Our first release of the year continues the enhancement work to our overall platform performance. This time we’ve concentrated on improving our Cash offering.
Cash
Quicker manual matching
Manual matching is one of the most common actions in our cash processes. With the January release we have significantly improved our system's performance for manual matching of large groups of transactions, improving the efficiency of reconcilers.
Improved reporting through Data Platform
We have updated the cash transaction data schema on Data Platform to enable faster updates. The former view of cash_results is now split into:
- cash_results - containing the standard cash transaction attributes e.g. account ID, currency, amount
- cash_results_custom_field_values - containing all user defined match fields, can be joined with cash_results through record_id.
Another update for the IDs used for matched transactions, to use the match ID (instead of transaction ID). This now aligns with the IDs used in the user interface.
We are rolling out this change gradually to ensure you get the full benefits. Contact your customer success manager for more information.

Description |
Opening and Closing balance values missing in a parent Data Prep process. |
During a Data Prep staging copy promotion, the 'extraction of balances' setting was not copied properly to the parent copy. This was causing missing values in the snapshots. |
Data Prep submission fails with an 'Internal error' message. |
Some submissions failed with 'Internal error' in Data Prep when the NRL rule was using a reference table that contained empty values. |
'Internal error' messages in Data Prep after process promotion. |
In some cases numerous 'Internal error' messages were shown after promotion of a Data Prep process between environments. |
A reference table is not visible in the dropdown list to be picked for NRL creation. |
In instances where there were more than 1000 reference tables in an environment, some reference tables were not appearing as selectable in the dropdown to be used in an NRL. |
A cash process submission failed due to an invalid configuration. |
In some cases after changes to cash process configuration it was not revalidated automatically, causing the runs to fail. |
Creation of a new input fails in Data Prep. |
In cases when the first column of a submitted excel file was empty, Data Prep was not able to properly read the file and the input creation was failing. |
The list of records in a snapshot don't refresh on a screen. |
While switching between snapshots of a Data Prep process, the list of records was not refreshing automatically. A user needed to manually refresh the page. |
Issues with loading date type fields from Excel files. |
In some cases Duco was not able to read the date type fields properly and the values were converted to integers. |
Not possible to disable the option to run a process with carried-over items only. |
The button to run a reconciliation with carried-over items only was still visible after turning the carry-over capability off. |
Failed runs when numeric values are out of range. |
In cases when submitted records contained exponent values out of range (e-100 - e+100), Duco was not able to parse them and failed the run. |
