Alphabetize Timesheets by First name in Prepare for Payroll
Work Item: TS-22840
Release Date: Oct 16, 2025
The Challenge
Previously, in Prepare for Payroll, timesheets were displayed in alphabetical order by first name. Recently, this functionality stopped working—the sort order is no longer alphabetical. This impacts payroll preparation workflows and user efficiency.
The Solution
We restored the sort functionality and ensured that orders Timesheets in Prepare for Payroll default to First Name A–Z.
How It Works
The fix reintroduces the sorting logic at the UI and backend level for employee lists in Prepare for Payroll.
Key Highlights
- Sort: First Name A–Z for all employee lists in Prepare for Payroll
- Impacted Areas: Prepare for Payroll → Employee list order.
Custom Field Can No Longer Be Deleted if Used in Timesheets
Work Item: TS-22853
Release Date: Oct 30, 2025
The Challenge
Account Owners could edit timesheets for employees, but after making edits, the time totals were not updating. This created inconsistencies in payroll calculations and required manual intervention to correct totals.
The Solution
We identified that the issue was caused by a Custom Field being deleted while it still contained data in active timecards. To prevent this from happening again Custom Fields can no longer be deleted if they are in use in any timesheet.
How It Works
The delete icon in Custom Fields is no longer present if a Custom Field is in use.
Key Highlights
- Root Cause: Deletion of a custom field used in timecards disrupted recalculation logic.
- Preventive Measure: Custom fields cannot be deleted if referenced in active timesheets.
- Impact: Ensures accurate time totals after edits and prevents similar issues in the future.
