Feature Ideas

When creating a new school calendar it would be a good idea to have another color so that we could mark half days from other options that are already in the system.

I would love the option to add a "tag" or "alert" to individual employees so HR can receive an email when they enter a new absence. We have employees who have used all of their leave and only have certain options for future absences but we have to rely on catching those absences on our own right now. If I could set an alert to a specific employee and get notified of any of their absences, we could be more consistent with these rules. This would be something the super users could toggle on and off as needed.

It's that time of year when employees are entering future absences for AFTER our next year start date (July 1) and trying to see accurate balances to know if they will lose PTO. It would be super helpful to include (or at least have the option to toggle) any future absences in the Planned Absence calculation so the balances show committed absence time deductions in the new year.

It would be great to have the Report Name export when you pull report detail into an Excel document.

It would be nice for principals and admins to have the ability to select who needs to approve job requisitions, rather than having a strict workflow that each job has to flow through. With a strict workflow, each job type goes to a specific set of people. However, our secretaries, for example, at the high school need to go through the Secondary Director whereas our elementary secretaries need to go through the Elementary Director. But with the current set up, all secretaries would flow through the same set of people. In our current system, all available approvers are listed in a drop down menu and each admin can select who they need to approve the position their requisitioning. All the admin know the individuals that are required and if they miss someone, we/HR can add that person back into the mix.

It would be helpful to have a training to try new features and train new employees without potentially doing damage.

We would love the ability to make changes to a subs profile, or add a sub profile using an effective date, for example we have employees's who will become subs effective 07/01/25, we would like to create their sub profiles, today (05/27/25) but would need them to become effective until 07/01/25. Thank you!

It would be helpful that we could send a message through RR to an employee when they will be without pay as they put in leave. They usually get upset and don't understand they have used all their sick days. Even when there sick leave balance is visible.

We have several employees who do not like change or technology. Is there a way you could create a flyer that walks them through how to put an absence in on their mobile device? The phone version does look different than the computer version and some people have a hard time working both. I was thinking along the same line as the Red Rover Basics for Employees that I hand out to new employees, but for the mobile device.
