QuickBooks integration Push payroll journals to QuickBooks after each payrun, send approved expenses across as bills, and send contractor invoices as bills so finance reconciliation runs from Zelt into the general ledger without manual export, re-formatting, or re-entry. Suits teams whose payroll closes in Zelt but whose month-end still ties up in QuickBooks. Read more about the integration here.

Rules for Review cycles - Visibility, Branching, and Weighting A new Rules step in review cycle setup. Decide which questions or sections appear to which reviewers based on earlier answers, branch between question paths conditionally, and weight question scores so the final result reflects what matters most. Suits manager reviews that mix role-specific and company-wide content, 360s where reviewer type should change the questionnaire, and cycles where a few competencies carry more weight than others.

Branching in Surveys Show or hide survey questions based on earlier answers in the same survey. Useful for branching pulse surveys - a "yes" to "did you take leave this quarter?" opens a follow-up on reasons, a "no" skips it - or for keeping each respondent only on the questions relevant to them.
Absence
Custom fields as policy rule criteria Build absence policy eligibility rules using custom fields on the profile. Make a sabbatical policy available only to employees in a specific "Tenure band" custom field, or route a role-specific policy using a custom "Function" field - without maintaining separate policy groups for every combination.
Reports
Date range in People Insights Pick any custom date range in People Insights, so admins compare headcount, attrition, or demographic shifts across any period rather than only the preset windows.
Attendance Dashboard overhaul An expanded set of filters for the Attendance Dashboard covering shift, tag, site, and employee, with date range selection and grouped charts for comparison across periods. Price values on the dashboard match what's shown in Timesheets, so cost views reconcile between the two without extra arithmetic.
