  1. New

    Put your expenses on an invoice

    • Costs you have already recorded, such as parking, tolls or a trip between sites, can now go straight onto an invoice instead of being retyped. Tick them while you build the invoice and each becomes its own line, with the date and the distance shown so the workplace can check it.
    • When you record a cost you now say what it is for: your own record to claim as a deduction, or a cost you recharge to a workplace. Only the ones marked for recharge appear when you build an invoice, so nothing gets billed by accident. Either way the cost stays in your expense record and your reports.
    • A cost can only go on one invoice. Once it has been billed, the expenses list shows which invoice it went on.
    • You choose how each rebilled cost is treated for GST. Sessional records your choice and does not decide it for you.
  2. New

    Send documents with a one-time code

    • Share chosen documents with a workplace using a link that expires after seven days, plus a six digit code you give them separately, for example over the phone. They enter their email address and the code to open it.
    • You can revoke a share at any time, or issue a fresh code without creating a new link.
    • The link alone is not enough to open anything, and repeated wrong attempts lock the share.
  3. New

    Add many shifts at once

    • Repeat one shift across several dates, or import a batch from a spreadsheet using a template you can download.
    • Every row is checked before anything is saved, and you see exactly which rows have a problem and why. A row that clashes with a booking you already have is reported rather than silently skipped.
  4. Fixed

    Shifts showed the wrong date in the calendar

    • A shift starting in the morning could appear in the calendar on the day before. The times were always right, which is why it was easy to miss. It affected the calendar, the availability grid, the earnings export and the shift date shown against an expense.
    • Nothing in your records was wrong, only what was displayed. No action is needed at your end.
  5. Fixed

    Sign-in links and verification emails

    • Magic link sign-in and email verification stopped working for a short period, reporting an invalid link. The cause was in how the link was written into the email, not in your account.
    • Both work again. Password sign-in was never affected.
  6. Improved

    Payroll tax and the 2026-27 figures

    • The state payroll tax positions were re-checked against each state's own legislation and revenue office. The ACT threshold and rate, the Northern Territory two-tier rate and the Tasmanian second tier were corrected, and the Western Australian position was rewritten: WA never adopted the relevant contract rules the eastern states use, so the reasoning that drove service fee changes there does not apply.
    • The 2026-27 figures are in across the app, including the ATO cents per kilometre rate of 91c and the concessional contributions cap of $32,500.
