What's new in flair

If you use our Slack integration, you can configure a daily digest for absent participant of any channel. This scheduler will automatically post your team's absences within the Slack channel!

Our Employee HUB got a big update – we added recruiting part. You can work with candidates, see their data and fill the evaluation form.

We added support for flexible configuration of your employee's workload. You can define working hours per each day – for example, flair allows you to set up a workload for a working student who might work different amount of hours on different days (example: two days 8 hours and one day 4 hours).

We already have support for hiring managers on Salesforce backoffice. But now you can invite any employee to be a hiring manager: they will receive a link and see all candidates directly in the Employee HUB.

We improved our form to add a new employee: we added all required fields and you can now add additional fields using fieldset!

Create new evaluation forms and assign responsible "evaluators" for each candidate. You can collect feedback from your employees and this will help you to choose the right talent. All evaluations are done within the employee HUB.

Take your time to plan shifts for your employees: you can experiment with the schedule and once you are ready you can publish them. Afterwards all shifts will be available in the employee HUB and everyone involved will receive an email notification.

Oftentimes not every employee needs to track their time. For such cases we added support for time-tracking-less configuration of your workloads – after enabling it all timesheets will be skipped.

We know how hard it can be to find specific documents within the employee HUB when you have a lot documents. We added sorting by name and date for each documents category.

No need to use email or Slack to send your employee' files as we now support document uploading within our Employee HUB. As soon as managers review documents and all necessary files, it is immediately available for download.

In case you prefer to plan your employees' shifts for the whole month, we added support for two and four weeks view within our Shiftplanner!

If you work a lot with our new open-shift feature and have a repeated scheduler every week, from now on you can copy the shift-plan from previous week.

Now, our shift planner has another useful feature when it comes to having multiple employees with different skills. You can add filtering only for skills you need. Additionally, you can also publish shifts with your filtered demands.

We added a link to subscribe to your colleagues calendar in Google or Outlook calendars. You can find this link in your Employee HUB.

After you close the payroll run, flair does not allow any changes in time entries and timesheets. If you still need to adjust something, we added a custom permission which allows you to modify any records. Nonetheless, we still save all changes made so you can use it for future audit.

Oftentimes you don't need to make immediate changes to employee's personal data: somethings should only be applied in the future. You can schedule future change of location, department, manager or any other field you prefer.

We implemented multiple filters to your team's absence calendar: it is now possible to filter by location, department, your teams and special groups. You can configure your colleagues' calendar the way you want – we also save your latest filters so you won't have to set them up again each time.

There is a new configuration for absence categories. You no longer have to see absence details for every colleague. This configuration allows you to hide the name of the absence category in the Employee HUB and iCal sync. You can find this configuration "Public" in absence categories page.

We rebuilt all of the time related objects to fully support different timezones for various locations. You can now configure all of it in the location record and then you are set to plan shifts, absences and track time in different time zones!

As you may already know, our payroll runs have an export feature that enables you to export different reports in different formats. We made some adjustments to files regarding payroll runs of leaving employees. We added information about remaining absences and overtime balances within the payroll run. This will allow you to create all necessary leaving documents and create final payments.

One of our most requested features is here! You can now assign your manager as well as employee notes to a shift. All managers' notes are visible directly within the shift planner. Employee notes are visible in print view and the Employee HUB.

In the Employee HUB, we added two new views for shifts – daily and weekly calendar. All important information can be found there.

Open shifts feature is a new way for managers to post shifts that need to be fulfilled without assigning them to specific employees. Once an open shift is created, multiple employees can request to pick it by bidding on the shift based on their available skills. The manager gets to decide who to assign the shift to.

The approach is also strongly employee-driven, letting staff choose shifts that align best with their schedules, all within a collaborative company-wide framework.

Do you use Slack as your collaboration tool at work? Now you don't need to leave it if you want to request a vacation or sick leave – you can open the form immediately from Slack. As a manager, you can approve or reject requests from Slack as well. Sounds interesting?

We released multiple updates for our external career pages. Alongside Google format, we also added meta-tags to improve the overall SEO rating of your job listings. The career page itself got upgraded with the ability to filter job offers by location, department, and type – if you have many jobs, it can be highly beneficial for your candidates.

In the backend part, we added a tracker for all changes between funnel stages. Do you want to know how long candidates stayed in the interview stage or which stage they were rejected? Now it is possible as you can create multiple reports based on this new object.

We added support for weekly and bi-weekly salary types and the ability to have multi-currency wages per individual employee.

We significantly improved our payroll exports: you get all necessary information about new hires and leaving employees, including unused vacations and overtime.

If you feel like adding additional customization on top of payrolls, our invocable method can be used in any flows and process builders.

We improved our create employee wizard which you can start from the list view and from a hired candidate – it is possible now to define start date and a suitable workload. Also, we added an additional configuration to absence categories to restrict deleting approved absences in the Employee HUB.

We know how hard it can be to upload payslips or data protection documents for each employee. You do not need to do it anymore with our bulk uploading tool, which is smart enough to automatically assign files to your employees based on predefined file patterns.

We released an all-new way to work with your payrolls. We know how hard it is to be organized and accurate when it comes to financially sensitive data: you don’t want to make any mistakes. That’s why we added filters, we highlight changes, and you can mark every row as reviewed or in need of attention.

Our payroll preparation now is not just another table: it is a collaboration tool: add notes, attach files and send for approval.

Whenever you are ready with your changes, you can now export all data in different formats, included PDF and XLS. Moreover, you can configure special exports for new hires and leaving employees.

We also did not forget about hourly waged workers: now we collect all-time tracking information for the given timeframe and include it in the payroll.

There are various improvements to our recruiting module. From now on, we support multiple file inputs on the external career page: you can ask your candidate for any additional documents.

If you want better visibility of your job postings, you can benefit from a special Google format we added recently.

We also improved our developer tools: added a new API, support iframe version, and ability to track your job postings origin.

We completely redesigned the whole process for performance reviews and 1:1 meetings. We added support for a new type of questions, and all evaluations now, including the talk itself, are on Employee HUB.

We also released personal goals, which you can review at any time.

Every manager can leave personal encrypted notes about their subordinates, which can be used in their next 1:1 meetings.

There are important backend updates in our Salesforce package: we automatically recalculate all absences and timesheets whenever you edit workloads or add a new holiday: no more manual work.

Our notification system also got something new: you can receive all data change notifications to your email inbox, and employees get notified if there is a new document for them.
