Architecture
Remove Inactive Timeout
The Inactive Timeout option has been removed from the Adaptive Setup screen. The timeout option is now set system wide at 15 minutes for AEE. The Multifactor Authentication period remains at 12 hours.
This means that users who are inactive while using AEE for more than 15 minutes will be signed off automatically.
Mobile App 12 Hour Authentication Change
When using Multifactor Authentication to log in, the user will have the option to keep the authentication good for 12 hours. Users will still have to sign in as they normally would, but can skip the Multifactor Authentication if it has been within 12 hours of their last log in. Note: Users do not want to use this feature on a shared device where someone else can access the device while the authentication is still valid.
Note: This is only for the mobile app at this time.
Time
Hide Inactive Clocks
Users now have the option to Hide Inactive Clocks when on the Manage Clocks screen. By default, only active clocks are shown on the list. In the upper left corner of the page, users now have an option to sort clocks by all, active and inactive.

Organizational Chart Updates
The functionality for viewing and moving around within the organization chart has been improved. The chart should now populate automatically based on the company setup. There has also been a pink help button added to the top right of the page to help users in the event their Organizational Chart is not populating as they expected. Note: Any “orphaned employees” who do not report to anyone, will not show up in the chart.
The copy chart feature has been temporarily removed and will be back in a release or two when the functionality has been fixed.
Learn and Grow
Assignments by Hire Date
Users can now choose to make assignments due based on the hire date of one or more employees. Users can choose:
- After hire date
- Before hire date
- Between hire dates
For example, a user can select multiple employees, select the “due date based on hire date” option, and set the due date interval. The system will automatically assign individual due dates for each employee based on their hire date.
The screenshot below shows the “between hire dates” screen layout. The users get an extra date to choose from so they can further refine the employees selected.
Screen Updates
Over the next few months, you will see that we are refreshing several screens, moving them to a more modern look using the new grid style that you have already seen on other newer screens. The overall functionality stays the same with some differences noted below.
This is an example of the new screen, where you can sort, filter, group, and view all pieces of information:
The screens that will be updated with this release:
- Client Management > Tables > Compensation Plans
- Updated Grid Layout
- Users can export data.
- Added filtering for each column.
