12 Jan: Version 5.6.0 – Payee Data Model Upgrade, ACH Flexibility, and Smarter Batch Statuses
Version 5.6.0 delivers a major upgrade to payee management and payment accuracy across the platform. This release introduces a new Payee Data Model, enabling multiple bank accounts per payee and a fully redesigned Payees experience. It also adds greater flexibility for ACH routing configurations, improves batch status accuracy, and expands bulk actions for managing payee invitations.
✨ New Features
New Payee Data Model & Payees Redesign: Introduced a new underlying Payee Data Model that supports multiple bank accounts per payee, alongside a complete redesign of the Payees module for improved clarity, navigation, and scalability.
Flexible ACH Routing Configuration: Added support for configuring an ACH-specific routing number, separate from routing numbers used for checks and digital checks, providing greater control over payment processing.
Accurate Batch Status Based on Payment Outcomes: Updated batch status logic so that when all payments share the same outcome (e.g., all voided, rejected, or canceled), the batch status accurately reflects the true state of the batch.
Bulk Actions for Payee Invitations: Added the ability to bulk re-send and cancel payee onboarding invitations, streamlining payee management for teams working with large volumes.
➕ Improved
Payees Experience: Improved responsiveness and visual consistency across the redesigned Payees module to support the new data model.
Payments Visibility: Enhanced status clarity and alignment between batch-level and payment-level states.
General UX Refinements: Improved interaction patterns and consistency across forms, tables, and modals.
