  • Information about the integration between AFAS and Blue10 visible under the Integration section in Blue10
    When you open a company via Settings> Companies, Blue10 shows under the Integration section the existing fields Getconnector version, Environment code, Administration name, and AFAS version. From now on, Blue10 also shows the Featureset version (the featureset version determines the available functionalities in Blue10). To use new functionalities, it may be necessary to update the Getconnector version. This can be done via the download button by downloading the most recent Getconnector version.

Business Central (with extension version 7)

  • Information about the integration between Business Central and Blue10 visible under the Integration section in Blue10
    When you open a company via Settings> Companies, a new Integration section is available.

Optimized

Invoice Management

  • On the Document Overview: Purchase/Sale, search options in the Assigned to field have been optimized
    From now on, it is possible to select multiple users, such as the group of which you are a part, the user who has set you as an out-of-office assistant, and other users (if applicable). The order of users is set in alphabetical order.
  • Search for the changed value of Description in a booked document
    If the description on the booking line has been changed in the accounting system, it is now possible to search for the changed description in the Document Overview: Purchase/Sale in the Description field.
  • Setting up the Out-of-Office Assistant
    Users use the Part of functionality for various scenarios, including setting a replacement during a colleague’s absence. Over time, we will optimize the Part of functionality into (new) functionalities for each user scenario, such as the out-of-office assistant. With the Out-of-Office Assistant functionality, you can set a replacement for handling documents during your absence so that they do not remain unattended. By setting up the Out-of-Office Assistant, it is not necessary to adjust the suggestion and authorization routes during the absence. Want to know more? Read more here.

Resolved issues

No updates available.

November 2023

New functionalities

AFAS

  • Coding on G-account
    Processing purchase invoices with G-accounts in AFAS allows you to set a G-account per supplier on the supplier card. From now on, Blue10 synchronizes this data, making it possible to code a purchase invoice to the G-account. If a G-account is set in AFAS, the G-account field in the header data is visible in the validation screen of Blue10. Based on the settings in AFAS, it is possible to enter a percentage (%) or amount.

Netsuite

  • Booking deferred costs (transitory booking) with Netsuite
    Transitory booking allows you to distribute costs over periods to which these costs relate. Blue10 has made it possible to book a purchase invoice over multiple periods using a standard Amortization Template from Netsuite. Want to know more? Read more here.

Invoice Management – General

  • Assigning a fixed (dynamic) description to a document
    In the Description field in the validation screen, it is now possible to set a fixed dynamic description. Setting a dynamic description is a one-time setup via the Validation Screen or Booking Template. An example of a dynamic description is: “Relation Name” invoice regarding “Invoice Month” “Invoice Year”. If a dynamic description for the monthly Blue10 invoice is set, it would look like this: ‘Blue10 B.V. invoice regarding September 2023’. Want to know more? Read more here.

Optimized

Blue10 General

  • Previously, all steps of the invoice processing process were loaded simultaneously on the Dashboard. From now on, these steps are loaded separately. This eliminates the need to wait until all documents in the invoice processing process are available.

Netsuite

  • Recording VAT for rounding differences
    After booking a purchase invoice from Blue10 in Netsuite, Netsuite calculated the VAT on the purchase invoice. This could result in VAT differences due to rounding discrepancies between Netsuite and the amount recorded in Blue10. From now on, the recorded VAT in Blue10 is leading, eliminating rounding differences caused by VAT calculation in Netsuite.

Exact Online

  1. Changing the period during validation in Blue10
    In the validation screen, Blue10 fills in the Period field, indicating the period in which the purchase invoice falls. From now on, Blue10 takes the date-period control setting from Exact Online. This setting determines whether the period can be changed during validation in Blue10. The setting has three possibilities:
    No: No control takes place, allowing the period to be changed.
    Optional: It is allowed to change the period, but a warning appears if the period does not match the period from Exact Online.
    Mandatory: It is not possible to change the period of the purchase invoice in Blue10 because the setting is set to Mandatory.
    If it is desired to change the period in the validation screen of Blue10, it is possible to adjust the setting in Exact Online via Administration > Settings > on the Financial tab > Data > Perioddate control.

