Updates and performance improvements

Minus time on last day of period

Minus time is now generated on the last day of the selected period instead of the last day in the period containing a punch. This will allow for minus time to be generated within the correct period regardless of the period selected within transfer to payroll matches the period of the minus time calculation.

In Classic, a virtual shift will "hold" the generated minus time:

In Neo, it will be visible on the Time card in the Salary type overview:

It's also reflected in the statistics related to salary cost for the day it is generated on (last day of period). It will not be shown in the TTP view, but will, of course, be transferred to payroll and visible in all reports done from analytics.

Performance improvements

  • General performance improvements within processing of salary types.
  • General performance improvements within generation of payroll files.

Bug fixes

  • Correction to Employees missing in Payroll Report using “Only approved time punches”.

We encourage all our customers to make use of our APIs to maintain data and make sure that information is up to date. To ensure scalability of our APIs while growing our customer and user base, we have decided to add restrictions on usage of our SOAP APIs. These restrictions will be enforced programmatically and means that we will enforce a limit on concurrent calls per customer to 10. You should expect response code 429 if you happen to exceed this limit and you are recommended to implement a backoff-retry mechanism to handle the limit. We will start by introducing the limit at a higher level which will not affect any customers’ usage on RC for testing purposes within the next month and on Production January 14th. The limit of 10 concurrent calls will be introduced on RC January 21st and on Production February 10th.Note that the limit applies to SOAP only. When moving from SOAP to Rest over the following years, any limits will be built into the API. Please make sure to forward this information to the party within your company responsible for integrations.
