2025-02-27
Electronic VAT reporting - Denmark
Business NXT now supports the updated Danish regulations for VAT delivery, via an automatic flow using Visma.net AutoReport. Learn more in the online help: Electronic VAT reporting - Denmark (new VAT structure)
Formula editor
You can now use a formula editor to create formulas and calculations with macros and expressions for calculated columns and form elements. the available macros depend on the context, for example, in the Form element table, you will see different macros for the different form types. The formula editor can be used in:
- Calculated column table - Formula column
- Form element table - Text/parameters column

Reminders
Two issues related to reminders have been solved:
- Printout of reminders would sometimes not succeed, and no error message was displayed.
- PDF files downloaded from the archive were sometimes corrupt.
Update of blocked batches
You can no longer update batches with errors, unless the Update even on error setting has been enabled in the Accounting processing in the Company information table.
Suppress warning for stock availability
A new setting is available in the Order processing 3 dialog. If a Quantity you enter on an order line exceeds what's available in stock, a warning is displayed by default. Enabling the Suppress warning for stock availability setting suppresses the warning.
Special characters in Approval or in Send to Approval dialog
Using special characters in Approval or in Send to Approval would sometimes not render properly in the Workflow details and in the Comments section in Business NXT. This has been solved.
Error message missing for e-mail send failure
Sending e-mail would sometimes not succeed, due to missing/incorrect SMTP setup, and no error message was displayed. This has been solved.
Workflow details
Previously, there was an issue with the workflow details visualization, where the line indicating the steps in the workflow appeared to be shifted to the right. This has been solved.
Migrated documents from Visma Document Center
XML documents migrated from Visma Document Center are now visualised with stylesheets and in a standardised readable format, to support running connected processings.
2025-02-21
Preview of invoices and other order documents
After the release February 20, there was an issue with preview of documents. This has been solved.
2025-02-20
Freight processing dialog
The Freight processing dialog in the Order, Order line and Delivery alternative tables is now updated, and handles all valid selections and settings. See also: Freight processing
Document quantity when reverting a voucher
When a voucher is reversed with the Switch debit/credit option in the Create new voucher processing dialog, the value in Document quantity is reverted in the new batch (from positive to negative, and vice versa). This processing is mainly used by the Contracting NXT integration.
2025-02-17
Improved error messages
You will now get more informative error messages in the Send to Approval dialog, instead of plain, generic error messages.
2025-02-13
Keyboard navigation improvement
Selecting items in dropdowns (for example in the filter dialog column) now works as expected when cycling through items starting with a pressed key (letter). Previously, pressing a key several times would only select the first matching item.
2025-02-11
Focus kept on the active row in table after saving data
Previously, an issue would sometimes occur when several users simultaneously created sales orders. After saving, the system sometimes redirected them to a different order, instead of remaining on the order they were editing. This has been solved.
2025-02-06
Column display in the Filter dialog
After today’s release, when adding a new select condition in the Filter (F9) dialog, the visible columns in the layout were shown both as Visible columns and Available columns. Now the Available columns are shown correctly.
Updated look-and-feel
The Business NXT user interface has got a cleaner and more consistent look-and-feel, as a first step towards an even more enhanced user experience in the coming releases.
Bank reconciliation based on value date instead of voucher date
Bank reconciliation can now be based on Value date by selecting Reconcile using value date under EFT processing 2 in the Bank partner table. The field Balance according to general ledger in the statement report is summed up according to this principle and selected input in Reconciled pr. date in the dialog before running the report.
Visma.net Approval access restrictions
As a part of changes in this release, users can get limited access to the accounting grid in Visma.net Approval.
Users that don’t need to sign in and work in Business NXT don’t need to be granted application access at the customer level - it’s enough if they are part of a user group with access to the Batch, Voucher, Updated batch and Updated voucher (or any other table they need ) for Visma.net Approval.
Users that haven’t been granted application access at the customer level and don’t have access to Business NXT will still see the Business NXT icon in Visma Home, but clicking the icon results in a warning message. The message will be further improved in coming releases.
Export of accounting data or balance statements to accounting basis
When exporting accounting data or balance statements to accounting basis (Danish CSV) using the Export SAF-T processing in the Company information table, the Grouping code and Grouping category fields in the General ledger account table were incorrectly required. This has been solved.
New default layout
Updated default layouts
The following sales order layouts included the wrong postal code and postal area columns on the Delivery inf. tab:
- Sales order (12951)
- Sales order - New (13071)
The columns have now been corrected to Delivery postal code and Delivery postal area.
