Bridge VMS Product Updates - February 29, 2024

Tax rules enhancements

We've revamped our tax functionality to offer greater flexibility and control. Now, you can easily calculate tax against different objects in the system, not just the total cost. For instance, you can calculate tax on specific elements such as MSP fee, agency fee, total supplier cost or total client cost, based on your unique requirements. You can also set rules where a different tax rule may apply to a specific agency, category or qualification. Our intuitive tax modal, accessible from the Employer menu, allows you to configure various combinations effortlessly. Additionally, you have the flexibility to make individual placements tax exempt or adjust tax rates for specific placements as needed, via the adjust rates & taxes option on a placement.

Workflow rules enhancements

We’ve implemented further enhancements to our workflow rules for timesheet approval. You can now create user groups and configure automatic timesheet approver selection options within the workflow rule modal. Introducing the ability to designate 'emergency timesheet' approvers, who have the authority to override the timesheet approval flow when necessary. These emergency approvers remain hidden on the job and timesheet interfaces, but possess the capability to swiftly approve and intervene if required. Learn how to configure these enhancements by referring to our detailed guide here: How to configure workflow rules on a client profile.
