Australia-specific release notes – special edition (Jem 33)

Prev Next

Important

This is a draft version of the 33.2.0 release notes. We'll keep adding to them over the coming weeks as testing is completed, so check back for the latest updates.

These release notes are specific to the Jem 33.0.0-33.2.0 Australian payroll releases. We’ve separated them from our general release notes so you can easily find what’s relevant to you.



Version 33.2.0


What's new in Pay

Pay Management Enhancements

Jemini shows a warning when an employee reaches the maximum super contributions cap

The warning appears in both Pay Mode and Payroll Management pay calculations, so you can see when the cap has limited an employee's super guarantee for the period.

(JEM-25871)

You can now delete one-off system transactions that you add in employee Pay Mode

If you manually pick a system transaction from the "add transaction" picker, you can now delete it if you change your mind. Jemini still protects ongoing system transactions from deletion to prevent payroll errors.

(JEM-26347)

Set the payment up as a direct dollar amount with STP leave type P reporting, enter the Centrelink value in Pay Mode, and it reports correctly under STP Phase 2.

(JEM-26380)

Jemini applies the right super rules for pay runs that span the 1 July 2026 Payday Super cutover

For fortnightly or other non-monthly pay cycles where the pay period straddles 30 June and 1 July 2026, Jemini uses the pay date rather than the pay period start date to decide which super rules apply. Qualifying Earnings are included in STP reporting when employees are paid on or after 1 July, even if the pay period started earlier.

(JEM-26445)

Payday Super

Jemini supports Australia's Payday Super changes that take effect from 1 July 2026

From your first pay date on or after 1 July 2026, Jemini calculates super on Qualifying Earnings rather than Ordinary Times Earnings, applies the annual Maximum Contribution Base, and reports Qualifying Earnings to the ATO using STP type code Q. You can record an Employer Shortfall Exemption Certificate on an employee's super fund to set their SG to zero, and generate SAFFE files for selected employees rather than everyone. Pay dates before 1 July 2026 keep using the current rules, and Jemini switches over automatically.

(JEM-26310, JEM-26311, JEM-26312, JEM-26313, JEM-26314, JEM-26315, JEM-26316, JEM-26332, JEM-26333)


What's new in People

Termination Enhancements

Deceased employee terminations use their own adhoc pay cycle for final payments

When you terminate an employee with a deceased cessation reason, Jemini creates a separate adhoc pay cycle for their final payments, including outstanding wages, leave entitlements, and any prorated ongoing payments. This keeps them isolated from your standard pay runs for STP reporting.

(JEM-26296, JEM-26317)

Jemini taxes death-related employment termination payments according to ATO rules

Death benefit ETPs apply the right tax treatment for each ATO code (N, B, D, and T), withholding at zero where required. Where there isn't enough information to determine the ATO treatment for a deceased termination, the payment withholds at zero tax.

(JEM-25203, JEM-26300)

You can rehire a terminated employee after their final pay has been paid

Once an employee's termination payment is paid, the Rehire button on their employment card reactivates the employment and adds a new employment stream on the same Jemini ID. Keeping the same employee ID and ABN consolidates their year-to-date STP values and avoids duplicate payee identifier errors.

(JEM-26258)

When processing a termination, Jemini now asks you to confirm if the payment date is scheduled after the termination date

Australian Long Service Leave legislation has strict payment deadlines that vary by state. If the auto-populated payment date falls outside your state's allowed window, you'll see a confirmation showing both dates so you can review before proceeding.

(JEM-26342)


What's fixed

Customer-raised

Pay

  • HELP debt transactions no longer apply withholding tax to termination payments. Tax on termination payments is now only calculated in the original termination transaction (JEM-26349)

  • You can now select terminated employees when generating an ATO Update Event for YTD corrections. The employee lookup previously excluded terminated employees and was truncated at surnames starting with "H" (JEM-26387)

  • Termination payments for Working Holiday Makers now apply the correct ATO Schedule 15 tax rates, instead of the termination tax rates used for residents (JEM-26452)

People

  • You can now add Australian tax details after transferring an employee from a New Zealand payroll to an Australian payroll (JEM-26250)

