Added the ability to delay the tax locator process when you run the HR Import or make employee updates using the RESTful API. Previously, you could prevent the tax locator from running when you ran the HR Import. Now, you can also delay the tax locator process.

Default: The tax locator processes changes caused by HR imports or Employee API updates immediately.
Defer (HR Import 2 and RESTful API Only): The tax locator processes changes caused by HR imports or Employee API updates after they are completed.
Disable: The tax locator doesn’t process any changes caused by HR imports or Employee API updates.

HR Import 1.0 and Data Mapping 1.0 have been retired as of Dayforce Release 2025.1.0. All customers using the old version have been migrated to the new HR Import 2.0 and Data Mapping 2.0 functionality.

In addition, the “Deprecated and Moved Entities and Tokens” section was added to the HR Import Interface Specification document to indicate which entities and tokens are no longer supported now that all customers are using HR Import 2.0. See the HR Import Interface Specification document on the Help Portal.

For information about how 2.0 differs from 1.0, see the HR Import 2.0 and Data Mapping 2.0 Guide on the Help Portal.

Re-introduced improved security of system notifications that are sent to employees when their personal information is updated. This update was removed in a previous version of Dayforce.

Previously, the Personal Information Change notification was sent to subscribed users when changes were made to any of the following details in the employee’s record:

• Name
• Address
• Marital Status
• Birth date
• SIN/SSN/National ID number
• Phone number
• Email address
• Direct deposit information

Now, the Personal Information Change notification only triggers when changes are made to an employee’s name, address, SSN/SIN/National ID Number, or birth date. The other changes have been moved to the following new notifications:

Contact Information Change: Sent when changes are made to an employee’s phone numbers, email addresses, or online profiles.
Direct Deposit Change: Sent when changes are made to an employee’s account type, routing number (or equivalent), account number (or equivalent), deposit type or amount values, or effective dates.
Security Information Change: Sent when changes are made to an employee’s Dayforce password, PIN, or security questions.

In addition, users can’t subscribe to the Personal Change Notification anymore, nor can they subscribe to any of the new notifications. Instead, these notifications are sent only to the employee affected by the change, thereby helping to ensure that employee information and details stay private.
