You must take note of the news identified with this icon since it highly modifies Akuiteo's current behavior or it adds significant value. |
| DMF | 0408** PURCHASES BILLING SCHEDULES BILLING SCHEDULES |
Before, the billing schedule creation from the purchase order (Management > Purchases > Purchase orders then Edit > New billing schedule) needed the DMF 040311 PURCHASES ORDERS CANCEL.
From now on, the creation of supplier billing schedules from an order requires the 040801 PURCHASES BILLING SCHEDULES NEW DMF.
| DMF | 0415** PURCHASES EXPENSE REPORTS * |
From now on, the Expense type label column, displaying the expense label, is available from:
- In the search results of the expense reports (Management > Purchases > Expense report);
- In the table of an expense report (My Akuiteo > My expense reports > Expense report tab).

Important
This feature requires enabling the following feature flag: Technique domain > Jetons Api label. To enable it, go to the Administration console > Configuration > Features, enable the Jetons Api feature flag then log in again.
API tokens are only use to access Akuiteo API resources, in replacement of the Oauth2 authentication. They allow you to identify and the authentication to third-parties app accessing the Akuiteo API resources. In this context, the API tokens menu (Administration console > Security > API tokens) has evolved.
Search criteria added
To make the search of a token easier, the Users and Status search criteria have been added and allows you to filter the displayed tokens.
Feature added to regenerate a token
The icon is now available in the Actions column of the API tokens table. This feature allows you to regenerate a token by specifying a new expiration date for this token without having to specify all required information again. If the Expiration date is not specified, then the token is regenerated for a year by default.
This icon is grayed out and it is not possible to click on it when the token is expired or revoked.
New API tokens expiration notifications section
The new API tokens expiration notifications section is available at the bottom of the API tokens screen. It allows you to set up:
- the Email address to notify when API tokens expire which is receiving an email when a token is about to expire.
- the Reminder period before expiration (days) to apply to notify the person before a token expires. When this field is empty, a default duration of 30 days is applied.

Important
This evolution requires enabling the following feature flag: Portail admin Domain > Pause Cqrs Label. To enable it, go to the Administration console > Configuration > Features, enable the Pause Cqrs feature flag then log in again.
A CQRS table is a copy of an existing database table. It contains less information, allows you to read easily its data in some cases, such as, when starting a search.
Importing data to these tables, when creating or modifying multiple objects at the same time, can saturate the system and causes performance issues for the users.
The new CQRS Pause - Controlling the CQRS update menu allows you to put temporarily on hold the processing of the CQRS Assignment and/or CQRS Employee tables in order to prevent a server saturation.
The user can chose the strategy to apply when putting on hold the tables among:
- Discard - Recommended when the import has over 10,000 items. It is the default strategy.
- Stack - Recommended when the import has less than 10,000 items.
More information about the drawbacks and benefits of each strategy is available when hovering over the available in the putting on hold window.
The tables imports are:
- putted on hold when clicking on Pause CQRS.
- resumed when clicking on Resume CQRS.
This feature is only available for mono-server environment.

