New or changed functionality
| Functional area | Description | Id |
|---|---|---|
| Expenses | We have improved the usability of payment types, including making them available for user groups, and made it easier to define and assign them to users. As a consequence, the "Refund User" flag on the Payment Type gets replaced by the "Posting Method", which can be "Post on the Expense User Account" ("Refund User" = True) and "Post on Business Account" ("Refund User" = False). The upgrade takes care of the conversion. | 43075 |
| Expenses | We have prevented the possibility of specifying a balancing or intermediate account if that account has VAT associated with it. | 43651 |
| Expenses | We have prevented the possibility of (wrongfully) assigning the same Balancing Account and Intermediate Account No. to a Payment Type. | 43652 |
| General Application | We have extended most of the description fields from 50 to 100 characters throughout the application for consistency with Business Central. | 13903 |
| General Application | We are now creating number series and source codes when the Assisted Setup has been importing Expense Management Setup data. This is no longer done when creating demo data. This change also ensures Expense Management Setup only contains valid codes for source codes and number series, compared with previous versions where a mismatch was sometimes found. | 16000 |
| General Application | We have added the possibility to add a Taxable Account when using taxable rates in Mileage and Per Diem. | 43506 |
| General Application | Expense Management is now updating the Notification text in Payment Management so that the users are informed on which documents are being paid. The functionality can be enabled in Payment Management by ticking "Enable Payment Management Event" in Notification Setup. The functionality is only available for the latest versions, starting with Business Central 2020. With this functionality, a new extension app will be installed: Continia Core Connectivity. | 43508 |
| General Application | We have introduced support for the Portuguese localization. That includes translations, document signing and Purchase Invoice creation for the business Vendors. | 44382 |
| General Application | To comply with the Universal Code initiative, the following has been changed. A new Document Storage Type named File Service has been added. The File Service storage type is used to access locally stored files (PDFs, images, etc.) through a new Continia File Service. For further information, please see the following article on Continia Docs: https://docs.continia.com/en-us/continia-expense-management/new-and-planned/platform-and-technology/avoid-business-central-universal-code-initiative-fees | 44665 |
| General Application | The Continia Notifications module has been introduced, enabling you to receive notifications about operational statuses and important releases directly inside Business Central. Note that if you have a closed on-premises environment and upgrade to the latest version of Expense Management, it's important that you allow outgoing traffic to the Continia Notifications addresses specified under Firewall requirements. Otherwise, you'll be unable to receive any notifications from Continia. | 45468 |
| Mileages | Expense Management will help calculate VAT refunds on mileages when receipts for fuel are provided. The functionality is enabled on the mileage rates, when "Fuel Rate" is specified. The VAT Amount will be posted into a different G/L Account. | 32318 |
| Mileages | We have expanded the 60 day rule with different levels of consequence when a user exceeds it. | 39389 |
