SI-2836 -
Two new fields have been added to the query builder that provides the most recent date and time that the background job for this function ran for each employee. This is so you can ensure that the score is the most up to date. The fields are named ‘Bradford Factor Updated Date/Time’ and can be found in the Employee Details area.

SI-2861 - In some cases, the Full Time Hours field was showing blank in the query builder. Data corrections have been made for the affected users.

SI-2753 - Employees will not longer be able to edit the ‘Paid’ status of a sickness. 

SI-2635 - The value of the ‘Recover on Termination’ field in the Benefits logbook will now be correctly saved. This also confirms that if a benefit does need to be returned before an employee leaves the company, this will flag up on the leaver wizard.

SI-2736 - An additional field has been added to the Tasks area to show who had created the Task.

SI-2647 - Necessary validations have been added to ensure only supported data is added in a logbook screen. This ensures that the logbook screen can be accessed and reported on within the query builder.  

SI-2903 - Capital letters on the ‘Paid’ status in sicknesses will be kept consistent. 

SI-2613 - A data correction has been made for affected users where, in some specific cases, Holiday Approval Workflows were not being taken into account when a holiday was requested.

SI-2728 - A new function has been added to the Bulk Actions area which will allow you to bulk upload logbook data. For more information on this, please see the article:  http://help.peoplehr.com/bulk-actions/bulk-actions-logbook-data-upload

SI-2943 - Within the API tab in Settings, API keys will now be masked to ensure security - some parts of the key will not be displayed. To copy and paste, there is now a button available for users to select which will copy the API key to your clipboard in order to paste externally. Any changes to the API area have been added to the updated article ‘Creating an API Key’: http://help.peoplehr.com/integrations/creating-an-api-key 

SI-2869, SI-2941 & SI-2934 - When creating an API key, you have the option to restrict the use of this key under specific IP addresses.

SI-3026 - In some cases, response status code displaying as 5 rather than 0 when successfully adding an other event using the API - this has now been resolved.
