Benefits Guidance Update: Identity Theft Insurance Benefit Type Added ★ Notable Feature

With this update, Benefits Guidance will be able to provide employees with personalized guidance on identity theft benefit plans. To support this functionality, a new Benefit Category assignment has been added. System administrators will need to assign the appropriate benefit category to each applicable System Benefit Type so that the Plan Detail tab is enabled, and plans integrate correctly with Benefits Guidance. The Identity Theft benefit type will show in the Benefit Guidance questionnaire and recommendation, with a “Recommended” tag if applicable.

OBBB: System Updates for TTOC Reporting Requirements ★ Notable Feature

isolved People Cloud now includes support for the IRS's upcoming Treasury Tipped Occupational Code (TTOC) reporting requirements, effective for Year-End 2026.

New system enhancements make it easy to assign and manage IRS-defined TTOC codes for tipped employees. Codes can be maintained at the job or employee level, and job-level defaults automatically populate when employees are assigned to positions. During year-end processing, isolved handles the reporting logic and includes up to two TTOC codes on employee W-2 forms.

These updates help streamline compliance while minimizing manual effort for employers with tipped workers.

Check the University release documentation for the necessary setup steps.

A new Year End Designation is also available to route qualified voluntary tip earnings to both W-2 Box 7 and Box 12 Code TP. System admins will need to configure the appropriate tip earnings designation before year-end processing begins.

Advanced Accruals in Report Writer: Balance Summary Sub-Report Type ★ Notable Feature

The Balance Summary report is the first of a new family of Advanced Accruals report types available directly inside isolved Report Writer. For the first time, clients can build their own accrual balance reports — choosing the columns, filters, sorting, and grouping they need — instead of relying on fixed screens or manual exports.

Because the report runs on demand through the Advanced Accruals engine, the balances it returns reflect the same real-time values shown on the live accrual screens. There is no overnight batch to wait for, and no separate data extract to reconcile.

See isolved University for additional information on running this report.

Special Section: Advanced Accruals & Time Off Request Cancellations

Final release (3 of 3) — now available to all environments

2 items
Advanced Accruals ★ Notable Feature

We're excited to introduce Advanced Accruals — a new capability in isolved that keeps employees' accrual balances accurate in real time. Until now, balances only updated when payroll ran, which meant gaps whenever a client's pay schedule didn't line up with calendar dates, fiscal years, or hire anniversaries. Advanced Accruals changes that: balances reflect awards and time taken as they happen, so what employees and managers see is always current.

With Advanced Accruals, clients gain far more flexibility in how time is earned. Award accruals hourly, daily, per pay period, monthly, quarterly, or annually — tied to a specific date or an employee's anniversary — and set precise limits, carryover rules, and eligibility so the right employees are automatically placed on the right plan.

Advanced Accruals will work well for clients with more complex plans that current accrual options do not support. Clients whose existing accrual plans meet their needs do not need to switch; their plans will continue to work exactly as they do today.

Want to learn more? Detailed setup and how-to guidance is available in isolved University, with upcoming webinars and step-by-step videos to help your team get up and running.

Time Off Request Cancellations ★ Notable Feature

isolved is introducing a Time Off Cancellation feature that lets employees request to cancel an approved, future-dated absence — with a workflow for the request to be routed to their manager for approval or rejection. Importantly, this feature stands on its own: clients do not need Advanced Accruals to use it.

Employees have two paths to start a cancellation:

  • In Employee Workspace, a Cancel button appears on eligible approved future-dated absences in the Upcoming section of My Time Off (BETA).
  • In Core, employees can also initiate a cancellation directly from the Time Card or the Employee Calendar.

For clients, this removes a common friction point: employees no longer need to email HR or submit a manual correction to unwind a future absence, and managers keep full control through the standard approval flow.
