Improvements and new features
See the pages below for improvements and new features in version 9.14:
Configuration
Earning types and work rules
Improved overtime rate calculation of piece pay (17259)
When configuring earning types (System Setup > Earning Types), a new Base Pay check box is available in the Include In section. This new configuration option includes the earnings in the Overtime Rate and Post Calculations work rules. If you are using piece pay for an earning type, it must be included in the base pay to correctly calculate the overtime rate.

Budgeting
Improved CSV file and process for batch-importing hours and rates adjustments (16414)
Version 9.09.01 introduced an Import Hours and Rates Adjustments CSV file that budgeting managers could use to add a batch of hours and rates adjustments for a property. This release offers the following improvements to that CSV file and to the processes of batch-importing hours and rates adjustments:
- Accessing the CSV file—The previous version of the document was not available in the software. Users had to download the file from the online help page (Importing your and rate adjustments) or ask their Partner Relationship Manager (PRM) for the document. The renamed Adjustments Template file is now available for export in the Budgeting module.
Completing the CSV file—The previous version of the CSV file was a blank template that contained only column headings. Users had to export a separate CSV file of T&A Codes so that they could manually enter the information in the Import Hours and Rates Adjustments CSV. The improved Adjustments Template file now populates the spreadsheet with every job class line that is linked to a budget line at the property. Additionally, the top three lines of the worksheet contain sample entries. With this improvement, there is no need to export the T&A Codes CSV file. Users can directly edit each line of the Adjustments Template and, if necessary, copy and paste information into a newly inserted row for additional adjustments to a job.
An apostrophe appears in front of each Reconcile Code in the exported CSV file. Do not remove the apostrophe in front of the codes. Just copy and paste the Reconcile Code and the Job Name as they are to another line if you need to make another adjustment for a job. Also, do not double-click in any of the populated Reconcile Code cells; doing so will remove the leading apostrophe and change the code.
For more information, see Importing hours and rates adjustments - version 9.14 and later.
Improvements to the Adjustments Template CSV file (18376)
The following improvements have been made to the Adjustments Template file (Main Menu > Financial > Budgeting > Adjust Hours and Rates):
- The Start Date and End Date fields now default to the year of the working dataset.
- Jobs in the Job Name field are now sorted alphabetically in the following order: Division, Department, Job.
For more information, see Fields in the Adjustments Template CSV file - version 9.14 and later.
Mobile
UniFocus Mobile App
Improved published schedule messages (16671, 16720)
This release improves both the delivery and content of published schedule messages sent to employees who work multiple jobs.
Delivery of messages
In previous releases, employees with multiple jobs received published schedule messages for jobs that they were not scheduled to work. This issue led to employees receiving excessive unnecessary messages about being off all week rather than only receiving the necessary messages about when they were scheduled to work. For example, Employee A and Employee B each work two Food & Beverage (F&B) jobs: Banquet Server and Banquet Bartender. If the Bartending Manager schedules only Employee C for a bartending job this week, Employee A and Employee B would receive a published schedule message notifying them that they are not scheduled to work this week.
In this release, employees with multiple jobs receive published schedule messages only for jobs that they are scheduled to work.
Content of messages
In previous releases, when employees with multiple jobs received published schedule messages, jobs for which they were not scheduled displayed the text "Off." This text led to confusion about whether employees were actually off or just not yet scheduled to work. Employees could have assumed that all schedules were published; however, there might have been a day with a pending (or unpublished) schedule for which "Off" was displayed.
In this release, when employees with multiple jobs receive published schedule messages, they are only informed of jobs for which they are scheduled. If they are not yet scheduled, there is no reference to a shift time.
Improved sort and filter functionality in Employee Schedules and Time Off Requests screens (16721, 16723)
This release features improved sort and filter functionality in the Employee Schedules and Time Off Requests screens of the Mobile App. These new options accommodate lengthy employee lists that contain multiple employees whom a manager typically does not schedule.
Employee Schedules
On the Employee Schedules screen, filter options include:
- Only show scheduled employees
- Only show Home Job employees
Manager can now sort ascending and descending employee schedules by:
- Name
- Seniority
- Job Rank
Time Off Requests
On the Time Off Requests screen, filter options include:
- Job
- Only Home Job employees
Manager can now sort ascending and descending time off requests by:
- Name
- Seniority
- Date Entered
- Time-off-request start date
Performance enhancement to the mobile Employee Schedules screen (17123)
This release features quicker load times for managers’ Employee Schedules screen in the UniFocus Mobile App.
Improved filter functionality in Employee Schedules (18597)
The UniFocus Mobile App now prompts first-time users to select jobs that they want to filter before they use Employee Schedules. The Employee Schedules screen appears after the filtered jobs are selected.

