Q2 2016 Mini Release Upgrades
These upgrades went live on Tuesday September 13, 2016
As well as some general housekeeping and system performance improvements, the following is list of the main additions and enhancements to ShiftMatch.
Same-Day Split Shifts
Improved Usability – change courtesy of YMCA GTA
A same-day split shift can now be created with a variable gap in the middle.
For example, in a childcare environment, staff may be required to work 7.30am – 9am for the before school period and then 3.30pm – 6pm for the after school period.
Alternately, aged care providers may be required to attend a client’s house at 8.30am – 11am to feed and clean at breakfast and again at 4pm – 7pm to handle medications and dinner.

Shortfall Request Hard Decline
Better Staff Management – change courtesy of HotelStaff
A user can now hard decline a shift request online or by prefixing a reply Text with a “-” character (eg: -ABC123).
After a hard decline, no further resends for that Shortfall will be sent to that user.

Role to Determine Visible Worktypes – Stage 1
Improved Versatility. Change Courtesy of: ECMS & Nursewest
The rules around which work types (eg: Casual, Part Time, Full Time, Agency) have been moved from permissions to Roles. This means that specific Roles can be tailored to show on certain work types on the People page as well as Manual Match text boxes.
At this initial stage, we require all ShiftMatch customers to review all Roles and assign work types appropriately, prior to enabling this feature by Oct 13, 2016.
