New Features and Improvements
This section describes new functionality and changes in existing functionality.
Mass management of manual orders
We now have the possibility to select several orders and mass manage them. This means that you can select serval orders and fill and settle them at the same time. Read more here.
Search with BFS-id in several lists
We made it possible to use BFS-id when searching several lists in the system. Some CSV exports only contain the BFS-id and then it is useful for the back office administrator to use the BFS-id when doing a search. It is possible to use the BFS id for example the instrument, account, and user lists.
Unmatched payments in Bricknode Broker
When importing an autogiro file and order can't be matched in the system a task is created to make back-office administrators aware that it has happened and can start the investigation. The payment is deposited in the exception account.
Terminated users
Terminated users are now only visible under Disabled users and they also get a status on the overview saying the user is Terminated.
TIN and country code TIN
We have added properties for TIN and country code TIN in Bricknode Broker. These new properties are found under the Detail tab on a user. The properties are needed in the tax reporting (new from tax period 2020) and have only been in the Tax application before for the customers to add it manually. More info is coming soon.
Performance improvements in the GUI
We have improved the performance when filling and settling internal orders and also when batching (netting) internal orders. This operation has been time-consuming and will now work much faster.
The listing of external accounts took a long time in the tickets “Withdraw Money” and “Automatic Payment”. We have now made some changes so it will go faster.
We now show all currencies in the ticket “Withdraw money” instead of only SEK. We have therefore added a validation that only SEK is supported when selecting Autogiro. The performance is improved when showing all possible currencies that the customer has.
The search button is now disabled until the search is done or you enter a new value in any of the filter boxes. Previously the user could start a new search before the first search was finished which caused a load on the server and performance problems.
Only one account will be selected when navigating to a partner user in Admin. This view has been very slow since a partner can have hundreds of accounts.
New settings for Partner - manage deposits
We now have the same settings for partners that we have for end customers and administrators. Settings where we can allow partners to manage deposits on the partner front, like change date or amount on deposit orders that are not sent to BGC (sent active).
New checkbox on instruments
A new setting on instruments to exclude them from fee-related selling. This could for example be used for instruments that are traded monthly. The checkbox is only visible when having the add-on for Fee Manager activated. You will find the new setting under the section Fees on an instrument. There is also possible to filter on this in the instrument lists.
Trade time for internal orders with manual resulting order route
The trade time was set to Now on internal orders but the default behavior should be the same trade time as the resulting order. When filling the resulting order the internal orders should get the same trade time. The date can always be changed in the GUI.
Possibility to cancel several orders
We added the possibility to cancel several individual orders, we have only had this possibility in some order lists like subscription orders.
Price check when filling manual order
We have added a check when filling a manual order that the price difference that is set on the execution interface setting (System Data > Execution interface) is not too big. This will prevent the user from entering the wrong price.
API - 2.38
This release involves changes in the API, make sure to inform your external developers and update your service reference. Please read our changelog to get all the information about which API-methods that are affected.
There is a breaking change in the method CreateReservations. We have removed the property Order which carries the same information as Reference. The user should henceforth only use the latter.
A release of our NuGet package is also available:
Manage fees and delete custom fields via API
We have four new methods for managing fee records and a new method for deleting custom fields. This method can be used for deleting custom fields on any entity, like accounts.
Data type Enum is enabled as Args input in the API
For a better and easier user experience, it is very good to use Enums as opposed to Strings because they force the user into using the right choices.
Fixed issues
