We recommend connecting your HRIS to sync anniversary dates automatically.
Never miss a work anniversary again! Doozy automatically announces anniversaries in your chosen channel, sends digital cards for your team to sign, and notifies managers ahead of time.

​
🚀 Getting Started

  1. Go to doozy.live/app and open Celebrations
  2. Set up a new Anniversaries celebration
  3. Configure your settings (see below)
  4. Save to start celebrating 🚀

Channel & Timing

​
Message Customization

Personalize your anniversary announcements:
  • Individual message template: Customize the message for each person being celebrated
    • Available variables: {{name}} (mentions the person), {{years}} (number of years), {{year-label}} (year/years)
  • Footer message: Optional message shown once at the bottom of all announcements
  • Preview: Click ”👀 Preview message” to see how it will look

Celebration Cards

Digital cards your team can sign with messages, images, GIFs, and more!

​
📅 How It Works

  1. A week before: Managers (and selected users) are notified about the upcoming anniversary
  2. Card sharing: Notified users can share the digital card with others to sign
  3. On the day: Anniversary is announced in your chosen channel with the signed card
  4. Team participation: Everyone can add their message if they haven’t already
Connect your HRIS to automatically sync anniversary dates and enable manager notifications!

​
🔧 Troubleshooting

Why wasn’t someone’s anniversary posted?
  • Check that their start date/anniversary is recorded in Doozy
  • Verify they haven’t opted out of anniversary celebrations
  • Ensure they’re a member of the celebrations channel in Slack
How do I update someone’s anniversary date?
  • If connected to an HRIS, update it in your HR system and it will sync automatically
  • Otherwise, update the date from Celebrations in the Doozy dashboard - see Manage Celebrations

​
⭐ Best Practices
