Saved Filters - Ability to Share (Product Idea)

In this release we have added the ability to "share" the saved filters to all other users on Ready Recruit. Until now, this feature was user profile specific. But starting from today, while saving a filter, users will be able to share the filters to the rest of the users in the system.

This action is restricted by a user role permission that has been included within the Roles and Permissions area from the admin dashboard, allowing you to decide which user role should have the ability to delete the company records in the system. By default this permission will be available only for the "Admin" user role.

This permission is labelled as:

Can Manage Shared Filters

Users who do not have the above permission will not be able to share the filters globally to other users but will still have the ability to save the filters against their own user profiles and view the filters shared by others.

Note: If you have more ideas/suggestion about Ready Recruit product, please feel free to add some new product ideas to board. We will review them and implement the suggested features as per their priority. For more details about how to raise a product idea, please visit this link: https://vimeo.com/703934343/a06cf9efdf

Forms - "Save as Draft" Option (Product Idea)

There might be scenarios where the field officers visit multiple apprentices on-site, conduct their portion of the visit individually and then sit down with the supervisor to complete their portion later. But currently, this process is not possible as Ready Recruit forms do not have the ability to save the form and complete/submit it later.

Based on a product idea that we have received that would overcome the above problem, we have added a new "Save as Draft" feature against all the forms on Ready Recruit. This new option will be displayed to the users while completing/submitting a form against all the entities. Users can now save a form as a draft rather than just completing it then and there.

Purchase Orders - New Search Page (Product Idea)

A new search page "Purchase Orders" has been added on Ready Recruit to view, filter and export the purchase order records in the system. The new search will have the following table columns:

Status
Apprentice Name
Description
Supplier Name
Created By
Purchase Order Approver
Purchase Order Number
Date of Supply
Date of Issue
Created On
Total Items
Total Items Amount

Only the search page with the above above table columns have been added in this release. We will adding filters and exports against this new search page in the future weeks.

Companies - View Status Labels (Product Idea)

On Ready Recruit, while placing apprentices against the host companies, the users tend to place the apprentices with inactive host companies in the system. Hence, based on a product idea that we have received, we have added the company status labels against all the company search drop downs in the system. This change will significantly decreases or removes the amount of human errors and helps the users view the host statuses while placing the apprentices against the active host companies.

Placements Search - New Bulk Action

Ready Recruit allows users to perform searches in bulk and update multiple records at a time. In this release we have provided the users with the ability to perform the following bulk action against the applications and placements.

Update Statuses & Sub-Statuses

This action is restricted by a user role permission that has been included within the Roles and Permissions area from the admin dashboard, allowing you to decide which user role should have the ability to delete the company records in the system. By default this permission will be available only for the "Admin" user role.

This permission is labelled as:

Can Bulk Update Placement Statuses & Sub-Statuses

Note: This comes in handy when handling multiple records at a time, and an activity record needs to be created against more than one record.

Astute Payroll - View Available Leave Balances

Customers who use Astute Payroll integration will now be able to view the "Available Leave Balances" on Ready Recruit (Pulled from Astute Payroll system) along with the "Current Leave Balances" under the Leave Balances tab against the Astute Payroll tab on a candidate and placement page.
