Announcements and the Dashboard cards
Post short team news to everyone or to some departments or locations, and see who's out, celebrations and your tasks on the Dashboard.
Post an announcement
An announcement is short news for your team: a meeting, a new policy, a holiday reminder. It shows on everyone's Dashboard and Me page, and can also go out by email.
- Go to Team → More → Announcements.
- Type the Title (1) and the Message (2).
- Choose who it's For (3): Everyone, Chosen departments or Chosen locations (then tick them).
- Choose Show until (4) if it should disappear after a date.
- Tick Also email it to them (5) to email it as well. Only the chosen people are emailed.
- Click Post.
Posted announcements are listed below the form. Click Delete to take one down.
The Dashboard cards
Team adds cards to the Dashboard. Each person sees only what they're allowed to:
| Card | Shows |
|---|---|
| Who's out | Who's out today and this week |
| Celebrations | Birthdays (only for people who show theirs), work anniversaries and new hires this week |
| My tasks | Your onboarding and offboarding tasks |
| My time off | Your balances and your next time off |
| Announcements | Team news for you |
Arrange or hide cards with Customize dashboard. See Use the Dashboard.
