We’re excited to introduce the new Global Dashboard - a major upgrade designed to give your organization greater visibility, stronger control and a more centralized way to manage operations across all locations.

The Global Dashboard brings all key data into one place, helping managers and head office teams make faster, more informed decisions.

To help you get familiar with everything that’s new, we recommend watching the short video introduction we’ve prepared. It provides a guided overview of the dashboard’s layout, features, and navigation.

Global Banner - Enhanced branding & personalization

Attention Items - Centralized priorities in one place

• Actions due or overdue
• Communications requiring responses
• Incident reports needing follow-up
• Other high-priority alerts

Campaigns - Promote key business initiatives

Quick Links - Faster access to what you need

Quick Links let you pin essential tools and resources for one-click access. You can link to both internal Operandio areas and external services like HR, payroll, rostering tools, policy documents, or internal portals.

Recent Activity - Real-time operational visibility

The Recent Activity panel shows a live feed of staff actions across your business, such as completed tasks, audit submissions and training updates. This section offers a real-time snapshot of what is happening on the ground.

People - Highlight key contacts

Content Blocks - Flexible communication

• Videos
• Images
• Text

Communications Module - Stay connected across locations

For You - Personal progress overview

The global dashboard will be rolling out soon

While we’re gearing up for some major releases arriving very soon (👀 stay tuned!), this week’s update brings several powerful improvements across actions, reporting, locations and training content.

Here’s what’s new:

📍 Location Manager - Now in the Main Navigation

The Location Manager has moved into the left hand navigation and now supports richer location details. You can store contact information, opening hours and important documents such as contracts, agreements or lease files, all in one central place.

This is ideal for multi-site operators and franchise networks, and paves the way for part of a wider update arriving very soon.

🧠 Enhancements to Conditional Logic

Conditional Logic has always been part of Operandio, but we’ve made a few small improvements to how it works and wanted to give you a quick refresher on what’s possible.

You can use Conditional Logic to show or hide actions, notes or steps based on how a user responds during a check. For example, if an issue is reported, an action can appear automatically. If everything looks good, you can keep things simple by displaying only the relevant notes or steps.

These refinements help keep workflows clean and ensure your team only sees what they need at the right time.

🚩 New Status: Deferred Actions

We’ve added a new Deferred status to help teams better manage actions that can’t be completed immediately.

What are Deferred actions?
Deferred means the action is still outstanding but has been put on hold indefinitely to be resolved at a later date. It's a good way to separate out current Unresolved actions from older ones that might still be sticking around. You might find yourself using the Deferred status if you have actions that are:

• Waiting on external approval
• Waiting until a specific time or date to be resolved

It removes the action from your active work without losing visibility or having to keep it marked as Unresolved. Deferred actions appear in the Existing Actions section of PDF reports, giving managers clearer oversight of all outstanding items without including every open status such as Blocked or In Progress.

🏷️ Labels Reporting & Pinning

The new Label Report is now live in the Reports area, giving you clear visibility into label usage across your organisation. You can filter by date range and location to see exactly how many labels each location is printing; perfect for compliance, auditing, and understanding operational activity at a glance.

Within the Labels section of the platform, you can also pin key labels so they’re always right at your fingertips. You can do this from the overflow (3 dots) menu for labels in your account. This makes it easier for teams to access frequently used labels without searching, helping streamline daily printing and reduce time spent navigating the system. 

🎓 LMS Update - SCORM Support

Operandio now officially supports SCORM 1.2 and SCORM 2004 training packages.

You can upload your existing SCORM content directly into the platform and still take advantage of Operandio’s native training tools - including quizzes, scoring and full compliance tracking. This gives you the flexibility of SCORM with the simplicity of Operandio’s LMS.

🛠️ Other Fixes & Enhancements

We’ve rolled out several small performance improvements and bug fixes, along with more behind-the-scenes work as we prepare for multiple new releases before the end of the year.

P.s Did you spot the sneak peak of another major launch??  🤭

While we’re laying the groundwork for major new features (👀 stay tuned for big updates), this release brings a focused set of improvements to streamline your day-to-day use of Operandio.

Here’s what’s new:

🎯 Auto-Assign Training Courses

You can now automatically assign training courses and observations when users are added to a group or location — ideal for ensuring new team members are onboarded with the right training from day one.

Set this up in the Training Manager when assigning a course. You’ll see a new tab called “Automated Assignment”, where you can select the location, area, and permission level of the employees who need to complete the course.

✨ Bonus: You can also set up recurring training assignments (e.g. every 6 months), so your team is regularly refreshed with the most up-to-date content — no manual follow-up required. As your course content evolves, so does your team's knowledge. One less thing to worry about!

📷 Uploads Reporting Tab

A new Uploads report is now available for users with Full Administrator permissions.

Available under the Reports section, the Uploads tab allows you to view, filter, and manage all photos and documents submitted through reports — making it easier than ever to keep track of uploaded media across your organisation.

