Hello Indigo users,
And hello May! 🏞️ We’re back from the break after Worker's Day, celebrating the workers who keep everything moving, just like you. To kick off the month, we’re bringing you new enhancements to make your workflow smoother.
You're going to enjoy the new Task Management's assignment email and notification, along with four new shiny columns in the My Team and All Employees sections.
But don't worry, the fun isn't over yet 😉. We've also enhanced the filtering options within the Insights charts, allowing for more accurate data filtering and encouraging continuous improvements.
As always, more details below! ⬇️

🗄️ Task Management
When working in a team, it's crucial to stay on top of any changes in task assignments while keeping your mailbox as quiet as possible 🤫.
That's why, when assigning a task to yourself, a single comprehensive email ✉️ will be sent to the people involved. They'll be informed about the task's sole assignee, unassigned employees, or multiple assignees in one go. However, the Notification Centre will display only information specifically relevant to the user who receives the notification.
Prioritisation and efficient workload handling are also key to smooth task management. Thus, we've gone the extra mile by adding four new columns in the My Team and All Employees sections.
Pending Applicable Tasks: Count of all pending tasks involving an employee where the employee's action is not required, but they are still part of the task.
Overdue Applicable Tasks: Count of all tasks past their due date involving an employee where the employee's action is not required, but they are still part of the task.
Pending Assigned Tasks: Count of pending tasks assigned to an employee whose direct action is required.
Overdue Assigned Tasks: Count of overdue tasks assigned to the employee whose direct action is required.

Everyone will see a warning pop-up when creating a new Position History entry, if its effective date falls between the active entry's date and a future entry's date.
Seamlessly update the Position History's basic pay via API. The message 'Position History Migration is migrated. Please log out and log in again' is shown for successful updates.
The remark 'Employee has a basic pay change' only appears when there is an actual change in the employee's basic pay, as intended.
Email settings and the notes settings within the Task Management module have been removed from the All Task grid view to improve its overall clarity and usability.
🔮 Insights
When analysing data, the more you can change perspectives and focus on different aspects, the easier it becomes to identify trends and make tailored, informed choices 🤓. Therefore, we made it possible to filter your Insights charts by Company Name and Section too.
We also thought you would appreciate seeing more detailed figures in the Skills & Training dashboard, so the numbers are now displayed in full format (e.g., 4,012 instead of 4K).
💸 Payroll & Leave
Bank Of Valletta will stop supporting Pain 3 file formats in SEPA files and switch to Pain 9 ones as from 5th October 2025. While Pain 9 files will not be supported before that date, BOV has arranged for their clients to try out the new file format and make sure it works in advance until 15th June 2025.
