Other improvements and fixes
- Optional W-8/W-9 collection for contractors: W-8/W-9 collection is now optional in the new contractor onboarding flow, for customers who prefer to collect these forms outside of Plane.
- COBRA and termination reminders for U.S. employees: Terminating a U.S. employee now shows a reminder that Plane doesn’t notify the employee on your behalf. When the employee has active health benefits, a second callout flags the employer’s COBRA continuation-coverage obligation.
- New expense reimbursement categories: Healthcare, Wellness, Coworking, Software, and Hardware are available as reimbursement categories.
- Easier accounting reconciliation for Plane subscriptions: Subscription journal entries for monthly plans continue to post to the end of the period; annual subscriptions now post to the invoice date. Both memos reference the invoice number.
- Benefit changes sync to payroll preview again: We fixed a bug that delayed the sync of benefit changes to the payroll preview. Syncing is back to near real-time.
