It’s now easier than ever to make the switch from Xero to Tanda Payroll! We’ve just released a way to automatically import employee payroll data directly from Xero without needing to export and upload CSV files manually.

A new option is now available under . With your Xero account connected, Tanda will fetch your employee data and allow you to preview the results before confirming the import.

Learn more about this process in this help guide.

Nest requires a reason when an employee has zero employer and employee pension contributions in a pay period.

When you run payroll, we'll flag these employees and prompt you to select a valid reason, which we’ll send to Nest with the submission for that pay period.

We’ve just released the for all Tanda HR users (AU), a collection of ready-made training courses that you can assign to your team! These courses are managed by Tanda and are included in your Tanda HR subscription at no additional cost.

Training modules include topics such as Workplace Health & Safety, Discrimination & Harassment, Knife Safety, Allergies and Dietaries and more. Each module is built into the same format as custom Training Templates in Tanda, and includes video/text content as well as interactive quizzes. Certain sections also allow editing to make the courses more suited to your business.

This is the first iteration of managed training content, with more modules planned for release in the future. Find this under > > .

We’ve recently made updates in Tanda Payroll to ensure allowances report their tax-free portions correctly to STP. In doing so, you may have noticed differences when comparing Tanda pay run data with the ATO portal.

This difference stems from the tax-free portion of allowances like Laundry Allowances, which is now reported alongside the taxed portions.

To make it easier to reconcile these amounts, we've added a new in pay runs, showing the taxable earnings plus any tax-free allowance amounts that have been reported to STP.

Additionally, we've added an to the Activity Details Report.

Expanding on the recent parental consent update in Tanda Hire, we are now introducing parental consent when new employees as well.

When inviting an employee through paperless onboarding, if they are below the configured age threshold, they will be prompted to provide a parent or guardian’s details. An email will then be sent requesting a digital signature to confirm consent for employment.

Onboarding cannot be completed until the consent form has been signed.

You can configure the minimum age threshold for parental consent in onboarding under each (Workforce > Teams > Location > Advanced Options).

Salaried employees now have their leave , without needing to export timesheets.

When you create an in-cycle pay run from the Pay Runs page, approved leave requests will now automatically be included alongside their Salary Template, streamlining the payroll process when timesheets aren't normally used.

Note that exporting timesheets with leave will still work as before and won’t result in duplicate leave entries on salaried payslips.

You can now log phone calls directly on a candidate’s application in Tanda Hire. A new tab is available on their profile.

When adding a call record, you can set:

Each call entry shows the recruiter, timestamp, status, and any notes. Calls can only be edited or deleted by the person who logged them.

You can now teams in Tanda instead of permanently deleting or renaming them.

Note that archiving a team will still unassign it from any rostered shifts.

This will make it easier to keep your team list organised without losing access to historical data.
