You can now request enhanced DBS checks through Trust ID for both new starters and existing employees, directly within Workforce.
What does this mean?
Once a check is requested, employees complete their details via a secure link, and admins can review and submit the application. Status updates are tracked in-product, keeping both employers and employees informed throughout the process.
This helps streamline compliance checks and reduces manual admin when onboarding or managing staff.

Rostering

Breaks

New Look: Roster Day View

We're currently rolling out a refreshed and smoother version of the
Day View
in the roster.
When this update reaches your account, you shouldn't notice any big changes with how you roster staff, but you may notice some slight visual and functional updates, including (but not limited to):
  • Breaks can now be dragged and dropped
    to different times in the shift as a whole, rather than adjusting the start/end times. Hover over the break from the top of the shift and drag and drop it to a new location:Screenshot 2026-04-14 at 2
  • A new 'Employee can't work in team' visual warning
    when dragging shifts to other employees, showing which employees do not work in the team of that schedule:Screenshot 2026-04-14 at 3
We've updated the navigation for the Payroll Staff list. You can now find this under
Workforce
>
Staff
>
Payroll Setup Checklist
.

The exact same functionality has been retained, it is just now located on the main staff page.

Reporting

Leave

Recent Reporting Updates

We've recently made the following improvements to reports in Tanda:
  1. Activity Details: Leave Payment Types are now listed separately.
    Previously, the different leave payment types (taken, cashed out, paid on termination) were grouped in one leave column in the Activity Details report. These different types are now listed in separate columns.
  2. Employee Report: Onboarding Completed Date.
    You can now generate the date the employee completed their onboarding in the Employee Report.
  3. Costs By Employee: Separate rows by team.
    When this report uses header grouping (Age Group, Tenure, Employment Type or Classification) and "Teams worked in" is selected as a visible column, each header group is now broken into sub-rows for each team.
You can now export and download a CSV file of all recorded
Incidents
in your account.
Click the new
Download CSV
button on the
HR
>
Incidents
page. Both 'Submitted' and 'Not Submitted' records will be included.

In the Incident Export page, choose which fields to include in the file, then click

When hiring multiple candidates for the same role in Tanda Hire, you previously had to onboard each candidate one by one, re-entering the same employment details every time.
The new
Bulk Hire
feature lets you select multiple candidates and hire them in one go.
Select the candidates you want to hire in the Applications page, then click
Bulk Actions
>
Bulk Hire
and step through:
  1. Employment details:
    set position, team, contracts, documents, training and qualifications once, applied to all selected candidates
  2. Pay conditions:
    award template, employment type, classification, pay rates and contracted hours
  3. Pay Checks:
    automatic pay checks flag any blocking errors or warnings before anyone gets hired, and allow you to deselect any profiles from the process
  4. Contract review:
    preview unsigned contracts and fill any blank dynamic fields
  5. Summary:
    final review of all candidate data before committing
  6. Onboarding invitations (and any associated forms/emails) are sent to all selected staff, and all profiles are marked as Hired.
You can also abandon and resume a bulk hire instance at anytime

You can now create custom and varied
Roster Validations
in Tanda.
Write a rule about how staff should be rostered in natural, plain English, and the system will use AI to turn this into a validation rule that will apply in the roster.

Find this under
Settings
>
All Settings
>
Rosters
>
Natural Language Validation Rules
.
This also allows you to configure new roster validations for
wage comparisons
and
budgets
.

We've introduced a new Award Rule condition:
Daily from Regular Hours
. This causes the rule to apply once the hours set in the employee’s Regular Hours of Work are exceeded for that day.
image
This also accounts for shift acceptance, so if the employee has agreed to different hours for the day, the rule will look at the adjusted hours instead of what is in their Pay Conditions.
Going live later today, you'll notice a small change when adding shifts in the roster.
Instead of clicking into a shift cell, then clicking '+ Add Shift' (or clicking in the side bar to add On Calls, Sleepovers, RDOs, Not Rostered, or Leave), a redesigned '+ Add Shift' button will appear when you
hover
over the cell, allowing you to create the shift in one click.
This new button also includes a dropdown to add one of the aforementioned shift types without having to go to the sidebar.
