We have added a new filter to the Partnered Organisation Details Report: 'Include only active organisations.' For example:

By using this, customers can now filter to only display currently active organisations in their network, and see if that organisation has billing set up.

Pay Checks
Change to 'Maximum Shift Setting' Pay Check Default
We are changing the default setting for the Pay Check ‘
The worked shift is longer than the Organisation’s maximum shift setting’
from Disabled to Blocking. 
Generally, shifts exceeding the maximum shift length threshold represent bad data, so making the default setting ‘blocking’ prevents bad data from ending up in a pay run.
If employees regularly work beyond the maximum shift length setting in your organisation, you should consider either:
- Increasing the maximum shift length setting (located under the advanced settings for Timesheets), or;
- Disabling this Pay Check via the Central Pay Check Report
This change is being made based on customer feedback. If you have not previously altered the default setting for this check, the change will apply. No change will be made for any customers who have already modified this Pay Check from the original default position.
You can learn more about Pay Checks in our help guide.

Pay Checks
Change to Default 'Payroll ID' Pay Check Setting
We are changing the default setting for the Payroll Check ‘
The employee has no payroll ID entered
’ to ‘Disabled’. 
This change is being made because, for many customers, a payroll ID is not required at all. Customers for whom a payroll ID is relevant can still enable this Pay Check on a need-basis by navigating to the Central Pay Check Report and selecting Configure Checks.
This change is being made based on customer feedback. If you have not previously altered the default setting for this check, this change will apply. No change will be made for any customers who have already modified this Pay Check from the original default position.
You can learn more about Pay Checks in our help guide.
We have updated how Warnings work in Tanda to better align them with the rest of Tanda HR.
Specifically, we have introduced Warning Templates and Warning Letters.

Following these updates, the process to create and issue a Warning is as follows:
- Navigate to HR > Warnings.
- Select + Create Warning Template. You will be prompted to name your Warning Template and provide a reason. You can also select who will be notified when the warning is issued, who can issue the warning, and who the warning will be visible to once issued.
- Next, create a Warning Letter (optional). Attach this letter to your Warning Template to provide the employee with more specific, detailed information about the Warning.
- Once you have attached your Warning Letter to a Warning Template (optional), select ‘Issue.’ Then, you can choose which employee to issue the warning to and either save this as a Draft or Issue the Warning.

Once issued, the employee will receive an email and push notification prompting them to Acknowledge the Warning. Warnings now have three states: Draft, Issued, and Acknowledged.
We have just added new, configurable TOIL expiry notifications, to help users track and manage their TOIL balances effectively.

When configured, notifications will be sent weekly, one period before a TOIL balance is set to expire. The notifications include:
- A notification to the user, prompting them to use their TOIL balance that is about to expire.
- A notification to the manager, informing them of the balance that will need to be paid out if it is not taken before expiry.
To configure these notifications, navigate to
Notifications > Notification Settings > More Notifications
, and select whether you want to receive email notifications, push notifications, or both. new
Features
Upload SCORM Training Content
We have just introduced the ability for Tanda HR customers to upload SCORM content as part of our Training feature.
SCORM (Sharable Content Object Reference Mode) is "a set of technical standards for eLearning software products” widely considered the “de facto industry standard” for eLearning. Accordingly, this update gives users far more flexibility over what training files they can upload.
Following this release, organisations will be able to create Training Templates by uploading existing SCORM content (noting that we cannot create SCORM files from scratch in Tanda).
To get started, navigate to
HR > Training > Training Templates > + Create > SCORM.

Then, name your template, upload your SCORM content (ZIP files up to 75MB are supported), set your notification and expiry preferences, and click
Create
. Depending on the size of your SCORM file, you may see a ‘Preparing SCORM Training’ alert for a few minutes.

Once this process is finalised, your Training Template is ready to be assigned. To learn more, see our Create and Assign Training Templates help guide.

Employee Profile
Upload Warnings, Incidents, and Training to Staff Profiles
We have introduced the ability for Tanda HR users to upload historical records of warnings, incidents, and training directly to staff profiles.

To do so, first navigate to an employee's profile, then:
- Warnings:select HR > Performance > + New Warning.
- Incidents:select HR > Incidents > + New Incident.
- Training:select HR > Train & Qualify > + Add Record of Training.

This new functionality is intended to make it easier for users to house and manage historical training/incidents that may have occurred before joining Tanda.

Reports
Bulk Download Qualifications
We have added a new option to download attachments in bulk on the Employee Qualification Report.
To do so, simply navigate to Reports > Employee Qualification report, then generate the report, click the 'Actions' menu, and select 'Download attachments'.

We have just launched a new beta leave screen on a trial basis, with the aim of creating an easier and more efficient leave review workflow.
Please be aware that this is
an entirely opt-in feature. Should you wish to continue using the current leave screen, you can.
If you do want to trial the new beta leave screen, simply navigate to Time & Attendance and select Leave (Beta), located next to the existing leave link. 
The primary differences with this new Leave (Beta) include a new layout, allowing users to navigate between leave requests without changing screens, as well as new leave demand charts, and changes to some of the layout and filtering options.
Upon landing on the new Leave (Beta) page, you should be greeted with an FAQ pop-up, addressing any further questions you may have.
We encourage you to submit any constructive feedback on this new beta leave screen, either via a short feedback survey here, or by contacting our support team directly.
