Features & Enhancements

These features are available now!

Family Boost

• (Released 1 July 2024) We have added the Licence Number to all invoices and statements to ensure we’re meeting the IRD requirements for families to upload their invoices via MyIR from October 2024. 

My Workspace

• We’ve added the ability for larger tasks requiring heavy processing to be moved into the background and then recalled at a later time. For any larger reports or bulk actions that take significant processing power, Discover will shift these to the background, and a button will appear next to the “Need Help?” button called “My Workspace”. Any reports or bulk actions that have an output will be stored in My Workspace against the user account and can be downloaded directly from this screen. Currently, the Aged Debtors report, when run for multiple centres, will appear in My Workspace, with more background tasks to be added in future. 

Other Enhancements

• We have highlighted the “main” Census return row to reduce confusion for centres and to ensure only one census submission per centre is provided to the Ministry. Playcentres that are not open for the highlighted rows can use any other 2024 submission row once they are added.

Bug Fixes

• The printing issues from a recent Chrome update for enrolment forms, the Centre Funding for Child report, the Invalid Child Data report, the Centre Funding report and the Birthday Calendar have been resolved. 
• We’ve adjusted the javascript on the Staff Profile page to ensure any required Arrival Information or Leaving Destination information is correctly validating against the Start or Leaving Dates.
