“Post” on Today opens the draft that is waiting for you
When exactly one draft is waiting on Today, “Post” now opens its review straight away. Until now you landed on the list of drafts and had to find it there. Above that list, a sentence now tells you what to do. A photographed receipt whose payment hasn’t arrived yet shows “Waiting for payment” there. You book it under Bank as soon as the payment is on your bank statement. That way it doesn’t end up in your books twice.
Net tax rate returns now come as a file for the ePortal too
If you use a net tax rate, you can now download your finalized return as a file for the ePortal as well. From 2025, the file names each activity by its ESTV code. You enter that code once with the approved rate, under Settings › VAT registration. If one is missing, Bilanzi tells you which activity before the download. Returns up to 2024 need no code.
Emails about your subscription, invitations and your feedback used to arrive as plain text. Now they look like the other emails from Bilanzi. A button takes you straight into Bilanzi. When a customer replies, the copy you get looks the same, with their message clearly set apart. When you send an invoice, a quote or a reminder by email, your customer also gets a properly laid out email. Your business name sits at the top, followed by your text and the attached PDF.
You can now add a new customer right inside an invoice or a quote
In an invoice, a quote, a job or a recurring invoice, tap “Customer” to open the list of your customers. At the top you search by name, town or email, and each name shows its address. If the customer is missing, tap “Add a new customer”. A name and an address are enough, and the new customer is chosen straight away. In a quote, you add them as a prospect. Payment terms and cash discount now also come from a list in the style of Bilanzi.
Under Subscription, “Continue to payment” now takes you to Stripe’s secure page. Until now this button did nothing, whether for a plan or an AI pack. Before you pay, you also see what is due today. With “Monthly” and “Yearly”, you can tell at once which one is selected. If something goes wrong, the reason appears right below the button.
On a phone, choosing an account under Bank opened a long list across the whole screen. There was no way out of it. Now you type the number or part of the name, and the matching accounts appear right below. Without typing, you see the most likely accounts first. This applies to Book directly and to Settle the line.
On a wide screen, lists such as “Missing receipts”, the journal or the fixed assets sat in a narrow column. Buttons and file names were cut off, and the space next to them stayed empty. These pages now reach as far as Bank and Invoices. In “All receipts”, the upload sits narrow beside or above the list, and the list takes the rest.
Under “Settle the line” in Bank, the fields are now wide enough for their text. You choose the kind of target and the invoice across the full width. The explanation of the kind sits right below its choice. When you open it, you no longer see a red message, just a quiet hint about the next step.
The Features page now shows everything Bilanzi does
The “Features” page is now sorted by area, from receipts and the CRM to payroll and your fiduciary. At the top, you can jump straight to each area. It now covers the CRM, receipts by email, Ask Bilanzi, moving over, your Shopify shop and foreign currencies. A label shows what needs a paid plan. What doesn’t exist yet is gathered at the end.
Your VAT return now comes as a file for the ePortal
Under VAT declaration, you can now download a finalized return as a file. The ESTV’s ePortal reads it, so you no longer type in any figures. You check everything there, add what is missing and file. If rounding makes the ePortal land a few centimes away from your books, Bilanzi tells you beforehand. The file is available for the effective method. With a net tax rate, you still enter the figures yourself.
Bilanzi now recognises a payment by its booking text
When you put a payment on an account under Bank, Bilanzi suggests that account the next time. Until now, this only worked if the statement named the other party in a column of its own. Most banks, though, write only a booking text into their CSV. Bilanzi now recognises the payment by the words in that text, even with a new reference. This also works when you use Settle the line. Payments you have already settled count from today.
If you record an expense just after midnight, Bilanzi now suggests today’s date. The same goes for a photographed receipt without a readable date and for the dates in payroll. Today and the analysis count the new day as well. Until now, the previous day still applied until 1 a.m. in winter and 2 a.m. in summer, and on 1 January even the previous year.
An e-mail without proof of origin now waits in the inbox
Bilanzi files an e-mail only if it can check that it really comes from its sender. If the sender’s domain had no DMARC record, the e-mail used to get lost without a word. Now it waits in the receipt inbox under “Not filed”, and the owner gets an e-mail. There you can take it over or discard it.
With just one bank account, you can now turn any quote into an invoice, even if that account is not ticked as the default. When you write an invoice from a job, a work report or a contact, the sheet now closes after you save. A new recurring invoice shows the period it covers as soon as you save it. Under Settings › Interfaces you can now revoke a token, and it stops working straight away. Under Bank, the “Choose statement” button is readable again. If your sender address is missing, the hint on payment orders now takes you to Settings › Sender.
