Production Environment
* Any mobile or integration updates are subject to approval by the Apple App Store, Google Play Store, and/or the application that Betterworks is integrating with.
New
- 1:1s:
- Users can import recurring events that are outside of the currently accepted cadences (weekly, biweekly, triweekly, and monthly)
- Feedback:
- Super Admins can configure a scheduled feedback cycle's nomination period to 1 day (down from the previous minimum of 3 days)
Update
- 1:1s:
- If a user has connected their calendar to the 1:1s module, moving one instance of a recurring event to a different day/time will not prevent them from manually creating a 1:1 or prevent the Betterworks application from automatically creating a 1:1 based on the recurring event's original cadence
- For recurring events that are canceled in the Google Calendar using the "This and following events" option, the upcoming 1:1 will automatically be updated with a strikethrough
- Goals:
- When a goal is reassigned, the previous owner's role will be automatically updated to Editor instead of Participant
- Integrations:
- If progress locking is enabled, milestones that are connected to third-party applications (i.e. JIRA, Google Sheets, etc.) will stop syncing
- Administrators using the updated UKG Pro integration can sync the "hire date" field
