What’s New

📢 Changes to Enrolment records based on Licensing Criteria updates effective 20th April 2026

Following the licensing criteria changes introduced by the Ministry on 20 April, we are pleased to confirm that all required enrolment changes are now live in Juniorlogs.

These changes have been applied across:

  • Online Enrolment Forms
  • Printed Enrolment Forms
  • Child Records

What’s Changed

💊 Medicine Categories Simplified

  • A single Medicine tab is now available within:
    – Child Record
    – Enrolment Form
  • Medicine Categories 1 & 2 have now been archived

👉 Want to check what you’d saved earlier within older setup? You can re-enable it temporarily:

Settings → Edit Centre → Enquiry & Enrolment → Old Medicine Categories

Updated sections that no longer need a ♦️ alongside them:

  • Parents/Guardians
  • Custodial Statement
  • Additional Emergency Contacts
  • Child’s Doctor
  • Medicines
  • Service Declaration

🗓️ Roster Improvements

We’ve made several enhancements to the roster to make scheduling more flexible and intuitive:

📅 Copy Rosters Over Public Holidays

  • Previously, rosters could not be copied over public holidays
  • This limitation has now been removed — you can copy rosters across any day, including public holidays

🔄 Swap Staff Hours Easily

  • A new “Swap With” option is now available on the roster
  • If two staff members are rostered and you want to switch their hours:
    – Right-click on a rostered staff member’s name
    – Select “Swap With”
    – Choose the staff member to swap with

📊 Smarter Roster Visibility

The roster is now more intuitive and informative than ever:

  • In addition to viewing required staff numbers for each timeslot
  • Now, you can see how many staff are actually rostered
  • Clear breakdown of:
    – Certified staff
    – Non-certified staff
  • Instantly know if you are:
    – Understaffed
    – Fully staffed
    – Overstaffed

💼 Payroll Report Export – Now Available

Juniorlogs now supports generating payroll reports compatible with:

  • iPayroll
  • Smartly

In order to access:

Reports → Payroll Report → Click on CSV → Export the desired payroll file

💰 New Report – Payments Report

We’ve introduced a new Payments Report to give you better visibility of all recorded payments.

  • View all payments within a custom date range
  • Automatically grouped by payment type, such as:
    – Bank Payments
    – Xero Payments
    – Cash
    – WINZ
  • Expand each payment type to see individual transactions recorded under it

📝 Notes Report Enhancement

The Notes Report has been enhanced to give you deeper insights from your child records.

In addition to fetching notes saved within a child record, the report can now also include data from the following fields:

  • How did you find about us?
  • Previous ECE experience
  • Misc. Comments
  • Additional Information