Blue10 API – Optimized

  • Change in displaying the Unit Price setting
    Users working with the logistics adapter API use a feature set that determines the use of fields. Blue10 used to always display the Unit Price setting under Settings > Companies in the Code Information section, regardless of whether this is an available field in the feature set. Blue10 now checks the used feature set to determine whether this field is usable or not. Based on this, Blue10 now only displays the Unit Price setting if it is used in the feature set.

Contract Management

  • Change in uploading a contract
    From now on, when uploading and recording a contract in Contract Management, this can be done easily via the (drag and drop) box, browse, or drag the file here. A maximum of one (pdf) file can be added as a contract. If you want to upload more files, this can be done under the Attachments tab. A maximum of 10 (pdf) attachments are allowed.
    Download the pdf file of the contract
    From now on, you can also download a contract via the download icon above the contract on the Contract Details page. It was already possible to download a contract via the More button on the Contract Details page.

Resolved issues

Contract Management

  • No more selectable duplicate suppliers and/or contract visible in Invoice Management
    It could happen that when recording a new contract, a supplier was visible multiple times because they were double-synchronized from Invoice Management. Due to the synchronization issue, a contract was not always visible on a purchase invoice on the Document Details page: Purchase in the Contract tab. This bug has been resolved, so now each contract is linked to the correct (and only one) supplier.

Invoice Management

  • The language of the group notification is determined by the set language of the group
    If an email address is linked to a group, group notifications were previously sent based on the language of the entire environment. From now on, the language of the group notification is determined by the language set on the group.

Oktober 2023

New functionalities

No updates available.

Optimized

Invoice Management – General

  • Reversing the settings ‘Document has booked invoice lines’
    In September, we announced that the Settings route based on General Ledger, Cost Center, Cost Carrier, and Project was only applicable if ‘Document has booked invoice lines.’ Following customer feedback and internal evaluation, it has been decided to reverse this optimization. It is no longer applicable to set the ‘Document has booked invoice lines‘ setting to Yes. Reversing the optimization has no impact on existing routes.
  • Expanded search options on the Document Overview: Purchase/Sale/Delivery Note
    By clicking on Purchase, Sale, or Delivery Note in the menu, the Document Overview opens with the available documents in Blue10. At the top of the page, you can easily search for documents using search options. From now on, it is also possible to search in booked documents based on General Ledger, Dimension 1, Dimension 2, Amount from, and Amount to.
  • Filter option available on the Translations page
    Via Settings > Translations, it is possible to assign environment-specific translations to elements such as an action or field. From now on, you can filter on the entire environment or per company in the translation overview, providing a filtered overview. Want to know more? Read more here.

Resolved issues

Contract Management

  • Issue with unsent notifications from contracts resolved
    Blue10 Contract Management automatically sends notifications when you need to follow up on a task or when a contract expires. In the period from January 1, 2023, to October 13, not all notifications were sent. We recommend checking on each contract for which you have not received a notification to see if any action has been taken to renew or terminate the contract. To do this, open Contract Management and go to the overview of all contracts (ContractsAll). Click on Filter and choose the period from 1-1-2023 to 13-10-2023 in the Date field.

