Organizations can now use their company logo to brand the ESS and personalize the user experience.

Logos can be uploaded in Actions > ESS Admin > Branding.

711

Only Admins and above have access to this feature.

Copy Library Documents to Other Companies

Document Builder has been updated to allow Documents to be copied to multiple companies.

Once a form is built and customized, the efforts do not need to be duplicated. Simply create a form once using the auto populated and input field options, and then copy the document to other companies within the organization. Copying documents to other companies will maintain all mapping settings.

Medical Records Declined Option

Per client request, we have added an option to set an employee medical record as declined. This would be utilized to create a record for employees who have not completed the record that is required for them. Reports can be run based on the Medical Record Declined field.

Home Page Company Filter by Payroll Due Date

Per client request, the home page can be filtered for companies based on their payroll schedule date. Clients can choose to view payrolls that are past due, due today, or due tomorrow.

Onboarding Email Reminder

When an employee is in the process of Onboarding, they will get an email reminder every 3 days prompting them to complete their onboarding packet.

Accrual Policy Setup Enhancements

Cloning Accrual Conditions

In the Accrual Rules, conditions can be copied to the next row, allowing conditions to be set with ease for the same groups of employees for different levels of accrual.

Saving Accrual Polices as a Draft

When adding a new accrual policy, users now have the ability to save a draft and come back at a later time to complete the setup. This will greatly enhance and simplify the user experience of adding a new accrual policy.

Global Search within a Specific Company

Global search now allows for the searching of an employee in a specific company.

Users can use the @ symbol to search for employees associated with a particular company ID. For example, “Johnson @4962” will search for the employee named Johnson in company 4962 only, while the search for “Johnson” will return all Johnsons across all your companies.

Keyboard Navigation on Employee List

Per client feedback, users can navigate using the up and down arrows to switch between employees in an employee list and can use the enter key to select an employee to view.

Payroll Errors and Warnings Download

Client users can now download a report of all payroll errors and warnings when verifying their payroll data. In the payroll verification step, when you click on errors and warnings, there is now a download option.

Regenerating Payroll Reports after Processing

Clients now have the ability to rerun payroll reports after processing payroll by exporting to email, Docs, or ftp.

Security Update - Mask Direct Deposit in Pay History

Direct deposit information will now be masked in Pay History for users with no Direct Deposit access.

Excluding Memo Earning Codes from Reports

The standard Labor Distribution and Payroll Register reports now have a setting to exclude Memo earning codes from the report.
