Exclude Off-Site Employees from OnEvac Completion Percentage

Description: 06718300
When creating an OnEvac event in the EVAC mobile app and selecting “On-site employees only” for SMS Verification, off-site employees are still included in the completion calculation. This causes reports to display incomplete or misleading percentages, even when all onsite employees and zones are verified.

Problem to Solve:
Currently, the only workaround is to manually verify off-site employees to reach 100 percent. For sites with multiple shifts and large employee numbers, this process is time-consuming and impractical during real emergencies. Customers need an automatic way to exclude off-site employees from the completion status so the percentage reflects only those physically onsite.

Replication Steps:

Created OnEvac event in EVAC mobile.

Selected “All Zones” → off-site employees included in the event.

Selected “SMS Verify” → chose “Onsite Employees Only” or manually verified.

Completion percentage still included off-site employees.

Impact:
This affects both the OnEvac mobile app and OnEvac reporting. The displayed percentages are misleading and reduce reliability during drills and real events where accurate information is critical.

Proposed Enhancement:
Implement an automatic filter so off-site employees are excluded from the completion calculation by default during OnEvac events.

Thanks for your suggestion,

The reason we notify all employees of an evacuation rather than just those marked 'on-site' is because often there is not perfect compliance - an employee may have forgotten to sign-in, or have signed-out but but not yet left the premises. However we agree that counting off site employees towards the total safe/not safe percentage can cause confusion. We will investigate further and open this up for votes.

Thanks

    Also to add if a selective notification feature within OnEvac — something like the “Send SMS to onsite only” or “Include all users” toggle, similar to how SMS Verification lets admins decide who receives messages. Hoping for flexibility:

    Site emergencies → onsite only

    Wider emergencies (storm, earthquake) → everyone in the organization. (Reference to: 06853633)
