We will be reducing the number of automatically-generated tickets for Embedded Setup companies, while continuing to send all of the same information. Today, most of the communications about an Embedded Setup company occur on one setup ticket; however, a separate ticket is automatically generated when the company is moved to the final activation step. To simplify managing all information about Embedded Setup companies’ go-lives, we will begin sending the activation message on the existing setup ticket rather than creating a new ticket. We will notify you when this change goes into effect.

Normally payrolls on a four-day processing period must be approved by 8pm ET four business days prior to payday. However, we make an exception for payrolls that contain only payroll items with a manual payment method. For example, if an employer forgets to run payroll, they can set the payment method for each item on the payroll to manual, approve it all the way up to and including on payday, and then pay employees with cash or paper checks.While useful to employers, it’s important to note that in these situations Check cannot guarantee that all tax payments will be made on time if the payroll is funded via ACH. We must wait three business days after payday before making any tax payments triggered by these payrolls, regardless of when the tax payments are due, to ensure we are not taking on ACH credit risk. To avoid late tax payments, we recommend that employers on four-day processing periods minimize the use of all-manual payrolls, and when they are necessary fund them via wire.In the coming weeks we will be adding a `warnings` attribute to the Payroll object, which will be populated on four-day all-manual payrolls where there is a possibility of late tax payments. By watching this field you can determine when this case has occurred, and surface guidance to Employers on your platform accordingly.

We have released an extension to the payroll journal report that breaks down net pay, earnings, benefits, post-tax deductions, and taxes by workplace. This enables multi-location employers to understand how their different locations are contributing to total payroll costs, and is especially helpful for employees working across multiple workplaces in each pay period.Learn more about this report in our Help Center article and see our API documentation for more on integrating with this report.
