Product & Feature Updates: January 2018
Happy New Year! We’re ringing in 2018 with brand new product and feature updates.
If you're a current client, these enhancements may affect your account. Check out the highlights below, and be sure to visit our Support Page, which details each new release and provides step-by-step instructions on how to use them.
Please check in with all appropriate members of your team to ensure you're implementing the updates that will best serve your business.
With the use of data and technology trending up, we wanted to provide our clients with an extra level of security in the new year.
Effective Monday, January 15, we're adding an extra level of security to the login process through a captcha. A captcha is a program or system intended to distinguish human input from machine input, typically as a way of thwarting spam and automated extraction of data from websites.
The captcha will be prompted after 3 failed logins or when suspicious activity is detected.
This technology, powered by Google, requires that the google.com domain be whitelisted (if you’re concerned about this, please contact your IT department).

Have you ever had an employee report in to work for a shift, only to determine they’re not needed and have to be sent home? Hey, it happens - and this new tool allows employers to easily manage this process by automatically calculating pay that employees are entitled to for being sent home before the conclusion of their scheduled shift.
We’ve built this so employers can easily select their preferred rule for the Reporting Time based on the state rule their brand is based in, where it only applies for scheduled shifts.

Employee Pooling
As labor costs become less flexible, we're here to help. Employee Pooling* is a new feature that assists in streamlining multi-unit scheduling as well as time and attendance.
Employees of multi-unit groups can clock into Harri’s TeamHub app at ANY location within the group. Their wage costs will be recorded at the unit they've clocked into, regardless of whether it's their home location. Overtime & spread-of-hours calculations are accurately calculated on a cross-location basis.
This smart and flexible technology especially helps multi-unit operators manage their employees more effectively, maximize productivity, and lower labor costs.
*This feature can be easily activated upon request by a Customer Success Manager.