0901** ADMINISTRATOR SETUP * 0902** ADMINISTRATOR SETUP SETUP |
Important
This evolution requires enabling the following feature flag: Portail achats domain > Statut Fac Achat Label. To enable it, go to the Administration console > Configuration > Features, enable the Statut Fac Achat feature flag then log in again.
A webhook is used to notify an external system of an event occurring in Akuiteo. From now on, a webhook can be set up to send a request when a dematerialized invoice reaches a specific dematerialization status.
In the Administration console > Configuration > Webhooks > New webhook > Event type field, the Dematerialization status type has been added.
When the Event type is Dematerialization status, the following actions are available in the Event action(s) drop-down list and correspond to dematerialization statuses:
- 204 - Taken into account;
- 205 - Approved;
- 206 - Partially approved;
- 207 - In conflict;
- 208 - On hold;
- 210 - Rejected;
- 211 - Payment transferred;
- 212 - Cashed.
The webhook will then send a request when a dematerialized invoice reaches the status selected from the Event action(s) drop-down list. The request contains the external reference of the dematerialized invoice.
Example
I want to create a webhook to send a request when a dematerialized invoice reaches the Cashed status.
In the webhook creation screen, I select the following options:
- Event type: Dematerialization status
- Event action(s): 212 - Cashed
Note
For the Dematerialization status event type:
-
The INSERT action sends a request when a temporary or booked invoice reaches a dematerialization status for the first time. The request is sent without details of the dematerialization status, regardless of which dematerialization status from the listed options is reached.
-
The UPDATE action sends a request when the dematerialization status of a booked invoice is modified. The request is sent without details of the dematerialization status, regardless of which dematerialization status from the listed options is reached.
-
The DELETE action has no use but remains visible.
DESTINATAIRES parameter added to email the list of processed sessions
| DMF |
0901** ADMINISTRATOR SETUP SETUP 1803** TRAINING SESSIONS * |
The RecupFeuillesCollectivesBSOFT batch (Desktop Application > Tools > Setup > Batches > Batch creation and modification) allows retrieving sign-in sheets for training sessions completed and signed via the Bsoft connector, and merging them into a single document.
The DESTINATAIRES parameter has been added to the RecupFeuillesCollectivesBSOFT batch, allowing users to specify recipients in order to send an email containing the list of processed sessions.
The following codes are available and correspond to the fields in the Managers section of a session (Training > Sessions then Session tab > Managers section):
RESP_SESSION;RESP_COM;RESP_FINANCIER;RESP_PRODUCTION;FORMATEUR.
Codes must be separated by ";".
At the end of the batch processing, an email is sent to each manager involved. The email includes the list of processed sessions associated with the manager.
| DMF | 1802** TRAINING INTERNSHIPS INTERNSHIPS |
The Bsoft connector allow the trainees to access the signing-in sheet in electronic format by scanning a QR code or clicking a link given by the application and signing it. The signing-in indicates the participation of the trainee to the training.
Before, when the training session was synchronized with Bsoft (Training > Sessions then Edit > Confirm and synchronize to the electronic signing tool), the email address of the trainees (Session > Registration file > Participant(s) tab) was not retrieved in the Bsoft space and required to be inputted manually.
Now, the email addresses of the participants for the synchronized session appear in the Bsoft space of the company.
If the contact (People > Contacts) matching the participant:
- is linked to multiple customers (General tab > Contact details of the contact at Customer xxx section) then the email address of the customer for the training session (File tab > Administrative information section) is displayed in Bsoft.
- is linked to multiple customer sites (People > Customers > Sites tab) for the same customer then the email address matching the main customer site is displayed in Bsoft.
- is linked to multiple customers sites for the same customer and the email address matching the main customer site cannot be retrieved then the email address of the older customer site is displayed in Bsoft.
- has no email address specified in the Contact details of the contact at Customer xxx section then the email of the Identity section is displayed in Bsoft.
| DMF |
1805** TRAINING TRAINERS TRAINERS 1808** TRAINING SETUP SETUP |
A Bsoft organization (Desktop Application > Tools > Setup > Organizations > Organizations) can be synchronized to Bsoft from the organization record sheet > Edit > Synchronize.
Previously, after synchronizing an organization, the trainer IDs in the Bsoft space > Animateurs category would match the trainer identification numbers visible in the trainer search results (Training > Trainers) in the Ident column.
Now, the trainer IDs in the Bsoft space match:
- The employee number specified in the trainer's employee record sheet (People > Employees) under the Employee tab > Details section > Employee number field;
- The trainer ID number if the employee number is not specified on the employee record sheet or if the trainer is not linked to an employee.
| DMF | 1803** TRAINING SESSIONS * |
A session (Training > Sessions) can be rescheduled from the session record sheet in Edit > Modify the programming.
On the rescheduling window, the Reschedule evaluations box has been added and is checked by default.
When the box is checked, the evaluation dates in the Evaluation tab (Proposed date column) are shifted by the same number of days as the rescheduling applied based on the New start date specified in the window. Evaluation dates can be rescheduled both in the past and in the future.

