2024.02 Service Pack 1 release notes

This service pack resolves an issue that could affect companies with Exo Payroll installed in multiple folders – e.g. different folders for AU payroll and NZ payroll. Creating payslips for multiple payrolls at once could cause an employee to receive another employee’s payslip.

New features

To resolve the issue, you need to select a new checkbox for all payroll companies: Prevent users creating payslips for multiple payrolls at once.

If a user tries creating payslips for one payroll while payslips are already being created for another, they get a message to wait until the first lot of payslips are finished.

• For Australian companies, the checkbox is on the Other tab of the Setup Payroll screen.

  

• For New Zealand companies, the checkbox is on the Special Options Setup screen.

  

We’ve also added the option to choose a Lock file location. The lock file is what Exo Payroll uses to prevent payslips being created for multiple payrolls at once.

If you don’t choose a location, a folder is created automatically the next time a user creates payslips.
