We've just launched a major improvement to payslip access experience giving both employers and employees more power and flexibility as to how they access their payslips.

Web Access for All - Employees can now view and download their payslips directly on the Deputy web platform—a perfect alternative for those who prefer desktop or don't have a smartphone.

Instant Email Notifications - Right at the end of a pay run, employers can send out email notifications to let everyone know their payslip is ready. (For high security, we send a secure link, not the PDF)

Always in control! - Need to notify a specific location, employment type, or just a single person about a payslip? Our filtering options make that easy.

How does it work?

When you complete and lock a payrun in Deputy Payroll now, a new option will appear allowing you to send payslip notifications to your employees.

Clicking Send Payslips will then open a dialog allowing you to select which employees to notify.

You can choose to email every employee, or you can filter based on options such as:

- Locations

- Employment type (Full Time, Casual etc)

Once you have selected who you want to email payslip notifications to, click Email Payslips and the notifications will be sent to employees. Allowing them to login to Deputy and view and download their payslips on the web application.

Availability

This is now available for all customers with Deputy Payroll in the Australia region.

To make managing company documents easier, we’ve introduced folders in the Document Library. Managers can now organise and access documents more efficiently, ensuring important files are easily found and managed.

Set up your document library now

Since the launch of Deputy Payroll we've been blown away at the amazing feedback and positive sentiment. However, we've also seen and heard that many customers are having trouble and dropping off at the Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) setup, making the onboarding process longer and tricker than it needed to be.

🔐 Keeping your payroll data secure is a critical priority and staying compliant with Australian government requirements is a non-negotiable. Mandatory MFA is one of the best ways to achieve this, which is why our team has been hard at work streamlining the experience. Now you can setup MFA directly in your Deputy tenant, without leaving the setup flow or dealing with extra steps.

📱When setting up payroll, you'll simply scan a QR code to add your authentication codes in your preferred authentication app (Google Passwords, Apple Passwords, 1Password, Authy, etc.) and get straight back to setting up Deputy Payroll - quick, simple, secure. ✅

✨ This update is now live for all Deputy Australian customers.

As part of our ongoing commitment to privacy, we’ve refined Hire permissions. Managers will now only see job listings and candidates for the locations they’re assigned to—ensuring access is limited to what’s relevant, protecting confidential details, and making Hire simpler and easier to use.

Document Library just got more powerful. Now, when uploading a document or video, you can choose whether an acknowledgement requires a signature. Easily upload, share, and track acknowledgements in Deputy HR—with full visibility in Company Document reports.

Create your Document Library

Contracts often require multiple signatures, so we’ve enhanced the signed document experience in Deputy HR. You can now assign up to five parties to sign a contract—while still enjoying automated notifications and seamless storage of the completed document directly in the employee’s profile, both on desktop and in the app. 

Create a multi-party contract now 

Building on the success of Document Library in Deputy HR—and thanks to customer feedback—we’re excited to introduce a powerful new feature: the ability to upload, share, and track acknowledgements for MP4 videos.

This means you can go beyond documents and bring policies, training, and updates to life with video.

We’ve improved the shift dynamic changes experience in the Mobile app, making it easier for managers and employees to handle the updates on the go.

What’s new:

The whole dynamic changes workflow supports both Micro-scheduling shifts and normal single area shifts.

• Intuitive workflow – The shift dynamic workflow has been redesigned to be more user-friendly and fully compatible with Micro-scheduling shifts.
• Manager shift replacement – Managers can now find replacements for an entire micro-scheduling shift directly in the Mobile app.
• Employee flexibility – Employees can swap or offer their assigned shifts with colleagues straight from Mobile.
• Manager approvals – Managers can approve or reject swap requests from both Mobile and Web.
• Backward compatibility – Dynamic shift features continue to work for single-area rosters as usual.

⚠️ Note: Currently, the whole workflow apply to the entire shift (including all sub-shifts in a Micro-scheduling shift). Partial swap/offer/replacement isn’t yet supported. As a workaround, managers can use the Link/Split Shift feature to divide shifts and reassign parts.

We've made it even easier to narrow down to the right group team members by adding the ability to filter your employee list by as many criteria as you need. We've added some much requested options such as:

• Employment type
• Locations
• Stress profiles
• Tags

just to name a few. This will be rolling out before the end of the year, but as a nice simple lightweight change, we are now opening this up to any customers who need greater flexibility when it comes to honing into specific sets of staff members and shifts when scheduling.