🛠️ Other Fixes & Improvements

• Fixed: Observations were unable to be assigned to staff due to certain permission setups
• Fixed: Training reports were not accessible to some Regional Managers
• Fixed: @mentions formatting issues in Comms Hub posts and comments have now been addressed
• Fixed: We've fixed some of the crashes and performance issues reported in the Training Manager when editing certain modules, and are aiming to increase performance in this area even more in the coming weeks

We’re beyond excited to announce the launch of Training Observations - a brand-new feature in your Training Manager - alongside some other major improvements to the platform! These updates are designed to supercharge your team’s learning experience and streamline the way you organize and interact with information.

🎓 Introducing Training Observations: Bringing real-time learning to every shift

So, what exactly are Training Observations?

Observations are dynamic, real-time assessments conducted during shifts that capture on-the-job performance and behaviors. This is especially impactful for our customers in hospitality, health clubs, entertainment venues, and other hands-on industries, where day-to-day interactions and live service delivery are core to success.

Instead of relying solely on traditional training or end-of-course tests, Observations allow managers and supervisors to:

• Monitor employee performance in the moment — whether it’s a barista perfecting latte art, a fitness coach guiding clients, or event staff managing guest experiences.
• Provide instant, targeted feedback that helps your team improve continuously during their shifts.
• Boost engagement and accountability by making development a natural part of daily operations.

Think of Training Observations as giving you clear, actionable insights right where the work happens. Watch our quick video below to get an idea of how they work.

✨ New Enhancements

• Tables in Knowledge Base
  You can now add tables to your Knowledge Base articles for better formatting and clarity.
• @ Mentions & Internal Linking
  Mention team members and link to other Knowledge Base articles without opening a new tab — making collaboration smoother.
• Mobile Drawer Actions
  Actions in drawers now display properly on mobile, improving usability on the go.
• LMS Builder Preview Upgrades
  Enhanced preview experience in the LMS module and course builder for more accurate editing.

🛠️ Bug Fixes

• Delete Button for Training List
  Quickly remove items from training lists with the new delete option.
• Role Permission Modal Freeze Resolved
  Fixed an issue causing freezing after searches in the role permissions modal.
• Knowledge Base Category Deletion Fix
  Resolved errors when deleting KB categories.
• PDF Removal Control
  You can now remove a single PDF without affecting others.
• Step Name Save Fix
  Content blocks now correctly save step names after editing.
• Note Format Data Migration

This week’s release is a smaller but powerful update, but there’s a lot happening behind the scenes as we prepare for bigger features coming your way soon. In the meantime, we’ve rolled out a few key enhancements to improve your day-to-day experience in Operandio:

🔗 Assets: View Linked Jobs in the Asset Viewer

We’ve improved the way you track jobs tied to specific assets. While jobs could previously be linked to assets via selection steps, they weren’t visible within the asset itself - until now.

A new “Jobs” tab has been added to the Asset Viewer, allowing you to easily see which jobs have been linked to an asset. Each job in the list is clickable, so you can quickly access full job details without having to search elsewhere.

This makes it much easier to review work history, schedule upcoming tasks, and keep everything aligned across your equipment and locations. This is another step towards a full-form Asset Management system that will soon be coming to Operandio!

📱 Experience Improvements & Bug Fixes

🛠️ Actions Filters on Mobile: Improved filtering by location and area for smoother action management.

🏷️ Filter on Actions Linked to Assets: Easily find actions associated with specific assets.

✅ Training Status Filter in People View: Fixed issues filtering users by training status.

🧭 Left Navigation Overflow: Added scroll and overflow support for better navigation on long menus.

We’re continuing to make steady improvements, with major new capabilities in the pipeline. As always, your feedback helps shape the future of Operandio.

💬 Questions or suggestions? Reach us anytime at support@operandio.com

We’re excited to roll out this week’s updates - designed to streamline workflows, improve efficiency, and make your Operandio experience even smoother! Here’s what’s new:

📅 Location Opening Hours & Job Due Times
You can now set location-specific operating hours and adjust job due times based on your venue’s opening and closing times.

• Set Location Operating Hours: Easily configure your venue’s operating hours directly in the system.
• Due At Settings: Jobs can now be automatically set to be due a specific number of hours before or after your venue opens or closes. This ensures tasks are completed either before operations begin or after they end, automating your scheduling and reducing manual work.

This feature helps improve consistency and efficiency across locations, ensuring tasks align with operational hours.

Here is a quick video demonstrating the feature:

🔗 Early version of Work Orders now live: link actions to assets

Now, you can link actions directly to assets, with these linked actions visible both in the Assets Screen and Actions Screen. Use this update to raise work orders for equipment or assets that need maintenance, repairs or servicing. Linked actions appear in both the Assets and Actions screens, improving tracking and streamlining workflows. This is the first step towards a full-form Asset Management system that will soon be coming to Operandio!

🏷️ Add Images & Logos to Labels

Make your labels more visually appealing and easier to identify by adding images and logos! This feature is still in early testing, and we’d love for you to be part of it! Contact us to try out these new features and share your feedback.
