We’ve just moved the
Payroll Tax Calculator Report
, the EOFY Finalisation Report
and the NZ Activity Details Report
from the payroll reporting structure into the Workforce Management (WFM) framework. The reports may look different, but all data, filters and functionality will work the same as before. This is part of our ongoing work to transition payroll reports to the WFM structure for improved performance and reliability, particularly for larger cohorts.
Lump sum tax amounts are now also included in the Payroll Tax Calculator Report.

Staff Profile
Payroll Inactivity Lock Screen
We are beginning to switch the payroll inactivity lock functionality on again. This means that if you are on a payroll page or a user profile page with sensitive data for 30 minutes of inactivity, you will see a locked screen that requires your password to unlock.
This is currently enabled for only some users and will be rolled out to more accounts soon.
You can read more about the ATO requirements that led to this change Here.

Syncing Forms to Partnered Accounts

Employee Profile
Salaried Overtime Enhancements
You can now pay and cost overtime on top of a salary more easily using the new
Hourly Rate Enhanced
salary allocation method. This method works similarly to the existing hourly rate approach, with improved handling for overtime and payroll alignment.
Requirements
Salaried employees using this method must have both Contracted Weekly Hours and a Salary set in their Pay Conditions.
What’s new
- With this method chosen, the hourly rate is derived directly from the employee's pay conditions, rather than from averaging the salary across hours worked in a timesheet.
- Hourly rates for loadings, leave, deductions, and allowances are also calculated from salary and CWH.
- Salary is prorated when employment starts or ends mid-period.
This is currently available for some organisations before becoming live system-wide.
You can enable this under
Settings > General Settings > Salaried Staff

Positions
Organisation Chart Revamp
We’ve rolled out a refreshed, position-focused organisation chart that makes it easier to understand your structure and identify vacancies across your organisation.
What’s new
The
main org chart
no longer splits by location, resulting in a cleaner and more readable layout. Select a location to see staff counts and required headcounts. Colour-coded indicators highlight fully staffed, understaffed, critically understaffed, and overstaffed positions.
Positions without reporting lines are grouped into a collapsible section at the bottom of the page.
A new
grid view
also shows position titles by level without reporting lines. Selecting a position brings its reporting structure into focus.
This update makes it easier to see how your organisation is structured and take action when roles need filling.