Found through internal testing

Pay

  • Employees with the ATO-Defined tax category and a Downward Variation now have PAYG withheld at the ATO-issued varied rate. Selecting this combination in Pay Mode previously showed an error and withheld no tax (JEM-23966)

  • Salary now calculates as $0 when an employee is on unpaid leave for the whole pay period. Monthly and quarterly pays previously still showed a salary amount even though no hours were worked (JEM-25249)

  • Pay mode no longer crashes when you try to access it for employees in payrolls where the direct credit date matches the pay date (JEM-26264)

  • ETP transactions now appear when you add transactions to a pay after termination pay cycle (JEM-26352)

  • Adding an Employment Termination Payment (ETP) transaction after termination no longer displays unsuitable error messages about pay period dates (JEM-26353)

  • You can now add transactions after termination without hitting an error, even when the termination pay cycle has already been paid (JEM-26368)

  • Pay Mode no longer gets blocked by system errors when calculating pays with commission or bonus payments that have been taxed (JEM-26378)

  • Single Touch Payroll now reports the actual payment date for Employment Termination Payments paid after the termination date, rather than the original termination date (JEM-26388)

  • Bonus tax capped at the highest marginal rate now rounds correctly to the nearest dollar instead of returning fractional cents (JEM-26405)

  • AU Additional Pay Tax now correctly shows as $0.00 on deceased employee termination payments instead of calculating PAYG withholding on bonuses and lump sums (JEM-26415)

  • Public holidays dated after an employee's termination date are no longer paid on Australian terminations (JEM-26429)

  • Long Service Leave calculations at termination now use the correct hourly rate for employees whose ordinary pay flows through salary, hourly pay rate, and standard leave transactions. Previously, the LSL Total accumulator wasn't receiving values from these transactions, which caused $0 LSL hourly rates (JEM-26435)

  • STP file submission to the ATO now succeeds when your employee's per-pay Super Guarantee amount doesn't divide cleanly to the cent. Jemini now compares values at cent precision, matching what's actually paid to the super fund and reported in the STP file (JEM-26446)

  • Termination payment tax on unused leave now rounds correctly to the nearest dollar. The calculation previously rounded down before applying the tax rate, which produced incorrect withholding amounts (JEM-26457)

  • Single Touch Payroll now includes the STP Q tuple for a pay period that ends on the first day of a new financial year, and its value now carries into the following period's year-to-date totals (JEM-26475)

  • Terminated employees who were previously rehired now appear correctly in ATO Update Event files. The Employee Backpack also opens without errors when you select a rehired employee's card (JEM-26477)

  • Terminated AU employees with a termination transaction can now be opened and updated without a system error (JEM-26460, JEM-26478)

  • Leave loading now stays in sync with annual leave when a public holiday falls during the leave period. Jemini previously paid leave loading for public holiday days even when those days weren't taken as annual leave (JEM-26508)

  • Fringe Benefit transactions now appear correctly in your STP file (JEM-26470, JEM-26492)

API

  • Creating or updating positions using the REST API no longer fails when a WGEA position level code matches multiple setup records (JEM-25794)

Super Fund

  • The superfund API endpoint now returns a clear error message when you provide an invalid country value instead of throwing a server error (JEM-25801)

  • Updating an employee's superannuation record using the API now saves changes to the SGC exemption certificate field correctly (JEM-26504)



Version 33.1.1


What's new in Pay

Fringe Benefits Enhancements

Fringe benefits are now reported in the correct Australian Financial Year in STP files

When you generate STP reports, fringe benefit transactions now appear in the right financial year. The FBT year (April-March) is correctly mapped to the Australian Financial Year (July-June) that follows. For example, fringe benefits from the FBT year April 2024 to March 2025 now appear in STP files for the financial year July 2025 to June 2026.

