Release 1.6.0 (09/12/2021)

Guidance notes on the release 1.6.0

Improvements

Registration Page - Pricing Link

A link to the pricing structure has been added to the registration page, allowing new users to review the pricing prior to registering on the Travel Ledger platform.

Amend 'Updated by' to include Seller details on commitment of file

The platform now displays "Updated by" values for Sellers (Company name & ID) on the commitment of transactions in the bookings grid. Previously, 'Updated by' was only added once the transactions had been actioned by the Buyer. This change includes transactions committed by sFTP and email methods.

Add "Updated by" values to transactions uploaded via FTP or email

When a Seller file is now uploaded and committed to the Travel Ledger platform, the name and time stamp of the uploader will be added to the transactions > Bookings grid.

Remittance status update

Remittance status will now change to 'Completed' on the payment date, when the funds are actually cleared. Currently, remittance status is marked as Completed at the time of remittance creation.

Additionally, an interim status of "clearing" is applied to a remittance once payment submission is passed to BACs. The remittance status changes to "completed" only when the funds clearing period is completed, provided the payment is not rejected during this period.

Amend the 'Due' date default filter date window in Transactions>Bookings grid

The default filter applied to the 'Due' date column in the Transactions>Bookings grid has been extended from the last 14 days to the last 21 days. This change allows performance improvements to remain in place while ensuring transactions that are loaded a week early by Sellers are also captured in the default data displayed.

Implemented the ability to Archive/Suspend a CL

It is now possible for PEs to suspend Commercial Links. This is managed through Partners>Commercial Links, by clicking on 'update status' the PE user can change the status of the Commercial Link:

- Pending - No change to current logic. This is a Non-active CL status - Live - No change to current logic. This is an Active CL status - Suspended – This is a Non-active CL status - Archived - This is a Non-active CL status

The two new statuses are functioning as below:

'Suspended' - temporary disablement which can only be undertaken by the CL owner. A Suspended CL can be reinstated (back to Live), again only by the CL owner, or permanently disabled

'Archived' - Permanent disablement - which can only be undertaken by the CL owner. An Archived CL cannot be re-instated, archiving is a one time action with no return. An Archived CL can however be copied.
