I would like to see the ability to specifically select which employees or positions will be blocked from requesting those dates off. I have seasonal staff and do not want them to book off the spring months as these are our busiest times of the year, but still would like to allow full time staff to book these days off for vacation.

Position Filter

Hi team, 

Please bring back the Position Drop Down filter where I only have to select the Position name, now I need to click on the Location and then the position to select the position. This is an extra step which we don't need. 

Audit Report for Time Clock Edits

An audit report is so needed for the Time Clock Edits. The current system is super manual (by each time clock stamp) and for organizations with multi-units (like mine) where I need to audit what changes my managers make and verify them, this is a really necessary addition. 

I've used this in the past with other time keeping systems and typically you can run reports for time periods, locations and then see all changes made to times. This can help organizations with time theft, inappropriate edits, etc. and ensuring there are checks and balances. 

Without this report, the current system is highly limiting in terms of making information that is out there available to the user. Please add this ASAP to make me love your product more. 

Vacation Catagory

There was previously a feature that had staff marked as on vacation instead of simply listing it under conflicts.

It takes us much longer to see the conflicts then it does with a vacation list. Can you please reinstate it asap?

The most regularly used template should be on top

With the shift templates, if the most regularly used template (e.g. 9am-5pm) is at the top of the template list.

Shift copy in two week view (New Shift Creation)

The ability to copy a shift while being in the two week view (New Shift Creation).

Setting the Expiration Date for a Skill

Hi,

The calendar to set up the skill expiration date is not very user-friendly. We have to scroll through the months by clicking, and it's quite difficult when you want to set an expiration date which is two years from now. 

Screenshot: http://prntscr.com/jia96j

It would be a great help and save a lot of time if you could add the functionality of a Drop Down menu on the calendar to change the year/month.

Please let me know if this can be implemented. Thanks!

Be able to upload pictures to the messaging.

A picture is worth a thousand words.  Being able to post a photo of what I'm talking about for many of my message's to employees is key.

Force notifications

Hello!

I would be nice to be able to customize forced notifications. For example, as a Manager, I would like to make sure that all my employees receive specifically the shift trades notifications. However, I currently depend on them to manually activate this notification in their individual profiles - which a lot of them don't do!

Thanks!

Enhancements to Scheduled Shift Report

Suggestion 1:
It would be nice to have the LOCATION included in the REPORT HEADER instead of each employees daily listing. It is cluttered and redundant when only printing one locations schedule at a time. Adding select/de-select "LOCATION" in pull down menu where "Deduct Breaks" is currently located could be a place for this new option. 

Suggestion 2:
It would be nice to have the ALPHA DAY OF WEEK included WITH DATE on Scheduled Shift Report. I hand write this info under date each week and wonder why it is not an option.  There could be  "M, U, W, H, F, SA, SU"  or  "MO, TU, WE, TH, FR, SA, SU" 

Thank you for considering these enhancements.
 

List People as Sick Instead of just removing them

This is beyond crazy that as a scheduling software you cannot just list people as "sick", you rather have to just remove them from the schedule. This throws off my staff audits!

Get on this Humanity! 

Varied types of training questions

Currently the training quiz option is only multiple choice, it would be nice to have short & long answer options, & selecting multiple options.

Automate Crib-sheet export

We would like to automate the crib-sheets report export.  A daily export to a csv files would be ideal.  We will then in turn, on our side be able to load it into our own system.

Phone# under the employees name in ShiftPlanning

if we could see people's phone numbers under their names in the schedule view

Project Management

Hi There

I would like to add a feature; Project management. Where a 'task'can be allocation hours and time period(date range) and assigned to a person. As projects often take 20hours to complete and may be done over several days; an ability to update the progress of the task or (project) would be ideal.
I imagine you could utilize the current Task feature and just elaborate on it. 

At my work we are doing a lot of small projects across many teams and would be great to capture hours against a task, without scheduling that person to 2 hours a day when their day may change depending on circumstances. Also scheduling 2 hours a day won't tell me when the project is complete. 

Kind Regards 
Rebecca 

Clock in & Clock out option for limited staff.

She requested a feature. She wants the ability to control who can clock in from the mobile app. She has a few employees that work remotely and wishes to allow them to clock in from their phones and others to restrict to their terminals.

Shift Acknowledgement Text Reminder for Management

Manager, supervisors and, schedulers should receive a text reminder/notification when employees accept a shift while acknowledging the shifts they're scheduled on. This will be very helpful and will alert the management to arrange a replacement for unacknowledged shifts (the ones employees are not attending). 

