We've added GPS tracking to our time clock app to ensure staff clock in and out at the desired locations. When enabled, the time clock app collects GPS location information during clock-in and clock-out. You can review this data when approving timesheets, allowing you to verify staff presence and avoid paying for hours outside the actual work sites.
To enable this feature, go to Settings -> Time Clock App, turn on "Enable collecting GPS location" option, and then make sure time clock app is updated to v2.2.0 or newer.

You now have the option to show the total hours for members or days on the printed roster. This feature allows you to use the information for analytics purposes or for staff to easily know the hours they need to work.
If you need to update a staff member's login email, you can now do so directly on their profile. Updating the email address on the profile will automatically update the login email for the staff member.

Timble mobile app now allows staff members to submit their own leave requests, eliminating the need for managers to manually load the requests. Managers can simply approve or decline the requests, saving time for both managers and staff members.
Once this option is enabled, staff members will need to update their mobile app to version 1.4.0 or newer. After the update, they will see the "Leave" menu in the Accounts screens of the Timble mobile app.
In terms of leave permissions for managers, the "can add/approve leave request" permission has been retired and replaced with three new permissions:
These new permissions provide precise control over what managers can and can't do regarding leave requests. By default, leave requests will be sent to the department manager. If no one in the department has the permission to approve or decline leave requests, the requests will be sent to the admin for approval or decline.
Previously, shifts had to be removed when adding a leave request. However, with the new update, shifts and leave can coexist on the same day. For example, if a staff member is assigned a shift and then gets sick, they can submit a sick leave request. The manager can then tag the shift as "Sick" to keep a record of it for future reference.
This page allows managers to easily add, edit, and filter leave requests without the need to open each member's profile and switch to the Leave tab. This streamlines the process and makes leave management more efficient.

As of today, staff members can now submit their own unavailability directly through Timble mobile app. This means that managers can easily see who is available when creating weekly rosters, without having to manually look up emails or rely on staff members to notify them in advance.
To enable this feature, just go to Settings → General, and turn on “Allow team members to submit unavailability” option.
With this new feature, staff members no longer need to send emails about their unavailability, saving them time and reducing the risk of miscommunication. Managers can also save time by quickly reviewing the unavailability information in our system, instead of having to track down individual emails.
Staff members who have not been assigned shifts for the week may inquire about the roster's publication status. Now, they also receive email notifications once the roster has been published. Just need to select “Publish all shifts” when rostering is completed.

Starting today, staff leaves are now editable for the payroll person. This means that the payroll person can simply amend the leave hours based on the staff's leave balance without having to unapprove and approve the leave again.

A new leave type, "Unpaid Leave," has been added to Timble. This feature will allow employees to take time off from work without pay, while also providing managers with better visibility and control over their team's time off.

We are excited to announce a new feature that will make managing your team even easier. With our latest update, managers can now change the sequence of team members in the roster role view.
Previously, the sequence of team members in the roster view was determined by their order of addition. This could be inconvenient when managers needed to reorganize the team for better efficiency.
We hope this makes it easier for you to manage your team and improve productivity. If you have any questions or feedback, please don't hesitate to reach out to our support team.

We've added a new feature that allows managers to view their rosters by role. This feature is designed to help managers ensure that all roles within their departments are covered, giving them greater confidence in the rosters they create for the following week.
How it use:
Using the "view" role, managers can quickly assign multiple members a role. Simply hover over the role header and click the "Add Member" button (a person with a plus sign). A list of members will appear, from which you can select the staff members you want to assign the role to. Once you have made your selection, click "Assign.”

We are excited to announce the release of our new Shift Tagging feature on the mobile app. This feature allows managers to assign tags to any shifts on the go, making it easier than ever to keep track of employee attendance and schedule changes.
With the Shift Tagging feature, managers can assign the following tags to any shift:
This feature eliminates the need for managers to use their laptops to do shift tagging. They can now do it on the mobile app anywhere, anytime. This means that managers can stay on top of their team's rosters and attendance even when they are away from their desks.
