Release highlights
To help you get the most out of this release, we've created a few highlight videos showcasing key updates and new features. 🎉
Quinyx web app Version 0203
Release date January 22nd, 2025
New functionality
Edit date on multiple shifts in the Schedule view
This new addition to our Quicker bulk actions in the Schedule view now allows you to quickly edit the date for multiple shifts at once. Selecting multiple shifts, now you can update their dates simultaneously and confirm the changes in a single action. This will improve scheduling efficiency and reduce time spent on the planning process.

Manager comments on Shift booking requests
Similar to the previous release, we are now introducing a new feature that allows managers to add comments when handling Shift booking requests.
What’s New: Managers can now leave a comment in the Notifications panel of the Manager portal before approving or denying a Shift booking request. This feature enhances transparency by providing employees with clear explanations for manager decisions, particularly when a Shift booking is denied.
- The comment will be visible to employees in the Qmail they receive.
- Managers can also view these comments in the Shift booking audit logs for future reference.
Looking Ahead: In upcoming releases, we’ll expand this functionality to include Shift unassignment requests as well.


New functionality requiring configuration updates
Coming: Support for logging in to the mobile app with Company alias and EmployeeID
In the coming mobile version 3.42, planned for February, we've implemented support for a new login flow we call "Company alias" and “Employee ID.” This makes it possible for our customers who can't use our regular supported usernames to have their users use a Company alias that points them toward the right customer in our system and then log in with an internal employee ID that could be a badge number.
The login flow for customers that use company alias and employeeID is the following:
- Step 1: In the “username or company alias” field, the user provides a “global alias” with a unique tenant ID.
- Step 2: In the next step, the user provides the employee ID or username. This and the following pages can also show a logotype of the customer's choice as a part of the login flow.
- Step 3: The user chooses which provider to use (password or SSO).
- Step 4: The user provides a password and gets logged in.
Log in with Employee ID and Company alias
With the coming release we are expanding the login flow with two new options. Firstly we are introducing a Company alias that is a shorthand alias representing the tenant/account. This is set by Quinyx and you might reach out to us via a Support request to activate it.
You can use it in the url: like https://web.quinyx.com/CompanyAlias
Next step is to enter a user id (Login ID, Email or Employee ID)
The step after is to enter the password as usual and you are logged in as usual.
If any of the login details are wrong you will get a generic error message as usually (Due to security policies)
What is Employee ID?
Employee ID is the external name for badge number. If you as a customer wants your users to be able to use their internal employee number to login you can update the user information by storing the employee id in the Badge number field (20 Characters maximum).
Badge number/employee id is not unique across accounts/customers you need to state a Company alias via the url first to be able to log in.
Company Alias
A company alias is a shorthand identifier unique for the specific account in Quinyx. Quinyx sets it in the account/domain level in our Back office tool. It can be 50 characters long, and as it is used in the url, it should not contain any special characters.

Updates and performance improvements
Coming: mobile - restricting users from creating invalid absence requests in periods they don't have an active agreement
In the coming mobile version 3.42, planned for February, we are updating the absence request function in the mobile apps. With this update, if you as a user don’t have a valid agreement during the dates you try to create an absence, no absence reasons should be visible, and the user can't send an absence request. The absence request process and what absence reasons you can select are controlled by whether you have an active agreement during the dates you apply for absence. If you have an agreement template connected to your agreement, only the absence types allowed for you in the template will be visible. With this new restriction, we've changed the order of the fields in the request a new absence page so that the users choose the from and to date (and time) first so that we can decide if there is an active agreement during that time period.
Bug fixes
- Resolved an issue with the absence handling logic for the following payroll files:
Visma Lønn KST kampanj,
Visma Lønn KST avdeling,
Visma Lønn postfix KST avdeling,
Visma Lønn KST avdeling Tag.
This means that Unapproved absences or absence requests will no longer be included in the output files. Only approved absences will be reflected in the payroll data (as should’ve been the case). This correction ensures accurate data in payroll file outputs, removing any potential confusion caused by unapproved or pending absences. We recommend reviewing your internal processes to align with this updated logic. If you need any further assistance, contact our support team.

Frontline Portal Version 0203
Release date January 22nd, 2025
New functionality
Hide engagement statistics for stories (AIO only)
It is now possible to hide engagement statistics for stories, preventing users from seeing which of their colleagues have completed/viewed a story and how often.
Toggle on the new Hide engagement statistics setting under Account settings > Frontline Portal settings.
Engagement statistics are hidden to a lesser/greater extent depending on a user’s FLP role permissions, found under Account settings > Access rights > Role management.
Manager users i.e. with the Distribute FLP role management permission:
- Audience field visible.
- View engagement stats button hidden.
- Readership and engagement audience breakdown hidden.
- Readership and engagement running total visible e.g. Unique opens: 1 Total opens: 1.
Employee users i.e. without the 'Distribute’ FLP role management permission:
- Audience field hidden.
- View engagement stats button hidden.
- Readership and engagement audience breakdown hidden.
- Readership and engagement running total hidden.
Reconnect subfolders
In the last release we introduced a new icon to flag when a folder is no longer sharing its audience with all subfolders. The icon is displayed on the parent folder card and, when hovered over, reads Audience not shared to all subfolders.


In this release, we introduced the ability to reshare the audience of a parent folder to all subfolders. This will enable you to reconnect subfolders that have been shared with custom audiences, bringing them back in line with the parent folder.
Click the Reconnect subfolders button.

You will be prompted to confirm your selection by clicking Confirm.
