Enhanced attestation control for Out punches without In punches

The Missing Break Post Punch work rule includes a new parameter: Always Send Attestation on OUT Punch when no IN Punch. When this checkbox is selected, an attestation message is sent for Out punches without an In punch on record. If Check for Rejected Punches is enabled, the software includes rejected punches when determining whether an attestation should be sent. This increases the likelihood of finding punches and therefore reduces the chance of an attestation being triggered.

This update supports more accurate and compliant handling of missed break attestations when employees’ In punches are missing, particularly in cases of punch rejection or offline punches.

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.

Improved Exclude filtering logic for home jobs in Employee Sets

This release improves the Exclude filtering logic in Employee Sets to better support configurations based on home jobs.

Previously, using the Exclude operation in combination with the Only Apply to Home Job toggle could result in unexpected behavior, particularly when employees belonged to multiple sets or held both primary and secondary jobs. With this update, the Exclude operation now correctly excludes only those employees whose home jobs match the selected criteria. Employees with matching secondary jobs are no longer incorrectly excluded.

This enhancement allows for more precise configuration of employee sets and better support for assigning different rule items to primary and secondary jobs under the same rule set.

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.

Copy KBIs feature now supports statistical and additional input KBI types

The Copy KBIs feature in the Edit Rooms Forecast screen has been expanded to support additional KBI types. Forecast managers can now copy manager-entered values for the following KBI types from one week to another:

• Input

• Separate – Labor: Input

• Separate – Labor: Statistical

These KBI types can now be selected in the Copy KBIs dialog when they are part of a market group. Values copied always reflect the current manager value, not the system-generated value.

This enhancement further reduces manual forecasting work and supports more consistent week-to-week forecasting.

Paid Amount field in mobile time off requests

In the New Request screen of the Unifocus Mobile App, the Paid Amount field is hidden if no earning types are configured for the employee's home property (which is determined by their home job).

Note: Home job is configured on the Jobs tab of Employee Maintenance.

Resolved issue for budget recalculation with incomplete simple non-flowed shifts

In some instances of previous versions, recalculating the budget resulted in an error if a simple non-flowed labor standard included a shift with start and end times defined for only some weekdays. This occurred even when no standard was applied to the days with missing shift configurations.

The software has been updated so that a budget can be recalculated if a simple non-flowed labor standard includes a shift with start and end times defined for only some weekdays. If no standard hours exist for days without shift time configurations, those days are correctly ignored during the calculation process.

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.

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.

Weekly Employee Schedule report now displays all scheduled shifts per day

The Weekly Employee Schedule report has been updated to display all scheduled shifts per day for each employee.

Previously, the report displayed only the first three scheduled shifts per day, and any additional shifts were not shown. With this update, the shift limit has been removed, ensuring the report fully reflects each employee’s scheduled work.

Rebuilt Employee Productivity report now available

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.

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.
