We’re pleased to share that Crown Workforce Management 16.1 is now live.
With several upgrades already underway, this release will soon become our new GOLD standard release. Upgrading means access to powerful new features, the latest Microsoft .NET technology and enhanced security protection, keeping your system safe, compliant and future-ready.
What’s New in 16.1
Rolling Entitlement
Rolling entitlement makes it easier to manage complex entitlements such as sick pay, with no manual input required. The system automatically checks and swaps payment codes where needed, and ensures the correct information is sent to payroll, giving full visibility of remaining allowances.
Why it matters: Managers save time and avoid manual tracking, while employees gain confidence that their pay and allowances are accurate and up to date.
Geofencing
Capture mobile clockings securely within a pre-set distance of the working location. Clockings made outside the defined geographic area are automatically rejected, ensuring employees clock in where they are meant to be.
Why it matters: Safely manage a mobile workforce or remote locations where a fixed terminal is not an option. Ensuring all staff are managed in a consistent and accurate manner.

Self-Service Document Access
Employees can now view and download their own documents directly from the Personal Information page, including files such as Return-to-Works, Fit Notes or any other documents stored within WFM.
Why it matters: Giving employees direct access to their information promotes transparency and accessibility, while reducing the time managers spend responding to document requests.
