Flexipay 2.53 Release Report

We are pleased to announce the latest release of Flexipay: version 2.53!




This version of Flexipay introduces the following new features:

  1. Changes to Holiday pay

    Employees with Jobs using the Job breakdown module now have their holiday pay calculated individually, rather than as a whole.

  • Holiday pay rate calculation can now automatically exclude weeks with Statutory payments

There is now a new option to automatically exclude weeks that have a period of Statutory payment from the 52-week average for Holiday pay.

  • Default report save locations per user

A default save location for Reports when logged in as specific Users is now available

  • A warning that an EYU or earlier year FPS is required in Check payroll details reports

A new warning has been added to the Check payroll details report that warns that a final FPS has not been sent for the previous tax year for an Employee

  • Import into Archive via CSV support for adding records


    The Import CSV file to archive tool can now add Employee archive records that do not already exist

  • Suppress automatic backdating of CSP/SSP calculation changes where the PIW end date is a long time before the current period pay date


    Company sick pay and SSP are no longer automatically calculated if a period of sickness ended both more than 6 months ago and in the previous tax year
