New release! Humanforce Cloud Workforce Management – Version 6.0.79

We're pleased to announce the release of Humanforce Workforce Management (Cloud) version 6.0.79, which brings meaningful improvements across rostering, shift-filling workflows, timesheet administration, payroll exports, and integration reliability. 

This release gives roster managers richer information when filling and offering shifts — including employee tenure and experience data — alongside tighter compliance controls for shift offers, a notable security improvement in Timesheet Admin, and a set of Integration Central enhancements covering a rebuilt timesheet import, a new pay type override import, and a reliability improvement for the WFM to Humanforce Payroll employee sync.

Release Schedule

  • Staging environments were updated on Thursday, 18th June, 2026.
  • All Humanforce WFM (Cloud) accounts and UAT environments will be automatically updated to version 6.0.79 overnight on Wednesday, 1st July, 2026.

Rostering & Templates

Tenure and FTE Experience for smarter Fill Shift selections

Management > Rostering > Roster Manager

Two new optional columns — Tenure and FTE Experience — are now available in the Fill Shift screen, giving roster managers additional context when deciding who to offer or assign a shift to.

  • The Tenure column shows how long each employee has been with the organisation, calculated from their start date and displayed in years and days. 
  • The FTE Experience column converts the employee's total hours worked across their history into a full-time equivalent figure — based on a 40-hour working week — making it easier to compare two employees who may have similar tenure but different levels of working experience.

Both columns are off by default and can be switched on through the column customisation menu. Each column is fully sortable, so you can quickly surface your most experienced or longest-serving available candidates at the top of the list to make more informed rostering decisions.

Reduce non-compliance with tighter permissions in the Fill Shift workflow

Management > Rostering > Roster Manager

The "Hide Employees" filter options in Fill Shift can now be locked ON by default whenever a rostering user opens the modal, to help reduce the possibility of rostering an employee who would violate scheduling rules — such as reaching maximum weekly hours. With the filters locked to the ON state, those employees remain excluded from the search results unless the user has permission to relax those filters.

A new permission, "Allow changes to Hide Employees filter in Fill Shift", is available as a child of the existing "Assign and Unassign" permission and is automatically enabled for users who already have the parent permission. To enforce the new restrictive behaviour, admins should remove this new child permission as required. This gives organisations the option of a safer default workflow while still allowing targeted override access where needed.

Improved notifications for Employees directly assigned from a shift bid

Management > Rostering > Roster Manager

We’ve strengthened the Fill Shift workflow so that when a roster manager assigns a shift to an employee who has placed a bid, the employee receives a confirmation notification in line with the Bid Manager experience. This provides a more consistent assignment process across workflows and helps ensure employees are kept informed when a shift is assigned to them. 

Fill Shift – Bid/Offer Time now visible when employee accepts a shift offer

Management > Rostering > Roster Manager

The Bid/Offer Time column in Fill Shift now populates the timestamp at which an employee accepted a shift offered via Roster Manager. Previously, this column could remain blank after an employee responded to an offer — their status would update to "Bid" as expected, but no time was recorded. Roster managers now have a reliable timestamp for every response, making it easier to prioritise candidates fairly and audit the offer process.

Roster Manager – Ensuring the alert notifications panel is accurate 

Management > Rostering > Roster Manager

Roster alert notifications now provide a clearer, more focused view by suppressing alerts that are outside the locations each user can access. This helps reduce unnecessary noise in the roster alerts panel, making it easier for managers to identify the alerts they can review and action with confidence throughout their session.

Clocking, Timesheets & Breaks

Adding breaks to Timesheets is faster than ever

Management > Timesheets > Timesheets

Unpaid breaks can now be added directly from the Timesheet Admin grid for timesheets that currently have no break recorded, avoiding the need to open the timesheet dialog.

Now the field is accessible inline and the new break is placed using existing break schedule logic, with all standard validation applied. For teams correcting timesheets in bulk, this removes a significant source of friction by reducing clicks and dialog load times.

Timesheet Admin – "All Pay Companies" filter scope behaviour

Management > Timesheets > Timesheets

The pay company filter in Timesheet Admin has been updated to apply user access permissions more consistently. When users select "All Pay Companies", results are now limited to the pay companies they are permitted to view - which is typically their assigned pay company unless they have the permission View Timesheet Authorisation Page > Allow access to all pay companies. 

This helps ensure timesheet visibility remains aligned with each manager’s configured access scope across both filtering and displayed data.

Timesheets displaying up to 200 records per page

Management > Timesheets > Timesheets

Timesheet Admin and the Daily Authorisation view now support displaying up to 200 timesheet records per page, in addition to the existing 50 and 100 options. For organisations managing high volumes of timesheets — particularly across large teams or multi-location environments — this reduces the amount of pagination required to review timesheet records.

Back Office to cloud migration

Payroll exports – InfinetCloud and GreenTree now available in WFM

Management > Timesheets > Payroll

Additional payroll exports for the below payroll systems can now be run directly from Humanforce WFM, following the configuration of your payroll company with the correct identifier and settings.

  • InfinetCloud Identifier: INFINETCLOUD
  • GreenTree Identifier: GREENTREE_CONFIG1

Integrations & Integration Central

Timesheet Import – rebuilt for significantly faster processing

Integration Central > File Imports

A new Timesheet Import is now available in Integration Central, built on Humanforce's latest platform architecture and delivering major performance improvements over the previous version. Large files that could previously take hours now complete substantially faster, with improved reliability and clearer error reporting. The import also offers more flexibility in how you identify employees and match existing timesheets, reducing import failures and giving you greater control over import behaviour.

Existing files used with the previous import will continue to work without any changes but we always recommend testing with a test file. The legacy version remains available as "Timesheet Data (Deprecated – use new version)" while you transition at your own pace. Contact Humanforce Support if you'd like assistance planning your migration. Help article is available here and will require you to login to view it.

Integration Central – Employee Pay Type Override Import now available

Integration Central > File Imports

A new Employee Pay Type Overrides Import is now available in Integration Central, enabling you to efficiently manage employee-specific pay type configurations at scale. The import supports creating new overrides, updating existing ones automatically (no action column required), and deleting obsolete records using a simple delete flag. Built on Humanforce's latest platform architecture, it processes large batches reliably with clear error reporting, and offers flexible employee identification options so you have complete control over employee-level pay rules without manual data entry.  Help article is available here and will require you to login to view it.

Humanforce Payroll Integration – Terminated Employee Status Preserved 

Employees with a "Terminated" status in Humanforce Payroll will no longer have that status changed as a result of integration sync updates, unless the employee is reactivated in the suite. Previously, when the WFM-to-HF Payroll employee sync ran for an employee who had a termination date in WFM, it could overwrite a manually-set "Terminated" status in HF Payroll with "Automatic" or "Manual" — causing those employees to appear reactivated in certain areas of HF Payroll and creating confusion for payroll administrators.
