Release notes
Blue10

Our release notes provide an overview of all our new features and all the bugs we’ve fixed in Blue10. All updates are categorized per month, which makes it easy to access the correct information.

Please note: we update our software on a ring-based deployment. This means we’ve categorized our users into several groups, and we’ll update our software step-by-step according to those groups. As a result, it may take up to three days before any updates mentioned in the release notes will be available in your Blue10 environment.

April 2024

New functionalities

Invoice Management – General

  • Company setting for date format
    If you frequently receive invoices with international date notations, it is now possible to change the default date format per company. Navigate to Setting > Companies and under the additional settings de setting Default date format for vendors is available. You can specify whether the notation is DD/MM/YYYY or MM/DD/YYYY. This setting determines how the recognized date on the invoice will be interpreted. If this company also deals with sales invoices, the setting Default date format for customers, is also available.
  • Supplier setting for date format
    In addition to changing the date format per company, it’s also possible to deviate from the standard date format per supplier. The setting Date Format has been added via Settings > Suppliers. Here, you can determine whether the supplier follows the standard date format or uses a fixed deviating date format.

Netsuite  

  • Release payment hold in Blue10 for automatically collected invoices
    By default, Blue10 validates and holds invoices in NetSuite. Once an invoice is approved for payment in Blue10, the payment hold in NetSuite is released, allowing the invoice to become payable. With the EFT Bill Payment setting, it’s possible to book invoices that are automatically collected without a payment hold; these invoices no longer require approval. Navigate to Settings > Companies > Open the administration relevant to the setting in Blue10. In the Additional Settings, you’ll find the option ‘Use EFT Bill Payment‘; set it to ‘Yes’ if you wish to utilize the EFT bill payment method. Want to learn more? Read here further.
