Exciting news! You can now pay your supplier invoices in batches, including foreign currency payments such as USD and Euros. We’ve partnered with Currencies Direct to bring you this new built-in functionality, which also includes payment run approvals.

New GRN’s and more…

16/7/2023 – V3 GRNs are now the same, but better:

• They have all the functionality of the V2 GRNs, but with helpful new features. You can now use the line by line ‘Fully Received’ button and leave line comments.

We’re seeing big changes to the Invoice Inbox:

• You can now track a conversation about a specific invoice before it’s been processed.
• Your comments will get converted to document history entries when the invoice is processed, so the comments will remain connected to the document.
• There’s a new ‘status’ you can use to flag a problematic or disputed invoice. Simply mark it as ‘on hold’.

You can now drag and drop files (both single and multiple) onto the upload button

POs and Invoices:

• You can now clone POs, which is super useful if you’re putting in repeat requests often.

Originally only available in V2, you can now add comments to the document history while viewing them in V3.
