[Live](https://knowledgebase.counta.com/knowledge/product-updates?hsLang=en#live) October 17, 2025 # What's New - October 20, 2025 ### Multi-select Job Type Filter #### **Overview** We’ve enhanced the job type filter functionality across key pages to support **multi-selection**, making it easier to refine your search results and manage job types more efficiently. #### **What is it?** Previously, users could only select **one job type at a time** when filtering job listings. With this update, the filter now allows you to **select multiple job types simultaneously.** #### **Why it matters** This change improves usability and flexibility: - You no longer need to run multiple searches to compare different job types. - It saves time and streamlines workflows, especially for users managing diverse job categories. #### **How it works** - Navigate to any of the updated pages with job type filters. - Click on the **Job Type** dropdown. - You can now **check multiple boxes** to include several job types in your search. - The results will dynamically update to reflect your selections. The following pages have been updated with the new job type filters - Job Cost & Billing Summary - Job Financial Summary - Job Profitability Summary - Job Time SUmmary - Job Cash Summary - Job WIP Job Summary - Revenue Recognition - Accrued Revenue - Deferred Revenue   #### **When is it needed?** This feature is ideal when: - You’re reviewing or comparing multiple job types. - You need a broader view of job listings without toggling between filters. - You want to streamline your QA or project management workflows. --- ### Renamed “Approve” Transaction Types for Consistency #### Overview We’ve updated the transaction type names in the **User Access Group** setup to match the labels used in the **Approve** menu and corresponding page titles. This change ensures a consistent and intuitive experience when managing user permissions. #### What is it? Previously, the transaction types listed in the **User Access Group** screen used older or inconsistent naming conventions. With this update: - **Transaction type names** now mirror the **Approve menu** options. - **Page titles** and **access labels** are now aligned across the platform. For example: - **“Supplier Invoice Approval”** is now **“Approve Supplier Invoices”** - **“Supplier Invoice Approval – Credit Cards”** is now **“Approve Credit Cards”** These changes are visible only in the **User Access Group** configuration screen and do not affect functionality. #### Why it matters This update improves: - **Clarity**: Users can now easily match access rights with the correct menu items. - **Efficiency**: Reduces confusion when assigning or reviewing permissions. - **Consistency**: Aligns terminology across menus, pages, and access settings. #### How it works - Navigate to **Set Up Files \> User Access Groups** - When assigning access, you’ll now see updated transaction type names that match the **Approve** menu #### When is it needed? This update is especially helpful when: - Setting up or modifying user access groups - Training new users or administrators - Auditing access rights for approval workflows --- ### Preferred Name Now Included in Employee Export/Import #### Overview You can now export and import employee records with their **Preferred Name** included ensuring this important personal detail is preserved across systems. #### What is it? Previously, when exporting employee data from Accountability, the **Preferred Name** field was not included. This meant that any preferred names entered in the system were lost during data transfers or bulk updates.   With this update: - The **Preferred Name** is now part of the **Employee Export** file. - It is also supported in the **Employee Import** process, so you can retain or update this field in bulk. #### Why it matters This enhancement improves: - **Data accuracy**: Ensures preferred names are not lost during export/import. - **Personalization**: Supports respectful and accurate communication by preserving how employees prefer to be addressed. - **Efficiency**: Reduces the need for manual re-entry of preferred names after bulk updates. #### How it works - When exporting employee data, the **Preferred Name** field is now included in the export file. - When importing employee data, you can populate the **Preferred Name** column to update or add this information in bulk. - The system will automatically map and apply the preferred names during import. #### When is it needed? Use this feature when: - Performing bulk updates to employee records - Migrating employee data between environments - Auditing or reviewing employee identity fields for accuracy   - [Product Updates](https://knowledgebase.counta.com/knowledge/product-updates?hsLang=en#main-content) -