(JEM-24333)


What's fixed

Customer-raised

Pay

  • Monthly PAYG tax now calculates correctly for employees whose monthly salary includes cents. Tax was previously $4 too low when the monthly salary ended in .33 or .67 cents (JEM-26376)

  • Processing terminations for Australian employees no longer blocks with system errors when saving termination details (JEM-26379)

Leave

  • You can now configure whether public holidays are paid when employees are on annual leave, personal leave, compassionate leave, or parental leave. This setting is available on each leave plan and prevents leave balances from being over-deducted when public holidays fall during leave (JEM-26386)

Found through internal testing

Pay

  • The Pre 1 July 1983 tax rule fields now fill in automatically when you terminate an employee through the Occupancy Stream (JEM-26273)

  • The Payer Total Gross Payments value in STP files now shows only the taxable amount, excluding tax-free ETP components (JEM-26290)

  • Superannuation now calculates correctly on termination payments. ETP S payments are excluded from ordinary time earnings, and leave payments on death-related terminations attract superannuation where required under ATO rules (JEM-26299)

  • STP files now include pay-after-termination transactions for terminated employees, such as final adjustments and ETPs, so they're reported to the ATO (JEM-26325)

  • Pay calculations no longer crash when processing terminated employees who don't have tax details covering their termination date (JEM-26335)

  • Termination pay calculations now correctly handle PAYG withholding when an employee's date of birth is missing. Previously, Jemini would calculate PAYG tax on the severance amount but report it as salary and wages tax in the STP file without any matching gross or ETP income, causing ATO reconciliation failures (JEM-26367)



Version 33.1.0


What's new in Pay

Employee Termination Pay Enhancements

Split Employee Termination Payments (ETP) across multiple instalments

You can now process ETPs paid in more than one instalment within the same financial year. This also covers scenarios where a second ETP is made after 12 months, with or without a legal exception, and compensation payments for unfair dismissal after termination.

(JEM-23668, JEM-23669, JEM-23670, JEM-23673, JEM-23674, JEM-23676, JEM-23678, JEM-23827, JEM-25014, JEM-25015)

Jemini now processes multiple Employment Termination Payments for a single employee within the same pay run

This means Jemini correctly applies tax caps and concessional rates when an employee receives split or mixed ETP payments across different financial years or payment periods.

(JEM-26011)

We've simplified the tax treatment options for Employee Termination Payments

The new ETP S and ETP P methods replace the four outdated options (Lump Sum A tax, ETP Cap Only, ETP Cap/Whole of income cap comparison, and Marginal tax).

(JEM-25982)

We've improved the code behind Employment Termination Payment (ETP) tax calculations

This behind-the-scenes change makes the code easier to maintain and doesn't affect how ETP payments are calculated for you.

(JEM-26261)

Tax Scale Enhancements

Australian tax file uploads now support Preservation Age and Pension Age as dedicated file types in the Tax Scales screen

When uploading Australian tax tables, you can now select Preservation Age and Pension Age as separate file types. This makes it clearer which tax data you're working with and displays the uploaded data correctly in the tax tables panel.

(JEM-26077)


What's new in People

Leave Enhancements

Jemini now calculates Long Service Leave pay rates for all Australian states

Each state has its own rules for how LSL hourly rates are calculated. Jemini now applies these automatically, including NSW's 5-year comparison (where LSL is paid at the higher of the current rate or the 5-year average) and NT's 30% loading factor.

When an employee terminates before reaching their full LSL entitlement, Jemini calculates pro-rata payouts using each state's required method – "Years And Months Only" for NSW and ACT, or "Completed Years Only" / "Exact Service Duration" for the remaining states.

To support this, we've added new fields to the leave plan configuration screen:

  • Pro rata calculation method – a dropdown replacing the old yes/no toggle, with three options: Pay Accrued Balance, Completed Years Only, and Completed Years and Months

  • Leap year anniversary date – choose whether entitlements roll to 28 February or 1 March in non-leap years

  • Termination Reason core table now has a "Pays Out Pro Rata?" toggle for Australian termination reasons, so you can control which reasons qualify for pro-rata LSL payouts

(JEM-25425, JEM-25426, JEM-25427, JEM-25431, JEM-26161, JEM-26165)

Termination Enhancements

Initiated By and Termination Pay Date fields now show for non-paying payroll employees

When you're terminating an employee with a non-paying payroll, you'll now see the Initiated By and Termination Pay Date fields on the termination panel. The Termination Pay Date field remains optional for non-paying payrolls, but you can record it if needed.

