What you see on the dashboard
The home screen shows four summary squares at the top:- Unread broadcasts (or This week if your role hides unread counts): how much is waiting in your feed, or how many shifts and events are coming up.
- Pending approvals: a single count for everything that needs your sign-off, including broadcast drafts, new member access, leave and rota requests, hiring reviews, and HR compliance items such as right-to-work checks, ID document expiry, and open fit-note cases.
- Tasks pending: open tasks assigned to you in the Tasks workspace, including shared multi-assignee tasks.
- Custom tile: a metric you choose yourself. Use the customise control on the tile to track department headcount, hiring requests, the next 1:1 meeting, active onboardings, and more.
Navigation from the dashboard
Use the sidebar to move into product areas such as Broadcasts, Rota, Calendar, HR, Finance, and Admin. The sidebar is filtered by your role: if you cannot see a section, your role does not include access to it. The top bar gives you quick access to:- Notifications bell for unread alerts across leave, hiring, onboarding, and other domains.
- Command palette (keyboard shortcut) to jump to pages, approvals, and notification lists.
- Profile menu for settings, quiet hours, and sign-out.
Page guidance
Many pages include a small info control that explains what the page is for and where related settings live. Use it when you are unsure whether you are in the right place.Tips
- Pin or complete your profile early so HR and payroll records stay accurate.
- If you expect to see a tile or menu item that is missing, check roles and permissions or ask your Super Admin to review your role assignment.
