While we strive to keep the AI's knowledge current with New Zealand payroll legislation, we cannot guarantee complete accuracy due to the potential for laws and interpretation to change.

Yes this is one of the most useful features of the product. The Payroll Assistant always products draft documents which a payroll professional must review before using. All communications drafted by the Payroll Assistant come with a disclaimer.

Sometimes but often this is not the case. In some circumstances where the answer is a simple fact then it can do that, but for more complex questions it is intended that a Payroll Professional will interact several times to get the answer they need. This is intended behaviour.
Yes, if you think that a specific piece of legislation is relevant to your question then tell it to look at it. If it is relevant it will respond and include it.
Not at this time although we are considering this for our roadmap.
The Payroll Assistant answers questions by interpreting your question and considering four core perspectives: Employment Relations, ACC, TAX, Leave, and Payroll in the New Zealand context.
No, the Payroll Assistant is not equipped to assist with coding in any programming language. If you have questions related to code or software, the Payroll Assistant will not be able to assist.
If the Payroll Assistant is unable to find an answer in the legislation or specification, it will issue a disclaimer and ask you for further clarification.
No, the Payroll Assistant does not have the ability to access real-time information or browse the internet. Any query about real-time information must be categorised as an out-of-domain question.
Yes, if you request an email draft, the Payroll Assistant will ensure it is professional, kind, and includes clear references to relevant sections of legislation or specifications.
Yes, after each response, the Payroll Assistant may provide potential follow-up questions that you might be interested in, keeping in mind the four core perspectives. These questions are clearly labelled.
The Payroll Assistant uses specific documents and legislative acts to provide answers. Please note that where the response mentions specifications these are drawn from Ministry provided guidance or interpretation of the Acts not legislative acts themselves.