September 2023

New functionalities

Invoice Management – General

  • Running routes based on General Ledger
    From now on, it is possible to set up routes based on the General Ledger. Go to Settings> Authorization Routes or Suggestion Routes > click + New Route. Choose for which administration this route should apply. To enable the General Ledger option, set the ‘Document has booked invoice lines’ setting to ‘Yes‘. Want to know more? Read more here for setting up authorization routes. Read more here for setting up suggestion routes.
  • Changing columns on the Document Overview: Purchase/Sale/Delivery Note
    By clicking on Purchase, Sale, or Delivery Note in the menu, the Document Overview of all available documents in Blue10 opens. From now on, every user can customize the columns in the overview as desired. This can be done via the Column Settings button. Want to know more? Read more here. In addition, the value in the Type column has been visualized. Blue10 shows the letter D if it is a debit invoice and the letter C if it is a credit invoice.
  • Independently adjusting default sorting settings on the Document Overview
    It is now possible to set the default sorting order on the Document Overview: Purchase/Sale/Delivery Note. Blue10 standard sorts the Document Overview based on the invoice date new-old. With Column Settings, you can now determine the sorting of a column yourself.
  • Option to sign up as a tester for beta features in Blue10
    Do you want to be the first to work with new features in Blue10? Of course, we test every new feature ourselves, although a feature is always as good (or bad) as the first user experience of one of our customers. A user with administrator rights can now sign up as a test client in Blue10. Want to know more? Read more here.
  • Managing contacts to receive information about Blue10
    Blue10 shares information about the use of Blue10 through various channels, including email or in-product with a notification. From now on, Blue10 no longer shares information with all administrators from an environment, but shares this with the assigned contacts. By assigning contacts in Blue10 to specific responsibility areas, Blue10 can approach the entered contacts for specific purposes. Add contacts by clicking on the environment name and username in the top right and then on Subscription Overview (only visible as an administrator) > open Manage Contacts. Want to know more? Read more here.

Contract Management

  • Tags from Contract Management visible in Invoice Management
    In Contract Management, it is possible to link additional search terms, known as tags, to a contract. This makes it easy to retrieve contracts linked to, for example, a project office setup. If a tag is linked to a contract, it is also visible in Invoice Management via Settings > Tags. In the overview, the tags of both invoices and contracts are visible.

Optimized

Invoice Management – General

  • Change in displaying fields in routes
    When creating a new route, Blue10 no longer automatically displays all fields. Instead, you now consciously choose whether the route applies to all administrations/companies or to one administration/company. Go to Management > Suggestion Routes or Authorization Routes > click + New Route. Specify for which administration(s) this route should apply. Note: When the option is all companies, it is not possible to set up the route based on supplier, cost center, cost carrier, General Ledger, or project.
  • Settings route based on General Ledger, Cost Center, Cost Carrier, and Project placed under ‘Document has booked invoice lines’ setting
    The rule values can only be applied to booked invoices. Setting up a route based on the General Ledger, Cost Center, Cost Carrier, and Project can only be selected if the ‘Document has booked invoice lines’ setting is set to Yes. Want to know more? Read more here for setting up authorization routes. Read more here for setting up suggestion routes.
  • Open your personal to-do list directly from the Blue10 email notification
    A user receives an email notification when documents are ready to be processed. When a user clicks on Open Blue10 from this email, the Dashboard was sometimes shown instead of a list of documents to be processed. This caused confusion about where the invoice from the notification had gone. From now on, when you open the email notification and log in to Blue10, you are automatically redirected to the Document Overview: Purchase, where your personal to-do list appears with the document ready to be processed.

AFAS

  • Blue10 only shows the allowed VAT codes from the supplier’s VAT obligation in the validation screen
    On the coding lines in the validation screen, Blue10 used to show all VAT codes from AFAS in the VAT codes field. From now on, Blue10 only shows the VAT codes linked to the VAT obligation on the supplier card in the VAT obligation field in AFAS under ”’Properties purchase relationship/creditor”’.
  • Blue10 only shows the allowed VAT codes for the customer’s VAT obligation in the validation screen
    On the coding lines in the validation screen, Blue10 used to show all VAT codes from AFAS in the VAT codes field. From now on, Blue10 only shows the VAT codes linked to the VAT obligation on the supplier card in the VAT obligation field in AFAS under ”’Properties sales relationship/debtor”’.
  • For displaying the VAT codes when booking a purchase invoice, the setting ‘VAT restriction on journal entries’ is checked
    For a VAT obligation, the VAT restriction on journal entries is set in AFAS. Blue10 now synchronizes from AFAS whether the VAT restriction setting is applicable or not based on the VAT obligation. Depending on this setting, Blue10 shows in the validation screen all VAT codes (when the VAT restriction setting is not applicable) or only the VAT codes from the VAT obligation (when the VAT restriction setting is applicable). To activate this new functionality, GetConnector version 4 is required. Via Settings> Companies per company under the Integration heading, GetConnector version 4 can be downloaded. Under this heading, you can also see which GetConnector version is currently installed. Want to know more about updating the GetConnector? Read more here.

