Deel's Weekly Changelog

New features

US Payroll: Self-activate payroll for new US entities

You can now self-activate US Payroll directly from the Deel platform after creating a new US entity. Just follow the purple banner prompt to launch the setup flow and unlock access to the Payroll Implementation Tracker—no manual intervention required.

Next steps: After creating a US entity, then click the purple banner.

US Payroll: Download detailed GL reports for bookkeeping

Clients can now generate and download General Ledger (GL) Reports summarizing payroll transactions by account—streamlining reconciliation and reporting workflows.

Next steps: Access the GL report from your US Payroll dashboard under Reports.

Platform: Update background check logic for new CDD flow

Background check eligibility now adapts to your compliance configuration. If you're using the new CDD flow, eligibility is based on entity status—not outdated flags.

Next steps: Confirm if the "New CDD" flag is active in [Org Settings](https://app.deel.com/settings/organization-settings > Overview, and update eligibility criteria accordingly.

Global HRIS: Prevent self-assignment in I-9 flow

To ensure compliance, workers can no longer list themselves as their own I-9 representative. The platform now enforces distinct user roles during document submission.

Next steps: Review I-9 workflows in onboarding settings to ensure authorized reps are properly designated.

Contractors: Mass-cancel approvals without notifying workers

You can now bulk-cancel pending approvals—like work submissions or expenses—without triggering notifications. A simple way to clear out stale requests.

Next steps: Go to the Payments or Work Submissions section to select and cancel multiple requests in bulk.

Workflow Adjustments

Global HRIS: Show breaks in Time Tracking Summary reports

You can now add up to 15 optional break-time columns in Time Tracking Summary reports—providing better visibility into shift duration and compliance.

Next steps: Toggle on break columns in the Time Tracking Summary report settings.

Global HRIS: Smarter org chart logic and visibility improvements

We’ve improved how worker data appears in org charts and search results:

• Future-dated contracts are no longer marked as “Primary” by default
• Terminated, rejected, or canceled contracts won’t appear as “Primary” unless no valid contracts exist
• Workers with future start dates now show as upcoming direct reports
• Org chart search now shows only active and upcoming workers

Next steps: Review yourorg charts , filters, and worker profiles to confirm accurate primary contracts and team views.

Global HRIS: Add policy risk flag to time off requests

Time off requests now display a warning when they may conflict with internal policy rules—helping approvers flag risks before approving.

Next steps: Review flagged time off requests directly in the approval flow and take action as needed.

Global HRIS: Smarter insights and filters for Time Off tracking

We’ve added new ways to analyze and manage time off:

• Filter your calendar by specific time off policies
• Group time off by department or location to identify staffing gaps
• View how each request was submitted (e.g., Slack, mobile, or web) to track usage patterns

Next steps:

• Refine your Time Off calendar using policy filters
• Use Time Off reports to group by team or region
• Review request sources in the time off request details panel

Integrations