Mandatory Fields while Activating the Account

Hi,

When the employees try to activate their account using the activation link, they're able to activate their accounts with minimum information.

It is very unhelpful when we have to spend time chasing people for numbers etc because they have been able to register with only half the information we need from them.

There should be some Mandatory Fields while activating the account like the cell phone number, driving license etc. This would ensure that we don't have to chase the employees for that information, and everything would be already up to date.

Please let me know if this can be implemented. Thanks!

messaging system

The messaging system is great in that it allows us to send a group message, however, the problem is that when someone replies their reply goes to the whole group and not the individual who sent out the message which then means people's phones and emails blow up with way too many messages. It would be nice if you can attach a reply to all feature similar to an email response so that people can control who sees their replies.

thank you

Permissions - Schedule Viewer

Can you please change the Permissions for the Schedule Viewer so that they are able to view unpublished schedules?

Have scheduled breaks/lunches appear on Humanity

I really like the new schedules lunches/breaks feature but as of right now an employee can only see it via email.
I think it would be awesome if they could see it on dashboard for their current shift this way they know exactly when they can clock in/out without having to reference their personal email at work

Suggestion: a Vacation Calendar, see att'd

1. Should be in Excel format because then it's formattable (color, detail)

2. One page per month would be find or have the option to select 3 months at a time (because this would cover the summer vacation period

3. Please see attached example, thank you. 
Shoot, I can't attach my Excel example. Anyways, it's in Calendar format. Let's say the month of July. You can see who will be away on each day. So around a long weekend, you may see several individuals missing the day before and the day after the vacation day. This lets you easily plan to add staff in advance. 
 

A "Like" button

On the message board, a like button would be nice and simple for staff to confirm they have read and understood the message. 

Easy photo import

It would be awesome if we could easily post a picture on the message board (facebook style) in order to communicate ideas visually with the staff. 

Availability

We'd like staff to be able to set future availability for their weekly availability so that we can anticipate long term schedule changes without creating conflicts on the current schedule.

Availability Changes

The Availability Changes function should allow you to organize by employee, then date.  It would also be helpful to see, without clicking on each request, which date the change is being made for.  For example, each request could look something like this: Jane Smith, Unavailable 9a-3p June 2, Submitted May 9, Decline or Accept.

Every month I go through the availability changes and have to pick out one employee at a time and click on their request and then scroll up to the top of the page to see what date it was for and whether I want to accept or decline. Then I have to go back down and try to find their name again and repeat 200 times.

Reports: Scheduled Hours Vs Confirmed Time Sheets

Hi,

There should be a dedicated report for Scheduled Hours Vs Confirmed Time Sheets. Currently, we have to export both reports separately, and then combine them manually after exporting them, which is a lot of work. 
The manage Time Sheets section does have this capability, but there is no way to download that report. It would be a great help if there is a dedicated report for this purpose, or if the report in Manage Time Sheets section is made available for download/export. 
Any improvement in this regard would be highly appreciated. Thanks!

Accrued hours

It would be helpful to have an accrual rate built in based on our employees hours worked and  tenure to accrue PTO time.  My staff earns PTO based on hours worked and how long they have been here.  We could easily set up the accrual formula and have the timeclock function show their accrued hours they have available.

 

Staff- Edit Details

Please introduce a setting option where a staff can be given a permission to edit their details but they cannot hide their contact information 'under the edit details page'.
Example: https://prnt.sc/jfmkes
Right now, the staff can edit their details and at the same time they can select whether or not they wanna show their contact details to others, this is causing inconvenience for other staff to contact the other employee of the same position. Kindly look into that. Thanks! 

Ability to print monthly "calendar" style report

I need to be able to print a monthly report per employee (physician) that looks more like a calendar.  Currently, I would have to print each week separately to get what I need.  If I select a full month as the time frame, the report  that prints comes out in one very long row and only the first page prints. 

Ability to add or amend notes on shift releases

We would love to have the ability to add notes to a shift that is being released as a supervisor in case there is info the employee didn't include when they submitted the request.  That way the staff that looking to pick up the shift all the correct info

Statutory Pay rates

we would need the below functionality coded in shift planning for Statutory Pay. This is a very manual process we have and is not sustainable as we open up new companies in 2018. We currently have 2 companies on Shift Planning and plan to add 2 or 3 more companies in shift Planning in 2018.
It seems it should not be that complicated to code the logic in shift planning reporting. Hope this could be achieved soon.
 
