Last month’s updates were designed for the teams managing complex, real-world payroll workflows. From faster, cleaner correction paths (voids, reissues, and reversals) to support for nuanced situations like negative deductions, these enhancements give admins more control with far fewer workarounds.
We’ve also doubled down on quarter-end clarity, adding smarter alerts and refined reconciliation tools, plus expanded pre-filtering across reports to make day-to-day analysis smoother. Let’s take a look at what’s new.
Streamline corrections with a faster, simpler void and reissue workflow. Admins can now void a payment and reissue it in just a few clicks: choose the payment method, pick the check date, and let the system handle the rest. This process eliminates the need for a special payroll run, effectively streamlining the process for fixing payment issues without disrupting your cycle.
In October, Greenshades enhanced the 941 page to serve as a true quarter-end command center. Now, you can take advantage of even more features that improve transparency and simplify reconciliation during quarterly tax review. This month’s update introduces smarter alerts, including warnings for missing SUTA rates, and makes it easy to run recalculations when liability differences appear. You can also download a polished three-tab Excel file for 941, SUTA, and FUTA — giving you all your key quarter-end details in one place.
Enter negative deductions directly in the Payroll Wizard — eliminating the need for separate adjustment runs. This is especially helpful for reimbursements, such as returned uniform fees. The system prevents year-to-date deductions from dropping below zero to avoid invalid entries. For benefits tied to deductions (such as employer 401(k) contributions), calculations still follow the deduction logic while blocking negative totals, keeping results accurate.
Improve consistency and accuracy across payroll reporting with expanded pre-filtering and performance enhancements. Greenshades has extended Employee ID, Department, Position, and Location pre-filters to additional payroll reports, streamlining routine reporting tasks and helping admins get to the right data faster.
Align your GL uploads with your accounting structure by preserving the original mapping order. When enabled, Greenshades will maintain your file’s sequence exactly as provided, so everything lines up with your internal or client accounting layouts. This offers clearer alignment, reduces the need for manual re-sorting, and makes reconciliations easier.
