Payroll Enhancements

This release comprises of a host of minor enhancements and bug fixes aimed at improving the user experience in the system. These are as follows

  1. Easily search and add bank sort codes for employees: Managing employee bank details is now simpler. Use a convenient search box to quickly find the correct sort code. If a sort code isn't available, you can add it directly within Payroll web.
    When editing the sort code, you can now type into the entry box rather than selecting from the dropdown list. This will search the list for any pre-exisiting ones. If the sort code doesn't exist, then an add option will be available.
    Click this to add it to the list. If you exclude the hyphens "-" between the numbers, you will not get any search results back, but if you try to add it, you will receive a warning that the number already exists and this sort code will be selected anyway.
  2. Various Bug Fixes
    1. Session timeout resolved: The system no longer logs you out after an hour of active use 
    2. Corrected SSP recovery: Statutory Sick Pay is now properly recovered when the only instance in the diary is removed
    3. Improved employee management: Fixed an error which could occurred when switching from adding a new employee to viewing an existing one
    4. Accurate CSP payments: Improvements have been made to ensure that Company Sick Pay is calculated correctly for employees on long-term unpaid sick leave
    5. (12/12/2024) Fixed SSP calculation: Fixed issue whereby in certain scenarios the previous instance of SSP was being included in the calculation
