Improved Primary & Other Address Management

Users can now easily switch an address between Primary and Other using the Edit option in the three-dot menu. When a new Primary Address is selected and confirmed, the Previous Primary Address will automatically be reassigned as an Other address.

This update improves flexibility for Participants who may move between addresses or regularly alternate accommodation arrangements.

Who This Supports
This enhancement is particularly beneficial for Participants who switch between residences on a recurring basis, including:

  • Guardianship arrangements

  • Shared custody scenarios

  • Temporary or short-term placements

Impact

  • Reduces administrative effort when updating frequent address changes

  • Ensures address records remain accurate and clearly identified

  • Minimises confusion about which address is currently Primary

  • Supports compliance and accurate communication records

This update streamlines address management while better reflecting real-world accommodation arrangements for Participants.

For more information, visit the Profile guide.

Other Improvements

  • Undo Clock-In for Faster Corrections

  • Managing Assistance with Self-Care & SIL Supports in Astalty

  • Smarter Browser Tab Titles

Improved Support Note Visibility Settings

We’ve enhanced Support Note visibility settings to give organisations greater control over how historical Support Notes are shared, helping Support Workers feel more prepared and informed before heading into a shift.

By allowing appropriate access to previous Support Notes, Support Workers can better understand recent updates, preferences, and important context for their assigned Participants — reducing surprises and supporting more consistent, confident care.

Support Worker visibility options include:

  • Disabled — Support Workers will not be able to view any Support Notes for their Participants that were created by other Support Workers.

  • Show All — Support Workers will be able to view all Support Notes for their Participants from all Support Workers, providing full historical context.

  • Show for Time Range — Support Workers will be able to view Support Notes for their Participants from all Support Workers within the defined History Limit (set in days). This allows organisations to tailor how much historical information is shared, based on what best suits their operational preferences.

In addition, organisations can now control Note Visibility for Team Members. Team Members may include roles such as Support Coordinators or other administrative or clinical staff who may find it useful to review Support Notes for oversight, planning, or continuity purposes.

Team Member visibility options include:

  • Visible

  • Hidden

No history limits apply to Team Member visibility settings.

These updates are designed to support better communication, improved preparedness, and stronger continuity of care across your team.

For more information, visit the Scheduling Settings guide.

  • Greater Control over Risks PDF Export

  • Improved Alert Management Workflow

  • Enhanced Invoice Summaries for Clearer Cash Flow Insights

Managing Calendar Events on behalf of other Users

We’ve added a new permission in Astalty that makes it easier for Admin users to manage calendar events on behalf of other users.

By default, the optional Admin permission for Can manage calendar events on behalf of other users, is already enabled for the Account Owner. For all other Admin users, it’s turned off initially but can be enabled if needed. This permission isn’t available to Managers or Team Members.

Once an Admin has this permission enabled, they’ll be able to create, update, and delete calendar events for other users. This is especially helpful when assisting with scheduling, managing coverage, or making changes on someone else’s behalf.

When creating or editing a calendar event, an Event Owner field will appear. This allows the Admin to choose which user the event belongs to. If the user doesn’t have this permission, they won’t see the Event Owner field at all and will only be able to manage their own events.

To enable this for an Admin, the Account Owner can do so by selecting the Admin user within Users, navigating to and editing their Permissions to enable Can manage calendar events on behalf of other users.

This update gives Admins more flexibility to help manage calendars across the team, while still keeping clear boundaries around who can do what. If you have any questions or need help setting this up, feel free to reach out.

For more information, visit the Calendar Events and Tasks guide.

Managing referrals just got a whole lot easier.

You can now add referrals to a dedicated waitlist, giving you a simple way to keep track of potential participants when you don’t have capacity right now.

In just a couple of clicks you can now add Referrals to the Waitlist. This lets you safely park the referral and come back to it later when your capacity opens up - no more losing track or juggling reminders. While your referral is in the Under Review status, select Update Status and choose Add to Waitlist... It's that easy.

And as soon as you’re ready to take someone on, head to the Waitlist, open the referral, and update its Status to Accept or Decline. It’s a flexible, stress-free way to manage demand while staying organised and ready for what’s next.

  1. This referral will now appear in the Waitlist for future action

Completing Forms in the App

You asked, we delivered! You can now make Forms available for Support Workers to complete directly within the Astalty app, helping ensure important information is captured during supports.

When creating or editing a Form, you can enable Allow Support Workers to complete this Form on any Supports within the Astalty app. Once turned on, the Form will appear on every support for every Participant, making it easy for Support Workers to access and complete when needed.

If a Form is only relevant to a specific Participant, such as an individual ABC report, you can instead assign the Form directly to that Participant from their profile. This ensures Support Workers only see and complete Forms that are relevant to the Participant they are supporting.

Other improvements

  • Associate a Form to a Specific Participant

  • Updating Addresses Used in Scheduled Supports

  • Email a Participant’s Support Schedule

  • Support Worker Compatibility - Preferred Teams

Archiving Goals

We’ve introduced the ability to Archive Goals to help users keep their goal lists focused and clutter-free. Many of our customers may be tracking multiple years' worth of goals per participant, which can easily lead to long lists of goals. This function can only be actioned if the goal doesn't sit within a current Associated Plan and can be accessed via the Edit Participant Goal page. Being able to archive any goal now that’s no longer active or relevant, will result in smoother workflows for anyone managing the goals and utilising them in Tasks.

Example of a Goal which is associate to a current plan - Only goals from past plans can be archived.

When viewing the Participant's goals, you can toggle between viewing Active, Archived, and all goals by using the Archived Filter.

The example below shows the Archived filter showing both Active and Archived goals.

MFA Enforcement by Role

Astalty now gives Account Owners greater control over account security with the ability to enforce Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) across all users, or only for users with specific roles.

This update allows Account Owners to choose which user roles must have 2FA enabled. Once enforcement is activated, all users assigned to the selected roles will be required to set up 2FA before accessing their account. This provides more flexible, targeted protection while ensuring critical roles follow stronger security practices.

For more details on configuring and managing 2FA enforcement, check out our helpful guide.

NDIS Number Exempt Participants

A new exemption option has been introduced for non-NDIS Participants who therefore do not have an NDIS number.

Previously, strict validation on the NDIS Number field was required to minimise the issues during invoicing. This prevented providers from invoicing or updating records for exempt participants.

With this update, users can now mark a participant as “NDIS Number Exempt.”
When enabled:

  • The participant can be saved without an NDIS number.

  • The invoicing process bypasses NDIS number validation for that participant.

  • Invoices can be generated and processed without interruption.

This enhancement supports accurate record-keeping and ensures invoicing flows smoothly for participants completely outside the NDIS framework.

Other Improvements

  • Support and User Guide buttons

  • Password Visibility & Validation

  • App Notifications

  • Contractor Bank Details

  • Invoice Export Tasks & Notes

  • Participants Export

Add Involvees to Incidents

You can now assign multiple Involvees to any incident. Whether they are Team Members, Participants, or Someone Else, this enhancement makes it easier to capture everyone involved—improving the accuracy, clarity, and completeness of your incident records.

Additionally, you can now hover your cursor over any listed Involvee to quickly view their full name and contact type, giving you instant context without needing to open any additional details.

Other Improvements

  • Participants Filter

  • Privacy Policy Update
