January 2026 Update - New Features and Improvements

We’ve been hard at work since mid-December, delivering new features and improvements. Here’s what’s new.

✨ Custom Attributes

You can now extend employee and organization unit data with custom attributes:

  • Flexible Fields: Add text, numbers, dates, checkboxes, and dropdown lists to employees and organization units
  • Required & Unique: Mark attributes as required or enforce unique values across your workspace
  • Search Integration: Searchable attributes are automatically included when you search for employees
  • Easy Management: Configure custom attributes in workspace settings

Custom attributes are also available for employment terms, giving you complete flexibility in how you track information.

🔄 Background Jobs

View and manage automated tasks from the new Jobs page in the admin section:

  • Auto-provisioning: Employees are automatically set up with accounts when their start date arrives, and offboarded when they leave
  • Workspace Cleanup: Deactivated workspaces are automatically deleted after 30 days
  • Job History: See when jobs ran, their results, and any errors
  • Manual Triggers: Run jobs on demand when needed

👤 User Management

Preferred Names: We’ve renamed “call name” to “preferred name” throughout the system for better clarity. This field is now required when creating accounts.

Activity Tracking: See when users, API keys, and kiosks were last active to monitor usage and identify inactive accounts.

Service Accounts: Create service users with API keys for integrations and automated systems. Monitor when each API key was last used.

Version History: Track changes to employment terms, time off policies, and allowance policies with full version history. Click the history button when editing these items to see all past versions.

🎨 User Interface Improvements

Keyboard Shortcuts:

  • Cmd/Ctrl + K: Open command menu to quickly search for employees
  • Cmd/Ctrl + H: Open assistant
  • Cmd/Ctrl + S: Save when editing (where available)
  • Tab and Arrow keys: Navigate through tables

Better Forms:

  • Clear indicators show which fields are required
  • Improved layouts with two-column forms where appropriate
  • Better error messages when validation fails
  • Forms remember your progress if you navigate away

Smoother Experience:

  • Faster page transitions without flickering
  • Mobile-friendly card views for tables
  • Data stays loaded when you navigate back to a page
  • Install as a mobile app with update notifications

Full-Page Editors: Organization units and other entities now use full-page edit views instead of modal dialogs, giving you more space to work.

🌍 Language Support

Documentation is now available with screenshots in English, French, and Danish, making it easier to learn the system in your preferred language.

🐛 Notable Fixes

  • Fixed issues with kiosk pages not loading correctly
  • Improved employee search in the command menu

  • Improved error messages throughout the system

🔒 Security

Behind the scenes, we’ve significantly enhanced security with improved input validation, stronger password hashing, and better protection against common web attacks. Your data is safer than ever.

🎯 What’s Next

We’re working on enhanced time-off management features, integrations framework and data migration from mTime 5. Stay tuned for more updates!
