We've introduced a bunch of improvements to make it easier to browse and find employee documents in the flair HR app. 

Documents are now shown on one list with all necessary data available at once and you can filter them by categories. We've also added the ability to put notes when you upload the document. Handy, if you want an additional description or message. 

Another great option is that you can set the visibility of each document. If you select "HR", the document will only be visible in the HR Salesforce app. Good for sensitive information and to keep the Employee HUB clean. 

We're happy to announce some new updates and improvements for our Shift planner feature. One of our main goals for these new updates was to give Admins/shift managers complete visibility and access for them to schedule shifts and view shifts across all locations in Salesforce.

Multi-Location and Single-Location Mode
Before now, the shift planner could only be accessed through a specific location and shifts could only be scheduled based on that location. Now, you can view your shift planner showing all employees from all locations or filter by multiple locations at a time. 

To access your multi-location shift planner, you start by navigating to the "Attendance" page and clicking on the 'manage shifts' button under the shifts sub-menu.

Users can still have the option to view shifts from a single location by selecting a specific location from the dropdown on the right side of the header bar. Open shifts can only be viewed and scheduled when in single locations mode.

Improved Filtering options
We have improved our filtering options across multi-location and single-location shift planner views. Users can filter by department, skills and locations in multi-location views. We introduced filter pills to help you easily remove a specific filter without having to reset them. These pills will appear at the top of the planner and all employee shifts relevant to the filtered options will appear which also include invited employees.

Departmental and Location View
We also created different access paths for shift managers to view and schedule shifts through specific segments. Similar to the location-based shift planner view, users can also view shifts based on departments through the shifts block on the departments' record pages as well as through the locations record page

Visible colours for predefined shifts in draft state.
Before now, we could not see the colour of our set predefined shifts in the draft state. So we made the outline of the drafted shift as well as the text of the time period in the predefined colour so you can ensure that you're getting the right colour-coded shifts before publishing.

Skills in Shift Planner
To avoid too many unnecessary skills being displayed in the shift planner, we have added an option to indicate when creating a skill if it should be used in shift planning. All employee skills that show in the shift planner are only those that were selected to be used in the shift planner when they were created

Shiftplanner Classic
For some of our users who are not keen on change and are comfortable and familiar with the current process and will like to continue using it, we have decided to preserve the original shift planner which we now call "shift planner classic". This can be found in the dropdown menu in the shifts block of the location page

We know that sometimes you have to manage a lot of absence requests at a time. That's why we've added some updates to the page:

• New filters by type, by employees, and others will allow you to select through the requests.
• Apart from pending requests, approved and rejected absences are now also visible. You may find them in an "All" tab.
• Employee's comments are now available at a glance — just hover over a "bubble" icon to read them.
• Reading an absence request's details is still possible. Click on the absence dates to go there.

We are now working on the next updates for the absence requests, stay tuned! 😉 

During the pay period, many changes and events may happen to employees. Some of them affect how employees are paid. For you to be "on track" with the meaningful events we prepared a bunch of updates for the payroll run page.

The Enhanced Overview is now showing a summary of changes and absences that employees had during the payroll period.

When clicking on the summarized data you'll see the details related to the exact employee and may mark each of the events as "to do" or "completed".

If you'd like to see all the changes for all the employees in the payroll run just select the Data Changes tab or Absences tab, and filter the data the way you need.

You may ask if we keep the salaries overview you had before — we do, with some updates! We moved the tabs with new hires, employees with salary changes, etc. to a filter, added filtering by statuses, and a great summary/average line below the table.

We hope that you find our updates useful and, as usual, we are all open to your feedback!

We've made some new updates on the career page fields! Now you can delete and/or reorder your fields according to how you want them to appear as well as customize fields by adding a label name and a description that can help clarify what goes inside each field.

Labels and descriptions: Career page fields can be customised by adding not just the label name but also a description that indicates the purpose of the field. It is important that fields have a visible description to make sure that users of assistive technology will know and understand what the field is for and therefore improve form completion.

Reordering and deleting fields: Now you can delete fields you don't want after adding them and customize your career page by dragging and reordering your fields according to how you want them to appear on the career page.

Start customizing your career page fields and share your experience with us 🙂!

There are occasions when we have to send emails to candidates at a specific time when we may not readily be available. Now, our new candidate email scheduling feature will bring about that much-needed convenience, such that your emails can be scheduled and delivered to your recipient even when you are away or out of the office. 

To get started, it is important to have a list of email templates to choose from. All you have to do is open 'Email templates' from your Salesforce App launcher menu and create the templates needed.

This is would come in handy for hiring managers and recruiters to help them manage their day-to-day email operations. You can send scheduled emails for candidates individually or schedule emails for multiple candidates at a time.

Email Schedule for a Single Candidate: You can schedule an email right on the candidate's record page.

Email Schedule for Multiple Candidates: To schedule emails for more than one candidate, you can select them from the candidates' list and schedule your email by choosing the template and time you want the recipient to receive them. We also added the option for mass status change, this allows you to change the application status of the selected candidates when scheduling their emails.

We've made a few changes to the shift planner in the Hub. Not only can you view all employee shifts in your location, but we're also giving you the ability to narrow down this view with filtering and viewing options, this is especially important for companies with a high number of employees. 

Now users of the employee hub can view and filter all employee shifts by

• Filter by departments
• Filter by Skills
• Day view
• Weekly view

This was introduced to give our users more viewing options and help guide them in their specific search. We hope you enjoy this improvement. We look forward to your feedback.

We've received lots of feedback about our menu and manager dashboard navigation. We're happy to share some of the improvements we've worked on and introduce a new look for the Employee HUB navigation menu for both employees and managers.

All Employees can navigate through the employee hub app from the side menu that shows a white background with all features of the app listed with identifiable icons for easy access in an organized layout.

For managers, now you can easily switch sections between your employee view and your Manager dashboard. 

The Manager section shows a dark blue background with all features that helps you focus directly on all your managerial functions without the added distractions of other parts of your employee account.

We hope you like these improvements. Feel free to share your feedback, Let us know what you think!

We have introduced a new way to help you navigate and explore the Salesforce HR app with an improved, clear and easy to understand menu structure.

Categorized menu: The salesforce menu has been arranged into groups with submenus to help you easily access different areas of the HR app. New categorized menus include:

• 'Staff & Docs' which comprises all employees, company documents, data changes and teams.'
• 'Compensations' which shows all information about your organization's cost centres, and all employees' payroll and salaries
• 'Attendance' shows all information about the attendance of all employees; their timesheets, shifts, projects, workloads and absences.
• 'Engagement' shows the information on all performance cycles, goals, skills and employee 1:1s
• 'Workplace' gives access to all company locations, departments and Inventory items
• 'Compliance' shows all company policies and absence categories
• 'Workflows' shows all your workflow and evaluation templates and allows you to easily manage all your regular processes and tasks
• 'HR Admin' shows you a quick view of all menus and related submenus 

These new menus will appear by default on the HR app but you still have the option to access other menus in the 'More' section.

Homepage Shortcuts: We added a new section on the homepage to include some of your frequently used features for easy proximity, so you can easily jump right into what you need to get done without having to navigate through all of the different menus. With the new homepage shortcuts, you can easily access your frequently visited features from the shortcut menu on the homepage. 

If you have any questions or suggestions, please don't hesitate to contact us. We appreciate your feedback!

We've improved the way we update time tracking among your devices, apps, or tab copies. Earlier when you executed an action, like clocking in or starting a break, it was not immediately reflected in any other place you opened for time tracking. Beforehand you had to press a specific button to get time synced.

Now it's all being updated in real-time. Try it out!
