Greetings FusionInvoicers! We’re excited to announce the release of FusionInvoice 2026-1.1 — This release enhances vendor management, improves VAT/GST flexibility, delivers significant performance optimizations, and resolves numerous bugs across the application.

New Features

Vendor Management

• Vendors promoted from the Configuration menu to the main navigation bar, establishing them as a first-class module alongside Clients, Invoices, and Expenses
• Email capabilities and multiple contacts support for vendors, mirroring the functionality available for clients with polymorphic contact associations

Tax & Financial Reporting

• Flexible VAT/GST reporting flag decouples VAT classification from the tax calculation method, allowing businesses to use exclusive pricing while still correctly categorizing taxes as VAT on the Profit & Loss report
• Profit & Loss report now displays expense subtotals broken out by category

Email & Communication

• Email delivery failure handling flags recipient addresses in client or contact records, preventing further sends until the address is manually cleared or updated

Performance

• Dashboard cold load times reduced by approximately 47%, client view load times improved 30-55%, and per-request middleware overhead virtually eliminated through caching and query optimization

Other Improvements

User Interface

• Log viewer rebuilt for efficient entry loading, eliminating slowdowns on large log files
• Expenses list now respects the global "results per page" system setting
• Client view tasks sorted descending by due date with a "View All" link for clients with more than 15 task records
• Duplicate resource loading eliminated across tabbed views using consolidated library partials

Client Portal

• Client name now displayed in the portal view
• Quotes, Invoices, and ProForma Invoices in Draft status hidden from the client-facing portal

Security

• Cross-site scripting sanitization applied across Contacts, Payments, Vendors, and Clients modules

System

• Custom date format compatibility resolved for due dates in PDF templates
• Lead source tags included in tag cleanup operations
• Demo data seeder updated to reflect 2026-1.0 database changes and new add-ons
• Phrasing corrections and new translations synchronized across all supported language files

Bugs Fixed

User Interface & Dashboard

• Client view blank screen in Chrome caused by duplicate synchronous script loads blocking the HTML parser
• Dashboard task list widget stall preventing subsequent widgets from loading
• Sent invoice widget incorrectly displaying paid invoices instead of filtering to "Sent" status with unpaid balance

Invoices & Documents

• Payment terms incorrectly showing overdue status when project completion terms had no due date set
• mPDF report generation crash and carriage return rendering after upgrade
• Invoice creation failure when clicking the "New" button
• Due dates displaying as decimal numbers instead of integers in reports

Reports & Financial

• Other Income excluded when filtering Profit & Loss report by company profile
• Expense billing invoice selector displaying paid invoices instead of only unpaid or draft invoices

User & System

• Error when editing user profiles caused by a missing policy class reference
• Decimal point setting not accepting a value of 1

Payments & API
