What’s New in Version 1.52

What’s New

• With help from @Plaid, bank accounts can now be verified instantly using your online banking credentials (microdeposit verification works too, don’t worry).
• Enhancements to the Contractor Curtain™ make it easier to protect the privacy of the contracts and agreements you make. You can read more about it on our blog at BuildPay.com. (https://buildpay.com/2019/05/contractor-curtain/)(opens in a new tab)
• A new view of contractor/subcontractor progress on the Members tab includes the percentage of contract complete and the status of each members’ agreements in the system.
• If you buy materials on a project, the value of your materials budget is now automatically loaded onto your BuildPay materials card; helping you get back to work faster.

Fixes

• We’ve built a handy reminder banner so that BuildPay can display important information to users. It’s yellow, you can’t miss it.
• Unicode characters are no longer supported as field input. If you try to use them, we’ll display a nice, orderly error message.
• Very rarely, the link to a user’s bank account would break because of changes outside of BuildPay’s control. An easy-to-use repair link will now appear in those situations.
• There’s now a character limit on the “Bank Account Nickname” field. It was getting out of hand.

Operations

• Upgraded the BuildPay developers’ building environments to Ubuntu 18.04
• Updated Angular