Contract Management

  • Companies & Suppliers automatically synchronized from Invoice Management
    Previously, it was required to link a supplier in Invoice Management to the supplier in Contract Management. This could be done via Settings > Suppliers in the Link with supplier field in Contract Management. As mentioned in the release notes of July 2023, Contract Management now automatically synchronizes the suppliers (and also the companies) from Invoice Management. Linking a supplier is therefore no longer necessary, and the field disappears from Invoice Management.
  • The Variables column is not shown if it is not filled
    On the Contract Details page under the Variables header, depending on the segment of the contract, variables of the contract are visible. For example, if the segment ‘Lease car’ is linked to the contract, variables such as the license plate, fiscal value, and mileage become visible. If no Variable is linked to the contract, this field is not shown.
  • The actions to be performed are now consolidated on the contract details page based on user role
    On the Contract Details page, contract data is displayed, and you can edit the contract information. From now on, it is possible to perform various actions at the top of the Contract Details page, depending on the user role. For example, a user with the ‘Contract editor’ role can save, edit, download, archive, and add files

Resolved issues

Invoice Management

  • Shortcut in the validation screen overwrote data
    Blue10 can be operated using both the mouse and keyboard shortcuts. The Ctrl key in the validation screen was overwriting the description when selecting a value in the invoice. This issue has been resolved.

Contract Management

  • The Tag functionality was not working properly
    Adding and removing tags was temporarily not possible. This is now possible again. Adding a tag was causing the creator of a note to be modified and overwritten. This has now been resolved.
  • Error messages for mandatory fields such as company, contract name, and start date were not translated correctly from English
    Error messages for mandatory fields such as company, contract name, and start date were not translated correctly from English. They are now displayed correctly again.

August 2023

New functionalities

AFAS

  • Entering VAT obligation when creating a supplier in AFAS from Blue10
    It is now possible to specify the VAT obligation when creating a new supplier from Blue10. Only the allowed VAT codes from the VAT obligation are displayed in the Default VAT code field.

Invoice Management – General

  • Open the original email with the document attached from Blue10
    In the Validation Screen, it is possible to directly open the email from the supplier (sender) with the document attached using the Open email button. Depending on the web browser in which Blue10 is opened, the email is either automatically saved or the web browser offers to download the email. The downloaded email can then be opened in an email program, allowing you to contact the supplier (sender). Want to know more? Read more here.
  • Validation of VAT code and (gross/net) amount of the purchase invoice
    For client environments on the application servers EU2, EU3, and EU4, Blue10 already checks the recorded VAT. On the coding lines in the validation screen, Blue10 checks whether the VAT percentage in the VAT code field matches the calculated VAT amount in the Net/Gross fields. From now on, Blue10 also performs this check on application server EU1. Note: There are still three scenarios that rarely occur, not yet covered.
    These are the scenarios:
    – VAT difference multiple lines
    – Commercial discount (applies only to Belgian customers)
    – Book VAT directly
    We are working to cover these scenarios. If you encounter any issues, please contact Customer Support.

Contract Management

  • Blue10 suggests the total contract value when recording a contract
    On the Contract Details page under the Financial heading, a suggestion for the total contract value appears automatically in the Total value per year field. Blue10 calculates the suggested value as soon as the price section (price and price unit) is filled in. Is the suggested value correct? Click on the suggested value to record the total contract value in the Total value per year field.
  • Assigning responsible per contract (Contract Manager)
    It is possible to specify which user is responsible for each contract, also known as the Contract Manager. On the Contract Details page, under the Contract Data heading, this can be recorded in the Contract Manager field. Click on the field to open a drop-down list of users in Contract band select the correct user. The Contract Manager is the user who receives notifications about the contract. If no Contract Manager is specified for a contract, users with administrator rights in Contract Management will receive notifications.
  • Managing user rights in Contract Management
    A user with administrator rights in Contract Management can manage the rights of all users in Contract Management. For each user, it is possible to assign a role and set access restrictions per category or multiple categories. Want to know more? Read more here.
  • Access restriction of users to contracts in Contract Management
    An administrator in Contract Management can set access restrictions for a user on the User Rights page. The access restriction determines which contracts the user is allowed to view and/or edit per category. Want to know more? Read more here.

