Dear SwissSalary Customers, dear SwissSalary Partners,
We are pleased to present to you the manual for the 50th SwissSalary update 5050.000. Your SwissSalary will be up to date after installing this release.
50th update? That sounds perhaps like an old software. 50 x new features developed and presented, 50 x innumerable customer requests implemented, 50 x the SwissSalary NAV wage module used in the newest Microsoft Dynamics NAV environment, many certifications have been passed (swissdec, Certified for Microsoft Dynamics NAV, etc.). That is not the end even after the 50th update! Every day, a motivated team currently consisting of 15 employees takes care about SwissSalary and other products like SwissSalary Direct (employee portal) and SwissSalary EasyRapport (time and activity recording).
We are very grateful to have such a dedicated team working with us that does more than their best every day. Of course, our special thanks go to more than 800 of our customers with thousands of payroll clients, and more than 70 SwissSalary partners in Switzerland and neighboring countries. You all give us motivation to continue developing great features for you even after the 50th update.
I can assure you that the 50th release is rich with new and great options.
Highlights
❑1. SwissSalary version for Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2016
In the meantime, Microsoft has brought the 9th version of NAV onto the market on October 5, 2015. We were able to witness its birth live during the Directions EMEA 2015 occasion in Mannheim. We did our 'homework' already, and with Update 5050.000 we can present to you the first SwissSalary version for NAV 2016. If you are interested in this modern, flexible and efficient ERP version, contact your NAV partner today for a possible upgrade to NAV 2016.
❑Net Pay correction
Requested by many customers, the automatic net wage compensation is available now. Very little setup data is needed, and SwissSalary has already taken care of automatic wage correction in daily allowance adjustments for you. Please be sure to check our instructions about legitimate application of net wage compensation.
❑ TimeMachine extension – now available in the Area of Wages
SwissSalary has achieved a further milestone with the integration of TimeMachine in the Area of Wages. Starting from Update 5049.000, TimeMachine is already successfully implemented for withholding tax calculation and retroactive WT rate corrections. It also serves now for storing wages on the timeline (retroactive calculation and for the new wages in the future).
❑ SwissSalary Store
The new SwissSalary Store, located under Organization menu item, shows whether your base master data like withholding tax rates, ZIP codes or bank master data, or even the update version are up-to-date. You can call up the respective updates and update your base data directly from the store. You must accept the GTC once to be allowed to use the Store.
❑ SwissSalary SmartPort
With the help of the new SwissSalary SmartPort we now offer the option to synchronize data between 2 systems (e.g. between an external HR system and SwissSalary, and between SwissSalary Direct and SwissSalary). The complicated and expensive interfaces are no longer necessary. The address and bank details changed by the employee online can now be synchronized in the area of SwissSalary Direct (SwissSalary Direct Plus).
❑SwissSalary Direct Plus
You print and send payslips and other documents by conventional mail? Would you like to save postage and a lot of time immediately, and offer your employees an ultra-modern self-service tool? SwissSalary Direct is the right choice, then! Many SwissSalary customers already send payslips to SwissSalary Direct. The employee must register once and voilà. Simply easy, comprehensive, contemporary. Following the launch of SwissSalary Direct Basis (save payslips and other documents in SwissSalary Direct – CHF 0.50/employee/month), we launched SwissSalary Direct Plus now. For additional CHF 0.25/employee/month, the employee can change their home address and/or bank details. Owing to SmartPort, this change has arrived into SwissSalary – you can decide whether you want to accept or reject it.
❑SwissSalary News
We want to be even closer and always inform you about new updates, important changes in social matters and taxation, as well as about events and trainings. For this purpose, we developed the SwissSalary News platform. With it integrated into SwissSalary Role Center, you can now view our current articles. You will not miss important news anymore and will stay informed. This service is exclusively available for customers using NAV 2009 SP1 RTC and later!
And there is even more to come. The 50th SwissSalary update has much more to offer. You can get more detailed information about all changes on the following pages.
Please make sure that version not older than 5049.000 dated September 30, 2014 was installed before this update process. If your partner has made company-specific changes to the SwissSalary NAV objects, you must contact your Microsoft Dynamics NAV partner BEFORE installation.
Information about the manual
Screenshots of individual tasks are primarily created for the newer, role-based versions of NAV 2009 SP1 RTC and later (Role Tailored Client). If there are deviations from the older Classic client, they are specifically mentioned in the manual.
Important notes
❑SwissSalary BAU customers with NAV 5.0
SwissSalary Update 5050.000 is the last full version for BAU 5.0. NO further developments are planned in BAU version 5. We kindly request you to migrate from NAV 2015 to the new NEVARIS solution as soon as possible. Many existing BAU customers already took this step this year, and have since worked with the platform NAV 2015. If you have additional questions about this topic please contact your NEVARIS support.
❑SwissSalary NAV customers with NAV DB versions 3.70, 4.00 + 4.00 SP1
SwissSalary Update 5050.000 is the last full version for these NAV DB versions. By September 2016, we will release more PreUpdates (5050.xxx) for these versions. Starting from October 2016, there will be updates for versions after NAV DB 4.00 SP2 only!
❑SwissSalary Role Center | RTC clients starting from NAV 2009 SP1
Since the introduction of the RTC Client, SwissSalary has been using a clearly arranged and intuitive Role Center. However, we have discovered time and again that some of our customers had not been using it. System Administrator Manual contains important information thereto.
We hope you will enjoy the latest version of SwissSalary!
Your SwissSalary Team
