Tasks and new filter options
Dear customers,
Before you can schedule staff for your events, many things often need to be done. No matter if you create offers, rent additional material or provide a list of participants - the preparation is full of tasks that need to be done. With the new GigPlaner version, you now have the opportunity to record these tasks, assign them to your employees and track them.
In addition to this feature, we have also integrated many new views and possibilities in the new version, which is available to you as usual from tomorrow. So there are new filter options as well as a new planning view for the personnel assignments in larger projects with many sub-jobs.
I hope you enjoy reading this update info and wish you all the best

Whether for an event or in your own administration - there are a lot of tasks that have to be documented. With the new GigPlaner version, we offer you the opportunity to record these tasks in the system and assign them to individual persons.
New tasks can either be created via the menu item "Tasks" in the navigation or, if the task can be assigned to a project or an event, directly in an event via the "Tasks" tab. Each task receives a title and a description and can be commented. In this way, other employees can always understand what the current state of a topic is.
Of course, it is also possible to assign individual tasks to specific employees. To do this, simply select a responsible person within a task - this person will automatically be informed about the task by e-mail and will also see it in his login under the menu item "Tasks".
Nothing is more important than a quick and good overview. For example, the GigPlaner has a long list of calendar views, such as the availability overview. We have now extended this and other views with additional filter criteria so that you can get an even better picture of your personnel situation in the future.
In the availability view, you can now find a filter that allows you to filter employees by their categories (like in the request window in a job), certificates and languages. In this way, you can quickly and easily search for available employees with the properties just needed.
The statistics also got an extended filter that works like the filter in the calendar. It is possible to restrict the values in the statistics to jobs of a specific type or only to jobs that have already been billed. This gives you even more opportunities for analysis based on past events.
For large projects with many sub-jobs, there is now an additional planning view in the view of the sub-jobs in addition to the short record function. With this you have the opportunity to quickly and easily redistribute the already booked or requested employees and thus ensure the best possible utilization.
