Features & Enhancements

These features will be available on 28 March 2024. 

WINZ Improvements

• When modifying an enrolment, if the system detects that there is an automatic WINZ application against the child, it will show a warning banner as a first step to remind the user that modifying an enrolment with WINZ might mean they need to modify the WINZ automatic payment. 

• When saving an enrolment where the child has WINZ attached, a pop-up will appear, alerting the user that the change to the enrolment could mean a change required to the WINZ schedule. 

• The Bill Payer field is now mandatory when adding a new automatic WINZ payment to a child. 

Other Enhancements

• Group holidays will now be visible on the Centre Calendar. 

• We have set the Roster Sheet and Roster Scheduler text colour to black. However, on each Roster Activity (under Centre Settings > Roster tab), administrators can customise the colour of the text as well as the activity. 

• The “Sign” column width has been increased on the Staff Roster Audit report, so staff members should have enough room to sign it. 

• We have adjusted the controls of the Email Staff Rosters report. The original checkbox “Include link for staff to Correct & Confirm their Rosters” has been split. Administrators can now choose to either Correct (modify), Confirm their rosters, or both, which will control which links show in the staff roster email. 

Bug Fixes

• Unlocking a child’s attendance manually to edit will now unlock the correct child attendance. 

• The new WINZ schedule should correctly generate for bill payers associated with two children or more receiving WINZ payments.
