Monthly Product Update - May 2026

Negative deductions are now available in Miter! This means you can now reduce or reverse a deduction for a specific employee on a specific payroll — useful for correcting an over-deduction from a prior pay period and increasing an employee's take-home pay accordingly.

How to enter a negative deduction:

* Go to Pay > Payrolls and open the draft payroll you want to adjust.

* Find the employee in the payments list and click their row to open their payment details.

* In the left-side menu of the payment panel, click Overrides, then click New.

* Set the override type to Post-tax deduction (or Benefit, if adjusting a pre-tax benefit).

* Select the specific deduction you want to reduce from the dropdown.

* Enter the corresponding negative amount

Overrides can also be applied in bulk. The adjusted amounts will be reflected in the employee's net pay for that payroll run only. Read our guide here for more information.

Admins can now set a custom direct deposit descriptor per entity — the name that appears on team members' bank statements when they receive a direct deposit.

Previously, all direct deposits displayed regardless of the employer. Now you can brand it with your company name so employees see exactly who paid them. Find this setting under .

A new report is now available to track the status of managed child support payments from recent payrolls. You can see which payments have been submitted, whether they've been processed, and access trace IDs for each, giving your payroll team the visibility to quickly answer employee or agency inquiries without digging through external systems.

We've added several new certified payroll report formats to help you stay compliant.

* Generate CPRs in the A-1-31 format directly from Miter — no more manually reformatting data to meet the state's requirements.

* Export certified payroll data as an XML file for direct upload to the NY Department of Labor portal, eliminating the manual data entry that was previously required. Work classifications are pulled from the DOL's standardized list, configurable on each classification.

* Generate New York DAS-format certified payroll reports directly from Miter, a common requirement for public works projects in the state.

* A new Labor Compliance Management System export format for customers who submit certified payroll through LCMS portals.

Clicking "View paystub" on a payment now opens the paystub directly in the browser — no more downloading a PDF just to glance at your pay details. This applies to both the admin dashboard and the team portal.

You can now set daily maximum limits on fringe benefit contributions, with the flexibility to configure different limits by day of the week.

This is especially useful for prevailing wage jobs where fringe contributions need to be capped on a per-day basis. Daily and weekly maximums can coexist on a single fringe alongside existing monthly dollar maximums. When a cap is hit, a warning surfaces on the payroll with per-day and per-week detail.

The fringe configuration modal has also been redesigned for easier setup of calculation rules, contribution limits, eligibility, and accounting settings.

* In the table, you can now bulk assign "Team member home address" for employees' workplaces. This is ideal for companies with remote or distributed crews who need home-address-based tax withholding set up quickly.

* You can now deactivate workplaces directly from the Miter dashboard. Previously, outdated or unused workplaces cluttered your settings with no way to remove them. This is especially helpful for workplaces where your company is no longer doing business or has no team members.

Percent-based benefit contributions can now be configured to use classification rates for fringe offset calculations, instead of being limited to the team member's default rate.

Previously, fringe offsets for percentage-based contributions could only reference the team member's default rate, which can be lower than the applicable prevailing wage classification rate. This limited the amount of fringe credit an employer was able to claim.

A new setting in allows employers to calculate these contributions using the classification rate instead. Updated calculations are reflected in the Timesheet Contributions tab.

We've consolidated bank account management into a single, unified page. You can now view all company bank accounts under , set which account funds payroll, assign different GL accounts to different payroll bank accounts, and see ACH eligibility and account details at a glance.

This is especially valuable for multi-entity customers who use multiple bank accounts to fund payroll across their entities. The new setup also improves duplicate detection when adding bank accounts, reducing the risk of creating redundant records.

Bringing back a former employee? Miter now fully supports rehire-specific onboarding checklists, giving you control over exactly what a returning team member needs to complete.

* Configure each onboarding task for rehires: have them complete it fresh, re-verify previous information, or skip it entirely

* A new rehire wizard walks admins through building both employee and employer checklists

* Previous I-9s are automatically archived, with full history viewable from the work authorization section of team member details

Go to to configure your rehire setup.

Offer letter templates just got a lot more powerful. We've added new smart tokens for end date, employment type, work schedule, and exempt/non-exempt status, so your letters stay accurate without manual edits.

* New built-in tokens auto-populate key offer details directly from the job application

* Custom smart tokens let your recruiting team standardize offer letter personalization across all candidates

When a candidate is converted to a Miter team member, employment category, department, report-to, pay type, and pay rate now carry over automatically from the offer letter to their employee profile.

We've added a new default termination reason for team members who never completed onboarding. When someone is dismissed with this reason, they're automatically excluded from your turnover rate statistics and hidden in employment history reports, so a no-show hire doesn't skew retention metrics.

When an employee's E-Verify case comes back as a tentative nonconfirmation (e.g., their submitted information doesn't match government records), admins can now handle the entire resolution workflow directly in the Miter dashboard instead of contacting support.

* Download the Further Action Notice, then refer the employee to the SSA and/or DHS to correct their records

* Confirm whether the employee is taking action

* Close the case and create a new one

Admins will also now receive notifications for closed cases, tentative nonconfirmations, and final confirmations.

You can now define custom geofence boundaries for time tracking - not just circles around a point, but full polygon shapes that match the actual boundaries of your job sites.

You can now see the breakdown of hours across earning types (REG/OT/DOT etc) from the weekly timesheets view in the dashboard. Just click on the arrow icon next to the total hours to see a pop up with the week's hours broken out.

If you are a crew leader, when creating timesheets for employees, you should now see two tabs - one for your crew and for other employees. This should make it easier to create timesheets in bulk for your crews.

You can now view all scheduled assignments as a table instead of on the calendar or in a list. You can use this as an easy way to see assignments in bulk and export assignments to a CSV.

You can now import assignments via CSV, making it much easier to create assignments in bulk for companies with large field teams.

We've made a series of improvements to weekly timesheet PDF exports, making them more flexible, more readable, and easier to work with.

* Wide tables now automatically split into multiple sections when you select many columns, so no data gets lost at the edge of the page

* GPS verification, injury reporting, and actual drawn signature images are now available as columns in the export

* Multi-day pay periods now show subtotal rows after each day with total hours and unpaid break hours

* Total row numbers no longer wrap mid-digit, and empty columns are automatically omitted with a note in the footer

* Your last export selections (team members, jobs, columns) are saved so you don't have to reconfigure each time

Admins can now edit ledger entry line items directly in Miter, no more recoding timesheets upstream just to fix a GL dimension. Bulk edit GL account, department, location, and other fields right from the ledger page, just like you'd bulk edit team members. Edits are tracked with a full audit trail and respected by all accounting integration syncs (Intacct, Acumatica, QBO, NetSuite). Regenerating an entry resets manual edits, so your source-of-truth logic stays clean.

We also added three new GL granularity dimensions: timesheet custom fields, accrual date, and classification, giving you finer control over how your ledger entries break out.

Go to any payroll's or to start editing.

There's now a single page to browse audit logs across all object types at your company. Instead of hunting through individual team member records or settings pages to figure out who changed what, you can search, filter, and review all changes from one place.

Go to .

You can now manage your own Miter API access directly from the dashboard. Super admins can view and download API documentation, create and manage access tokens, and archive old keys, all without waiting on the Miter team. Enable the Miter API from the App Shop, then head to .

You may notice in this section, you can create two different tokens for each Miter API version. That is because we have actively moved over to a new model of the API, API v2! The new version features auto-generated documentation, improved validation, and new filters and field coverage. We're continuing to harden v2 toward full GA. If you're currently building on v1, reach out to support about migrating.
