Feature Ideas

The chat icon covers more than half of the save button. I would think there are a number of chats launched due to touch screen issues while trying to save. Also having the save button in the corner often makes it difficult to find with different screens.

It would be nice to have a total at the top of an employee's absences that were used that school year by reason...for example - it would show # of sick days taken = 8 total, # of personal business taken = 2 total. Just an easier way to see a quick total of each type of absence that was taken.

It would be nice for the payroll person to be able to reject approved timesheets if there is a problem. For example, an administrator mistakenly approved extra duty time on a district holiday. It would be great if that time entry could be rejected by payroll and sent back to the administrator.

I would love to see an email notification sent to an employee's email if they have a missed a punch on their timesheet the following day. This would help the employee take ownership of their timesheet and make sure they are correcting any errors before payroll.

Because a daily sub permit (in Michigan at least) is only good for 90 days in the same assignment, we need to be able to lock a substitute out of an assignment if we are not able to get a full year permit on that sub. Not all assignments have a staff member attached to it, so we cannot "block from a staff member" and we do not want to block from the school - they could be a great sub, just not meet the criteria for a long term placement. This would make it easier for our district to know we have already used this sub in this assignment and they did not meet the requirements for a full year permit.

We would like the availability to have two different calendar periods. The majority of our employees are from July to June, but one of our groups is September to August and when this group enters time for the Summer, prior to July, it does not deduct it from their current balance and that makes it very confusing for the employee and the approver. Thank you!

It would be nice to create a form on Red Rover and add rules to those forms so once they are completed by either an Administrator, or Candidate it is routed/notified to the correct HR personnel handling those specific forms. Also be able to create a link of those forms and share it with the district website for outsiders to be able to complete.

Have the option in the Calendars section to have holiday, nonworkday, etc. to be able to be entered by position type and not just contract. This would help tremendously on not having to create a new contract for a few specific employees who work different days than others but who work the same number of days in a school year and hence have the same contract. A different absence system our district previously used, the employee position type was how those days were put into the calendar and not by contract.

It would be nice if you could look at the calendar view and determine what types of absences the employee took (e.g. sick, personal, vacation). They could be a different color or even if you toggle over the absence to tell what type of absence it is.

It would be nice if we could sort the home page daily absences by campus, instead of employee type.
