In 2025, Humanforce delivered major milestones in bringing Humanforce Back Office (also known as TimeTarget) - equivalent functionality into Cloud Workforce Management (WFM), ensuring customers can transition with confidence ahead of our Back Office deprecation date at the end of 2026. 

Core workflows, configuration tools and payroll processes have now been modernised, strengthened and consolidated in the cloud, giving organisations a faster, more intuitive and more reliable platform for workforce operations.

Back Office capabilities now available in Cloud WFM

Cloud WFM now includes fully supported versions of essential Back Office features, such as:

•    Event Rostering with labour groups and multi-day/multi-location planning

•    Shift Confirmation and Shift Consent with SMS/Push communication

•    Full roster alert configuration and Restrictive alert enforcement

•    Shift Type parity, including ordering, decimal precision and special condition filters

•    Cost Centre Mapping, now web-native and multi-level

•    Payrun exports for Rockfast, Smartly, Sybiz Visipay, PayGlobal and enhanced Chris21

•    Daily-level payroll interpretation for manual pay adjustments

•    Advanced timesheet management, including multi-level approval, daily  authorisation, split logic, locked-payrun handling, award/break accuracy and unified UTC audit timestamps

•    Qualification and Shift Definition management within Cloud

•    Enhanced Template Manager, supporting labour groups,  optimised processing and flexible template generation

•    Roster Manager parity, with bulk editing, bulk assignment, multi-day creation, leave reassignment logic, and reassignment of locked shifts

•    Clocking enhancements, including accurate break prompts and shift transfer reliability

•    Leave Management parity, including blackout-period flexibility and new insufficient-leave alerts

•    Roster & Timesheet charge-out reporting in Workforce Analytics

•    Modern bulk imports for timesheets, allowances, roles and role revisions

•    Employee data forwarding (HR → WFM → Payroll) for seamless onboarding and data integrity.

Migration timelines and how to get started

As communicated previously with all our Back Office customers, we are sunsetting key Back Office modules in a phased manner throughout 2026, commencing with Admin Screens in April. View our transition guide and details on our phased sunset plan.

Why transition now?

With these features now live and exceeding Back Office capability, organisations can confidently start moving their rostering, timesheet, payroll-prep and leave workflows into Cloud WFM well before the 2026 deadline.

Migrating today delivers:

•    Immediate access to improved performance, automation and compliance

•    Reduced operational risk from ageing legacy tools

•    A smoother change process, rather than a late, compressed transition

•    A future-ready WFM environment that continues to evolve

Humanforce strongly encourages all Back Office customers to begin transitioning today. 

Looking ahead to 2026

We look forward to continuing to bring you more ground-breaking innovations in the new year and assisting you in your transition to Humanforce Cloud Workforce Management.
