Easily clear away shifts and activities from the schedule with one click. Just select which surfers and days of the schedule you want to clear and let Surfboard do the rest.

How it works

• In week view, click the sweep icon 🧹
• Select the surfers whose schedules you want to clear and the date range. You can clear up to one month of shifts at a time, including any activities that are scheduled within them.
• Choose if you want to remove or keep any manually edited shifts. This is helpful to protect you from clearing away any edits you’ve made for shift swaps or surfer requests.
• Hit clear shifts, and your schedule will be updated!

Flag day may be June 14th in the US, but it's flag day for Surfboard today 😎

We know managing international teams is tricky, and time zones make it even harder. At Surfboard, we like to think we've helped to get rid of that faff and make things simpler.

That's why we're excited for our latest release - flags!

Whenever a timezone or time difference is referenced in your schedule, you'll now see a handy little flag emoji to help you quickly identify the location.

We've just released our new 'Time Insights' feature. Tap on any surfer in your daily schedule to see a breakdown of how many hours they're scheduled on each activity across days and weeks.

Companies that work across multiple locations or have lots of teams can end up with a lot of shifts. Well, we’ve made it easier than ever to find the shift you want when building out your shift plans.

Plan shifts even faster with our new search and sort tools in the shift pattern builder 🔍

Looking for a shift?

• You can sort your team’s shifts by the shift name (A-Z or Z-A) , start time (early to late or late to early), timezone (A-Z) or creation date (new to old)
• You can search your team’s shifts by the shift name, times or timezones to quickly find the shift you want.

A short and sweet release from us today to make surfing smoother 💖

Keep track of where you are in the day across any timezone, with the ‘time now’ line in your schedule.

Changing timezones is now easier than ever, the ‘time now’ line always helps you orientate yourself so you know exactly what your team are working on right now.

Hi there,

Get an easy overview when the schedule was last published and by whom with the ‘last published’ tag. Stay in control and in the know.

Reduce the time spent messaging managers asking ‘who published the schedule’. The ‘last published’ tag gives you all the information you need to answer your daily questions.

How it works

When in the publish view, the ‘last published’ tag will tell you when the schedule you are currently viewing was last published. Hover over the tag to see a breakdown of:

• What period of the schedule was published
• Which manager published it
• The time and date they published it
• Which surfers schedules were published

The tag updates to show the relevant information for the week you’re currently looking at, so you can scroll to any week of the year and get a quick insight into how up-to-date this schedule is..

You can now publish schedules for specific teams or surfers in Surfboard 💪!

• Gain even more control over your schedule with the power to publish selected teams or surfer’s schedules, whenever you want.
• Team leads can better manage their own team’s schedules, without worrying about disrupting others. Updates scheduled can be shared whenever they need to.
• Managers can adapt to last-minute shift or activity changes quickly and easily.
