To make seat selection clearer and reduce confusion, default and existing bookings are now fully visible in the Guest Booking Floorplan. Users no longer need to guess which seats are available—occupied seats are clearly marked so they can choose a free spot easily.

We’ve added a new indicator to the calendar to make it easier to see when a check-in occurred on a specific day:

• Check-In Detection
  The calendar now displays an indicator whenever a check-in—manual or presence-based—has been recorded for that day.
• Timestamp Visibility
  Hovering or clicking on the day in the calendar will show the exact timestamp of the check-in.

PULT’s dashboard navigation and structure have been radically redesigned with a cleaner, modern look and a more logical, user-friendly layout.

• Redesigned primary and secondary navigation bars for clearer orientation and quicker access to key sections.
• More intuitive menu grouping, ensuring related tools and pages are organised together in a logical flow.
• Improved labeling to reduce guesswork and help users understand where they are at all times.
• Consistent navigation placement across all pages so users don’t need to relearn layouts when moving through the dashboard.

For detailed guidance on navigating the updated dashboard and making the most of its new structure, visit our Help Center. Here you’ll find step-by-step instructions, tips, and screenshots to help you get familiar with the changes.

We’ve introduced several new features to the Presence Average Attendance graph to improve usability and ensure data is shown appropriately based on permissions:

1. Custom Timeframes
   Users can now select custom timeframes for viewing average attendance.
2. Team Average Attendance Display
   When filtering by team, the graph now shows the team’s average attendance for better group-level insights.
3. Permission-Based Employee Visibility
   If permissions restrict access to individual employee data, the graph will automatically hide individual average attendance and display only the team average.
4. Location Filter Added
   You can now filter the graph by location, allowing clearer comparison across different sites.

Users can now set “Absent” as a default option for specific weekdays in their personal settings.
This is especially helpful for team members who work a 4-day week or have part-time schedules.

Why this matters:
Previously, many users marked their non-working days as “Time off”, which wasn’t accurate and created inconsistencies with HR systems. With this update, users can now correctly mark non-working days without affecting vacation or leave tracking.

This improvement ensures cleaner data, fewer HR adjustments, and a more accurate reflection of each person’s work schedule.

You can now connect a TV in your office to display live seating information for everyone—perfect for entrances, lobbies, or team areas.

Auto-Refresh Mode:
The Pult web app now supports an easy auto-refresh feature that you can enable directly through the URL.

To activate it, simply add a refresh interval (in seconds) to this Pult URL:
https://app.pult.com/?refreshInterval=10
Replace 10 with any number of seconds you prefer. The page will then automatically refresh at that interval—ideal for continuously updated TV displays.

Smart Date Updates:
The selected date in the web app will now automatically adjust when:

• The day changes (e.g., at midnight)
• Your system date changes

This ensures your TV display and browser views always stay accurate and up-to-date.

You can now configure default workplace selections based on teams in Pult. This update is especially useful for organisations with diverse user groups where not everyone should have access to the same default workplace options.

What’s new:

• Admins can assign team-specific default workplaces, ensuring users only see the options relevant to them.
• Functionality works similarly to desk policies, providing a familiar setup flow.
• Improved control and clarity for teams with different workspace entitlements.

This enhancement helps organisations streamline workplace management, reduce confusion for users, and maintain better access control across teams.

We’ve improved kiosk email notifications to properly display date and time in your organisation’s timezone.
What’s changed:

• Previously, all timestamps were shown in UTC, which could cause confusion for teams in different timezones.
• Email templates for kiosk check-ins are now timezone-aware, reflecting your organisation’s local time.

This update ensures that all kiosk-related notifications are clear, accurate, and aligned with your local time, reducing misunderstandings and improving usability.

We’ve enhanced the integration between Factorial and PULT to support a wider range of absence categories.

What’s new:

• Absence types can now sync as Remote or Business Trip in addition to the existing Vacation and Sick Day categories.
• More accurate mapping of employee location across systems.

This update ensures smoother workforce management and more complete absence tracking across your Factorial and PULT environments.

We’ve enhanced the Usage Details graph to provide clearer insight into where live Presence data is coming from.
Users can now immediately see whether Presence information is being sourced from the installed PULT Agent or from Wi-Fi–based detection.

What’s improved:

• Added a visible indicator of the active Presence data source
• Improved transparency for troubleshooting and device validation
• More accurate usage insights thanks to clearer data provenance

This update helps ensure users always know how Presence is being detected—bringing more clarity and confidence to your device data.

We’ve introduced improvements to Device Authentication, offering an additional option for validating Presence data.
The PULT Agent can now be installed directly on company laptops, allowing Presence to be tracked securely through the device itself.

💡 Why this matters

Performing this verification step helps you identify unauthorised devices, detect anomalies, and reduce potential security risks.

🚨 Security Notice

Please note that certain device details — including operating system, username, serial number, and location — can be spoofed and should not be fully relied upon.
Only the IP address is considered a reliable indicator.

Before approving any device authentication request, always verify:

• The request time
• The IP address
• That both match expected patterns and devices within your organisation
  

Team Leads now have limited access to the Presence Dashboard, focused exclusively on their own team.

What’s included in this limited view:

• See which team members are currently in the office according to Presence data.
• View Average office days / week for each team member.

This update allows Team Leads to view team presence and daily office activity without accessing information for other teams, providing a clear and focused overview of their own team’s presence data.