Summary |
RMS users who are not mapped to an Employee ID in Employee Maintenance can now add and view Time & Attendance tiles in the Manager Portal screen.
|
---|---|
Description | In previous releases, RMS users who were not mapped to an Employee ID in Employee Maintenance could not add and view Time & Attendance tiles in the Manager Portal screen. Users received the following error message: "User must also be an employee." This issue prevented non-employee users, such as UniFocus Consultants, from modifying the Manager Portal screen.
|
Solution | The software has been updated so that non-employee users who are not mapped to an Employee ID in Employee Maintenance can now add and view Time & Attendance tiles in the Manager Portal screen. They will no longer receive error messages. |
Updated versions | Version 9.14 and later. |

Summary | When users with UFTC Punch to Schedule enabled for secondary jobs punch in to their secondary jobs, the punches are correctly assigned to the secondary jobs. |
---|---|
Description | In the Time Clocks RMS configuration screen (System Setup > Time & Attendance > Time Clocks), the UFTC Punch to Schedule option authorizes the Time Clock to automatically associate an employee's punch with a job, based on the schedule.
In some instances of previous releases, when users with UFTC Punch to Schedule enabled for secondary jobs punched in to their secondary jobs, the punches were incorrectly assigned to their home jobs. |
Solution | The software has been updated so that when users with UFTC Punch to Schedule enabled for secondary jobs punch in to their secondary jobs, the punches are correctly assigned to the secondary jobs. |
Updated versions | Version 9.14 and later. |
Financial
16604
Summary | When setting up a percent of base line, the Budgeting software now allows users to calculate percentages of negative dollar values. |
---|---|
Description | In previous releases, when setting up a percent of base line, if the base line that users wanted a percentage of had a negative value, the line returned a value of a zero. The cause of this issue was that the software only allowed users to configure a range between zero and 99,999,999.00. Because negative values were considered invalid, users could not budget a credit to a line. For example, if the value of the base line that users wanted to link to was $-5,000.00 and that base line was configured to be 50 percent, the system would return a value of zero, even though 50 percent of $-5,000.00 is $-2,500.00. |
Solution | The Budgeting software has been updated to take the absolute value of the line to determine if it qualifies for a percentage. To qualify, the value must be between zero and 99,999,999.00. If the line qualifies, the software then takes the configured percentage of the actual value. For example, if the value of the base line that users want to link to is $-5,000.00 and that base line is configured to be 50 percent, the software does the following:
|
17474
Summary | The data load associated with the Manage Budget Lines screen has been reduced. |
---|---|
Description | In some instances of previous releases, users received error messages when opening the Manage Budget Lines screen. This issue occurred in installations where users added extremely large reference datasets that required more system memory than the users had available to them. |
Solution | The software has been updated to improve memory management. |
Updated versions | Version 9.12 and later. |
17495
Summary | When saving changes after deleting a budget line, users no longer encounter the following error message: "Incorrect syntax near ')'." |
---|---|
Description | In some instances of previous releases, saving changes after deleting a budget line resulted in incomplete data that caused the system to return the following error message: "Incorrect syntax near ')'." This error occurred because the system allowed the passing of a null entry when saving to the database. |
Solution | The software has been updated to correct a condition that allowed the passing of a null entry when saving to the database. Now incomplete data cannot be sent. |
Updated versions | Version 9.12 and later. |
Infrastructure
17729
Summary | Separate instances of UniFocus RMS software can now be open simultaneously.
|
---|---|
Description | In some cases, you might want to open separate instances of the RMS software. For example, you might want to have one open instance displaying the Timeline Scheduling screen and another open instance displaying the Revenue Center Forecasting screen. By viewing side-by-side instances, you can use the revenue center forecasting data to make informed decisions about how to schedule employees.
Although RMS software allowed for multiple instances in past versions, a recent version introduced an issue that prevented multiple open instances. If you tried to open a separate instance, the system sent an exception error.
|
Solution | The software has been updated so that separate instances of RMS software can now be open simultaneously.
