Product updates

The Check API now provides an earning type called `tip_credit_adjustment_to_minimum_wage` to allow you to enter in wages for tip credit workflows properly. Tip credit payroll items can be entered into the Check API using this new earning type and the accompanying `tip_credit_amount` field. Note that `cash_tip` and `paycheck_tip` should be used in conjunction with this earning type if an employee's cash_wage is below the state's typical minimum wage.

Check’s sandbox environment now provides a mechanism to incur and cause failed payments. Using designated company and employee names, you can simulate payrolls transitioning into a failed payment state. This will allow you to test NSFs, employee closed bank accounts, or a combination of both.

Learn more about testing failure scenarios in Sandbox here.

Contractors are now able to split their pay into multiple bank accounts. This feature is available in Onboard, Console, and the Check API. Contractors can allocate amount-based net pay splits across up to 7 accounts, providing them with more control over how they get paid.

You can now emit an ‘app-close’ event whenever onClose is called in Embedded Onboard. Previously, only the `X` button in Embedded Onboard would fire the `app-close` event. Now, clicking the Embedded Onboard modal background will fire this event as well. This fix is part of our continuous process of improving and providing more visibility into the state of our systems.

See our guide to learn more about Onboard.
