Release 15

As part of our new efforts to better communicate our updates, we have just released Release 15.

The major enhancement for this release is to allow the ‘roster’ type to be changed on draft and published shifts. Previously we did not allow this. If you change the roster of a shift then it is similar to deleting the shift altogether and rebuilding it as an ad hoc shift on the new roster with the same staffing:

• the staffing, name and configuration of the shift is retained. You can edit these separately.

• The shift becomes an ad hoc shift, which means that any connection with an underlying template is broken.

Other enhancements in this release include:

• Allowing tags attached to users to be moved with the user. If there is a tag attached to a user and you use the ‘move user’ function then you now have the option to decide if the tag stays with the old shift (which was the old behaviour) or you could move the tag with the user to their new assignment.

• The option to show Events (such as regular staff and training meetings) on the location-based roster page, similar to seeing leave and staff availability.

• Ability to see conflicts on the templates. Previously conflicts would only be shown on draft and published shifts.

• Many small bug fixes and performance enhancements.