(JEM-26236)


What else is new

API (Application Programming Interface)

Manage STP income stream classifications through the API

For Australian employees, the API now supports retrieving, creating, and updating STP income stream records. This lets external systems integrate with Jemini for all nine ATO income stream classifications, including Salary and Wages, Working Holiday Makers, Foreign Employment Income, and Labour-Hire.

(JEM-24417)

Import historical earnings data through the API for Long Service Leave calculations

When setting up LSL for employees migrating from another payroll system, import up to 5 years of historical hourly rates and total earnings via the REST API. Jemini automatically includes this data in LSL calculations, so employees receive accurate LSL payments from day one.

(JEM-26117)


What's fixed

Found through internal testing

Leave

  • VIC Long Service Leave accrual balances now calculate correctly at sub-entitlement check dates (JEM-26070)

  • NSW Long Service Leave now correctly requires a valid termination reason before paying pro-rata LSL for employees with 5-10 years of service (JEM-26274)

Pay

  • SAFFE file generation no longer crashes when an employee has no primary phone number (JEM-26074)

  • STP termination payment reports now show the correct ETP amounts. The taxable component was previously doubled (JEM-26184)

  • Employment Termination Payment tax-free calculations now apply correctly for standard (non-invalidity) terminations (JEM-26194)

  • Pay Mode now loads correctly for Australian employees instead of failing with an error (JEM-26235)

  • When you submit pay events to the ATO, you'll now see error messages if the lodgement fails instead of the panel closing without any notification (JEM-25349)

  • Employee terminations now save the STP cessation code correctly so pay calculations complete without errors (JEM-26228)

  • Adding an AU employee to a super fund now creates the mandatory superannuation guarantee contribution transaction as expected (JEM-26253)

  • For In Lieu of Notice termination payments, the Number of Weeks now shows the weeks entered at termination instead of 0, both in Pay mode and on the payslip (JEM-26280)

  • The Variables section in Pay mode now shows the correct fields for fringe benefit transactions. You'll see the transaction's start and end dates, and the leave hours and base hourly rate that don't apply no longer appear (JEM-26284)

Payslip

  • An employee's final payslip now shows a zero leave balance once they're terminated, instead of still showing the balance that was paid out (JEM-26263)

Tax

  • Uploading RFBA tax rates files no longer fails with an error when you save the data (JEM-26219)

  • Employee terminations no longer show an error when you fill in service duration days without completing the days worked before and after 1 July 1983 fields (JEM-26146)



Version 33.0.4


What’s new in People

Termination Enhancements

Initiated By and Termination Pay Date fields now show for non-paying payroll employees on the termination panel

When you're terminating an employee with a non-paying payroll, you'll now see the Initiated By and Termination Pay Date fields. The Termination Pay Date field remains optional for non-paying payrolls, but you can now record it if needed.

(JEM-26236)



Version 33.0.3 - N/A



Version 33.0.2 - N/A



Version 33.0.1


What’s new in People

Superannuation

You can now enter larger superannuation contribution amounts for employee super funds

Fixed value fields for additional contributions and salary sacrifice accept amounts up to $999,999.99.

(JEM-23877)

Superannuation contribution rates now support up to four decimal places

Previously, contribution rates were limited to two decimal places. You can now specify precise rates like 9.5275% for employer and employee contributions, and they'll calculate and display accurately across payroll processing and payslips.

(JEM-26002)



Version 33.0.0


What’s new in Pay

Pay enhancements

Superannuation contributions cap at the Maximum Super Contribution Base each quarter

When an employee's ordinary time earnings exceed $62,500 in a quarter, Jemini caps the super guarantee at $7,500 for that quarter. The cap applies on a quarterly basis, so super calculates at the normal 12% rate until the threshold is reached, then stops. This works for mid-quarter starters and terminations too.

(JEM-25388)

Redundancy termination payments are tracked separately for STP reporting

When you process a termination with redundancy payments (ETP R), Jemini categorises these separately from other termination types. Your STP reporting to the ATO will show the right split between tax-free and taxable components.