Earning Code : 04 -  Statutory Holiday
For all the employees we have to pay them Statutory Holiday Pay
Employees Hours worked in pay period ( 2 week Pay Period) prior to the statutory holiday pay period divided by number of days worked.  E.g.  If in the previous pay period, employee X worked  38 hours and he worked 5 days, his statutory Pay hours would be 38 hours / 5 days =  7.6 hours.  Employee X Standard Pay rate is $14.  So employee X Statutory Holiday Pay is 7.6 hours * $14  = $106.4
For 2018 Statutory Holiday for Ontario, Canada is

New Year's Day	January 1, Monday
Family Day	February 19, Monday
Good Friday	March 30, Friday
Victoria Day	May 21, Monday
Canada Day	July 1, Sunday
Labour Day	September 3, Monday
Thanksgiving	October 8, Monday
Christmas Day	December 25, Tuesday
Boxing Day	December 26, Wednesday

Combined report for schduled and clocked hours

I need a report that is basically time clock summary vs schedule summary. 

Vacation/PTO reset date

Hello.  Is there a development coming down your pipeline that will allow vacation time to reset based on a employees anniversary, as opposed to automatically resetting at the beginning of the year?

Hourly Schedule overview

Hi there!
As I have several tasks my agents need to be carrying out and which change on an hourly basis, I would like to request an improvement to the schedule overview.
I would need to be able to have an hourly overview of the day and assign e.g. chat time, inbound time, outbound time, training, extra tasks, meetings, etc. for the agents.
They should be able to view their daily schedule easily and also have an overview of their colleague's daily schedule. 

"Appears on schedule" option

Each staff member / employee should have a check box for "appears on schedule".  For example, our managers are NEVER scheduled via shiftplanning, but they must view / modify the schedule on a daily basis.  We should be able to hide them by default if desired.

Shift Planning and Leave Type

Hello!

When entering leave I know there is an option to exclude weekends from the leave but that is only reflected on the Vacation Report Summary. Is it possible to have that also reflected on the Shift Planning view? Our employees all have a M-F schedule so it would be nice to show their leave (if more than 5 days M-F) as Approved "M-F" then just leave their schedule blank for Saturday and Sunday.

Thank you!

Eileen

Easy tracking of staff clocking out early

Enable Management to view when staff clock out of shifts early. This feature will allow accurate reports for Lost Billable's to be created, and is extremely important to our business. 

We would like this perhaps added into the Rule Break function - so it will allow the ability to view early sign outs in a way similar to how our shifts under 4 hrs appear. They will not be approved until a member of Management manually does so. 

Reject a shift - comment not required

When employees reject a shift, please make the comment section not required.  Or the ability to make the comment area not required.

Shift Title visible in shift release employee list

On the employee profile, when they view the list of shifts that others are trying to get covered on the shift release list.  They can not see the shift title.  Can you please make this visible?

Who's Working Visibility for All

It would be great to have a setting I could turn on so that all my employees can see "Who's Working" across all positions, not just their own. Our company thrives on the transparency of being able to quickly identify who is working. We can see who is on a particular project if we scroll through ShiftPlanning, but when you select the shift, unless you're already assigned to that position or are a scheduler, you can't view the employees on that shift. This would be SUCH a great feature!!

Thank you!

Multi Select on Group Reports

I would like to be able to select specific multiple employees at the same time to create a report.
 

Additional Scheduling Wizard Features

Scheduling Wizard Update:

We would like to add a couple scheduling wizard rules within each employee "Edit Details" tab.

The rules we would like to be able to set for each employee would be:

      -The minimum/ maximum amount of hours each employee can be scheduled per week.

      -The ability to prioritize full-time employees over part-time employees within the same position assignment. (IF full-time - Schedule minimum hours first. IF part-time - Schedule minimum hours after full-time)

We would like to take into consideration that the schedule may change every week along with the number of employees needed for each shift. We must also acknowledge that we may bring on new employees every week and need to update.

The process then would be creating shifts manually. We would then use scheduling wizard to fill shifts based on these rules.

We really need the scheduling wizard to be agile enough to follow these sets of rules and possibly others that may arise. The scheduling wizard must also be able to obey future and weekly availability, although, I'm pretty sure it already does.

This would be a HUGE benefit to all of our partners.

Thanks!

Notifications

I would like to be able to pick and choose who is notified when a Shift Change is made. Currently, anyone scheduled that day is receiving a notification if a slight change is made, even if it does not directly effect them. This confuses my team, as they think an important change has been made and they can't find it. I'm afraid to not send the notification e-mail, as I don't want anyone to miss a change that is intended for them.
Scenario: I added Bob to a shift on May 15th. Sue received an e-mail that said a change has been made to her shift on May 15th. Sue does not see any change to her call time/position/etc. Sue is confused. I'd prefer to only let Bob know that he has been added to a shift.

