The September release brings early access to a unified view across your reconciliations, more automation in data prep, smoother reconciliation workflows, and new data prep information in your reporting tools.
Ingestion
Automate reference data updates with data prep
You can now use data prep to prepare your reference data before it lands in a reference data table. Load into a data prep process, apply whatever transformations you need, and push the result straight into your reference tables - no more preparing reference data manually outside the platform.

Annotations now follow your document's layout
In AIDP, extracted fields are now ordered to match the layout of the source document, both in the validation view and in the output. This makes it faster to check extracted data against the original document, and gives you a predictable field order to build integrations against.
Reconciliation
Multi reconciliation view (MRV)
See exceptions from multiple linked reconciliations in one place. MRV allows you to investigate a break across all sources from a single screen, with direct navigation into the underlying exception, without any switching between tabs or re-keying information. Operations leaders now get one point of visibility across all the processes, and can assign a connected break to the right investigator in a single action.
Your existing reconciliations keep running exactly as they do today. The MRV sits on top of these processes as an additional interactive layer, so there is no need to rebuild anything and every exception stays traceable back to its source reconciliation. Permissions are also inherited automatically from your underlying processes, so there's no extra setup for your team.
Consider this new setup for scenarios such as comparing books, bank statements and account balances, or bringing together front office, middle office and custodian views of the same trade.
The MRV can already be used to investigate breaks across two 2-sided reconciliations and we are working to expand it further.

Clearer highlighting in staging copy reviews
When reviewing a staging copy change request, Duco now highlights only the part of a field that has actually changed, rather than the whole field or the entire rule. This applies to both non-system and system-required change request pages.
Easier to spot filtered columns in result grids
The filtered columns counter at the bottom of the grid now lists every filtered column by name. Select a column from that list and it briefly highlights the whole column in the grid, making it quick to find without scrolling across the table.
Faster manual actions on large selections
Manual actions - including starting and stopping review, closing, reopening, reassigning, allocating to a group, and breaking apart matches or rollups - are now significantly faster when applied to a large number of results or cash transactions at once. This also applies to manual matching. You'll notice the biggest performance improvement on bulk actions across large selections. This is a performance improvement only - there's no change to the functionality or how you use these actions.
Platform
Continuing our platform UI modernisation
This release, we've migrated the submissions routing page to our newer technology. This change moves us towards better consistency, better user experience and faster Duco platform overall, as more pages move over in the future releases.
Easier access to API documentation
The API documentation page has moved to the main menu, making it easier to find. We've also retired the data platform page - the same information is now available as a Help Centre articles:
Reporting
Track data prep activity in your reporting tools
Reporting database now includes two new views covering Duco data prep processes. The data_prep_inputs view lists every data prep input alongside its format and sub-format, the process it belongs to, its parent input, parsing settings, and - where an input routes to AIDP - the linked project and document type names. This gives you a single, queryable reference for how your data prep configuration is set up across processes.
The companion data_prep_submission_processings view exposes the processing history of each submission: the file name, upload method, process, and the timestamps for when it was queued, started, and finished, together with its status and resulting snapshot. It also includes record counts for submitted, filtered, errored rows, and the resolved record schema for each processing pass. Joined via data_input_id, the two views let you track data prep throughput, monitor failures, and reconcile volumes against your configured inputs directly from your reporting tools.
