A team update above the number of people on shift now A team update above the number of people on shift now Overview is the app home. It puts team posts beside the parts of today’s work your role can reach. Managers who can see team hours start with team highlights. Everyone can use the employee view for their own shifts, time off and public holidays.

One home for updates and today’s work

The feed carries posts your role may view, with pinned posts first and categories available as filters. Beside it, the dashboard can show time tracking, birthdays and people who are out of office. The exact set changes with your permissions, so two managers may not see the same cards.

Overview selected in the app, with a pinned team update in the feed

Cards are working shortcuts, not only summaries. An upcoming shift opens its details, and the schedule and time-off cards lead to the full area when you need more than the preview.

Posts are not Messages

Use a post for an update people should find in Overview, such as an announcement, event or poll. Use Messages for a channel conversation or a direct message. Both belong to the Messages and Posts add-on, but they remain separate surfaces.
