What’s new

Job Scheduler: New task for period backup

In the Scheduler, Administration > Schedules, a new task has been added to automate the creation of period backups. This task can be found under the Period Backup tab and offers similar functionality to that available in the Financial Consolidation application.

With this new feature, customers can:

  • automate the manual process of taking regular backups of their periods before modification or deletion.

  • schedule backups to run at regular intervals, during non-business hours, etc.

For more information on scheduling period backups, refer to the Period Backup section of the Create job schedules article.

Job Scheduler: Error message includes account information

The intercompany matching process can be run from the Scheduler, Administration > Schedules, in the Intercompany Matching tab. When there is an error, such as an account that is not part of any intercompany rule, it will be logged in the error log, accessible via the button.
Error messages appear on the report as follows:

Export Data File Structure: Matching ID column added

On the Export of Data > Export File Structure page, a new option called Matching ID was added to the drop-down list in the Columns Definition section. When selected, this option will populate the Matching ID column in the export file with identifiers assigned to tagged transactions.

Exporting these identifiers, makes it easy to identify tagged transactions in the exported data.

The Matching ID option is also available on the Export of Data > Export Data page.

Status Board Reports: Matching ID added to all transactions

Before this release, the Intercompany Matching report displayed only the identifiers for manually matched transactions in the User Mark column. Now, automatically matched transactions are also included. Both types of transactions are shown together in a single column: the Matching ID column.

Status Board: Company information added to notification email

Email notifications sent from the Comments tab of the Intercompany Matching > Status Board > Status Board Details page now includes the names of the Debit and Credit companies. This makes it easier to identify the partner company to which a comment applies and understand the context of the message.
