Hello,

We've got a lot in store for you with today's Indigo update!

Do you have companies on your system that share the same name (but are under different PE numbers)? You can now create menu names for each company. This helps you know which company you are working with in Indigo.

The end of the year is fast approaching (can you believe it?). With that in mind, we have optimized some things to help your EOY work go much more smoothly. First, we have enhanced the display of the global leave write-off and pay-off tool. The enhancement presents employee and leave data in a cleaner and more uniform manner. Second, we are hard at work already to get your Indigo system ready for 2021 in light of the new budget measures announced by the Government on 19 October 2020. You can see how your Indigo system will be affected by the new budget measures in our blog.

Earlier this month, with the release of Indigo 1.81.0.0, we introduced Proximity, a feature that maintains your Scheduler for you. In today's updated, we've added the option to exclude shifts from being used with the Proximity feature.

Finally, SEPA files for the Bank of Cyprus (1bank) are now compatible with Indigo.

Please take a look at all the enhancement and improvements we have made to this update of your Indigo Suite of business solutions.

Enjoy!

Indigo Platform enhancements

  • Following the Government's 2021 budget measures, we have taken the initiative to upload your Indigo system with 2021 vacation leave entitlements and statutory bonus updates. The 2021 budget measures include an extra day of leave for full-timers This brings the total days of leave available in a year to 28. Come to the new year, your Indigo system will update with this new 2021 leave entitlement ready to allocate to your employees. Read more about how the 2021 budget measures affect Indigo on our blog.

  • You can now add a "menu name" for your companies in your system. Company menu names appears in the company selector dropdown menu to help you distinguish the different companies on your tenancy.

  • An issue where the save button in the Rewards or Penalties pages remained disabled after removing employee groups from rewards or penalties has been fixed. The save button is enabled after removing employee groups from rewards or penalties as expected.
