Welcome back to 'In the spotlight' - your regular roundup of the latest Rotaready product updates and insights. This month, we've got some handy mobile updates, a look at how to keep tabs on company assets, and a highlight from Access Evo. Here's what we've been up to:

🚀 This month's releases

iCalendar sync

You can now sync Rotaready with your favourite calendar app, right from the mobile app. Just generate a calendar link from the Settings page and connect it to Apple Calendar, Google Calendar, or any other software that supports iCalendar feeds. Your schedule stays up to date wherever you check it.

Absence type reasons on mobile

Booking an absence on mobile now works just like it does on the web. When required, you'll be prompted to select the relevant absence type reason, making it easier to categorise and manage absences accurately.

⭐️ Product spotlight: Asset Registry

Rotaready's Asset Registry lets you keep track of physical items issued to employees as part of their role, think keys, mobile phones, or uniform. You can record issue and return dates, serial numbers, item values, and notes against each asset, giving you a clear picture of what's out and with whom.

With Asset Registry, you can:

  • Search across your organisation by employee, asset type, or serial number
  • Set up your own asset categories, like keys, phones, or uniforms
  • Issue a new asset to an employee in just a few clicks
  • Mark an asset as returned when someone hands it back or leaves the business

Before processing a leaver, make sure any outstanding assets are marked as returned. Rotaready won't do this automatically when an account becomes inactive. You'll also need the relevant permissions to use this feature, so get in touch with your administrator if you can't see it.

💡 Access Evo - Did you know?

Feed is your centralised hub within Access Evo for managing tasks and notifications across all your Access products, including Rotaready. Access it via the Access Button in the top left of Rotaready, or add it to one of your Evo Spaces.

With Feed, you can:

  • See your top three most critical tasks, highlighted automatically by Feed's AI
  • Complete and archive tasks directly within Feed
  • Filter by product to focus on what's relevant to you
  • Start AI-assisted conversations with Copilot for extra support

For Rotaready Evo customers, Feed also flags wellbeing risks like low employee sentiment and compliance issues, plus milestones like birthdays and anniversaries, so you can act early.