Shift Trades

Staff who want to Trade shift make a request which one can see in the 'Manage Shift Trades' box. As a manager, you cannot do anything with this...
After a chat I have discovered that the Shift Trades are in the Shifts Requests Waiting box. This is illogical and, frankly, ridiculous as there is no way to find the shift  trade requests.

Previously, we managed shift trades in the relevant box and could easily approve / reject. I would suggest that you move the Shift Trades back to the top box.
Thanks in advance!

Availability Settings for the Managers

When the following settings are disabled, the managers are not able to edit the availability. 

• Staff can set weekly availability
• Staff can set future availability

The managers should be able to edit the availability even though the above-mentioned settings are disabled since this is quite annoying to change the settings everytime the manager needs to update the availability of an employee. 
Any update in this regard would be highly appreciated. Thanks!

Scheduling Employees Off

Schedule should be able to input that an employee is 'off' without having to put in hours that might affect their total hours, or as a leave. Some schedules are too inconsistent to use the availability feature. A place to put a non-schedule notation on the actual schedule for an employee instead of a blank box would be ideal.

Notifications

Managers should have the ability to require email notifications for certain items: i.e. new training.

On-Call shifts only

Enable shifts to be purely on-call shifts only, i.e. on-call is the actual function of the shift.  Currently they can changed to be on-call but it leaves the shifts unassigned, as the current setting is only for covering for the person assigned to the shift.

Please input the 7 minute role

In California we have the 7 minute clockin and clockout rule that a company can go by.
Please set in place so that I can have the clockin and clockout round up or down by the 7 minute rule.

 

New shift notifications only for available employe

In order to reduce irrelevant emails, it would be great if only employees who are available will be notified when a new shift is posted. If an employee is already scheduled on a shift or is not available or on leave then they should not receive an email.

Edited Punches

It would would be beneficial to have a report that shows just punches that were edited by someone.  For example is someone forgot to clock out and a user clocked them out, a report to show that which includes the employee who had the punch edited, who edited the punch, when they edited the punch and a place for the employee to sign to confirm they are ok with the edit.

Chat icon

It would be great to minimize the icon or completely turn off the chat feature until needed. It gets in the way sometimes.

Improvement in Time Sheets Late Summary Report.

We use Time Sheet Late Summary Report on daily basis. However, an additional thing that we need in that report is a new column "Excuse" with a checkbox option in that column to check that excuse right next to an employee name in case we want to excuse that employee for being Late or Absent. 

Track Vacation by Anniversary Date

We are unable to track vacation time left using ShiftPlanning because our vacation renews at the employees anniversary date.  It would also be helpful if we could include a schedule as to when the employee's vacation increases every 5 years.

Thank you!
-Lynn

Requests Off

It would be nice if all requests off that were placed either from the Availability Change for a day or a Leave that it showed up in the Leave Overview.  

Staff Availability

Having to go to every employee under Shift Availability is very time consuming.  When I have a last minute call out, I don't have time to go thru 150+ employees.  Can there be a better way to see the availability listed daily in a more compact manner?
 

Payroll cost vs Budget

Need a Payroll Report for Actual Payroll Cost vs Budgeted Payroll Cost month-to-month and year-to-year, to show us if we're in the 20-25% range, or if we're 30% or more of our Gross Revenue.  

This is a very important report for any business owner, in trying to keep payroll costs and hours worked under control. I'm currently exporting info into Excel and creating a report, but if it could come from our Payroll in Humanity, that would really help and be a time-saver.  

Tab rearrangement

It would be nice if Administrators were able to move the tabs at the top to the order in which they are used the most.  For example, I use the tabs in this order:   Shiftplanning, TimeClock, Payroll, Staff, Leave, Training, Reports.  Currently, I have to search across the whole top bar to find the ones I use the most.  Being able to rearrange the tabs to the order each admin uses them would be a real timesaver.  

Janice

Setting the number of shifts per week/month

I use the schedule wizard to auto populate the shifts.. but i would like to set certain parameters for the employees such as x amount of shifts per week or month etc,would be great to automate this. 

For example if Employee A can have 5 shifts per month and Employee B can have 8 shifts per month, so when i use Scheduling Wizard, it also calculates this in account so that no matter the availability issue, the shifts per month are adhered too. 

 

Hope you can help consider this feature request. 

 

Best Regards

Auto deduct breaks

When an employee views their time in the humanity app and in our reports it would be nice if the Breaks where deducted automatically.  

