This release includes improvements upon the redesigned Peer Schedules screen in My Schedule, which was released on January 15, 2025. The following improvements provide managers and administrative users with greater control over job visibility and enhancing user interaction with peer scheduling information:

  • Job filter customization—Administrative users can now specify which jobs appear in peer schedules through a new Peer Schedules Job Filter added to the Mobile Configuration screen. This filter allows selection among three settings:

    • Jobs Only—Show only jobs (job codes) that match the employee's. This is the default setting.

    • Jobs/Departments—Show only jobs (job codes) that match the employee's and also jobs within the same department as those jobs

    • All Jobs—Shows all jobs at the property.

The following improvements are designed to make scheduling more intuitive and user-friendly, allowing employees to efficiently manage and interact with their schedules and those of their peers.

  • Enhanced Peer Schedules user interface

    • A new Select Job dialog box enables employees to choose specific jobs for viewing schedules, enhancing focus and reducing clutter.

    • The Peer Schedules screen now displays schedules in a grid format, where shifts are shown as buttons. Selecting a shift pulls up a detailed drawer at the bottom of the screen with comprehensive shift details.

    • Peer schedules can now be viewed on days when employees are off.

  • Improved navigation and accessibility

    • The Peer Schedules screen includes a job filter and a date selector to refine the display of schedules according to specific jobs and dates.

    • Employees will see shifts for the selected job and date, displayed in a clear and organized manner, with all shifts starting on the chosen date available for easy viewing.