Invoice Management – General

  • Blue10 now also available in Italian
    We have added a new user language, allowing Blue10 to be used in Italian. Go to My Settings to adjust the language in Blue10 or have an administrator make this change via Settings > Users. Would you like to help us improve the translations? We would appreciate your assistance! Send an email to customersuccess@blue10.com, and we will contact you. Good to know: All management pages of Blue10, the support website, and support from Blue10 employees are currently only available in Dutch and English.

iMuis

  • Blue10 shows payment conditions on the supplier in the header data of the invoice when validating
    iMuis has a fixed payment condition for the supplier. Blue10 now shows the fixed payment condition for the supplier in the header data of the invoice in the validation screen. It is not possible to adjust the payment condition per booking.

AFAS

  • Coding on payment condition when booking a purchase invoice
    Blue10 shows in the Payment Method field the methods ‘Bank’ or ‘Direct Debit’ from AFAS. From now on, the payment terms from AFAS are also visible in Blue10. Blue10 displays this information in the Payment Terms field, such as 14 days or 30 days. To activate this new functionality, GetConnector version 4 is required. Via Settings> Companies per company under the Integration heading, GetConnector version 4 can be downloaded. Under this heading, you can also see which GetConnector version is currently installed. Want to know more about updating the GetConnector? Read more here.

Contract Management

  • Notice period in days no longer available

Resolved issues

Invoice Management – General

  • Blue10 now shows (again) the number of documents in the document recognition process on the Dashboard

Contract Management

  • Archiving contracts was temporarily not possible
    Contracts were temporarily not archived. This has been resolved, and it is now possible to archive contracts on the Contracts overview by clicking on the trash can icon.
  • Choosing company and supplier for an existing contract
    It was temporarily not possible to select a company and supplier for an existing contract where these values were empty. Both the company and the supplier remained empty after saving. This has now been resolved.
  • Error message when uploading a new contract fixed
    When adding an attachment during the creation of a new contract, an error message (‘500 server error’) was displayed. This has now been resolved.
  • Value in the Contact Name field was temporarily not saved

Ensure that this date is well before the termination date to allow sufficient time for arrangements.
    Notifications are automatically sent for all newly added contracts Previously, there were instances where notifications were not sent. After optimization, you will now receive standard notifications for all newly added contracts.

Exact Online

  • Changes in Fields on Coding Lines when passing on costs to a project
    Previously, Blue10 would show the field Pass on Costs on coding lines by default because coding on cost centers was activated. Now, in Settings> Companies, it is possible to enable or disable each coding field (Code on Projects, Code on Cost Centers, and Code on Pass on Project).

AFAS (Specific to Belgian Administrations)

  • Booking Purchase Invoice with Tax Shift (Specific to Belgian Administrations)
    In Blue10, it was not possible to fully book a purchase invoice with a tax shift, requiring a user to adjust the VAT in AFAS. When booking a purchase invoice with a tax shift, two additional coding lines are now booked: To Pay VAT and Recoverable VAT. To activate this new functionality, GetConnector version 4 is required. GetConnector version 4 can be downloaded via Settings> Companies per company under the Integration heading. This section also shows which GetConnector version is currently installed.

Want to know more about updating the GetConnector? Read more here.
  • Changes in the Project Field on Coding Lines in Blue10

  1. When the project is not allowed on the general ledger account, the Project field is blocked from filling. Blue10 does not include a project in the booking in AFAS.
  2. If it is set on the general ledger account that a project booking is allowed, it is possible to fill in the Project field.
  3. If it is set on the general ledger account that a project booking is required, it is also mandatory to fill in the Project field in Blue10.

