New

• Added a Company Entity field to the employee profile, chosen from a managed list and maintained the same way as Department and Job Title.
• Added a Tax Resident setting (Resident / Non-Resident) to the Tax Statutory section of the employee profile, kept separate from the residency field in personal information. Monthly tax deduction now follows tax residency, while bank files continue to follow nationality.
• Added exception criteria to the Employee Confirmation notification settings. Employees who match the criteria — by department, job grade, division or employee group — are skipped by the automatic due-date reminder, and everyone else still receives theirs.
• Added a Group By Company Branch option to the Master Payroll Report source.
• Added a UOB statutory bank file format for SKBBK submission.

Improved

• The Clock Time Application screen now shows the time that was applied, so admins can check it without looking elsewhere.
• Clock files can now be re-uploaded under the same filename. Each upload is given its own batch number, and duplicate rows are still detected by card, date and time, so nothing is counted twice.
• The Public Bank SOCSO contribution file now carries the SKBBK amount inside the existing contribution column, so no new file format is needed.
• The OCBC SOCSO contribution file now carries the SKBBK amount inside the existing contribution column, so no new file format is needed.
• The Transaction Code Listing report now includes an SKBBK column alongside EPF, SOCSO, EIS, HRD, income tax and zakat, so payroll administrators can see which transaction codes are subject to SKBBK.
• The Absent Listing report now shows Company Branch instead of Division.
• All email notifications from the web application and the background services now go onto a single queue, drained by one delivery service, with SendGrid supported.

Fixed

• Fixed the Overtime Application Listing not exporting when the file type was set to Excel Data File — the page went blank and no file was produced.
• Fixed application listing pages exporting the wrong columns to Excel and print: the Action and checkbox columns, which hold no data, are no longer included.
• Fixed the SKBBK contribution not appearing in the Payroll Ledger report.
• Fixed the UOB bank file being rejected by the bank. The purpose code now uses the required five-digit code, and the Transactor Relationship field is included.
• Fixed the Public Bank MTD (PCB) autopay file being rejected at line 8. The Tax Reference No. and Employee No. column headers now carry the full stop the bank expects, so the file is accepted without editing it by hand.
