New Features and Fixes | May 2022

The demands companies receive from employees continues to change. Amongst those is early access to wages, and it’s no surprise that companies are looking for ways to cater to these demands. According to research, 78% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck. 

Our ReadyPay Today solution is perfect for offering employees early access to earned wages. From IRS compliance to early access to wages for hourly and salaried employees, ReadyPay Today ensures your employees are satisfied, resulting in increased recruitment and retention while eliminating absenteeism. 

As we continue to offer this effective solution, we also continue to make the necessary improvements. Here are some new features and fixes we have recently made to ReadyPay Today.

Easier Report Access
A high number of employees can be difficult to keep track. With that in mind, we have added an export button to the Change Log page so clients are able to export results in Excel.

Export button added to allow clients full reports in Excel.

In addition, the following have been added for easier functionality:

  • New maps will be immediately available in the Maps drop-down.
  • My Service Team page will now display Benefits Administration and contact information under the “Service Contacts” section 
  • Approval Groups has been updated to use a searchable page drop-down for improved performance.
  • Admins can now cancel approvals for API calls from ReadyTime and ATS. 
  • Password minimum length is being increased to 8 characters. 

Another important update is the addition of a  OTP (One Time Password) Login Authentication option. When enabled, this will require ESS users logging in to download an Authenticator app to generate codes that will be validated during the login process. Users can use a QR code to obtain the required app.

Employee Self-Service
For easier navigation, an icon next to the User Initials/Profile circle will now indicate which view is being used for Admins and Supervisors.

E-Hire (Onboarding)
The ability to locate a matching employee record has been added in order to reduce the need for usernames ending in “1” to ensure standard formatting. 

A toggle to “Show Active Only” and an Active column has been added this page for reference.
