Between major releases, Sage introduces smaller enhancements that improve day-to-day usability and streamline common workflows. Below is a simplified overview of the key updates delivered after 2024 R2.
Timesheet Improvements – Sage Intelligent Time
Recall Timesheets
Users can now recall their own timesheets to correct mistakes without needing manager involvement. This is particularly useful for project-based teams who submit weekly timesheets and often spot small errors after submission, allowing corrections without delaying billing.
Improved Time Approvals Experience
The time approvals interface has been redesigned with clearer layouts and more intuitive navigation. Approvers working across multiple projects can now review and approve entries more efficiently, reducing bottlenecks in billing cycles.
AI-Generated Time Entry Descriptions (Beta)
AI can now automatically generate descriptions for time entries, helping teams maintain consistent, professional activity notes. Consultants and engineers who spend large volumes of time find that this significantly reduces admin overhead.
Timesheet Audit Trail Visibility
Audit trails are now accessible directly from timesheets, making it easier for finance teams and project managers to track changes—particularly helpful when clients request clarity on billable time.
International Payments
Canadian Bank File Payments
Organisations operating in or paying suppliers through Canada can now make electronic payments in CAD using bank file payments. This removes manual workarounds for UK companies with Canadian subsidiaries or vendor relationships.
Reporting Enhancements
Language-Agnostic Filters in ICRW
Custom Report Writer now supports a language-agnostic filter that ensures accurate results even when reports contain multilingual data. Multi-entity groups with European subsidiaries benefit from consistent reporting regardless of local language settings.
Credit Card Reconciliation
Import Credit Card Transactions (Early Adopter)
Credit card statements can now be imported using the classic import tool, allowing finance teams to reconcile transactions more quickly. This is especially valuable for organisations with multiple corporate cards, where manual reconciliation was previously time-consuming.
