      To kick off a new year, the development team rolled out the following updates to the Hero Schedule application. 

      Revamped accrual account maintenance screen

      We changed the look and function of the accrual account maintenance screen, from the simple white screen version to the branded version. This update creates consistency with the user interface and experience. 

      Streamlining time off requests

      streamlined time off requests

      We made it easier to allocate time off hours into one account category. Simply check the button, and the system does the math for you. 

      Sick time policy support

      Added support for sick time policies where (for example) an employee is only deducted 8 hours even if the shift they missed was 12 hours long.

      Scheduled Hours + Hours Worked in Time Cards/reports

      hours worked and hours scheduled columns in time card
      Time card with two columns

      Added a column for both regularly scheduled hours and actual hours worked in both the time card and pay period report.


      All fixes and features can be viewed in our Release Notes, where a version history is published when our development team publishes a new update.
