New filters for comment sentiment and comment tags on the Communications page for companies that use the AI Impact Module.

The Communication page can now also be exported with a custom data set through filtering.

Subteams can have multiple parent teams.

Added a manager toggle in Settings for companies to choose if they want to allow employees to see the teams filter on the Kudos feed page or not.

A new Summary page has been added to the AI Impact Module report, where you can see the overall current state of the AI impact in your team: AI Pulse, your strongest and weakest categories and dimensions, metric scores, and a summary of usage and demographic statistics. This page can be exported as an Excel file.

Kudos Analytics gives you a way to see which teams, employees, specific cards, card categories, or subcategories get exchanged the most. You can select a specific time period to spot trends and see if certain team activities impacted the exchange of Kudos Cards, and switch between Card View, Team View, Employee View, or Kudos Feed view to see details of each exchanged card.

Besides this, Kudos Analytics provides you with an overview of gaps by team or individual employees, so you can see which categories you need to work on with each. 

Additionally, the Kudos Cards library got enriched with 100 new Kudos Cards.

• Pinboard claim for Editor role – Portal users with the Editor role can post Pins and target them to specific employees or teams.

Employee export

If there has been no new activity, or if all new activity has been marked as read, replied to, or resolved within the last 24 hours, nothing will be sent. Additionally, the update only includes information about new activity from the past 24 hours and does not sum up with previous interactions reported the day before. The update, delivered via preferred channel (Email, SMS or Slack), provides a combined total of all interactions, including new pulse check comments, direct messages, and replies to existing threads, along with a link to the Communication module page.

Throughout the application, when using the restricted manager role and no team is selected, the component should display “My Teams” instead of the company name. Calculations will be adjusted as needed to ensure data is displayed exclusively for the teams assigned to the restricted manager.

Deactivated employees are automatically removed from all teams, with their leave date recorded. If reactivated, they are assigned the status “Without team.” Previous team memberships are displayed in the “Inactive” tab of the employee’s profile. After reactivation, the Portal User must manually assign the employee to a team.

An “Edit” button has been added to the Status tab of the Edit Employee dialog. Clicking it opens a Deactivation Reason dialog, enabling users to update the deactivation reason.