| DMF | 020426 SALES DELIVERIES CUSTOMER BILLING EXPENSES AND TIME SPENT |
The intra-group rebilling (Management > Sales > Intra-group rebilling of expenses and timesheets) allows you to rebill timesheets and expense reports lines.
Now, the By default, intragroup rebilling parameter has been added in the expenditure type setup (Tools > Setup > General setup > Expense reports > Expenditure type then Type section). It allows you to select the rebilling type to apply for the expenditure type among the following options:
- the refunded amount - it is the default option,
- the amount entered,
- nothing.
Note
The Rebillable box of the expense creation form is never taken into account for the intra-group rebilling.
In the intra-group rebilling screen, the behaviour of the Can be rebilled search criterion of the Expense filters section has also been modified. Now, it takes into account the new By default, intragroup rebilling parameter of the expenditure type. When the criterion is on Yes, only the expense reports lines for which the the refunded amount or the amount entered option are selected in the setup of the expenditure type will be displayed in the table of the Rebilling section.
Note
If a setup was done for the expenditure types used for the intra-group rebilling before this evolution, then it must be reviewed when installing this version.
| DMF | 0409** PURCHASES TEMPORARY INVOICES * |
Important
This evolution requires enabling the following feature flag: Portail achats domain > Statut Fac Achat Label. To enable it, go to the Administration console > Configuration > Features, enable the Statut Fac Achat feature flag then log in again.
In the Purchase Portal > Temporary invoices, the External reference (AP) has been added in the Dematerialization information section in temporary invoices and correspond to the unique number that identifies the dematerialized invoice at the Approved Platform (AP).
From now on, when a Factur-X is imported by the DematReceptionFacturesAchat * batch:
- if a JSON file matching the Factur-X is present in the directory and contains an external reference, this reference is retrieved in the new External reference (AP) field in the temporary invoice created;
- if no JSON file matches the Factur-X in the directory, the external reference will be randomly generated in the UUID format and specified in the External reference (AP) field of the temporary invoice created.
Each JSON file must:
- have the same name as the associated Factur-X file.
- contain the external reference in UUID format in the
externalReferencekey.
Example
The directory contains the Factur-X file named invoice0123.pdf.
The associated JSON file must therefore be named invoice0123.json and contain the reference in the following format:
{
"externalReference": "06c6e568-d143-4cd4-853d-e21a693cf98e"
}
Note
When manually importing from the Purchase Portal, only one file can be imported at a time therefore the JSON file is not processed and the external reference is always generated randomly.
A function has been added to allow modification of the external reference for a temporary invoice. It is accessible via the icon at the top of a temporary invoice screen > Update external reference (AP). The new DMF 040921 PURCHASES TEMPORARY INVOICES MODIFY EXTERNAL REFERENCE (AP) is required and the temporary invoice must be in the To be processed state.
Then specify the new external reference in the window.
| DMF | 0409** PURCHASES TEMPORARY INVOICES * |
From the Purchase Portal > Temporary invoices, the icon for downloading a temporary invoice's PDF from search results has been replaced with the
icon.
Furthermore, the DMF 040905 040905 PURCHASES TEMPORARY INVOICES PRINT required to download a temporary invoice has been renamed PURCHASES TEMPORARY INVOICES DOWNLOAD PDF FROM SEARCH.

