Payroll Journal with Workplace Breakdown
We have released an extension to the payroll journal report that breaks down net pay, earnings, benefits, post-tax deductions, and taxes by workplace. This enables multi-location employers to understand how their different locations are contributing to total payroll costs, and is especially helpful for employees working across multiple workplaces in each pay period.Learn more about this report in our Help Center article and see our API documentation for more on integrating with this report.

Upcoming Warnings for Potential for Late Tax Payments for All Manual 4-Day Payrolls
Normally payrolls on a four-day processing period must be approved by 8pm ET four business days prior to payday. However, we make an exception for payrolls that contain only payroll items with a manual payment method. For example, if an employer forgets to run payroll, they can set the payment method for each item on the payroll to manual, approve it all the way up to and including on payday, and then pay employees with cash or paper checks.While useful to employers, it’s important to note that in these situations Check cannot guarantee that all tax payments will be made on time if the payroll is funded via ACH. We must wait three business days after payday before making any tax payments triggered by these payrolls, regardless of when the tax payments are due, to ensure we are not taking on ACH credit risk. To avoid late tax payments, we recommend that employers on four-day processing periods minimize the use of all-manual payrolls, and when they are necessary fund them via wire.In the coming weeks we will be adding a `warnings` attribute to the Payroll object, which will be populated on four-day all-manual payrolls where there is a possibility of late tax payments. By watching this field you can determine when this case has occurred, and surface guidance to Employers on your platform accordingly.

API Throttle Limits Update
Starting March 4th, Check will update our default throttle policy in the live production environment from 10,000 requests/hour to 25 requests/second. This rate limit update to the throttle durations is aimed at reducing the severity in hitting rate limits and aims to improve Check API performance overall. The new throttle policy is already active and successfully running without issue across all partners in Sandbox. We have backtested your API usage over the past two months and do not expect this change to impact access. However we recommend you review your own API usage metrics to confirm. Learn more about how to handle rate limits and best practices.
