Configuration Improvement

More flexible calculation options for 6th and 7th consecutive day overtime

In the Hours Distribution work rules, the OT DT Daily, Weekly, 6th Day OT, 7th Day OT rule item now provides greater flexibility when calculating 6th and 7th consecutive day overtime.

You can now control whether consecutive-day calculations must stay within the same workweek or can continue across workweeks—and apply this logic differently for the 6th and 7th day if needed. This improvement allows overtime rules to more accurately reflect labor policies that treat these days differently.

In addition, the rule now supports applying both consecutive-day and weekly overtime logic together, resolving a limitation where only one type of overtime could be applied.

These updates expand configuration options while preserving existing behavior unless changes are made.

Configuration Improvement

New option controls how premium hours affect weekly overtime calculations

A new option is available in the OT DT Daily, Weekly, 7th Day Anytime rule item in the Hours Distribution work rule.

The Premium Hours Count Towards Weekly OT option allows you to control whether premium hours created by daily overtime limits are included when calculating weekly overtime. When enabled (by default), premium hours count toward the weekly total. When disabled, only regular hours are used for weekly overtime calculations.

Configuration Improvement

New option to apply minimum wage in Minimum Hours Worked Differential rule

A new Use Minimum Wage option has been added to the Daily Differential > Minimum Hours Worked Differential Rule. When enabled, differential earnings created by this rule are paid at the employee’s applicable minimum wage. When disabled (default), the rule continues to use the standard rate.

This improvement provides additional flexibility to support wage compliance requirements.

Configuration Fixed Issue

Missed break earnings now appear as rule‑triggered earnings on time cards

In some instances of previous releases, when the Only allow earning once per day checkbox was selected in a Missing Break Post Punch work rule, missed break earnings could appear as manually added on an employee's Review Time Card screens. This issue occurred even though the earning was generated by the work rule after the employee responded to the missed break prompt.

The software has been updated so that missed break earnings generated by the work rule now appear with the correct rule‑triggered indicator on the Review Time Card screen.

Labor Fixed Issue

Job rate increases now apply from the effective date only

In some instances of previous releases, job rate increases could be applied to earlier days within the same pay period. Previously, when a rate increase occurred mid-period, the updated rate could be applied to all days in the open pay period, including dates before the change.

The software has been updated so that rate increases now apply only from the effective date forward, ensuring pay calculations remain accurate.

Glitch New Feature

Select existing visitor profiles when creating a new glitch

To streamline the glitch reporting process and reduce redundant data entry, the New glitch screen now includes a feature to select existing visitors.

Previously, you were required to manually reenter full visitor details each time a glitch was submitted, even for returning visitors. This led to the creation of duplicate visitor records and reduced the accuracy of historical tracking.

With this new feature, when you select the Visitor radio button and begin entering details such as name, mobile number, or email address, a Search button appears. Selecting this button opens a dialog box listing existing visitor records that match the entered criteria. You can then select the appropriate record, and the software will automatically populate the visitor’s information in the glitch form.

Additionally, if you choose to manually enter visitor information without using the search, the software will still perform a background check for existing matches. When a match is found, the existing record is used instead of creating a duplicate.

This update improves data integrity, optimizes database performance, and allows for more accurate reporting on recurring guest-related incidents.

Glitch, System Configuration, Service

New Feature

Excel export functionality for Job Manager, Glitch Manager, and Zone Manager

You can now export data from the Job Manager, Glitch Manager, and Zone Manager screens to Excel. This new functionality allows for easier reporting, streamlined data sharing, and simplified bulk data management.

  • From each screen, select specific records to export or select the Export All option from the Export menu to export all records.

  • Pagination has been optimized to exclude the All - (Total Count) option, which previously degraded performance. To align with the behavior of other screens, the Records per page option now includes 25, 50, 75, and 100—with 100 being the maximum. This enhancement affects the following screens: Job Manager, Glitch Manager, User Console, Zone Manager, and Section Manager.

  • Exports from Job Manager and Glitch Manager are formatted to match the Core Data Upload templates, allowing you to reimport data without modification.

  • In Zone Manager, exporting is available to users with the View System Configurations, Zone Manager permission.

These new features improve data accessibility and reduce the need for manual data entry across Unifocus configuration modules.

The Employee Productivity report has been restored in Reporter. This updated version includes new parameters that allow you to select KPIs such as Departures and Stayovers, making it easier to measure productivity across employees and departments.

You can generate the report by selecting the desired property, department or job, date range, and KPIs. The report calculates actual vs. goal performance and includes export options for Excel and PDF.

Reporter Improvement

Date format standardized in report configuration screens

Date formatting has been standardized to use the MM-DD-YYYY format in the following reports:

  • Payroll Accrual Summary

  • Payroll Accrual Detail

  • Unifocus Shifts Export

This update aligns date formatting with application standards and provides a more consistent reporting experience.

Reporter Improvement

New display name format option added to Weekly Schedule report

A new First Initial/Last Name option has been added to the Display Name parameter in the configuration screen of the Weekly Schedule report.

When selected, employee names are displayed in the format [Last Name], [First Initial] (for example, Smith, J.). Existing display name options continue to function as before.

This enhancement provides additional flexibility for how employee names are presented in the report.

Reporter Improvement

Shift Difference OT data added to Work Rules Configuration report

The Work Rules Configuration report now includes details for Shift Difference OT work rules. This update allows you to review and validate Shift Difference OT configurations directly within the report, improving visibility into work rule setup and supporting more comprehensive reporting.

Reporter Fixed Issue

Resolved issue for missing details in the Shift Details report

In some instances of previous releases, the Shift Details report displayed summary totals but failed to include individual shift details under certain configurations.

The software has been updated so that the report now consistently displays both totals and detailed data as expected.

Reporter Fixed Issue

Corrected formatting in the Earning Details report

In some instances of previous releases, the Earnings Detail report displayed text with inconsistent line breaks and wrapping.

The software has been updated so that report spacing and line breaks now align correctly with the data presented.
