# 11/06/2026: Release Notes: Auto-Select Cost Center Option
## These release notes document improvements to the Checkwriters software released on 11/06/2026.
### Auto-Select Cost Center Options
For clients utilizing Checkwriters' option to link Rates to Cost Centers, we have enhanced the Cost Center filtering functionality, adding an auto-select feature when only one valid Cost Center option exists. This enhancement applies to the following pages:
- ESS → **Clock In/Out**
****
- Time Management (module) → Approval → **TimeClock Mgr Approval** → Add/Edit
- Time Management (module) → Approval → **TimeClock Adm Approval** → Add/Edit
Upon clocking in, all Cost Center levels will default to the employee’s [Home Cost Center](https://help.checkwriters.com/knowledge/employee-center-departments?hsLang=en#home-departments-cost-center).
- When an employee makes, for example, a Cost Center 1 change, the system will reevaluate the remaining Cost Center 2 options.
- If Cost Center 2 only has **one valid option**, it will be **automatically selected**.
- If Cost Center 2 has **multiple valid options**, it will **remain blank**, and the employee must select an option.
- This will apply to each additional Cost Center.
