Zipwire Releases Assigned Activities
01 Jul 2023
01 Jul 2023 by Luke Puplett - Founder

We're excited to announce a new feature that makes time tracking and onboarding workers easier than ever - Assigned Activities! This feature allows managers to pre-assign activities directly to workers.
Now when your team starts tracking time in the Zipwire journal, their assigned activities will automatically appear, ready for them to log time against. Zipwire’s activities have a flexible three-part naming convention allowing it to convey project IDs, cost-center numbers, shift times and so on. Assigned Activities lets the agency or workplace control these names.

Assigned Activities simplifies time tracking by:
-
Pre-populating activities so users don't have to create their own
-
Linking activities directly to the correct workflow so sending timesheets is seamless
-
Reducing data entry errors by filling in key details upfront
-
Providing clarity on what activities each user should log time against

Administrators can quickly enter new activity names and push them out to individuals in just a few clicks. And users can still add their own activities if needed.
Assigned Activities joins Zipwire's suite of features that make time tracking and timesheet management a breeze. With powerful reporting, WhatsApp approvals, and more, Zipwire takes the pain out of managing contract and part-time staff.
Give Assigned Activities a try and let us know what you think. We're constantly improving Zipwire based on feedback from customers like you. Want to request a new feature or share ways we can better meet your team's needs? Drop us a note at suggest@zipwire.io.
