New Features in 4.58

Indicator for a "switched" user​

This release introduces an additional indicator for switched users:
In addition to the name, a green ring around the user picture shows that you are working as a switched user. As a result, the green back arrow is removed due to the redesign of the navigation bar (= the top edge of the view with the thumbnail of the user picture, access to the settings and to help, etc.).

Extended help options in the navigation bar​

As a local admin, the following help options are available when you click the question mark icon:

  • Help for this page → directly to the matching page of the manual
  • User Help → link to the start page of the manual
  • Create support tickets → option to submit a support request, identical to the function in the menu tree
  • About Personalwolke → user info on the version, etc.

Users without admin permissions do not see the Create support tickets item.

New titles for reports in HR Expert​

In the Personnel area, the titles of the various lists were adapted to the designation in the selection list.

Previously:


New:

Removal of the client name in parts of HR Expert​

In the display of some HR Expert functions, the client name is shown repeatedly. This makes sense for users who have access to multiple clients.
For users who access only one client, however, this results in an unnecessary repetition of the client name.
The display of the client was therefore combined with the user's access options, so that the client is no longer shown in such a case. This affects the following functions:

Org chart query (Organization → Org Chart)​

Persons query​

(Note: the new title of the list can already be seen here, see above)

Organizational unit query (Organization → Organizational Unit)​

Extended selection list when booking project time expenditures​

It is now possible to extend the project selection list used when booking time expenditures with additional columns that make it easier to find a particular project more quickly when needed.

The following columns can be added on request:

  • Planned hours
  • Total hours worked
  • Total billable hours worked
  • Remaining billable hours

If needed, please contact our Support or our Consultant Team!

Changed display of absence reasons in selection lists​

In the future, absence reasons will be displayed in the selection lists of the Correction Client and the Absence Client in the following format:
(ID number) Abbreviation of the absence reason - Absence reason (spelled out)

Example: (4) K - Sick
A list of the absence reasons available by default can be found HERE.

Persons overview: Organizational unit instead of group​

In the Persons overview table po_showPersons.act, the column heading "Group" was renamed to "Organizational Unit", since by definition only org chart groups = organizational units, and no other types of group assignments, are listed here.

Removal of the job plan when not in use​

The "Job Plan" feature is now displayed only if it is actively used. For users who do not use it, it has been removed from the applications for the sake of clarity.
