Chargebee Release Notes

With this release, Last Email Cycle - based filters have been added to the Invoice and Customer views. The filters will help in creating multiple segments of customers who belong to a particular email cycle. These filters will help you identify which stage of engagement a customer is at.

A bug was found in the Account hierarchy customers instance due to which the Invoice owner name was appearing as blank. This has been fixed.

We have increased the security of Receivables due to a security-related bug in which there was an information leak due to improper handling of email parameters.

We are excited to announce an improvement to the daily chart feature in our application, specifically aimed at enhancing its usefulness for analyzing aggregated metrics such as Voluntary Cancellation MRR.

With this release, we have added support for a Payment Initiator API parameter that can be used to distinguish whether a transaction is initiated by you or a customer.

With this release, you can now leverage the enhanced capabilities of Report Builder to access and analyze entity-level fields. This improvement empowers users with a broader range of data points, facilitating more comprehensive and insightful analysis within the tool.

Previously, there was an issue where the finance dashboard could not be generated, causing inconvenience to merchants. With this release, we have implemented improved error-handling mechanisms to address this issue.

We have made advancements to the Leap user interface. We noticed that some important information was missing, such as the next renewal date and other items like trial start, trial end, pause date, and resume date. With this release, all these missing details have been added, ensuring that you have access to the necessary information for your subscription and trial periods.

We've improved the user experience on details pages (Customer, Invoice, and more.) by reducing extra clicks. Previously, some options were hidden behind a horizontal ellipse icon, causing inconvenience. Now, we have brought those options out of the icon, making them easily accessible with a single click.

We're excited to announce that we have expanded our payment options by adding support for the Stripe Boleto payment method on Chargebee-hosted pages. This enhancement enables you to offer your customers in Brazil a convenient and widely used payment option. With the integration of Boleto payments, your customers can now easily complete transactions using the popular Brazilian payment method, further enhancing their checkout experience. This update is available across the Checkout New, Checkout Existing, and Checkout One-Time flows.

We have introduced a new feature that allows you to easily share voucher details with your customers. With this update, your customers will be able to take necessary actions, such as saving, downloading, or viewing the required information on the Boleto voucher. This functionality is available through the *Create a hosted page to view Boleto vouchers* API endpoint.

We are pleased to announce that we have addressed a critical issue related to tax calculation on line items. This issue was causing an ArithmeticException by zero error while syncing invoices to QuickBooks Online (QBO). With this release, the error has been resolved, ensuring smooth and error-free synchronization of invoices with QBO.

We are excited to introduce a new enhancement to the accounting integration between Chargebee and Netsuite, specifically targeting Finance admins. Based on valuable user feedback, we have implemented the option to copy the Billing address into the Shipping address field while syncing invoices into Chargebee. This enhancement enables Netsuite to assign tax codes accurately based on the Shipping address provided.

We're excited to announce that we have expanded our payment options by adding support for the Stripe Boleto payment method through Chargebee.js. With the integration of Boleto payments, your customers can now easily complete transactions using the popular Brazilian payment method, further enhancing their checkout experience.

In this release, we have enhanced the error messaging during Chargebee to Hubspot sync. Instead of receiving a generic error message, customers will now see specific error messages from the API response, allowing them to identify and resolve the issues independently. The error stack will be logged in the database and Splunk, enabling the support team to provide detailed information for troubleshooting. This update aims to reduce customer support interactions and streamline the sync process.

We've made a bunch of performance bug fixes, and minor improvements.

With this release, we have fixed a bug to show the correct count when emails are triggered in bulk from the Customer, Subscription, or Invoice index page.

The Tax Subledger (EAP) feature in RevRec enables you to manage and automate journal entries for sales-related taxes. It allows for capturing tax information from Chargebee Billing's invoices, generating journal entries based on user-configured GL mapping, and posting them into third-party accounting systems. You have the ability to define specific rules for tax-related general ledger account mapping and journal entry aggregation, allowing for customization based on jurisdiction, tax types, or other custom fields.