(JEM-24998)

Tax-free components for Employee Termination Payments

Jemini calculates tax-free portions for termination payments that include invalidity or pre-1983 service components. The invalidity segment is calculated first based on the employee's days to retirement, and the pre-1983 component uses what's left. This follows ATO ordering rules for tax-free ETP segments.

(JEM-24972, JEM-24969)

Upload AU Tax Table files incrementally for the same effective date

If you need to add different types of tax table data (like Protected Earnings or Super Data) for the same date, you can upload them separately. Previously, you had to delete all existing data for that date and re-upload everything together.

(JEM-25402)

Jemini now handles ETP payments that include both excluded and non-excluded components paid within the same financial year

The ETP cap applies to excluded payments like genuine redundancy, and the lesser of the ETP cap or whole-of-income cap applies to non-excluded payments like gratuity and payments in lieu of notice. Jemini reports each with the correct ETP code in your STP submission.

(JEM-23675)

Jemini now calculates severance payments for employees made redundant under the NES

The calculation excludes casual employment periods and unpaid leave to determine the employee's completed years of qualifying service. Jemini then looks up the correct entitlement from the NES redundancy pay table and multiplies it by the employee's weekly base rate.

(JEM-23788)

Reportable Fringe Benefit Amounts

Enter fringe benefit amounts directly in Pay Mode

A new Fringe Benefit Amount field lets you record the reportable fringe benefit value for an employee during pay processing. Once saved, Jemini calculates the grossed-up value automatically using ATO rates.

(JEM-25416)

Reportable Fringe Benefit calculations use the correct gross-up rates for Type 1 and Type 2 benefits

Jemini applies the higher gross-up rate (2.0802) for Type 1 benefits and the lower rate (1.8868) for Type 2 benefits. These calculations feed into your payment summary reporting, so there's no need to work out grossed-up amounts manually.

(JEM-24722)

Jemini calculates Reportable Fringe Benefit Amounts for STP reporting

When you record fringe benefit amounts for employees, Jemini applies the correct ATO gross-up rates and works out the reportable value. Benefits under the $2,000 threshold are automatically excluded from STP reporting. The grossed-up RFBA flows through to your STP submissions so the ATO receives the right figures.

(JEM-22573, JEM-22593, JEM-22599)

Employees with multiple benefit packages get the right RFBA calculation

If an employee receives fringe benefits across more than one package — or has a mix of Type 1 and Type 2 benefits — Jemini handles each package separately and applies the correct gross-up rate to each one. This also works for employees who move between exempt and taxable employer status during the FBT year.

(JEM-22608, JEM-22609)

Fringe benefits are reported correctly after an employee leaves

When an employee is terminated partway through the FBT year, Jemini still includes their fringe benefit amounts in STP reporting. Benefits recorded before and after the termination date are picked up, so nothing falls through the cracks at reporting time.

(JEM-24332, JEM-24333)

Gross-up rates can be updated when ATO rates change

You can update the Type 1 and Type 2 gross-up rates in Jemini when the ATO publishes new values. If rates change during an FBT year, Jemini applies the correct rate based on when the benefit was provided, so your RFBA calculations stay accurate across rate changes.

(JEM-24335, JEM-24336)

Upload fringe benefit amounts in bulk

Rather than entering fringe benefit amounts one employee at a time, you can upload them in bulk using the standard data upload process. This is handy at the end of the FBT year when you need to load benefit data for multiple employees at once.

(JEM-24365)

Jemini picks up fringe benefits added to ongoing transactions retrospectively

If fringe benefit amounts are recorded against transactions that were already processed in earlier pay periods, Jemini detects these and includes them in the next RFBA calculation. You don't need to go back and reprocess old pays.

(JEM-24380)

The correct gross-up type applies based on whether GST credits were claimed

Jemini determines whether each fringe benefit should use the Type 1 (higher) or Type 2 (lower) gross-up rate based on whether the employer claimed GST credits on the benefit. This distinction matters because it affects the reportable amount that appears on your STP submissions.

