  ## [More flexibility for Form W-8/W-9](/changelog/2023-08-01-more-flexibility-for-form-w-8-w-9)

  Admins using the Unified Payroll and HRIS experience have more flexibility in requesting Form W-8/W-9 from contractors and vendors.

  ### Improvement

  * If the decision to collect tax Form W-8/W-9 was skipped during contractor onboarding, admins can later choose to request it
  * Admins can also request a new version of the form anytime

  ## [Payment request improvements](/changelog/2023-06-01-payment-request-improvements)

  We released several improvements to payment requests.

  ### Improvement

  You can set up a policy to require a pay period on payment requests. [Contact Support](https://mailto:support@plane.com) if you would like this enabled for your organization.

  Payment request fields can now be displayed on the Payments report.

  * You can choose to display *payment request ID*, *requested on date*, *description*, *invoice number*, *period start*, and *period end*
  * All fields are included when you download the report

  We also made it easier for contractors and vendors to identify the pay period associated with a payment request by adding it to the table listing.
