We're introducing a Modern Interface Update in PPC Labs. This replaces the existing interface with a cleaner, more focused version of the app, designed to reduce visual clutter and make information easier to read, without changing how the system works. What This Is A full visual refresh of the system interface and branded emails. Cleaner layout with less visual noise More consistent spacing and hierarchy More intentional use of color to guide attention Easier scanning across schedules, visits, and profiles Dark Mode has also been improved and is more consistently dark than before Updated branded emails consistent with the new design using clear CTA buttons in place of text links The goal is to make the system feel less busy and easier to navigate throughout the day , especially during high-volume workflows. Why This Matters Feedback has consistently pointed to the interface feeling busy or harder to scan , especially when moving quickly between tasks. This update focuses on: Reducing cognitive load when reviewing information Making important details easier to identify at a glance Improving confidence when taking actions (especially around scheduling and billing) This is not about changing workflows, it's about making the existing ones clearer and easier to use consistently . What's Not Changing Core workflows (scheduling, billing, journals, etc.) Data, settings, and business logic Overall structure and navigation Most things remain in the same place. This is a visual replacement, not a functional redesign. How to Enable Admin → Business Settings → PPC Labs Turn Modern Interface Update On Takes effect immediately Can be turned off at any time Notes This update replaces the existing interface while enabled It is still being refined based on feedback If anything feels unclear or off, contact support

Keep team milestones front-and-center. The new Staff Celebrations panel on your dashboard shows every active staff member who has a birthday or hire-date anniversary coming up—so you never miss a chance to celebrate. How it works Instant visibility: The panel appears automatically on the administrator / manager dashboard—no setup required. Four time frames: See counts for Today, Tomorrow, This Week, This Month in separate columns. Clickable totals: Select any number to open a filtered list of the staff included. Data source: Pulls from each Staff Account's Birthday and Hire Date fields; deactivating an account removes it from the counts. Role-based access: Visible to anyone who can view Staff Accounts.

This is a personal setting for your own account. Others are not affected when you change it. To switch to Dark Mode select it from the User menu above the navigation (not available in the app) or on your Administrative > My Account page. Let me know if anything looks funny or is hard to read. Full app support (the top bar) will be added in the future.

Some items in the yellow in-system notifications box are now dismissible by using the "X" button to the right of the notification. A dismissed notification is only dismissed for your account so other managers would still see the notification until they dismissed it themselves. Sitters can dismiss non-essential notifications as well. Currently there are no notifications that clients can dismiss. Looking for feedback both on notifications which have not been made dismissible that you think should be and vice versa.

If you have any services where you want to limit the number of pets per day you can now be alerted when capacity has been reached. This is setup using the Operations > Services Settings > Time Blocks page. Edit the Time Block and set a Daily Pet Capacity either for “Overall” or “per Pet Sitter” When using the “Overall” choice the system will display the number of Openings available at the top of each day on the Master Schedule (you can use the “Show: Openings” checkbox at the top to show/hide these) in addition to an "Overbooked" notification once the limit of pets in that Time Block has been exceeded When using the “per Pet Sitter” choice the system will create an “Overbooked” notification once they have exceeded the limit of pets in that Time Block for any day (this is different from the typical Overbooked notifications that instead use the Expected Length of each visit compared to the total length of the Time Block)

We've added On-Page Filtering to make it faster to locate specific fields when editing long or complex forms. Just start typing in the filter box---rows that match your search will stay visible, and others will fade out. The filter checks both the names of fields (like labels and section headers) and the existing information inside form fields , so you can find what you're looking for with just a few keystrokes. How It Works Filter Input -- Located in the top-right corner when editing information (not when adding new information or when there are a small number of fields visible) Live Filtering -- Matches both visible text and current form field values as you type. Visual Indicator -- A blue alert appears when filtering is active, showing your search term and an "×" to clear it. Reset -- Click the "×" to remove the filter and show all fields again. Hidden Fields -- Filtering only affects rows that are currently visible. Pre-hidden fields remain hidden.
