\n\n\n\n

Finnish as a new language<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n
\n

ChurchTools now speaks Finnish! You can now select Finnish in the settings \u2013 perfect for churches in Finland or multilingual teams.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Warning when merging duplicates<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n
\n

When merging duplicate people, you\u2019ll now get a warning if the default email address will change. This helps you avoid accidentally saving the wrong address as the main contact.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Easier creation of person fields<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n
\n

When creating new person fields, you no longer have to worry about table columns or tables. Previously, support had to be contacted, especially for selection fields that provided a list of options to choose from. Now, the necessary table is created automatically and you can get started right away \u2013 saving time and streamlining administration.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Open group type overview directly from the group<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n
\n

In the group view, you\u2019ll now find a direct link to the overview of the group type. This makes it quicker to get to the relevant information and settings.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Budgets for accounts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You can now set budgets directly for individual accounts. This makes financial planning easier and provides a clearer overview of your expenses. The budgets are also displayed in the Budget tab.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Upload account statements as a zip file<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n
\n

Multiple account statements at once? No longer a problem! Simply upload them as a ZIP file \u2013 this change will be particularly welcome to customers whose banks offer the CAMT.053 format but store transactions from a single day in one file. Now you can simply zip all 30 files for a month and upload them to ChurchTools in one go. ChurchTools treats the 30 files as if they were a bank statement import.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Improved detection of similar transactions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n
\n

When importing account statements, ChurchTools now detects similar transactions even better. This makes it easier to find and process duplicate or almost identical entries.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Import accounts with budgets from CSV<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You can now import or update accounts including budgets via CSV file \u2013 even for multiple tenants at once. Perfect for bringing large amounts of data into the system quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
