New Feature: Staff Management Upgrades

Managing your staff has never been easier with AREENA's latest updates, which streamline scheduling, enhance communication, and boost accountability for your league operations!

Whether you're scheduling referees, scorekeepers, or other essential staff, these new features are designed to save you time, improve organization, and enhance communication. Let's dive into what's new:

Effortless Staff Placement and Replacement

Placing staff for your games is now a breeze, thanks to simplified scheduling tools that let you assign, confirm, and adjust staff roles with just a few clicks. From the admin portal, you can easily:

• Add staff: Quickly assign staff members to open spots in your schedule.
• Book staff: Confirm their availability and secure their positions.
• Replace staff: Swap out staff members seamlessly when adjustments are needed.

These enhancements allow you to manage your staffing needs efficiently, ensuring every game runs smoothly.

Improved Staff Cancellation Controls

If you're using AREENA's digital assignor feature, you now have greater control over cancellations. We've introduced a new setting that allows you to:

• Enable a cancellation note requirement: This ensures that staff communicate their reasons for canceling directly, improving accountability and keeping league organizers informed about any changes or challenges. Staff members attempting to cancel their assignment will receive a popup instructing them to contact you directly before proceeding.
• Disable cancellations entirely: Customize your league's settings to prevent cancellations within the app, ensuring accountability and minimizing last-minute disruptions.

These tools give you peace of mind by reinforcing communication and maintaining reliability among your staff.

Comprehensive Staff Reports

Keeping track of your staff has never been more straightforward. With the ability to download CSV reports, you can now access detailed information about your team, including:

• Contact information
• Assigned roles
• Scheduling details

These reports make it easy to stay organized and prepared, whether you're analyzing staff performance to identify strengths and gaps, planning for playoffs to ensure optimal coverage, or even tracking staffing trends over the course of a season.

Why These Updates Matter

Running a league means juggling countless moving parts, and staffing is one of the most critical components. These upgrades to AREENA’s platform are designed to:

• Save Time: Streamlined processes for booking, replacing, and managing staff free up your schedule. For example, using the bulk assignment tool can cut your scheduling time in half, giving you more time to focus on the game itself.
• Boost Accountability: New cancellation controls reinforce responsibility and improve communication. For instance, requiring a cancellation note helps you understand the challenges your staff faces and plan accordingly.
• Enhance Organization: Detailed reports keep all your staff information at your fingertips. For example, you can use these reports to analyze peak staffing needs and ensure coverage during busy seasons.

With these improvements, we’re making it easier than ever for league organizers to manage their staff with confidence.

From scheduling weeks in advance to ensuring last-minute changes are handled smoothly, AREENA’s platform has you covered.