I have had quite a few of my employees question their paycheck because they are seeing the total hours here and they thing that should be the hours paid.  However, the time is does not remove the breaks. 

Date ranges by pay period

I would like to be able to set up pay periods in the system so when running reports I can easily select a payroll time frame and not have to search for or remember which dates were in a particular pay period.  

Hours/Labor Dollars Module Real Time

It would be nice to have a report/module that displayed current clocked in labor hours/dollars so we can monitor real time our labor percentage. Something that show number of clocked in staff members (could sort by department)/how many hours have been utilized thus far through the day/how many dollars that has accrued. 

Right now all reports are based off of confirmed time sheets.

multiple availability schedules per employee

Our workforce consists of college students that are hourly employees. Their weekly availability changes at least 3 to 4 times a year.

it would be very practical to be able to create another weekly availability schedule for existing employees as of a specific date in the future.  This would allow us to create another schedule template as of the future date which assists us in anticipating the number of employees needed then.

While the "set future availability" is useful, it is not practical for this purpose. 

Regards

On-boarding Tracking System

Would be great to have different stages of on-boarding that you can apply different training modules too, this will allow for managers/admin to simply move new hires stage to stage as they complete modules and that automatically assigns them the next set of modules. 

Applicant Tracking System

Would be great to have an applicant tracking system built into Humanity to better track new and potential hires. 

Casual staff inputting available days.

Instead of having casual staff "book" off all of the month aside from a few days, simply allow them to "be available" for the few days. Ideally have this also easy to report on so you can pull a list of dates that casual employees can fill. 

Skills/employees

I'd like to be able to pull reports that are geared towards employees or skills not always shifts. In other words I have several different designated staff for positions and skills. I need to be able to pull a report that is not geared towards shifts but a report of all staff and their designated skills.

Limit access to shifts for selected staff

Staff have access to all published shifts for the programs they have access to and with the advanced feature we can decide if they have access to all in the future or limited dates. I would like to be able to select restricted staff to a limit of shifts they can see. In other words I'd like to have certain staff only see shifts no more than 2 weeks out. 

Employee and scheduled shifts

Right now, when employee goes to clock in/out, they manually have to enter all the shift information. It would be very very helpful if the scheduled shift could be clocked. For example, Jane is schedule with Ms. Brown for Thurs 4/26 from 8a-12p.  After the shift is completed, Jane should be able to log onto Humanity and go to Time Clock. That shift should appear for Jane to enter her actual time worked. This would mean that for the Employer process time sheets for payroll and client billing would be streamlined - if an Employee forgot to clock a shift, when she next goes onto Humanity it would appear for her.

Allocation of Employees on the map

It would be great if we can see all the staff on the map to determine how far away they are from the site we need to assign somebody to. Right now when it is not 200 employees, it is fine to determine how far each of them live from the site manually using google maps. But later on, it will be a very time-consuming process. If you can consider this, it would be perfect.

Thank you.

Icons on shifts

It would be very helpful id there was an icon that would appear when there was a note attached to a shift.  This way an employee on another manager would not have to click on every single shift in order to see if any notes were left for them.  It would also remind me of where I left a note.

notification accepted and it is removed from list

I would like to be able to see a conflict " employee is schedule for more then 8 hours" and accept it and it would then be removed from the conflicts on the top right of my screen.

I would also like to be able to not have a cap on how many hours a staff can work b/c some of my staff work 12 hours days and with it being capped at 8 that creates a lot of conflicts.

I would also like to have a spot to have the times my clients come for services almost like an availability for them but it would be called " client schedule" and a way to put on there days that they don't come for services that way a hole does not get over looked.

Break Rule maximum hours to be increased to 24

1. I’m trying out the workaround with the Second on Call shifts but this has created a whole new slew of issues… (all Second on Call positions have been created exactly the same way).

1. On creating the rule, I cannot change the Maximum hours to 24, this won’t allow me to do so and as per my chat with Billy L this is pre-set and cannot be changed
2. The function is not working for all my positions and I need to know why so I can test it to see if it works
3. This, however, only works when using the Payroll report.
4. This should show when checking Hours Shifted.
5. I’m trying to get my users to access and manage their hours but with AIEM Training and Second on Call hours this is not possible so they get a skewered total for their hours.
6. Because we have so many positions (as the scheduling stands in my main account) to try and use the filters will be an absolute nightmare so we do need to come up with another solution please?

Feature request for calendar month name to be disp

The current calendar display does not show the month name from which the user is selecting a date. The default is set to the current month. The ask is to have the month name displayed in the calendar view on the shift planning tab. User should be a able to navigate using back and next buttons which would enable them to go back in time or to a future date. 

