By introducing automatic payroll recalculation, configurable system preferences, new HR reporting capabilities, and enhanced attendance diagnostics, Release 2.6.1 helps organizations reduce manual effort, improve payroll accuracy, and make better-informed decisions.

Whether managing payroll changes, configuring organizational structures, or monitoring employee attendance, these enhancements are designed to streamline daily HR operations while delivering a more personalized user experience across the platform.

What’s New for HR Teams

1. Automatic Payroll Effects Recalculation

Payroll-related requests are now automatically recalculated whenever an employee's salary changes—whether the change is made manually or through the Salary Loader.

Affected requests include:

  • Penalty Request
  • Leave Requests
  • Leave Encashment Request
  • Excuse Requests
  • Overtime Requests

This automation ensures payroll calculations always reflect the latest employee salary, eliminating manual recalculations and improving payroll accuracy.

2. Organizational Setup Loader

Managing organizational structures is now faster and easier with the new Setup Loader, allowing HR administrators to bulk import and maintain core master data, including:

  • Jobs
  • Departments
  • Grades
  • Areas
  • Locations

This significantly reduces administrative effort, accelerates system implementation, and simplifies ongoing organizational updates.

3. Gross to Net by Period Report

A new payroll analytics report provides detailed Gross-to-Net calculations for any selected payroll period.

The report enables HR and Payroll teams to:

  • Review payroll breakdowns
  • Analyze deductions and earnings
  • Validate payroll results
  • Improve payroll transparency

4. Mobile Attendance Request Report

HR administrators now have a dedicated report for Mobile Attendance Requests, providing better visibility into illegal submitted attendance punshes and supporting faster review and auditing processes.

5. Change Shift Request Report

A new reporting capability provides complete visibility into employee shift change requests, allowing HR teams to monitor approvals, analyze shift movement trends, and improve workforce scheduling.

Enhancements That Improve Daily HR Operations

1. Enhanced Mobile Punches Log

The Punches Log has been significantly enhanced to provide clearer diagnostics for failed mobile attendance punches.

HR teams can now more easily identify common issues such as:

  • GPS validation failures
  • Location restrictions
  • Network connectivity issues
  • Device configuration problems
  • Other mobile attendance validation errors

This enhancement accelerates troubleshooting, reduces support effort, and improves overall attendance reliability.
