So what is new in 3.6?

Version 3.6 is intended to bridge the gap between 3.5 and the next major release, 4.0 and includes many improvements. Here are some of the new features in 3.6:

  • New Gateways: Converge (aka VirtualMerchant), and Braintree
  • Payment types can be designated as non-income
  • Automatically set Payment Accounts for auto-debit when saved
  • Improved performance of Invoice and Transaction searches
  • Added ability to invoice each service independently
  • Added ability to mass schedule cancellation of services
  • Show invoice line items on client pay page when paying a single invoice

There’s a lot more in this release, see the release notes for details.

When is the final release?

Version 3.6 will be officially released after the beta phase is completed. Generally the beta for a minor release lasts around 2-3 weeks, but it can vary. An official release is only made once we deem it to be stable.
