Build Step-by-Step Workflows
In the HR world, a workflow refers to a predefined series of steps or processes designed to manage and automate various human resource tasks. In flair, users can now easily customize workflow steps and assign a series of tasks to employees, enhancing efficiency and ensuring consistency. Check out our new Workflow guide.

Time Tracking Notes Visibility
We've enhanced the Employee Hub by making time-tracking notes more visible. A note icon will now appear next to time entries that include comments, allowing managers and colleagues to easily see when a note has been added. This improvement is a valuable tool for boosting communication.
For Managers:
- Streamlined Communication: The visibility of notes minimizes the need for back-and-forth emails or meetings to clarify time entries, saving time and effort.
For Employees
- Smooth Communication: The clear documentation provided by the note icon reduces misunderstandings and offers a straightforward way to communicate work details to managers.
Time Sheet and Time Entry Change Approval
Now, you can approve time and change requests alongside timesheets in one step. Previously, you had to approve or decline time and change requests separately before moving on to approve the timesheet. With this new feature, you can handle everything at once.
Help Desk Manager Notification
You can now customize notifications for the HR Help Desk feature. This allows users to assign employees as extra HR Help Desk managers in the flair HR app.
These managers will get changes or requests sent straight to their inbox, so they won't miss a thing. With instant notifications, your team can stay on top of every request and respond quickly. This new feature boosts efficiency and employee satisfaction, making HR management easier and more effective. Try it out now and see the difference.