|
Updated versions | Version 9.12 and later. |
Labor
16416
Summary | Jobs with the standard type set as Simple Non-flowed no longer result in overstatement of projected and standard hours. |
---|---|
Description | In previous releases, jobs with the standard type set as Simple Non-flowed occasionally resulted in overstatement of projected and standard hours. This issue was caused by software miscalculations of minimum and maximum shift lengths. |
Solution | The software has been updated to properly handle minimum and maximum shift lengths. |
16735
Summary | The Edit Revenue Center Forecast screen now correctly saves users' edits to the Manager Forecast fields. |
---|---|
Description | In previous releases, in some instances, users' edits to the Manager Forecast fields in the Edit Revenue Center Forecast screen were not being saved properly, particularly when the users were rapidly making a number of successive edits. After edits were made, the page was refreshing before all edits had saved. |
Solution | The software has been updated so that refresh timing in the Edit Revenue Center Forecast screen allows for rapid, successive data entry. |
17267
Summary | All calculated KBIs are now correctly calculating when users generate revenue center forecasts and then add an environment from the Edit Revenue Center Forecast screen. |
---|---|
Description | In previous releases, when users generated revenue center forecasts and then added an environment from the Edit Revenue Center Forecast screen, the system correctly recalculated the revenue center KBIs based on environment-matched history but failed to recalculate calculated KBIs that use the revenue center KBI in their formulas. |
Solution | The software has been updated so that all revenue center KBIs and calculated KBIs are correctly calculating. |
Updated versions | Version 9.12 and later. |
Mobile
15855
Summary | Managers no longer see error messages when viewing Open Shifts in the Employee Schedules screen of the UniFocus Mobile App. |
---|---|
Description | In previous releases, if managers who had access to several jobs tried to view Open Shifts in the Employee Schedules screen of the Mobile App, they received an error message caused by a system time-out. |
Solution | The software has been updated so that managers with access to several jobs do not receive an error message when viewing Open Shifts in the Employee Schedules screen of the UniFocus Mobile App. |
16222
Summary | In the Mobile App, employee shift giveaway messages now provide more detailed information to managers. |
---|---|
Description | In previous releases, shift giveaway messages did not provide meaningful information to managers. The messages provided only the name of the employees initiating the shift giveaway, not the employees who were interested in picking up the shift. |
Solution | The Mobile App has been updated so that shift giveaway notification messages to managers provide details on both the employee who submitted the giveaway request and all of the employees who are interested in the shift. |
16401
Summary | Mobile users now can perform any punch action after the Time Clock screen refreshes. |
---|---|
Description | In previous releases of the Mobile App, if users did not perform a punch action within a certain amount of time, a message appeared and asked them to refresh the screen. When users tried to clock out, they received an "Invalid Punch token" message. The screen did not refresh and the user would have to sign back in to the Time Clock screen. As a result, users could not perform any punch actions after the Time Clock screen refreshed. |
Solution | The Mobile App has been updated so that users can perform punch actions after the Time Clock screen refreshes. |
16551
Summary | In the Mobile App, Manager Alerts now display employees' correct punch status. |
---|---|
Description | In previous releases of the Mobile App, if a manager changed an employee's clocked in job, their Profile screens in Manager Alerts displayed their status as OUT instead of IN. However, in the Clocked In screen, the employees' statuses were correctly displayed as IN. |
Solution | The Mobile App has been updated so that if a manager changed an employee's clocked-in job, both the Profile and Clocked In screens display the correct clocked-in status. The employees are shown as available for the new job. |
16556
Summary | In Mobile App version 2.0, shift requests now send the correct number of notifications. |
---|---|
Description | In previous releases, when Mobile App version 2.0 users created shift request actions, the recipient of the message received both the message and a duplicate message. If a user enabled push notifications, recipients still received two messages. |
Solution | The Mobile App has been updated so that shift request actions only send one message to recipients. |
16557
Summary | Several Mobile App notification messages have been rewritten to improve clarity and provide more detail. |
---|---|
Description | In previous releases, several Mobile App notification messages did not clearly communicate the details of employee requests. These issues affected the following message types:

16563
Summary | In Mobile App version 2.0, users on Android and iOS devices can now scroll through messages with multiple lines. |
---|---|
Description | In previous releases, Mobile App version 2.0 users with Android and iOS devices could not scroll through a message with five or more lines. As a result, they could not easily read the entire message. Users had to do the following to read the entire message:
|
Solution | The Mobile App has been updated so that users can create a message with multiple lines and use the scroll bar to view it. |
16597
Summary | In the Mobile App, the Profile screen no longer incorrectly displays job information vertically. |
---|---|
Description | In previous releases of the Mobile App, job information in the Profile screen was displayed vertically under the employee's name. As a result, information was harder to read because it wrapped onto multiple lines. |
Solution | The Mobile App has been updated so that Profile screen information appears horizontally. |
16755
Summary | The security question is now a required field for managers who are signing on to the UniFocus Mobile App for the first time. |
---|---|
