Improved handling of multiple payment requests

The table on the main Pay Contractors page was updated to enable admins to quickly access all pending payment requests.

Improvement

  • When a contractor has multiple payment requests available for review, the number is indicated to the right of the contractor’s name as a clickable element. For example, “2 requests available”.
  • Clicking this opens a modal window that displays the available requests by date.
  • From here, the user can navigate to the request they would like to pay.

Updates to the Contractor payments report

A couple of improvements were made to the Contractor payments report

Improvement

Column names were clarified

  • Amount collected refers to the amount that Pilot collected to process the payment. This amount is always in USD
  • Amount sent refers to the amount that Pilot sent to the contractor.
Note that the amount the contractor receives may be in a different currency depending on their bank account setup. Additional fees may also be charged by their bank.

Report downloads were improved

The CSV file format was updated to split amounts and currencies into different columns to make analysis in spreadsheets a lot easier.

Expense report revisions

It’s now much easier to resolve rejected expense reports. When an expense report is rejected by the approver, the requestor can simply revise it and then resubmit it.

Email notifications for hiring and onboarding

We added additional email notifications to the employee hiring and onboarding process to help streamline the process:

New

  • When all three tasks under the Approve compensation and estimated taxes milestone are ready, admins are notified that their approval is required.
  • When an employee has been invited to get set up on Pilot and hasn’t done so for 24 hours, they receive an email reminder.

Updates to contractor archiving

When a contractor is archived, the account owner is still able to access their Pilot profile in a read-only and restricted state and will see that their profile is archived.

Improvement

While they will be able to see historic data, such as past payment requests and expense reports, archived contractors will not be able to submit new payment requests or new expense reports, or create other new documents.Learn more: How to terminate an agreement with a contractor

Improved profile switcher

The profile switcher allows users to access all of their Pilot accounts across organizations regardless of role.
