In this release:
Any additions made to the final release notes after we published the draft release notes are highlighted in green.
This month’s release includes all updates and fixes developed between versions 31.4.1 and 31.4.22.
Some of you may already be using one of the later versions included in this release. You can check your current version by clicking the Jemini logo in the top right corner of your environment.
While several enhancements and fixes were originally developed to address customer-specific issues, we’ve applied them universally to make sure everyone benefits from a more consistent and improved experience.
We’ll apply these updates for you, so you can jump right in and start discovering the new features, enhancements, and fixes as soon as they’re released.
Version 31.4.20 - 31.4.22
Pay Reporting Enhancements
Update added after we published the draft release notes:
The Pay Calculation Summary and Employee Pay Calculation reports now have an ‘Add Is Cash Out’ column
You can find the new column next to the ‘Is Backpay’ column. We’ve also added it as a filter.
This enhancement enables you to separate the leave cash out from the leave taken.
(JEM-23742, JEM-23743)
We’ve created a selection of new pay reports and updated existing ones to cover longer periods of current and historical data
The reports with current data now cover the past 2 months, while the reports with historical data extend to the past 36 months. With these extra months of data, you'll be able to spot trends, reconcile pay more accurately, and create detailed reports that meet compliance needs.
NEW reports with current data covering the past 2 months:
Direct Credit Check Current
Pay Transaction Current
Pay Variance Current
NEW reports with historical data covering the past 36 months:
Direct Credit Check History
Employee Pay Costing Historical
Pay Transaction History
Pay Variance History
UPDATED reports with historical data covering the past 36 months:
Cost Centre Pay
Hours Worked Analysis (found in People > Reporting)
Note for system administrators: To give users access to these reports, you must add them to the relevant Security Profiles. Learn how in How to give users access to new reports.
(JEM-22894)
Business Reporting Enhancements
The Position Establishment vs Occupancy FTE report now has new columns to give you more options for reporting by organisation structure
On the ‘Position Establishments & Occupancies’ tab, you’ll now see extra columns for ‘Position Org Structure’, similar to the existing ‘Occupancy Org Structure’ columns. These columns are:
Position L1 Org Structure Component
Position L1 Org Structure Type
Position L2 Org Structure Component
Position L2 Org Structure Type
Position L3 Org Structure Component
Position L3 Org Structure Type
Position L4 Org Structure Component
Position L4 Org Structure Type
Position L5 Org Structure Component
Position L5 Org Structure Type
You can also filter the data by both sets of organisation structure levels in both tabs, making it easier to analyse full-time equivalent (FTE) data.

