Assignar Pay Product Release – May 25, 2026
TL;DR
- Forms that match the job site: Capture exact locations with a geospatial field, review every submission on a map, and let calculated fields do the hours, materials, and cost math for you.
- Invoicing and tax without workarounds: Multiple tax rates per invoice, invoice numbers starting at 1 for cleaner onboarding, and more dependable line math through the billing flow.
- Payroll reviews that read faster: Timesheet Summary now surfaces leave type, and aggregate pay rates help you roll up pay the way finance actually reports it.
- Tidier vendor lists: Filter archived suppliers and restore them when you need that history back in play.
- Reliability you feel every week: Stronger invoices (units, subtotals, clearing taxes), accurate multi‑worker docket totals, smarter reprocessing, smoother mobile navigation, and ongoing performance and security hardening.
Context
The week doubled down on field forms (location + map + calculations), billing and payroll clarity (taxes, numbering, summaries, pay‑rate rollups), supplier housekeeping, and a solid batch of invoice and mobile fixes so office and site teams spend less time reconciling and more time building.
Themes from the week
- Forms & fieldwork: Geospatial capture and a map view of responses for faster triage and site verification; calculated fields for totals without spreadsheet side quests.
- Billing & payroll: Multiple tax rates on invoices; simpler default invoice numbering; leave visible in Timesheet Summary; aggregate pay rates for cleaner reporting.
- Operations: Archived supplier filtering and restore so procurement data stays organized without losing history.
- Quality & polish: Invoice reliability (quantities, subtotals, tax clearing), correct totals on multi‑worker docket invoices, reprocessing that skips already reviewed work, better overflow menus on mobile, and under‑the‑hood stability for faster, safer releases.
These weekly summaries are indexed for Assignar Pay Support so guidance stays aligned with what actually shipped.
What's new
Geospatial field and map view for forms
Pin answers to real coordinates on the job — safety walks, plant inspections, delivery confirmations, or punch‑list photos — then zoom out to a map of every submission instead of scrolling row by row.
What it does:
- Captures exact site locations inside your form definitions
- Surfaces all responses on a map for faster issue triage and verification against the site plan
- Reduces “which bay / which level?” back‑and‑forth between field and office
Where you'll find it: Team Forms — geospatial field type and map view for submissions (see product documentation for Geospatial and Views if you need a refresher).
Who benefits: Foremen and HSE leads logging site conditions, project engineers confirming work happened where scheduled, and PMs closing out QA without chasing screenshots in email.
Calculated fields in forms
Stop re‑keying totals in Excel after every docket or plant checklist. Calculated fields roll up hours, quantities, materials, or costs inside the form so the number your approver sees is the number payroll and job costing inherit.
What it does:
- Auto‑calculates derived values from other field inputs
- Cuts manual arithmetic errors on busy shift ends
- Keeps one source of truth from site capture through approval
Where you'll find it: Form builder — add a calculated field alongside your existing field types.
Who benefits: Payroll admins validating hours bundles, cost controllers tracking burn against allowances, and anyone tired of fat‑fingered spreadsheet formulas.
Multiple tax rates on invoices
Complex tax stacks — layered jurisdictions, mixed taxable lines, or client‑specific rules — no longer need brittle manual splits outside Assignar Pay.
What it does:
- Lets you model more than one tax rate on a single invoice where the business rules require it
- Reduces rework before send and fewer client disputes on tax lines
Where you'll find it: Invoice creation and editing in your usual financial management / invoicing flows.
Who benefits: Construction finance, AR leads, and owners who operate across regions or contract types.
Invoice numbering starts at 1
New accounts and fresh sequences get a clean default: invoice numbers start at 1 so your first live bill does not look like you skipped a decade of history.
What it does:
- Simplifies onboarding for finance teams and auditors
- Makes training and handovers easier (“we started numbering when we went live on Pay”)
Who benefits: Controllers standardizing numbering policy and anyone onboarding a new entity mid‑year.
Leave type in Timesheet Summary
Payroll review screens now call out leave type directly in Timesheet Summary so you can separate ordinary time, leave without guesswork, and project‑billable time in one pass.
What it does:
- Surfaces leave classification at a glance during pay run prep
- Speeds exception handling before export to payroll or the union report pack
Who benefits: Payroll admins, EBA stewards, and PMs who need to prove leave was coded correctly against the job.
Aggregate pay rates
Roll pay up the way your SOV, cost report, or union return expects — aggregate pay rates summarize by the dimensions that matter to your business instead of forcing every export through a pivot table.
What it does:
- Summarizes pay components for clearer reporting to finance and operations
- Cuts post‑processing time when leadership asks for a crew‑ or project‑level view
Who benefits: Payroll leads, job cost accountants, and executives reviewing margin with pay baked in.
Archived supplier filtering and restore
Keep the active supplier list tight while archived records stay searchable. Filter archived suppliers when you need history, and restore when that vendor is back on the approved list.
What it does:
- Reduces clutter in day‑to‑day procurement picks
- Preserves audit history without deleting rows
Where you'll find it: Supplier / vendor management in your workspace (filtering and restore on archived records).
Who benefits: Procurement coordinators, AP clerks, and project admins who rotate vendors by phase or region.
Invoice, docket, and reprocessing fixes
Invoices now preserve unit quantities, avoid unintended subtotal resets, and allow clearing taxes when you need a clean slate. Multi‑worker docket invoices carry accurate totals. Reprocessing is smarter about skipping items already reviewed so you do not undo human judgment.
Who benefits: Billing teams closing month‑end, PMs approving docket bundles, and anyone who has lost an hour to “why did this line zero out?”
Mobile navigation and platform polish
Overflow menus behave better on small screens — fewer dead ends when navigation stacks up on a phone at the gate. Behind the scenes, stability and deployment improvements keep releases smooth, with ongoing performance and security investment.
Who benefits: Supervisors living on mobile, IT partners watching uptime, and security‑minded owners.
Why it matters for construction teams
- Faster field‑to‑office loops: Map views and geospatial answers replace “send me a pin” chats — verification happens on the map, not in a thread.
- Fewer payroll and billing errors: Calculated fields, leave in summaries, and aggregate pay rates reduce spreadsheet glue between site capture and pay run.
- Cleaner statutory and client billing: Multiple tax rates and dependable invoice math mean fewer credit notes and faster sign‑off on progress claims tied to SOVs and EBAs.
- Supplier hygiene without losing history: Archive noise, restore when the job calls that subcontractor back, and keep procurement aligned with real project phases.
- Trust in the numbers: Docket totals, unit quantities, and smarter reprocessing protect margin reviews and audit packs.
Getting started
- Forms (geospatial, map, calculated): Open Forms in your team workspace — add a geospatial field, open the map view for submissions, and configure calculated fields in the form builder. Product docs cover Geospatial, Calculated field, and Views under team features if you want step‑by‑step detail.
- Invoices (taxes, numbering): Create or edit an invoice to set multiple tax rates where applicable; confirm your number sequence if you are a new account expecting numbering from 1.
- Timesheet Summary: Open Timesheet Summary for the pay period and scan the leave type column before export or approval.
- Pay rates: Use aggregate pay rates in reporting where your role has access — align dimensions with how your finance pack is structured.
- Suppliers: In supplier management, use archived filters and restore when a vendor returns to active status.
