Humanforce HR - August / September Product Wrap-Up
We've been busy improving key workflows and expanding platform flexibility to support the way your teams operate. From better contract visibility to smarter custom field management, this release is all about increasing clarity, control and efficiency across your HR processes.
Let's take a look at what we've released:
Contract Reject Reasons
We’ve added the ability to include a reason when rejecting a contract, making it easier to communicate what needs to be reviewed or why the contract won’t proceed. This helps streamline contract workflows and reduce unnecessary back-and-forth.
Job Custom Field Categories
You can now group your Job Custom Fields into categories, making the Jobs tab cleaner and easier to navigate, especially for teams managing a large volume of custom data. Categories behave just like those for Person and Remuneration fields, and can be created and edited in Settings > Custom Fields > Job.
New Qualifications UI Updates
Based on your feedback, we’ve made further enhancements to the Qualifications interface:
- Drag-and-drop document uploads have been reinstated
- Fewer clicks needed to submit qualifications
We're continuing to improve based on your input — keep sharing your feedback via Help & Support > Product Feedback.
Visibility of Superannuation Processing
For Australian customers using SuperAPI, you’ll now see a status indicator if super details are still processing. Plus, you’ll get earlier access to payroll-critical bank and tax info, even while super is being finalised, helping to reduce delays during onboarding.
New Email Log Status for Template Errors
A new Template Error status has been added to the Email Log to help identify issues with Event Notification configurations. This makes it easier to pinpoint and resolve template problems quickly, keeping your communications running smoothly.
Expanded Address Fields in Public API
We’ve added new address fields to better support international formats, including those used in New Zealand. These updates give API consumers more accurate and flexible address handling across the platform.
New fields include:
- Locality
- Sublocality
- Neighborhood
- Admin Level 1
- Admin Level 2
Coming Soon (Early Access): Qualification Approval Notifications
To reduce the risk of missed qualification approvals, we’re introducing a new Qualification Approval Required event type to the Event Notifications feature. Admin users with the appropriate permissions will be able to configure alerts when a qualification moves into an Awaiting Approval state, making it easier to stay on top of compliance requirements in regulated industries.
To request early access, please ask your System Admin to submit a support ticket.
