Version 6.0.1

Release date: 21 November 2025

1. Billing Documents: UI Revamp

The Billing Documents screen has been rebuilt with a modern interface and improved workflow options. Users can now:

1. Create once-off invoices from scratch directly from the Varibill interface.
2. Edit [specific] field data and transactions, and update existing open billing documents.
3. Delete open invoices and action invoices/credit notes to adjust their status.
4. Add or edit transaction-level details directly on an open/new billing document.

2. Billing Document “Actions” Menu: Bulk Operations

Billing Documents now support an Actions menu directly on the grid, enabling high-level invoice operations in bulk.

Supported actions include:

1. Multiple record selection – Close Record
2. Multiple record selection – Delete Record
3. Multiple record selection – Open Record 
4. Multiple record selection – Rebill Record 
5. Multiple record selection – Reinstate Record 
6. Multiple record selection – Reverse Record
    

These actions were previously limited to single-document view. They are now available on the grid for faster, streamlined invoice management.

3. Improved Date Range Handling: Inclusive End-Date Logic

All UI date pickers used in reports and time-period filters now use inclusive end-date logic.

What’s improved:

1. End dates include all data from the final selected day.
2. More predictable results for monthly, weekly, and custom ranges.
3. Reduced discrepancies between UI reports and exported outputs.

Improved accuracy across all modules using date-range filters, including allocations, usage, contracts, and billing comparisons.

4. Bulk Update Enhancements: New “Document Date” Field

The Bulk Update framework has been expanded to support updating Document Date across multiple records where applicable.

Bulk update is available across several grid types, including but not limited to:

1. Clients
2. Data Imports
3. Billing Documents
4. Source Data items

Bulk update also remains available on Contract, Client, Product, and Source Collector grids where group changes are logically supported.

5. File Templates: File Management Enhancements

File Management templates have been updated to improve clarity:

1. Column descriptions have been rewritten for greater precision.
2. Field descriptions now clearly indicate what is required and how each field is used.

These updates reduce ambiguity when preparing files for upload.

6. Grid Search & Highlighting

Grid search has been updated so that matching text is now highlighted in returned results.

This improvement applies across supported grids, including file upload and data grids, making it easier to identify matched content at a glance.

7. Contract Services: Add Services Directly to Contracts

Users can now add individual services directly to an existing customer contract through the UI.

From Contracts → Contract Editor, users can:

1. Add new products and service lines.
2. Enter contract-specific descriptions and details.
3. Save updates directly to the active contract.

This enhancement provides more precision and flexibility when adjusting contract structures.

8. Additional UI Refinements

Version 6.0.1 also delivers several interface-level improvements that enhance clarity and usability, including:

1. Consistent date handling across reporting modules.
2. Updated field descriptions across File Management and Source Data.
3. Improved page guidance and reduced ambiguity in configuration-driven screens.