(JEM-24381)


What's new in People

Leave enhancements

Leave loading automatically reverses when you reverse annual leave

When you reverse annual leave that had leave loading applied, Jemini automatically reverses the leave loading amount too, using the original percentage.

(JEM-25274, JEM-25275)

Long Service Leave accumulators now use generic Australian names

The Long Service Leave accumulator names have been updated from Western Australia-specific labels to generic Australian labels. This reflects that the accumulators apply across Australian states, not just WA.

(JEM-25424)

Import historical service records when setting up Long Service Leave

When you're setting up Long Service Leave in Jemini, you can bring in existing service duration records from your previous payroll system or manual records. This keeps your employees' full service history intact so their LSL entitlements calculate correctly from the start.

(JEM-24678)

Long Service Leave plans are now available for all Australian states and territories

You can set up and attach state-specific Long Service Leave plans for Victoria, New South Wales, Queensland, South Australia, Northern Territory, Tasmania, and the ACT. Each plan is configured according to the relevant state legislation, so entitlement rules and qualifying periods match your employees' jurisdiction.

(JEM-25327, JEM-25328, JEM-25329, JEM-25330, JEM-25331, JEM-25332, JEM-25333)

Termination enhancements

Jemini calculates Employee Termination Payments for Australian employees

When you terminate an employee, Jemini works out the correct ETP amounts based on the termination type. For genuine redundancies, it calculates the tax-free component using National Employment Standards and applies the right caps based on the employee's age. Voluntary terminations generate ETP O payments with whole-of-income cap checks. Notice period (PILON) calculations are included, along with compensation payments for resignation. Where an ETP has both excluded and non-excluded components, Jemini processes and reports them together in the same pay.

(JEM-24357, JEM-23493, JEM-23495, JEM-23518, JEM-23547, JEM-23573, JEM-23576, JEM-23602, JEM-23605, JEM-23609, JEM-23781, JEM-23782, JEM-23812, JEM-23814, JEM-23828, JEM-24969, JEM-24972, JEM-24998)

The termination screen guides you through the right fields for each termination type

When you select a cessation code, Jemini shows only the ETP transaction types that apply and prompts for the relevant details. Ill-health terminations ask for retirement date and employment duration. Employees with a commencement date before 1 July 1983 get additional fields for pre-July 1983 service. Deceased employees have their fields configured automatically. You can also flag whether an employee is re-employable, and choose termination reasons from a backpack selector in the updated People Core Tables.

(JEM-24357, JEM-23555, JEM-23882, JEM-23886, JEM-23888, JEM-23890, JEM-23893, JEM-23896, JEM-23897, JEM-23900, JEM-23901, JEM-23902, JEM-24075, JEM-24076, JEM-24100, JEM-24789, JEM-24826, JEM-25023)

Leave balances pay out automatically when you terminate an employee

For both voluntary and redundancy terminations, Jemini automatically includes any remaining leave entitlements in the final pay. You don't need to manually add leave payout transactions.

(JEM-24357, JEM-23498, JEM-23991)

We've simplified the termination form for Australian employees

We removed the 'Include business leave entitlements in final pay' field because it doesn't apply to Australian payroll. The notification date field now sits alongside the termination date, so related dates are grouped together.

(JEM-25023)


What's new in Business

WGEA reporting

NEW: Workplace Profile Report

The Workplace Profile Report gives you a ready-to-submit snapshot of your workforce composition and remuneration data. You'll find it in the Reporting section of the People bubble. You choose a snapshot date before generating. Jemini then checks your data and flags any gaps before you extract the file. The report exports as an Excel file in the WGEA Unit Level Template format. If your organisation has multiple ABNs, you can filter the report by ABN.

To support accurate reporting, we’ve made a number of changes across Jemini:

Positions Catalogue

Position cards now include a country field: New Zealand or Australia. For Australian positions, Position Code and Position Level are mandatory. For New Zealand, they're optional. The catalogue has new filters for Position Code, Position Function, and Position Level. When both NZ and AU positions exist, Jemini groups the cards into country accordions.