Description | When manager-level users sign on to the UniFocus Mobile App for the first time, they must complete the initial setup steps. This setup includes adding a security question and answer. In previous releases, when managers were directed to the screen for entering their security question and answer, they were not required to select a security question. If they entered an answer without selecting a security question and then selected Set Security Question, managers would go directly to the sign-on screen. Then, if they attempted to sign on, the Mobile App would send them back to the security question and answer screen. |
Solution | In this release, the software has been updated so that manager-level users must select a security question when signing on to the Mobile App for the first time. |
17038
Summary | Mobile App re-registration issues have been resolved in this release. |
---|---|
Description | In some cases where employees forgot their Mobile App credentials (either user name, password, and/or answer to security questions), database administrators might have re-registered the employees. Some data points, such as verification codes and expiration dates, were not correctly updating during this re-registration process. In previous releases, this re-registration resulted in employees not being able to log in to their accounts. |
Solution | The software has been updated so that data points are now correctly updating and re-registered employees can log in to their accounts. |
17051
Summary | In the UniFocus Mobile App, the Time Off Request screen header no longer disappears after a user swipes through three requests. |
---|---|
Description | In previous releases of the UniFocus Mobile App, the Time Off Request screen header would disappear after a user swiped through three requests. |
Solution | The software has been updated so that the Time Off Request screen header remains on the screen when users swipe through requests. |
17138
Summary | Removing users' access to Employee Requests in the Security screen now restricts their access to Employee Time Off Requests and Call Ins mobile screens. |
---|---|
Description | In previous releases, if administrators denied users Employee Requests permission in the Actions tab of the Security screen, those users were still able to access Employee Shift Requests and Call Ins. |
Solution | The software has been updated so that if administrators deny users Employee Request permission in the Actions tab of the Security screen, those users will not be able to access Approve TORs, TORs Alert, and Approve Shift Requests in Employee Time Off Requests and Call Ins mobile screens. If the user does not have access, these options are also removed from the alerts screen and the left side menu. |
17371
Summary | When employees submit time off requests that are sent to a large number of managers, the process no longer times out and sends error message to employees. |
---|---|
Description | In previous releases, when employees submitted time off requests that were sent to a large number of managers, a time out message occurred and an error was sent to the employees. This issue occurred because the process timed out. |
Solution | The software has been updated so that the process no longer times out when employees submit time off requests that are sent to a large number of managers. |
Updated versions | Version 9.12 and later. |
17702
Summary | In the UniFocus Mobile App, sorting the managers' Employee Schedules screen no longer separates employee split shifts. |
---|---|
Description | In the managers' Employee Schedules screen of the UniFocus Mobile App, when employees have split shifts, the second shifts for the day appear in an unnamed row under the employees' names. In previous releases of the Mobile App, when managers sorted the screen, split shifts moved to the top or bottom of the screen (depending on the selected sort order). This issue caused split shifts to detach from the employees to whom they belonged. The issue occurred because split shifts appeared in unnamed rows under the named row of employee's first shift, and the sort functionality could not associate the unnamed row with the correct employees. |
Solution | The software has been updated so that sort functionality no longer separates split shifts for employees. A code fix enabled the unnamed rows of second jobs in a split shift to remain attached to the employees. |
Updated versions | Version 9.14 and later. |
17703
Summary | In the UniFocus Mobile App,, filter option labels in the Manager Schedules screen are no longer truncated when there is sufficient space to display the complete label name on the screen. |
---|---|
Description | In the UniFocus Mobile App, filter option labels are truncated only if there is not sufficient space to display the complete name on the screen. In some instances of previous Mobile App versions, filter option labels were truncated in the Manager Schedules screen even if there was enough space to display the complete label. For example: Correct
Incorrect (Issue identified in this ticket)
|
Solution | The software has been updated so that filter option labels in the Manager Schedules screen are no longer truncated when there is sufficient space to display the complete label name on the screen. |
Updated versions | Version 9.14 and later. |
17735
Summary | In the UniFocus Mobile App, employees' split shifts now correctly appear in chronological order on managers' Employee Schedules screens. |
---|---|
Description | In some instances of previous releases of the UniFocus Mobile App, employees' split shifts incorrectly appeared in reverse chronological order on managers' Employee Schedules screens. For employees with split shifts, their earlier shifts appeared on the bottom row instead of on the top row. |
Solution | The software has been updated so that employees' split shifts now correctly appear in chronological order on managers' Employee Schedules screens of the UniFocus Mobile App. |
Updated versions | Version 9.14 and later. |
18314
Summary | In the UniFocus Mobile App, the Time Off Request screen header no longer disappears after a user swipes through three requests. |

Updated versions | Version 9.14 and later. |
19862
Summary | The message in the UniFocus Mobile App invitation email no longer references managers' UniFocus user names. |
---|---|
Description | In previous releases, when managers invited employees to join the UniFocus Mobile App, the invitation email contained a message that referenced the managers' user names: This message could be confusing because employees might not know the system user name of their managers. |
Solution | The software has been updated so that when managers invite employees to join the UniFocus Mobile App, the invitation email contains a message that does not reference managers' user names:
|
Updated versions | Version 9.10 and later. |