Feature request for shift name report illustrating

We need a report for the shift name followed by the count of the days for the selected employees. Currently there is no report which illustrates that Engineer ABC did 6 APAC shifts, 5 EMEA shifts and had 8 PTOs and 2 Sick leaves in a month. If a manager wants this data the report will have to be exported for the shift name and the count will have to be calculated manually which is not a very feasible solution.

Add Namely & Blue Marble as payroll providers

We have two different accounts. The first one is for the USA and the second one is for Canada. We would like to use two different payroll providers for both. For Ecoservice USA, we would like to use Namely and Blue Marble for Ecoservice Canada. I'm attaching the files below that shows what sort of information we need to export and what should be the payroll report export format. You can also contact me in case, you have any question or need further clarification.

We have 40 locations and 2 persons on call for all 40 locations... We need a fast way to assign them in all the locations for a specific time and position.

With the current system we have to go 1 by 1 and is very time consuming!!
 

Hours per position

To be able to set the hour schedule per position, so thus we can be able to check the completness of the shift/position.

Lets say we have a position' cashier' with 24 hours work. with 3 shifts x8 hours.

For some reason we missed the 8 hours and the system will help us to identify that we missed those 8 hours!

Viewing Original Schedule When Making Changes

I would like to be able to compare the original, published schedule that employees see, versus the changes I have made to the schedule before re-publishing the new schedule.

Messaging and Post Wall Messages

It should be possible to unable schedulers to reply e-mails and Wall messages  posts.

Most importante for us.

Employee Notes on Mobile Manager App

Hello

I need to be able to see the notes in the manager mobile app.  Currently, I have to log in to a desktop version see the notes left on an employee.  This is very frustrating

Clocked in Report

Need to be able to pull a morning report of who is clocked in. Export to Excel

Create schedule for specific dates only

Hi team,

Is there any way to view the schedule by specific dates? namely 1st -15th of a month to correspond with pay period?

We're trying to get our employees the schedule they need as it matches their pay period, and so that we can see a month out

Schedule vs Clock-in Time Report

Would be nice just to double check the times that were clocked in versus what staff was scheduled.  Having it all in one report.

ECI, payroll provider

Requesting an ECI payroll export; right now, we have to manually download as a spreadsheet, reformat, save as pdf (in two separate formats--all hours by employee, all punches) and send to our payroll department because ECI isn't a payroll provider you currently support.

Same individual forced to have multiple emails

In the Security industry it is very common for staff to work part-time for several companies and several of those companies are using Humanity to manage their workforce and scheduling and because of Humanity restrictions, that staff is forced to use a different email for each company.

This is not only a big inconvenience for people who have to manage several email accounts but for the companies that hire them because it breaks Humanity import routine and makes automation very difficult.

From my perspective, this is not so difficult to solve. For example, it would be enough to add the company ID to the email to form a new composite primary key.

Thanks!

Time Clock Terminals

we would like to restrict the time clock locations and the terminals in such a way that if an employee is clocking in from one terminal lets say "A" they should not be able to clock out from a different terminal lets call it "B". They should ONLY be able to clock out from the same terminal where they clocked in at the start of the shift. Our employees are assigned to multiple location and positions. and we have two physical locations. Location A is let's say 2 blocks away from Location B and employees work in both locations but of course, they will be present at any one of the locations at one time. We don't want that someone comes to their shift and clocks in from Location A and then walks coupla blocks to Location B and clocks out from there. We use Humanity stations. The way humanity station is set up, it only displays certain positions w.r.t to that location. Problem is, employees are assigned to the positions that belong to the other locations. 

Set number of days in a week, but not fixed days

It'd be great if it was possible to identify for some employees a set number of days in a week that they want to be scheduled i.e. no more than 4 days/shifts in a week. They would then appear as unavailable if you tried to schedule them for the 5th day in the same week.

7 minutes Rule payroll

 Under the 7 minute rule, clock in and clock out times on Time Clock are rounded to the nearest quarter hour. It is called the * 7-minute rule* because the cutoff is 7 minutes after the clock-in time. ... Many time clocks and computerized payroll programs automatically round the employee hours using the 7-minute rule. We would like to add this feature to Humanity, as currently Humanity only gives the option to set the rounding at 5, 10, 15, 30 and 60. 

Break

Could it be possible to see the break of the employees directly on shiftplanning ?
This way we could know that the staff is not really available during this time.