    When checking and approving a purchase invoice, the linked purchase order is visible on the Purchase tab. Blue10 now also displays the receipt status, invoice status, and order status of the linked purchase order on this tab. In the upper right corner, with the synchronization button (two arrows), it is possible to update the information of the purchase order from Exact Online. Blue10 then retrieves all (changed) data from the purchase order.

General

  • Changes on Document Details Page: Purchase
    The following changes have been made on the Document Details Page: Purchase
  • The “Compare Invoice” button is more visible, with the name changed from “Other invoices supplier” to “Compare Invoice.” Functionally, the button works the same: it is possible to compare the current purchase invoice with previous purchase invoices from the same supplier.
  • The “Download Original” and “Open Original” buttons have been enlarged and made more visible.
  • Above the image of the purchase invoice, the heading “Purchase Invoice” has been removed, and only the tabs are visible. The order of the tabs is based on the order of the invoice processing process if they are linked to the purchase invoice.

Exact Online (BE)

  • Deductible VAT Percentage is Shown in Booking Details
    On the Document Details Page: Purchase, under the Booking Details section, the deductible VAT percentage was not visible. Blue10 now synchronizes this data, making it visible on the booked invoice lines, showing how the VAT is booked.

Resolved issue

  • Blue10 Does Not Show Incorrect Error Message About Deleted Suppliers in Routes
    When opening a route via Settings > Auto Routes or Suggested Routes, Blue10 gave an incorrect error message for a route based on multiple suppliers, stating that the suppliers were deleted, which was not the case. This has been fixed, and the error message no longer occurs. The error message did not impact the modification of existing routes or their execution.
  • Blue10 Adjusts Changed Amounts in VAT Rule 1 in Header Details on Coding Lines
    If changes were made to the amounts in the header details, such as VAT Rule 1, these changes were not reflected on the coding lines. This has been resolved, and the amounts on the coding lines are now adjusted after a change in the header details.

  • Changes in Booking Purchase Invoice on Warehouse/Location
    When booking a purchase invoice on a warehouse/location, it was mandatory to provide an article. From now on, it is possible to book on a warehouse/location without specifying an article. In the case of booking on inventory items, it remains mandatory to provide a warehouse. Only active warehouses/locations are now pulled into Blue10. Blue10 now also displays the warehouse/location on the booked invoice lines on the Document Details Page.
  • Change when Creating a New Vendor via Blue10
    In the Blue10 validation screen, it is possible to create a vendor in Netsuite via “Add a new vendor.” Under Payment Details, it is possible to indicate whether EFT Bill Payment is a valid payment method for the vendor. Blue10 Only Displays Active Departments and Classes on Coding Lines Previously, Blue10 displayed both active and inactive departments and classes from Netsuite on the coding lines. From now on, it is only possible to choose active departments and classes on the coding lines.

AFAS

  • Change in Coding on Warehouse in Conjunction with AFAS In Management > Companies, for a company linked to AFAS, under the heading Code Information, the setting “Code on Warehouse” was available. We mistakenly made this setting available. In combination with AFAS, it is not possible to code on warehouses because AFAS does not support this. From now on, the “Code on Warehouse” setting is no longer available. Enter Vendor Search Name when Creating a Vendor in AFAS from Blue10 From now on, when creating a new vendor from Blue10, it is possible to enter the search name.

Business Central & Microsoft Navision

  • Blue10 Now Displays the VAT Category under Booking Details
    On the Document Details Page: Purchase, Blue10 now shows, under the heading Booking Details, next to the payment condition, the VAT category. This is the VAT business booking group from Navision/Business Central for categorizing VAT (domestic, within EU, outside EU, etc.).

Blue10 API

  • Changes in Purchase Order Dialog in Blue10 Validation Screen
    In the Blue10 validation screen, it is possible to link a purchase order to an invoice. In the purchase order dialog, the refresh button is visible to retrieve purchase orders from the accounting system. Until now, this button did not work, and Blue10 did not retrieve purchase orders. In the Blue10 API, we made a change so that it is now possible to retrieve purchase orders from the accounting system. Click here for more information for the developer to make both changes available. In addition, it is now possible for Blue10 to display the total amount of the purchase order in the purchase order dialog. Click here for more information for the developer to make both changes available.

