Updates January 2026 - Release Notes

The following corrections and improvements were implemented with this AbaSalary update:

Corrections

• Employee wage statements for mid-year departures can now be finalized in the December processing cycle. (Previously, wage statements for mid-year departing employees had to be finalized in the personnel master.)

Improvements

• There is now an additional wage type "Offsetting meals (tax-free)" to the existing wage type "Offsetting meals". This wage type is intended for the billing of agogic meals in nursing homes, where a tax law special case applies.
• Caution: For agogic meals in daycare centers, the wage type "Offsetting meals" must still be used, as these are considered taxable.
• The wage types "Loan" and "Repayment of loan" can now adjust the designation for the payroll.
• All new calculation factors for the year 2026 are stored in the system (since the end of December). Please check the first payroll in the new year. Information on year-end processing can be found here.
• DeepMail can now be used in AbaSalary. This allows for secure and easy payroll distribution to employees.