Backend Enhancements
Smoother, more reliable experience with enhanced performance monitoring
Increased monitoring of background tasks enables faster issue detection and resolution, helping keep Jemini running reliably for you.
(JEM-23449)
Fixes
What we fixed in Jem 31.4.20 - 31.4.21:
Employees can now view their payslips in the correct date order, from most recent to oldest (JEM-22197)
You can now add ongoing transactions without encountering system errors when the ‘Employee Specific’ toggle is set to YES in Payroll Transaction Configuration (JEM-23679)
The 'This Pay' column in Pay Mode now displays correct values when reversing leave events. Previously, it showed all zeros if some events lacked matching pay period transactions (JEM-23811)
Editing ongoing transactions now works as expected. This issue affected a single client-specific transaction (JEM-23851)
Version 31.4.18 - 31.4.19
Leave enhancements
When future-dated leave exists, Jemini now accounts for any leave that will accrue during that period in its balance calculations
Previously, Jemini only considered the leave balance at the start of the future leave event, rather than the balance at the end.
(JEM-22845)
Version 31.4.17
Fixes
What we fixed in Jem 31.4.17:
If an employee has leave requests scheduled on a previous payroll, they won’t carry over after switching payrolls. An error message now prompts you to cancel and re-enter those requests on the new payroll (JEM-23680)
We resolved a pay cycle error by correcting missing tax information for one employee so that the pay could calculate correctly. This was an isolated incident (JEM-23574)
Version 31.4.16
Fixes
What we fixed in Jem 31.4.16:
For Jemini Consultants: APIs now correctly import 'LeaveInAdvanceHours' during NZ payroll implementation (JEM-23513)
Version 31.4.15
Leave enhancements
You now have more control over setting end dates for leave plans when an employee changes countries
Previously, Jemini automatically set these end dates based on Country or Location changes. Now, administrators can manually set them if needed when an employee moves to a different country.
(JEM-22813)
Fixes
What we fixed in Jem 31.4.15:
Jemini is now faster when applying bulk leave plan updates, preventing timeouts for large employers (JEM-22416)
When you update a leave plan, it now only affects relevant leave events, as expected. In one isolated case, Jemini mistakenly deleted an unrelated leave event (JEM-23181)
When Leave Configuration is set to calculate the higher of ADP or RDP, Jemini now correctly calculates BAPS leave using this setting, rather than defaulting to the lower ADP rate (JEM-23391)
Version 31.4.14
Fixes
What we fixed in Jem 31.4.14:
Ongoing transactions now correctly save with the amounts you enter, instead of creating ongoing transactions with $0.00 values (JEM-23386)
Version 31.4.13
Fixes
What we fixed in Jem 31.4.13:
For transactions set up with ‘Extra Pay’ tax treatment, Jemini now correctly calculates PAYE using the applicable extra pay tax rate percentage, rather than the ESCT rate (JEM-23329)
Version 31.4.12
Fixes
What we fixed in Jem 31.4.12:
The NZ Tax Tables Bubble no longer times out, allowing you to upload new tax tables (JEM-23311)
Version 31.4.10 - 31.4.11
New Zealand Tax Changes – 2025
The way extra pay is calculated for employees being terminated has changed
Inland Revenue (IRD) has introduced a new method for taxing extra pay when an employee's employment ends. The key change is that the tax calculation will now be based on the PAYE income payments from the last two paid pay periods before the extra pay is given, instead of the previous four weeks.
To comply with the new IRD requirements, Jemini will:
Determine which pay transactions are a termination type transaction.
Base the tax calculation on the PAYE income payments from the last two paid pay periods.
Multiply the sum of these two pay periods with the relevant number (for example: 26 for weekly, 13 for fortnightly, 6 for monthly) to annualise the income.
No action is required from you. Jemini will automatically implement these changes to provide accurate and compliant tax calculations for terminating employees.
(JEM-22933)
Employee tax record creation for New Zealand end of tax year updates
On 31 March each year, Jemini will automatically create a new tax record for employees who get paid through a New Zealand payroll. It will recalculate the ‘ESCT Rate %’ and ‘Tax Rate on Extra Pay %’ for each employee based on the previous year’s earnings.
Jemini sets 'Tax Rate on Extra Pay %' to 'Use tax rate determined by system' by default so that it follows IRD guidelines for rate calculations, however you can override this if needed.
(JEM-22922)
Pay Enhancements
When an employee returns from parental leave, Jemini now calculates the annual leave rate based on the Average Weekly Earnings (AWE) for leave accrued before the start of parental leave
This enhancement aligns with the requirements of the NZ Parental Leave Act. If the application setting is ‘Greater of AWE/OWP’, Jemini uses the higher of AWE or Ordinary Weekly Pay (OWP). If set to AWE, Jemini checks the employee's leave balance and usage to determine the correct rate.
(JEM-22858)
Jemini now supports importing and entering pay transactions with rates and amounts that have more than two decimal places
This enhancement applies to both importing pay transactions and entering them in pay mode, allowing for precise rates to be accurately maintained without rounding.
(JEM-23026)
Pay Report Enhancements
The Leave Liability report now displays annual leave rates for all employees on the ‘Detail - Emp Leave Liability Calculation’ tab
For employees with annual leave, there are two columns: one for ‘Entitled Liability’ and one for ‘Accrued Liability’.
(JEM-22176)
We’ve updated the Leave Liability and Leave Balance reports to cater to Multiple Employments enhancements
Leave entitlements are now displayed at an employment level for each employment stream.
(JEM-22176)
Payslip Enhancement
The position of your company logo on payslips is now customisable
You can now choose to have your company logo on the top left or top right of payslips (default is top left). If you’d like us to add your logo to payslips, please raise an iHelp. There’s a $500 fee.
(JEM-22658)
Fixes
What we fixed in Jem 31.4.10 - 31.4.11:
We applied a data fix so you can now change Leave Type labels in People Core Tables without encountering system errors (JEM-22751)
When processing extra pay with cent amounts, Jemini now rounds to whole dollars before calculating PAYE, ensuring your tax calculations match IRD requirements exactly (JEM-23246)
We’ve adjusted the position of right-aligned logos on payslips so they now sit flush against the right edge, reducing excess white space around smaller logos (JEM-23290)
Performance notes now save reliably, with no cursor loss during typing or pauses (JEM-22752, JEM-23005, JEM-23131)
Salary and leave reversals now use the exact original amounts, eliminating rounding discrepancies and ensuring General Ledger (GL) entries balance (JEM-23224)
You can now accurately reconcile employee leave, with adjustments correctly shown in both Leave Insights and the Leave Balance Adjustments view (JEM-22757)
Employer Super and ESCT now calculate correctly for employees with multiple super funds that have different contribution setups (JEM-23180)
You can now access terminated employees in non-paying payrolls without errors. Jemini no longer incorrectly checks for leave payment eligibility in these cases (JEM-22862)

Fixes
What we fixed in Jem 31.4.9:
Payslips now download faster for larger employers whose employees previously experienced slow or unreliable access (JEM-22753)

Fixes

Jemini now pro-rates superannuation for employees who start mid-pay cycle, calculating contributions based on actual days worked (JEM-22791)
Version 31.4.7
Payslip Enhancement
We’ve updated the ‘Annual Salary’ label on downloaded payslips to ‘Actual Annual Salary’
This enhancement better reflects the value displayed on the payslip.

Fixes
What we fixed in Jem 31.4.7:

Performance notes now save reliably, with no cursor loss during typing or pauses (JEM-22752)
Version 31.4.6
Fixes
What we fixed in Jem 31.4.6:
Direct Credit (DC) files now display the correct processing date format. This issue only affected processing dates set to 31 December 2024 for customers using Westpac bank (JEM-22706)
Version 31.4.5
Fixes
What we fixed in Jem 31.4.5:
Consolidated pays now calculate correctly across all multiple employment streams. This issue was identified internally during testing and is unlikely to have affected customer environments (JEM-22671)
Net pay now matches between Pay Mode and the Direct Credit file for employees with multiple employments. This issue was caused by duplicated super and third-party payments, which is now fixed (JEM-22157)
Version 31.4.4
Holidays Enhancements
If you update a public holiday or business leave and Jemini can’t update related leave or pay, a pop-up error message will now alert you to the issue
Only the person who made the change will see the alert, which prompts them to contact the system administrator.
(JEM-22615)
Fixes
What we fixed in Jem 31.4.4:
You can now reverse terminations on main employment records within the Employment Manager without facing system errors (JEM-22614)

Fixes
What we fixed in Jem 31.4.3:
We’ve improved payroll stability by fixing errors that could occur when consolidating already-processed pays, reducing the risk of failed runs (JEM-22606)
Pay Mode is no longer blocked by system errors. This issue only affected a few employees and access is now fully restored (JEM-22211, JEM-22607)