Resolved issue

  • Marking of Recognized Data on Document in Validation Screen
    Blue10 temporarily did not mark the recognized data on the document in the validation screen. From now on, Blue10 again shows where it has recognized the filled value after clicking on the field in the validation screen.
  • After Creating a New Vendor, It is Immediately Visible in the Validation Screen
    In some accounting systems, it is possible to create a new vendor via the validation screen in Blue10. After creation, when synchronizing vendors, the newly created vendor was not immediately selectable in Blue10. This has been resolved, allowing a vendor to be immediately selectable after creation.
  • Improved Document Recognition for Company/Administration
    Due to a change, Blue10 temporarily did not recognize the correct company of a document. We have resolved this, and Blue10 now correctly recognizes the company of a document.

AFAS

  • When Creating a New Vendor, It is Again Possible to Choose a VAT Code
    When creating a new vendor in the validation screen, it was temporarily not possible to select a VAT code because Blue10 did not display values. This has been resolved, and a vendor is again immediately selectable after creation.

  • Change in the Field Specification 3/4/5 on Coding Lines in Blue10
    In AFAS, it is possible to set whether it is allowed to book on a specification at the general ledger account. Blue10 previously only checked for specification 1 and 2 on the general ledger account if it is allowed to book a specification here. From now on, Blue10 also performs this check for specification 3, 4, and 5.

  • Changes when Creating a New Supplier via Blue10
    In the validation screen of Blue10, it is possible to create a supplier in Netsuite via Add a new supplier. We have optimized this so that the VAT number and address details (street + house number) are now filled in on the supplier card. Additionally, Blue10 now also fills in the phone number on the detailed page of the supplier card. Finally, it is now possible to record the email address of the supplier from Blue10.

Resolved issues

  • Supplier Field Visible Again in the Validation Screen In some cases, the Supplier field in the header data of the invoice was not visible. This has been resolved, and Blue10 now displays the field again.
  • Adopting Changed Description in Header Data on Additional Coding Line When the Description field was changed in the header data of the purchase invoice, this change was only adopted on the first coding line and not on additionally added coding lines. This has been resolved, and Blue10 now adopts the changed description on all coding lines.
  • Blue10 Automatically Updates the Actual Status of Purchase Invoice on the Document Detail Page: Purchase After performing the Book and block action, the message Waiting for feedback from the accounting system may appear. Previously, it was necessary to refresh the page to retrieve the actual status of the purchase invoice. Now, Blue10 automatically refreshes the page, making the current status, including the journal entry number and booked invoice lines, immediately visible in Blue10. Manual page refresh is no longer required.
    The automatic page refresh also applies to updating the booked invoice lines under the Booking Details heading.

    Blue10 has made an improvement in the purchase order dialog box on the validation screen and the Purchase Orders tab on the Document Details page: Purchase. Blue10 now displays the Total Amount of the purchase order in the header instead of on the purchase order lines, providing a quicker overview of whether the total amount matches the invoice amount.

Resolved issues

  • Temporary Issue with Downloading Blue10 Invoice: Due to an update in Blue10’s own Business Central environment on January 17th and 18th, it was temporarily not possible to download the Blue10 invoice or view customer details on the Subscription Overview. As of January 19th, these functionalities are restored.

  • Fields “VAT Code” and “VAT Amount” on Coding Line(s) Now Dependent on “Allow VAT” Setting / Blue10 Now Syncs the “Allow VAT” Setting from AFAS: Blue10 previously did not sync the “Allow VAT” setting from the general ledger account in AFAS. As a result, it was mandatory to fill in the “VAT Code” and “VAT Amount” fields on the coding line(s) in Blue10, even if VAT was not allowed. Blue10 now syncs the “Allow VAT” setting from the general ledger account in AFAS. If the setting is unchecked (VAT not allowed) in AFAS, the “VAT Code” and “VAT Amount” fields on the coding line(s) in Blue10 will be blocked, and these fields do not need to be filled in.
