We are now offering a new and optional way for you to hire workers for your project -- "Delegate all details to worker". This optional flow enables you to add a worker to your project with nothing more than their name, email, and required startwork. Workers be prompted to input their own job information, which you will be asked to approve before they can submit timecards. 

Note: The existing hiring flow is still available to you if you prefer to enter all job and pay detail. 

Production moves fast. To help you stay on top of all the moving pieces, we've introduced additional automated notifications for both companies and workers. 

Company Administrators and Managers will now receive reminders to fund payroll and a weekly digest of pending items.

Workers will automatically receive weekly reminders to submit timecards, with a final reminder after a project has ended. 

Wrapbook began with a mission: to increase the prosperity of the project economy through better financial services. That journey began with transforming production payroll. Today, we are thrilled to announce a new milestone.

We are expanding our payroll platform and introducing new cost-management capabilities—a powerful set of features that connect production and accounting teams in a single, simple solution.

Wrapbook now streamlines expense tracking, freeing production teams from the hassle of chasing after receipts and purchase orders. Real-time data provides production accountants with a clear overview of expenses. Our integrations with Quickbooks, Sage Intacct, Oracle Netsuite, and Acumatica enable accounting to actualize faster and more accurately. By improving collaboration and eliminating data entry, our new features reduce wrap time and costs.

We are also evolving our brand to better reflect our offerings across payroll, production accounting, and services. Our refreshed identity embodies simplicity, structure, and refinement—tenets that are essential to our goal of providing you with easy-to-use tools that unleash your creativity.

Production companies can now easily enforce hourly rates, rather than allowing guaranteed rates, for all non-union, non-exempt employees on projects in California. 

To enforce the use of hourly rates only, go to Company Settings > Project Preferences > Payables & Timecards, and select Yes for California Hourly Rate Enforcement Settings. 

Note: This setting will apply to all new projects created. Existing projects will not be impacted.

Section 3 of Form I-9 allows companies to compliantly re-hire workers without needing to complete a new Form I-9. If a worker’s employment authorization documents expire (or if the worker legally changes their name), companies must complete Section 3 of Form I-9. 

1. With the rehired worker added to the project, navigate to their Worker Profile. 
2. Within the Form I-9 line item, click the re-verify button. This will open Section 3 of Form I-9.
3. Review the information from the existing I-9 at the top of the page. If all information is correct, and no updates are necessary, select their upcoming date of rehire and sign. 
4. If the worker has legally changed their name since their last hire, or if one or more of the worker’s supporting documents have expired, please update using the fields in Section 3: Reverification & Rehires. 

Once signed, ‌separate supporting documents specific to Section 3 will be available. You can access this information from the Worker Profile. Next to the Form I-9 line item, click View.

There are several different methods for calculating non-union overtime rates. To help you determine the best calculation for your production, we've added a new tool that provides an overview of each calculation. 

When adding a non-union worker to a project, a Learn More prompt will now display under Time calculations. A sidebar will appear with a dropdown menu providing an overview of each calculation and the calculator rules. Once you've identified the appropriate calculation, select Apply to use the calculation for the selected worker.