Important
This feature requires the following feature flag: Portail Collaborateur domain > Facilitation Saisie Temps label. To enable it, go to the Administration console > Configuration > Features, enable the Facilitation Saisie Temps feature flag then log in again.
From now on, on the Web Portal > Employee > Timesheets & schedules, suggestions for timesheet entries can be automatically generated for the displayed week, based on the events present in the employee’s Outlook calendar for the same week.
By default, the assignments for the generated suggestions are left blank but can be predicted and specified automatically using AI.
New CONNECT_CALENDRIER management rule
The CONNECT_CALENDRIER management rule has been added (Desktop Application > Tools > Setup > General setup > Special parameters > Management rules) and must be enabled to generate timesheet entry suggestions.
The management rule contains the External calendar parameter, enabling you to define the calendar tool in use. Currently, only the OUTLOOK value is available.
Important
For the management rule to work:
- SAML authentication must be enabled and set up (see Configuring the SAML authentication).
- An AES encryption key must be configured on the Akuiteo server. This key corresponds to the
-Dak.secretargument when starting the Akuiteo server. - The connection to Exchange via Microsoft Graph API must be configured (see Configuration for Microsoft Graph).
- The timesheet entry mode for timesheet entries must be set to hours-minutes or hours-hundredths (see Time input mode).
For more information, refer to CONNECT_CALENDRIER.
New feature to generate timesheet entry suggestions in the agenda
From the Web Portal > Employee > Timesheets & schedules, the CONNECT_CALENDRIER icon has been added to the right of the search field. It is only visible when the management rule is enabled and the user has the new DMF 060364 PROJECTS TIMESHEETS TIMESHEET SUGGESTIONS.
This icon triggers the extraction of events from the employee’s external calendar and generates the corresponding timesheet entry suggestions. The process runs as a background task. The list of background tasks can be accessed via the icon in the portal's upper bar.
For more information about the tasks list, refer to Upper bar.
The generated suggestions are then displayed in the calendar and marked with the icon. These suggestions must then be completed before they can be converted into timesheet entries.
For more information, refer to Generating timesheet entry suggestions.
New setup screen for AI assignment prediction
In the Settings Portal, the Assignment prediction setup screen has been added under the Employee menu > Calendar and requires the new DMF 090188 ADMINISTRATOR SETUP ASSIGNMENT PREDICTION. This screen allows you to set up the connection to an AI model that will predict and automatically specify the assignments for timesheet entry suggestions.
For more information, refer to Setting up AI assignment prediction.
New feature to predict assignments with AI for the generated suggestions
If assignment prediction has been enabled in the Settings Portal and the user has the new DMF 060365 PROJECTS TIMESHEETS PREDICT ASSIGNMENTS FOR MY SUGGESTIONS, a window will appear after generating suggestions in the top-right corner of the screen, offering to predict assignments for the generated proposals.
Select the desired option from the window:
- Yes, search for assignments to predict and automatically specify the assignments for the generated suggestions. If the AI finds no matching history, the suggestion will remain unassigned
. Suggestions with AI-predicted assignments are marked with the
icon.
Important
Assignment prediction is based only on the history of previously completed and approved/rejected suggestions from past weeks. As a result, prediction accuracy will be limited during initial use but will improve over time as the user approves or rejects suggestions week after week.
- No, I will do it myself to leave the assignments blank and specify them manually. If this option was selected or the window was dismissed, assignments can be predicted later via the
in the portal’s upper bar > corresponding task details > Predict assignments.
Suggestions with predicted assignments can already be converted into timesheet entries, but can still be modified if needed.

When creating the entry, the Project column was empty by default and could only be specified manually.
From now on, it is possible to associate a default project to each type of payment difference in the setup screen of payment differences (Tools > Setup > General setup > Banking > Payment difference).
The Linked project column has been added in the Accounts section and allows you to specify for each type of payment difference, the default project to specify on the entry line.
When creating the entry to balance the payment difference, if the project:
- is specified in the setup then it is automatically specified in the Project column of the entry line and can be modified.

From a validated order (Management > Sales > Orders), lines can be delivered from:
-
Edit > Deliver the order on quantities / Deliver the order on quantities (in %) / Deliver the order on the amounts.
-
the Lines tab > right-click on a selection of lines > Deliver the selected lines.
Previously, when delivering lines whose Billing type was Recurrent and whose Periodicity was Unique, the creation of a contract was suggested, and these lines were included in the generated delivery.
From now on, lines whose Billing type is Recurrent (line details > Billing type field) are always excluded from the delivery, whether the Periodicity is Unique or not. Delivering and billing must be managed exclusively through a contract.
In addition, a check has been added when delivering order lines. If an order line has its Billing type set to Recurrent, but no template service is specified on the associated sold product sheet (Management > Sales > Sold items, then General tab > Related service section > Template service field), the following message is now displayed:

For the group and internal subcontracting, management objects are created as mirror images. Thus, purchase and sales orders and invoices has the same lines and the same assignments. When these objects are created, they are validated and cannot be modified.
Now, for the single-project customer orders created from the subcontracting (Management > Sales > Orders), the phase, sub-phase and task can be modified by doing a right-click from a selection of lines in the Lines tab > Modifying phases/sub-phases/tasks of selected lines.
If the order is single-project / single-phase, the assignment is also modified in the Header tab > Project section.