Accounts, expenses and payroll now work as described
Under Settings › Accounts you now see your fiscal years, your accounts and the account mapping as soon as you open it. The account mapping suggests suitable accounts, and you can save the suggestions as they are. If you choose the monthly mean rate of the ESTV, Bilanzi now keeps that choice after a reload. In expenses, the lines stay in place when you attach a photo right away. In payroll you can see which wage type carries the agreed salary, and only suitable accounts are offered for withholding tax payable. After “Check status”, a saved supplier shows up in the list straight away.
Close your business and change your sign-in address
To start over, you can now close your business under Settings › Organization. Then you set up a new one, on Free too. Nothing is deleted, and we reopen it if you ask. Under More › Account you can also change the address you sign in with. You get two emails for that, one to the old address and one to the new. Your companies and settings stay as they are.
You can now allow suppliers and explain a missing receipt
Some buttons only showed “This action is not available.” and did nothing. You can now allow a supplier as a sender and remove them again. You can explain a missing receipt and record a receipt for recurring entries. In the shop, saving settings, disconnecting, skipping an order, booking a day and taking over customers work too.
In the settings under “Sender”, you can now upload your logo and pick a colour. The logo sits at the top right of your invoices, quotes, order confirmations and reminders. The colour goes on the title, the rules and the table header. The QR payment part stays black on white. Logo and colour come with Starter. An invoice you have already issued keeps its look, even if you change something later.
The pricing page now shows the CRM and everything in Free
The “Pricing” page now also shows the CRM, with contacts, quotes, jobs and work reports. It is part of Free, just like sending invoices and reminders by email. The table gives it its own “CRM” section. It also lists cash discounts, recurring invoices, receipts by email and moving over from Bexio, Banana or Abacus. Two new questions explain what Free includes and that moving over costs nothing.
On a computer, Analysis, Receipts, Accounting, Payroll and Settings now sit right on the left edge. A click shows the whole group right beside it. Under “More” you keep the subscription, help, feedback and your account. On a phone the bar at the bottom stays as it is.
While Bilanzi reads a receipt, the button fills from left to right. When you photograph a receipt, a bar shows the same. That way you can see that Bilanzi is working. The note that it is taking longer now only appears after 30 seconds.
The confirmation for a receipt you email now lists your files, with a button straight to the receipt inbox. If something was not filed, it appears below with the reason. One email may now bring as many receipts as fit into 40 MB, instead of ten at most.
On the morning of 28 September, Bilanzi could not read some receipts. Ask Bilanzi sometimes gave no answer either. Both work again now. If a receipt in your receipt inbox still says “Not read yet”, tap “Have it read”.
When reading a receipt takes longer, Bilanzi tells you why
If reading a receipt takes longer than 15 seconds, the inbox now says so. If the service does not answer, Bilanzi tries a second time on its own. After a minute and a half at most, you know where you stand. If it fails, the receipt does not count towards your month’s receipts.
On a wide screen, your cards now fill the whole left column. “Your year” and its charts follow right below. Your figures and deadlines stay on the right. So there is no gap left, even when little is waiting for you.
Suppliers send their invoices straight to your receipt inbox
Under “Sender” in the settings you now choose which suppliers may send you their invoices directly. With an asterisk you allow every address of a company. Their invoice then lands in your receipt inbox, and on the paid plans Bilanzi reads it straight away. Bilanzi never replies to the supplier, and the copy to your business still goes out. Owners, administrators and your fiduciary change the list.
A short email confirms that your receipt has arrived
When you email a receipt, you now always get a short reply. It lists the files now waiting in your receipt inbox. A link in it takes you straight there.
Bilanzi now reads receipts you email as soon as they arrive
When you email a receipt, Bilanzi now reads it straight away and suggests the entry. If it is the only one, “Today” then shows “Ready to review” with its name and amount. While Bilanzi is reading, the inbox says “Bilanzi is reading it”. It usually takes less than a minute. Every receipt read counts towards your month’s receipts, just like a photo. On the Free plan Bilanzi reads nothing, and the receipt waits for you in the inbox.
Receipts you email now show on “Today” and in the inbox
When you email a receipt, you now find it without searching. “Today” then shows “1 receipt has arrived”, and under “More” a number appears next to “Receipt inbox”. The inbox lists everything that is waiting for you, with where it came from and the date. Tap a row and have the receipt read, or record the expense yourself. Once you accept or decline a suggestion, the next receipt opens by itself. If a suggestion lapsed after thirty days, its receipt is back in the list.
Until now, emails from Bilanzi often arrived in German, even if you had picked French, Italian or English. Bilanzi now keeps your language in your account. The emails it sends you arrive in that language, including those for signing in and resetting your password. When you sign in on a new device, Bilanzi shows your language right away.
