General update
- During this sprint we’ve made several improvements addressing loading times. Talexio is growing with many new users being onboarded on a daily basis and we remain focused on scaling up to the increased usage. The following are some of the speed related improvements in this release.
- Improved cloud infrastructure.
- Several bulk jobs, such as generating payslips and producing large reports, have been optimised for speed.
- The introduction of a new mechanism to reduce loading times throughout the entire platform.
- We are giving special attention to the Payroll section to ensure that editing payslips is a smoother experience. See further updates on this in the Payroll changes below.
- Our new Performance Management module is well under way and we aim to have the first version available by the end of the year.
HR
- Users can now add a list of language proficiencies to their profile. This will allow employers to keep track of the languages spoken by their employees, as well as the proficiency of such. A new filter has also been added to the People section to allow easier traceability of the employees’ languages.
- We have moved the announcements module into the main menu bar, allowing easier access.
- We've improved the daily leave email notifications by rearranging their contents, making the email clearer to read and more easily understandable.
- A new category “work permits” has been added to the employee documents upload section;
- We’ve improved the Resources section so that it is now easier to link resources to multiple units.
- We have removed the 15 minute delay for permission changes to come into effect - Permission updates are now applied immediately.
- We’ve improved checklist handling when attachments are included within a task. Now, when a user uploads an attachment, the icon will update to indicate that an upload has been attached.
Payroll
- The Payment report can now be downloaded in excel format
- The process speed to generate and edit payslips in bulk has been optimized.
- We’ve added ‘country’ in the address field in the FS3 documents for foreign employees.
- After editing anything within a payslip, you will need to press calculate and save in order for the payslip to reflect the changes. This will reduce lag time.
- We have separated the lock and save buttons on the payslip.
Time and Attendance
- If you populate the working schedule by means of the bulk upload template, you may now add the shift’s time in and time out directly through the template.
