Popay Docs eBulletin migration 2
- ZIP batch uploadthe last legacy eBulletin functions move to Popay Docs, including the ZIP upload method, a batch of PDFs together with a metadata file. Find it in the configuration menu under Document queue. With this migration complete, eBulletin is decommissioned in the coming months.
- Revalidate instead of re-uploadgaps in your Core HR data, a missing national ID for instance, can stop a document being mapped on the first attempt. The Revalidate documents tab in Document queue lets you retry those documents without uploading the whole batch again.
Learn Training programmes 1
- Counting starts at the programme start dateadministrators set a start date per programme, and only courses completed on or after that date count towards completion. A programme starting 01/01/2026 counts a training from 2026 onwards. You decide which trainings are relevant for each programme, and from when.

We are in the final stage of validating the Workforce Management module in the production environment, testing every scenario and transaction. Go-live is expected shortly after the summer.
- Organisation hierarchy rebuiltdesignate managers, HR business partners, training coordinators and department heads at organisational level, and link them to specific departments and teams. This replaces the legacy approach with a more flexible way to map reporting relationships, and is one of the last major components before go-live.
- Employee listthe hard row limit is gone, so the full employee population is visible, including recent hires.
- National IDhelp text in the hire process explains what to enter and when a dummy value can be used.