Shift Acknowledgement on IOS

I didn’t/don’t know if I acknowledged a shift while using the ios app. People live with mobile devices as a primary tool: who doesn’t understand that? Many/most people on the go rarely get to a laptop or desktop. Make the mobile fully functional, and while you are at it, make it work natively on an iPad in the landscape which is the primary viewing for the majority I believe.
The desktop is much clearer and says “All shifts Acknowledged.” Why not on the mobile version as well?This should be intuitive and interactive

Updating the Iphone app

I think the Iphone app is out of date and not very user friendly when it comes to scheduling shifts. The android app looks great and everyone speaks highly about it.

Deleting the extra templates

I think it would be a lot easier if we can delete templates that we are no longer using on the new feature, as it is crowding up the other templates. Thank you, I love the new feature as well! 

Viewing shifts within position at other locations

It would be helpful if staff could view open shifts within their position/skill without being assigned to the location.  

Integration Fix For Bamboo HR

 As the current version of the integration does not support this feature, we would like to be able to sync. only certain employees and/or departments with Humanity through Bamboo HR. 

Employee Type Report

Is it possible to have a report created in which I can export out the "Employee Type" i.e. part-time, full-time, seasonal?  This would be a helpful feature that will help us with future blast messages to selected groups, etc. It will also allow us to have another tool to track employee status. 

Shift Trade and Release

Hi Dev, 

Before the release of the New Shift Trade and Release feature, the employees were able to swap the shifts without any issue but ever since the new feature has arrived, it has made scheduling for the managers a nightmare as we have to enable these 2 options, in order to make the employees swap their shifts. 
https://goo.gl/umwTdY
What if I do not want to enable these options for internal reasons, that does not make any sense, an update should bring comfort and ease in management's work instead it is making our lives more miserable. I request you to either bring the old Trade and Release feature or remove the restriction to enable these options in order to allow the employees to swap their shifts, during the current design. 

Thank you. 

Make phone numbers/maps a hyperlink or clickable

In the notes, make phone numbers have a hyperlink and clickable to make a call or text. Seems like a normal feature in a lot of other applications and websites.

Also allow a "location" to be clickable and open in Google Maps or Maps

Directed Message Board

When adding a message to the message board on the dashboard, it'd be nice to be able to select staff/positions that can see it. That wasy I can have reminders for Position X up there, but Position Y doesn't have to see it.

Modify New Open Shifts Posted Notification

The wording in the new open shifts notification is very confusing for our employees. I'm referring to the notification that is delivered to employees when management posts new open shifts for them to request for work.

For example, this is the actual notification that is delivered to employees when new open shifts are posted - as you can see it has conflicting info - first saying, "Management Trish Connery Walkup has posted your upcoming work schedule. Please login to your account with the link below to view the full details” followed by the true content, "The following shifts have been posted as available for pick-up".

This notification will not be confusing for employees and will make more sense if the first line (statement) is modified.

• Management Trish Connery Walkup has posted your upcoming work schedule. (Can be edited to)
• Management Trish Connery Walkup has posted or added new available shifts to the upcoming work schedule.

Thank you for your consideration.
 
 

Improvement in Leave Module.

Right now employees have the option to turn off the notifications that are very crucial for them to receive, for instance, we want the employees to receive leave rejection message via email but they have the option to turn it off. What we want is to have access to their notifications or a way to force specific notifications for employees. 

Auto Clock in Feature

It would be nice to 'auto' clock in staff who are salary workers.

 

Shiftplanning

Hi Dev Team,

I would like there to be a feature whereby, when you upload a new schedule for your staff, it automatically replaces all of the existing schedules instead of copying it and adding additional shifts on top of the existing ones. While I know that we can clear the schedule and upload a new one, I would like there to be a way where the new schedule automatically replaces the old one and clears it. 

Shift Change Emails to Employees

When shift changes are made for a team of employees, an email can be sent to the employees and supervisors, however it does not list names for the shift changes. If we have 4 employees who are on team 1 and all four have schedule changes, it shows the new times but each employee is listed with "Team 1" instead of their name. Being able to send this information out with names to show who is working which shift would be helpful.

"On Leave" on Dashboard for All Staff

Currently, only managers or supervisors can see the who's "On Leave" screen on the dashboard. They can see who's on leave on the shift planning tab. However, it would be helpful if all of our staff could see who is on leave on the dashboard as decisions for over time, etc are made based on who's at work and who isn't. It is helpful information to see at a glance.

Shift Trade Window - date filter

Hi

Having to reset the date filter (default 1 month) each time you open the trade window is a pain!  We've been missing trade requests as some managers occasionally forget to expand the date range to include all scheduled shift dates, which are generally further than one month ahead.