Position Code uses a two-step selector: first pick the code type (OSCA for Australia or NOL for New Zealand), then select the specific code. Australia moved from ANZSCO to OSCA (Occupational Standard Classification for Australia) 4-digit codes in 2024.

Position Level and Gender classification

Position Level and Gender, both set up in earlier releases, feed directly into this report. Position Level drives the Manager Category column, and Gender uses WGEA-standard codes (F, M, X, and O). Employees who haven't disclosed their gender are excluded from the report.

WGEA accumulators

Four new WGEA accumulators let you tag transactions for reporting: Base Salary, One-Time Transaction, OTE (Fixed), and Ongoing Transaction. Jemini pre-assigns the Base Salary accumulator to your standard payroll transactions. You can add the others to any transactions that make up an employee's remuneration.

Bulk upload

The employee upload template now includes Position Code and Position Level fields so you can populate these in bulk.

The report includes the following data per employee: Employee ID, Employing ABN, Occupational Category (OSCA/NOL code), Manager Category (Position Level), Gender, Graduate/Apprentice status, Employment Status, Employment Type, Postcode, Base Salary (annualised FTE), and Total Remuneration (annualised FTE).

(JEM-14521, JEM-14522, JEM-16880, JEM-16881, JEM-16885, JEM-24319, JEM-24388, JEM-24393, JEM-24396, JEM-24398, JEM-24399, JEM-24400, JEM-24401, JEM-24402, JEM-24403, JEM-24405, JEM-24406, JEM-24419, JEM-24425, JEM-24430, JEM-24432, JEM-24433, JEM-24435, JEM-24463, JEM-24464, JEM-24465, JEM-24466, JEM-24477)

NEW: Workforce Management Statistics Report

The Workforce Management Statistics Report tracks employee movements across a 12-month period and is formatted for direct upload to the WGEA portal. You'll find it in the Reporting section of the People bubble. The reporting period runs from 1 April to 31 March and can't be changed. If your organisation has more than one ABN, you need to run a separate report per ABN.

The report counts nine workforce metrics across the reporting period:

  • Employees promoted

  • Employees promoted from non-manager to manager

  • Employees internally appointed

  • Employees externally appointed

  • Employees who voluntarily resigned (retirement is excluded)

  • Employees on primary carer's parental leave (paid)

  • Employees on primary carer's parental leave (unpaid)

  • Employees on secondary carer's parental leave

  • Employees who ceased employment before returning from parental leave

The report uses the Reason for Change field from an earlier release. This field records why an occupation changed (External Appointment, Internal Appointment, Promotion, or Other) and maps each reason to the correct WGEA category.

What else is new

API enhancements

You can now retrieve employee superannuation fund records via the REST API

The new GET endpoint at /employees/{jeminiId}/superfund lets you check if an employee has an active superfund record before creating a new one. This works the same way as the existing KiwiSaver GET endpoint, with optional filters for employment occupancy and point-in-time date queries.

Position API now supports WGEA reporting data

We've added new fields to the existing Position API endpoints so you can submit workplace gender equality data through the API for Australian positions.

System performance enhancements

The termination benefits and payments screen now loads faster

We've improved how Jemini retrieves termination information, so the screen opens more quickly when you access an employee's termination details.

We've improved monitoring for STP lodgement responses so we can catch and fix issues faster

Our operations team now gets automatic alerts when there's a problem retrieving responses from the ATO, so we can resolve issues before they affect your payroll processing.

What's fixed

Customer-raised

Pay

  • Superannuation now caps correctly at the $62,500 quarterly Maximum Super Contribution Base when a single pay exceeds that amount. The cap wasn't applied when one pay period's OTE went over the quarterly limit, which meant super was calculated on the full amount instead of the capped amount (JEM-25407)

  • Termination leave payout amounts no longer produce a rounding error that blocks pay calculation (JEM-25148)

Leave

  • Leave loading now applies correctly when managers approve their own annual leave (JEM-25561)

  • Long Service Leave no longer pays out on termination when the employee hasn't met the minimum service requirement (JEM-25149)

Terminations

  • STP files now include year-to-date amounts from before termination when you rehire an employee on the same Jemini ID within the same financial year (JEM-26118)
