Improvements:

HrCenter


Improvements:

  • HrCenter images in form builder will now save properly.


WebCenter


New:

  • Added a new configuration to show the Buzz Invite Code section within the employee’s ‘My Information’ section.

Improvements:

  • Previously, when an employee clicked the details link under their current assignment, the employee would be navigated Assignment tab displaying all assignments they had been on instead of just the assignment they wanted details for. Now after clicking the details link, the employee will be navigated to the Assignments tab and it will be filtered for the particular assignment.
  • Modified timeclock processes to use the raw punch time instead of trying to localize a UTC time when there is no Timezone specified on the order's worksite.
