Hi there,

It’s a new year and time for episode 4 of ’In the spotlight’. Here's what we've got in store for you in this month's edition:

  1. Star of the month - Dashboards
  2. Did you know? - A look at Sanitisation
  3. What's New? - It's Rotaready Evo updates galore

So, without further ado...

⭐ Star of the month: Dashboards

Get an instant overview of your business operations the moment you log into Rotaready.

Your dashboard gives you a quick, high-level snapshot of critical information so you can make informed decisions at a glance.

Why you’ll love dashboards:

Customisable widgets: Tailor your dashboard with widgets like rota progress, wage percentages, staff updates, and cost control metrics. Organise them with labels for a workflow that makes sense to you.

Collaborative control: Share dashboards with colleagues or create department-specific views for consistent visibility across teams.

Direct report access: Need more detail? Click “Go to report” on any widget for a full breakdown.

Ready to explore? Check out our knowledge base article, or watch our quick 2-minute demo to learn how to set yours up.

🤔 Did you know?

Rotaready’s intelligent sanitisation rules keep payroll accurate by automatically handling early clock-ins and late clock-outs.

You can customise how these scenarios are treated—such as paying from scheduled start times or requiring manager approval for overtime. Your organisation’s policy was set up during onboarding, however our Support team can help with any changes.