Could we please have a option (tick box?) to 'show all future shift trades' regardless of date?

Thanks

copy schedule

should have an option to copy an employee's schedule from one week to the next. For when there are employee's that have set schedules.  

Select all option in shift edit window

There should be a check or select all option in the shift edit window to select all employee on an assigned skill. 

Auto Schedule

There should be an ability for the system how many users assigned to a certain skill or multiple skills are needed each day at each location on a shift. 

Flex Staffing Options

Hello, 

We are testing Flex Staffing - where a shift will be posted as needed and operators have the ability to pick them up if they would like to work. It would be beneficial for them to have the ability to accept or decline the shift opposed to only accepting. This way I can track if they actually rejected the shift or if they simply did not see it. Additionally we have the ability fo be flexible with start/end times of these shifts so I was wondering if there could be a "propose new time" option or even a space to leave comments when they decline a shift so they could put something like "I cannot come in at 7am but I can be there by 9am" 

Please let me know if something like this exists or if you think that it might be doable. 

Thanks! 
Amanda 

Auto-Approval that makes more sense

My understanding (how it was explained to me by your people) of how the auto approval system for time sheets works is that it approves the shift regardless of when the shift was worked as long as its on the same day and falls within the criteria to be auto approved (either a set length of time and/or +/- a set amount of time clocked in). 

What i think would make more sense would be to add a way to auto approve if they work the correct shift that they are scheduled for and clock in/out with in a certain time of that shift. 

I think the auto approval section is nice as it would show us only shifts that have an error, but with out it being linked to their actual shift it makes no sense. 

Availability Report

As a manager I should be able to view the availability of the support engineers for a customized date/time range

The availability report only gives the employee count. It doesn't give the employee names.

12 Hour Notification

It would be really nice to have the option for a 12-hour notification or an adjustable time notification. When we have a staff member who is struggling with remembering their schedule, we suggest that they add the shift notification. It would be really nice for them to have the option of getting notice the night before their shift. The 24-hour feature seems a bit too far in advance and the 1-hour feature isn't quite enough time to arrive without being tardy. 

I also think a custom notification would be nice. For instance, if it takes you an hour to get ready and 45-minutes to commute, you could set a 2-hour notification, so that if you forget that you are scheduled, you would be notified and still have enough time to get to work. 

Why unpublished changes are visible to employees.

When I make a change to a PUBLISHED shift or assign an employee to a Published shift the employees can see those changes even before I hit the publish button.

This behavior should be optional or changed to the opposite.

Logically any changes on a shift which are not published by the manager should NOT be visible to the relevant employees until the manager hits the publish button.

 

 

Breaks

I love the new break feature, but as my employees do not clock in or out on Humanity it's not functional for my needs. May I suggest that you allow breaks to show up on the printable daily schedules. I use humanity for scheduling and I print daily schedule sheets. We have to write-in breaks and this would be an easy addition for those of us that may not have integration available with my POS.

employees can view availability?

Notification New Employee & Availibilitiy

If a new employee/staff member is created automatically sent a notification.
Availability from to function, now its only possible to do it by day. I would like to do it by month.

 

sorting by shift

Can we please get a feature to sort the schedule by shift.  It is very difficult to look at the schedule and takes a lot of time to get reports to the unit to show who is working on which unit and which shift. 

If we could sort for example:
Nurses working 7a-7p shift
CNA's working 7-3 shift, 3-11 shift, etc
And even better would to be able to include the unit they are on, so that on one sheet you would see the nurse, CNA, the unit for that shift

Thanks

cvacatuib dasýs

Dear Sir or Madam,
please add to staff members profile, leave section the possibility to enter half days to all sort of leave. by not having this option, we are not able to use humanity for vacation / leave control and the reports.
We require reports that should do calculations for half day as well

I-e -  We should see in the employee leave count that an employee has taken 12.5 leaves

Currently the system calculates just the full day leaves

This is causing us issues and we need to run reports manually using excel which kills the concept of using an automated software

Thanks,Doris 

Notifications for page loading

Currently when the schedule loads we show an indicator at the top of the screen when the server request is being made, but nothing is shown when the browser is trying to parse/render those shifts which on large accounts can lead to issues where they think nothing is happening to they start clicking again which further creates load issues and locks the browser up.

Goal here is to show an indicator that something is still happening so that users are aware of that.

A pop up do saying the page is loading

Ability to filter reports by date and time

Currently our reports only accept a date filter, this task would enable the option to also select a time filter so reporting can be more fine-grained.
