Sage People Mirny Release Update and Absence Calculator Changes

Sage People has announced details of the new Mirny release which was installed in customer sandboxes in August. FYI the production release will happen in early September and includes the following functionality:

• Further enhanced performance management
• Hiring manager portal expansion
• Internal communication templates
• Storage of absence balances in standard fields
• Wave App (pilot)
• Further enhancements and bug fixes

For more information on these features check out this presentation by the Head of Product Development.

They have also announced that they will be deprecating an old absence feature set with this release. You may remember in the Victoria release last year September they released several absence enhancements, including the ability to change the order holiday is deducted (from TOIL, carry over, and accrual) and support for carry over with expiry greater than 12 months. To do so, a new absence calculator was built that could be switched on by customers. Now this new calculator will be switched on automatically for all customers in the Mirny release. FYI it is backwards compatible, so you should see no impact, but it is still important to validate in this sandbox release.
