Introduction

At BrioHR, we are committed to continuously enhancing the user experience. We listen to valuable feedback from our clients to deliver new features, improvements, and system enhancements.

This article provides a summary of all BrioHR product updates released on Week 4 of April 2026.

Time Attendance Updates

Option to Exclude Unused Break Time from Total Work Hours

You can now enable 'exclude unused break from work hours'  for a specific shift (Time Attendance module) 

Example:
When this option is ticked for a shift, if an employee only takes a 30-minute break for a shift that allows for 1 hour break time, the system will not count the 30 minutes of unused break time as working time. If the employee clocks in at 9 am and clocks out at 6 pm, with a 30-minute break, the system will still count them as working an 8-hour shift (not 8 hours and 30 minutes) because the 30 minutes of unused break time is not counted as working time.

Active/Inactive Filter Added for Assign Schedule Page

Admins can now easily find employees using the added filter when assigning schedules to employees (in Admin Settings > Schedules and Shift).
