New Chatbot

We’re excited to introduce Pete, our new in-platform chatbot designed to provide quick responses and guidance. Pete can help with common questions, offer step-by-step support, and point you to relevant resources, making it easier to get the help you need.

For more complex issues, you’ll still be able to reach out to our support team for assistance.

Improvements to Job Publishing Time Selection

When publishing a job, Selecting Time(s) has been enhanced so that time fields remain hidden unless deliberately selected.

When standard time is selected, shift start and finish times are now displayed alongside the shift name in the selection box, making it easier to confirm the correct option.

Additionally, a new warning popup has been introduced to remind users to check payroll hours. This appears for organisations using set payroll hours when the Specific Time checkbox is selected and shifts are available.

Role Management

The creation and management of Roles has now been moved into its own dedicated section within Our Profile.

What’s changed:

• Schools / Education: The process remains simple – select Roles from the list and click Save.
• Other organisations: You can create new Roles or edit existing ones much the same way as before, but now all Role-related settings are consolidated in one place.

New Organisation Bulletin Chat

When messaging is enabled for the first time in an organisation, the system will automatically create an organisation-wide bulletin chat, with the Prime User set as the admin.

Scheduled Reports

Simplifi clients using Excel reporting can now schedule reports to run automatically at any time. Scheduling is managed directly from the Reporting Module.

Refined Availability Warnings

Availability checks have been improved to provide clearer, more consistent warnings when adding staff to the roster. The system will now flag situations such as:

• Pending leave requests
• Compliance warnings
• Staff member assigned to a different role (where permitted)

In these cases, the “Add to roster” button will turn yellow and a warning popup will provide further details.

Automatic Role Updates in Questions

Assigning questions to roles is now simpler. Instead of manually adding each role, you can set a question to apply to all roles. Any new roles created in the future will automatically be included, removing the need for ongoing manual updates.

Internal Features

Platinum Payroll CSV

Platinum payroll is called EasiPay - we now have a csv file export to support this.

Daylight Savings

There is an optional setting where the extra hour for daylight savings is now added onto or taken off the hours for a timesheet details that spans the daylight savings time.

Add TS / Org / Job numbers to JAS inspection tool

Upgraded our internal JAS inspection tool to work not just for DB OIDs but also for Organisation, TempStaff and Job IDs so we can easily inspect any object regardless of the identifier we have.
