1. Auto Lost Time Calculation & CSV Export Feature
We have introduced the ability to Auto Calculate – Lost Time Days on an Incident where an Incident is flagged as “Is
this a Lost Time Incident” = Yes.
a) How to setup Auto Lost Time via My Company Settings
We appreciate some customers are happy to use functionality as designed today. To switch this feature on for your
company, you can navigate to Settings > My Company Settings and click Edit.
Note: You can configure the working pattern within your business. For most it will be 7 days, but if for example you
only want Monday to Saturday, you would click onto “Sun” for Sunday, and it will turn grey.
How to manage Auto Lost Time on an Incident
Once you have flagged an Incident as “Is this a Lost Time Incident” to Yes, you are now able to enter up to three
different date ranges and Notify will automatically calculate the “No. of Days” lost per date range and a “Total
Calculated Lost Days” value.
Note: If you do not know when the person is returning to work, you can select the “Last day unknown” checkbox and
Notify will automatically update the Total Calculated Lost Days value as each working day moves on.
The View Incident Details screen will include all the details referring to the Auto Calculated values:
b) How to Export LT/Reportable to CSV
We have added a handy new Export LTI / Reportable to CSV from the Export button on the Incident List Summary screen.
Note: The Incident Export to CSV feature has also been updated to include the three dates ranges.
You can specify the date ranges you want to export data for (note: if no dates are entered on the Incident List
Summary screen these will default to the prior month, but you can override these). You also have the flexibility to
choose whether you want just Lost Time and or Reportable incidents, as well any overlapping Incidents that were
reported before the current date range but include lost dates that fall into the required date range.
Once Export is clicked, we will provide a single CSV file that will return the Incident data based on the filters
previously set.
We will include in this extract the full number of lost working days, as well as a pro-rated lost days based on the
number of days lost between the Report State Date and Report End Date filters specified at point of export.
2. Security Enhancement – Account Lockout
Notify Account Lockout
We have enhanced Notify to protect against brute force attacks or someone attempting to hack into and take over your
account, by adding a new account lockout feature.
If somebody maliciously tries to gain access your account, after 5 attempts of an invalid combination of username
and password, we will lock your user account.
You can click the “Unlock your account?” link on the login screen
You will then be prompted to enter your Notify accounts email address.
Notify will then send the registered email address and 6-digit code.
You will have 180 seconds (3 minutes) to enter the code, or you can click Resend Code link to generate a new random
6-digit code.
Once you have successfully entered the correct 6-digit code, your account will become unlocked, and you will be
returned to the Notify screen and can attempt to login again.
3. French Language Support – Actions
In addition to Dutch, German, Spanish, Mongolian and Russian, we are pleased to announce we now support French for
our Incident, Audits Modules
Note: Actions and our Notify IM and Notify AI app will be available on our v6.3 Release at the end of March
2023).
French Language Support on Mobile Apps
In addition to Dutch, German, Spanish, Mongolian and Russian, we are pleased to announce French language (IOS and
Android) for both our capturing Incidents with Notify IM and managing Audits, Inspections and Checklists via our
Notify AI apps.
4. Security & Penetration Testing
It is not all about delivering new features, at Notify we take the security of our customer data as our number one
priority.
Annually we invest in third party CREST Accredited Security experts to undertake Penetration Testing, designed to
seek out security vulnerabilities and weaknesses with our commitment to remediate and remove these.
We also regularly assess our Notify Web and Mobile applications against the Top 10 OWASP vulnerabilities on a
quarterly basis.
5. Performance Improvements, Scalability and Load Testing
As Notify grows and we take on more customers and users around the world, we want to ensure the performance and
scalability of our Web and Mobile applications are not only fit for purpose now, but also into the future.
We have invested significantly in third party experts conducting Load Testing to replicate high demands on our
software and infrastructure, which will help Notify to identify where we need to make improvements.
6. Technical Debt
At Notify we call this ‘keeping our lights on!!’. This is about good housekeeping to ensure the infrastructure,
code, third party components and the plumbing is maintained, secure and in good working order.
Our team takes great pride in the fact that our software has assisted more than 250,000 individuals including
workers, contractors, and visitors across the globe in promoting safety. As Notify has become the go-to platform for
companies to report incidents related to safety, environmental concerns, and governance, we have been tirelessly
working to ensure that our products cater to your specific requirements and deliver a positive user experience.
