Release R27.20 (US Versions, June 2020)
Before you install this update, we recommend you perform a One Step Update to ensure that your data is synced to the cloud. You should also make a backup of your data file.
- New: Added the ability to schedule future dated payments for Quick Pay and Check Pay. Users will now be able to set specific dates for payments to be made. As part of this addition, we have updated the design of the Calendar, Bills dashboard, and Bill History view to accommodate future dated Quick Pay and Check Pay payments. This includes new Scheduled and In Processing statuses.
- New: We have added a text alerts feature which can send SMS messages to your phone to update you on the status of Quick Pay and Check Pay payments. To use text alerts, you will need to add your mobile number if it is not already entered. This can be done in the new Manage Email Alerts settings available in your preferences. You can also use the settings to determine which bill payment events will trigger an alert.
- New: Added an Investing dashboard that includes a new Top Movers panel. The dashboard is aimed at reducing the complexity of the Investing view to make it easier to quickly assess the status of your investments.
- Improvement: The Account Overview tab will no longer appear under the Business tab unless a user has created a business account.
- Improvement: Created an option to allow users to include the Notes column in their transaction reports. The Notes column can be sorted and is available for printing and export.
- Improved: Changed the default Find (CTRL-F) field from Date to any field.
- Improved: Changing or removing of Tax Line Item categories is now restricted. This is to prevent accidentally altering tax-related information.
- Improved: Error messaging for users who cannot access a cloud-based data file has been improved to explain that the file cannot be accessed because it is already in use by another application.
- Improved: Increased speed of updating investment quotes from the investments tab by not downloading historical quotes. Historical quotes are always downloaded during One Step Update. To include historical quotes from the Portfolio View, use Shift-Get Quotes.
- Improved: To help when you have multiple duplicate transactions, you can now delete multiple transactions in the Compare to Register window.
- Improved: Returned keyboard shortcut functionality for attachments. The shortcut ALT+ERH will open the Attachments window. In the Attachments window, use ALT-S to attach an image from a scanner, use ALT-F to attach a file, or use ALT-C to attach from your Clipboard.
