What Got Shipped Today - 24/7/26

24 July 2026 Features My Approvals: everything waiting on you, in one inbox As anyone in the approval chain, I used to hunt through email and registers to find what needed my sign off, so I can now open one inbox and see every approval that concerns me. Before. Approvals lived wherever they were raised. Finding what was waiting on you meant digging through notifications, emails, and individual registers, and it was gated behind Admin access that most approvers did not have. After. A new My Approvals button sits in the top bar next to the notification bell, with a badge counting what needs your action. Open it and a panel slides down with two views: waiting on me, and requested by me. Click any row for the full context, the approval route, the decision history, and a jump straight to the record. Every user gets it, whatever their role. Impact. No more chasing approvals across the platform. The person who needs to act sees it the moment they log in, and the person who raised it can watch it move. Sign offs stop stalling because nobody knew they were waiting. The new My Approvals button in the top bar (arrowed), which opens a personal inbox of every approval waiting on you. Tender recommendations, signed off before you award As a contract administrator or estimator, I used to prepare a tender recommendation in a Word doc that a manager approved by email, so I can now generate it from the comparison itself and route it for approval inside the platform. Before. The step between comparing bids and awarding was informal. The recommendation lived in a document or an email, disconnected from the comparison data, unauditable, and easy to skip. Award could happen with no approval on record at all. After. From Compare Bids you generate a Tender Recommendation carrying the shortlist, the levelled values, adjustments, and your justification. It routes to one or more approvers who approve or reject with comments, and the whole chain runs on the platform approval engine with a full audit trail. You can optionally gate award on an approved recommendation, and switch that gate off for smaller jobs that do not need it. Impact. The award decision is now backed by the data it was based on, and the sign off is captured, not remembered. This is the governance step commercial managers and directors actually buy procurement software for, and it now closes the loop between comparison and award. Map your cost codes to Xero in one pass As a finance lead, I used to map every cost code to a Xero account one at a time, so I can now export a template, fill it once, and import the whole set. Before. Mapping cost codes to the Xero chart of accounts was a manual, row by row job. A workspace with 150 codes meant 150 clicks, with no way to see the whole mapping at once or reuse it. After. Export your cost codes to a mapping template, set the accounts in bulk, and import them back in a single pass. Many cost codes can point to one account, so consolidated chart of accounts setups map cleanly. The import and export run both ways, so the mapping is easy to review and adjust. Impact. Standing up a Xero connection goes from an afternoon of clicking to a few minutes in a spreadsheet, and large or consolidated chart of accounts structures are no longer a barrier to going live. The new Import Cost Code Mappings dialog: export your cost codes, set the Xero accounts in bulk, and import them back in one pass. Improvements Registers that show who the ball is with As a contracts administrator, I used to see that a notice was awaiting someone but never who, so I can now read who owns the next action and filter by the fields that matter to me. Before. Locked registers showed direction (awaiting them, awaiting me) but never named the person or company holding it up, and you could not filter by a notice type own fields. After. Type-locked registers now carry an Action Required By column showing who currently owns the next action, plus filters driven by each type own fields (RFI category, Site Instruction type, submittal package). Site Instructions get their own standalone register alongside the other notice types, and admins can now set their own dropdown options per workspace so registers and reports speak your vocabulary.Impact. Chasing gets faster and more accurate, reporting uses your own taxonomy instead of a generic seed list, and Site Instructions get the same clean, filterable register as everything else. Pick or add a trade without leaving the bid package Before. In a bid package, the trade section name was free text sitting next to a separate trade dropdown, so naming drifted and sections were not reliably linked to a trade. After. The trade section is now a single searchable dropdown backed by your workspace trades list, with add a new trade inline. Picking a trade links the section to it automatically, and existing free-text sections still display as they were. Impact. Bid packages stay consistent with how trades are picked everywhere else, and your trades list stays clean instead of filling up with one-off spellings. Generate and send your payment schedule document in a click Before. Producing and sending a payment schedule document to a subcontractor meant setting it up from scratch each time. After. Generate and Send Document is now on the Payment Schedule. The setup attaches to the subcontract, so once you configure it once you can reuse the same setting for every payment schedule under that subcontract. Impact. Recurring payment schedule paperwork gets faster each cycle, with less manual setup and a consistent document going out to the subcontractor. Accepting a payment schedule can now email the generated document straight to the saved recipients, with the setup saved against the subcontract for next time. Fixes Large shared folders download in one go Before. On a public folder share link, Download all failed for folders over about 32 megabytes. Subcontractors sent an ITT via a shared folder could not bulk-download the files and had to grab them one at a time. After. Download all now assembles the zip in your browser, so folder size is no longer capped by the gateway. The full folder downloads in a single click with its structure intact. Impact. Tender recipients get every file in one download, and shared folders work as a reliable way to distribute an ITT rather than a source of support calls. Tender invites go to the right person, not the whole company Before. Publishing a tender to a directory company emailed every verified member of that company, so a subcontractor entire team received identical copies of the same invitation. After. Each invite now goes to the contact nominated on the invite, or the company primary contact if none is nominated, falling back to all members only when no contact is on file at all. At selection time each company chip shows exactly who the invite will reach, with an amber warning when a company has no primary contact set. Impact. Subcontractors get one clean invitation to the right person instead of a flooded inbox, and you can see who will be contacted before you publish.