Invoices (Management > Sales > Invoices) can be booked:
-
individually from an invoice record sheet via Edit > Book the invoice or Book and print the invoice;
-
in batches by right-clicking on a selection of search results > Book the selected invoices/credit notes.
From now on, if the payment method is set to Debit and no active mandate (Banking > Direct debit mandates) is associated with either the billing site or the billed customer, an error message prevents the invoice from being booked:
Notes
A mandate is active when the Status code on the mandate sheet is Open.
The mandate associated with the billing site takes priority. If there is no active mandate for the billing site, the billed customer’s mandate is used.
This check is also applied when changing the payment method on a booked invoice:
-
from the hyperlink at the top of the invoice screen;
-
when updating payment terms in batch, accessible by right-clicking on a selection of results > Update > Update terms and conditions.
In addition, the following direct debit information has been added to the XML of generated sales Factur-X invoices:

VATEX codes are standardized codes used in electronic invoicing to indicate the legal reason for VAT exemption, reverse charge, or non-application of VAT.
From now on, on invoices (Management > Sales > Invoices), the Exemption (VATEX) field has been added in the Header tab, under the General information section, and allows you to specify a VATEX code. The help list provides the VATEX codes available under European legislation.
By default, the code specified is:
-
VATEX-EU-G if the country of the delivery site is outside the EU;
-
VATEX-EU-IC if the country of the delivery site is in the EU and all lines have a debit VAT regime;
-
VATEX-EU-IC if the country of the delivery site is in the EU and all lines have a credit VAT regime;
-
left blank in other cases and/or if the country of the delivery site is France.
If the delivery site is changed on the invoice, the Exemption (VATEX) field is updated automatically.
This field is required when the VAT amount on the invoice is zero. When booking the invoice, if the Exemption (VATEX) field is blank while the VAT amount is zero, the following window is displayed:
The VATEX code is then automatically specified in the XML of VAT-exempt sales Factur-X files generated from Akuiteo.
Note
The VATEX code is taken into account as a grouping criterion when merging draft invoices, accessible by right-clicking on a selection of invoice results > Merge of draft invoices, or using the FusionFactures batch. Thus, invoices that do not have the same Exemption (VATEX) code cannot be merged together.

For customer and supplier types that were already created before this evolution, the Type is automatically selected according to the following mappings:
-
Actual person for the customer and supplier type with code PERSONNE PHYSIQUE.
-
Legal entity for the customer and supplier type with code PERSONNE MORALE.
-
Local government for the customer and supplier type with code SERVICE PUBLIC.
Otherwise, outside these mappings, the Type field is empty by default.
This information is then used to determine and automatically populate the processing type in the XML of generated sales Factur-X invoices:
-
B2B (business-to-business) if:
-
the billing site's country is France, and
-
the billed customer's type is Legal entity.
-
-

This evolution requires enabling the following feature flag: Transverse domain > Lock Fact Prestations label. To enable it, go to the Administration console > Configuration > Features, enable the Fact Prestations feature flag then log in again.
In order to enhance the security when billing services made with the FacturationPrestationsDevis batch (Management > Sales > Services billing or Tools > Setup > Batches > Batches creation and modification) in long processing (for example the billing of hundreds of services), a technical improvement has been made.
When a service is being billed, this service is locked in order to prevent billing other services at the same time, and thus to prevent billing a service twice. As long as the processing is not finished, the locked object cannot be billed or updated.

This section displays the following information:
- Last batch start date with the Status, the date on which the process is Completed and the Number of commits;
- Second to last batch start date with the Status, the date on which the process is Completed and the Number of commits.
The Number of commits matches the number of services or billing tables have been processed by the batch.

In the invoice search screen (Management > Sales > Invoices) > Main criteria tab > Wordings, Comments, Arrears Info section, the With no dunning date criterion has been renamed Not dunned for greater clarity and has been moved above the Dunning date between ... and criterion.
Previously, checking the With no dunning date criterion only hid the Dunning date between ... and criterion and did not allow users to specifically search for due dates that have no dunning date.
From now on, the Not dunned criterion still hides the Dunning date between ... and criterion, but it also allows users to specifically search for due dates that do not have a dunning date (from an invoice > Due dates tab > due date details > Dates and due dates section > Dunned on field).
