Features

• Journals: A new Journals feature is now available for members of the accounts group. It allows manual journal entries to be created including options to import from Employment Hero, duplicate existing entries or set up repeating journals. The documentation covers how to access and use each option.
  
  

• Split Purchases: It’s now possible to split purchases across multiple branches (or organisations) from within the branch register. This helps with accurate cost allocation. When a split is applied, journals are automatically created for each branch or organisation involved. View the steps.
