First of all, thanks for the wonderful application.
I respect your decision regardless but I wanted to inform one of the reasons for allowing to enter just hours instead of check in time in and out. From my understanding, in US, it is almost like a rule that unless the employees are non-exempt like nurses, shift people (not full time salaried) that are required to check in and check out time, it is not legal or something to ask those professional exempt salaried employees (engineers etc. in IT, bio-pharma, energy etc. all industries) to enter check in and check out time. What is required for such exempt people is weekly timesheet so they can enter hours Mon to Fri for each day how many hours they worked, absent etc. If there is any way to have a simple table like your workday template with these fields 1) dates listed for Mon to Fri 2) code: Work, Holiday, Absent 3) total hours per day and 4)description / comment field, that will be a great time saver. I don’t know coding etc. but for such a good cause that can make this tool useful for many companies like ours, I would be happy to volunteer with anything else like table formatting, testing etc.
If this is complicated, even if we can make an external timesheet but it does not require check in- check out time, and we have a way to enter total hours per week for these codes: Regular, Overtime, PTO, Sick time for only payroll processing only, that will be helpful to save time.
You are probably right… I may have misunderstood. Thanks for informing on workflow, I found a place to attach separate excel timesheet. I think I will need your help on how to capture overtime or expenses in payroll but maybe expenses are automatically captured in payroll and overtime can be entered using earnings. I will try to ask a new question on that after trying to search if someone asked and you already answered that. Thank you so much for all your help
Thanks for this. Any timeline to this? Also how do you rate your product pipeline? how about doing a voting system for your users to vote which feature matter the most to them?
This is a suggestion of a feature that isn’t implement yet (as far as I know).
Could the application push for notifications to team members (ie members of the same department ) when a leave is approved? This is particularly useful in workplaces where there are shifts and medium to large number of staff.
I know it is possible to check the planner and schedule tabs to confirm such information, but that requires constant attention.
It is also possible to manually create an announcement through the app, but that is manual. It’d be preferable to have the option to turn it automatic
Why do you need ALL team members to be notified? While I could understand certain people may need to know the leave status, but I cannot understand the need for ALL team members to do so, especially when you say that the staff is large.
It is exactly as you say. I agree that there is no need to notify everyone.
I may not have been clear enough, forgive me. I meant the direct team members, I have also put in parentheses as an example the department as a group.
So, for a medical complex, this would be like notifying the dentists and their assistants of a dental assistant’s leave(for example). In contrast with sending this same notification to the whole medical staff, which may as well include orthopedics and dermatology. In this instance, it wouldn’t make sense to notify them too, as you have said.
I am very new here but I would love to have the employee handbook available through the employee portal. It would be great to track either what they have read or how long they spent with the Employee Handbook too, although just having an on-line version of the Handbook would be really great and save a bunch of trees. lol
By “the employee handbook” I am referring to the Employee Handbook I have created for my business. I don’t have any idea how it could be hosted, but perhaps different “chapters” or “categories” could be separate documents to track if the employee has actually clicked the link and opened the document. That would be one helpful way to track their contact with the Employee Handbook.
There are many ways to host the employee handbook, either via
Announcement attachment
Document & File Sharing
Discussion attachment
May I know why do you need to know if an employee has read the handbook? Is it very important to track this?
Unless your need is very special, there is already a way to do so. You may start a topic in Discussion, and ask your employee to reply something like “Done” to mean that they have read the handbook.
Hi kapchew, I would like to make a request and a suggestion, My request is: it would be possible that with a HR.my Administrator account, manage 2 or more employer accounts, this would be essentially useful for those who have several LLCs or organizations My suggestion: it is to use the HR.my Administrator account, as a system account only with access to purely system functions such as the creation and deletion of company, manager and user accounts, changing the Employer account’s registered email and password closing the Employer account changing the Employer Portal Name Etc, at least that’s how I did it when I was developing accounting and ERP systems
