IN THIS RELEASE:
What's New 🚀
Our dedicated team has been working tirelessly to enhance the Rosterfy platform, focusing on user feedback and evolving industry needs. We are excited to introduce a variety of new features designed to improve functionality, streamline processes, and enrich the overall user experience.
Events & Shifts Upgraded
Our teams have been working hard to overhaul the Events & Shifts experience within Rosterfy. Thank you to everyone who provided feedback on the recent in product survey about Events & Shifts, you have helped shape the changes that are coming.
This release will see the first part of those upgrades released, but there is still lots to come in the following releases.
Updated Look & Feel
We have made upgrades to the look and feel of the Events Create page.
The upgrades include rearranged fields to improve page usability. Fields now follow a logical flow, making it easier to complete everything you need to create your event.
Fields are now grouped on pages, based on it's use, to make it easier to find, these include Overview, Date & Time and Location & Format.
There is now inline text to assist with accessibility and understanding of the available fields.
Improved Event Creation Flow
The event creation page now includes a left-hand tab menu throughout the creation process, so you can configure all required fields before saving or publishing your events.
We have replaced the Event Status field with updated action buttons.
You will now be presented with 2 options:
Publish Event: This will save and publish the event, the event status will be Published and it will be visible on the volunteer portal.
Save: This will only save the event, it will be Unpublished and will not be visible on the volunteer portal.
After you select one of these options, you will be presented with a new pop-up screen, allowing you to decide on your next steps:
Create Shifts for the Event
Return to the Events List Page
Create another Event
Publish / Unpublish Events via the Events Listing Page
We have improved the steps required to update the status of your events. Admins are now able to publish or unpublish their events without the need to go to the Event Update page.
Simply navigate to the Events > Events, locate the event you wish to change, click More Actions > Publish Event / Unpublish Event.
Shift Feedback Form Template
Introducing a new form template for the Shift Feedback Form, this template will allow admins to provide a post shift feedback form to users with a shift rating system.
Updated Shift Feedback Form
Three fields will be automatically created and added to the form, eliminating the need for admins to create the fields and manually add them to the form. Let's see it in action.
In the Admin Console, navigate to Forms > List.
Click Create, from the top-right.
Select the form template, Shift Feedback Form, then click Next.
The new fields will be created, and then added to the form. You can now edit the form, and personalise it, as required.
For more information on how to edit and customise forms, check out the Form Builder - Overview article.
Note: The term Shift within the Feedback Form will automatically update based on your updated terminology within the system.
This can be customised by navigating to Settings > Terminology.
Viewing Shift Ratings
Admins will now be able to view and filter the average rating that users have answered on their shift feedback forms. This field will calculate the average of all submitted ratings for the particular shift.
To view this rating, simply navigate to Events > Shifts and add the Average Shift Rating column to your view.
Admins are also able to view the specific rating each individual user has given to the shift.
Simply navigate to View Users.
