What is Miter?
Miter's November digest takes job photos, material costs and safety records into the field
Miter ships one large digest every month or two, organized by module. The November update is field-heavy: Photos 2.0 in the mobile app with markup and map pins, material logs that post costs to the job and Project Intelligence budgets, job templates, and public safety profiles for contractor prequalification. Payroll adds a missed-deductions report and Spend adds virtual Miter cards.
What is Tanda?
Tanda lets managers pick who can claim a vacant shift and adds bulk availability approvals.
Tanda's workforce and payroll platform ships rostering, HR and payroll controls in near-daily batches. On 11 and 12 November managers gained a choice of who can claim a vacant shift, bulk approval of availability requests, a roster publish menu that remembers settings, and skills ratings inside performance reviews. Payroll got team-level journal accounts for split autopay salaries, and the old wage comparison report was retired in favour of Wage Compare.

Miter's November digest takes job photos, material costs and safety records into the field
◆ Current state
Miter ships one large digest every month or two, organized by module. The November update is field-heavy: Photos 2.0 in the mobile app with markup and map pins, material logs that post costs to the job and Project Intelligence budgets, job templates, and public safety profiles for contractor prequalification. Payroll adds a missed-deductions report and Spend adds virtual Miter cards.
◆ Where it's heading
After the summer's Accounts Payable module and API 2.0, and October's Project Intelligence budgets, Miter is tying field activity back to job costing. Material logs feeding budgets and activity-driven GL coding both point toward Miter as the system of record for job cost, not only payroll.
◆ Prediction
Expect more field data sources to post into job costing and Project Intelligence, since November connects materials and activities to the GL.
Tanda

Tanda lets managers pick who can claim a vacant shift and adds bulk availability approvals.
◆ Current state
Tanda's workforce and payroll platform ships rostering, HR and payroll controls in near-daily batches. On 11 and 12 November managers gained a choice of who can claim a vacant shift, bulk approval of availability requests, a roster publish menu that remembers settings, and skills ratings inside performance reviews. Payroll got team-level journal accounts for split autopay salaries, and the old wage comparison report was retired in favour of Wage Compare.
◆ Where it's heading
After a 4 November HR Agent beta and SMS in Hire, the latest batch is about cutting manager clicks in scheduling and approvals. Several changes consolidate older tools, such as the retired wage report and the redesigned publish menu, which points to a cleanup of the rostering surface alongside new HR features.
◆ Prediction
The redesigned roster publish menu is due to go live this week, and more consolidation of older reports and menus is likely; the entries do not show the HR Agent beta's next step.
