Product updates

November 2023

ATTENTION! We are currently working on some changes to the backend system that deals with login. This will not have major impacts to begin with, but it will make it possible for us to eventually implement, among other things, two-factor authentication for logging into Catacloud. 

This change will cause some downtime in the system 29.11 at 18:00.

If you experience errors in the system after this, the solution will be to log out and back in. If you still experience errors, you must contact our customer service via chat or phone 960 03 377.

Locking of accounting periods

Catacloud has now launched a new and improved version of accounting closure. You can find this under administration -> accounting.

To lock a period, select a date you want to lock to. Once a date has been selected, it is not possible to edit the accounts before this date. If you have to edit the accounts, you have the option to unlock the accounts. You do this by choosing a "lock date" back in time. It is important to enter a comment for why the period was reopened.
History with who has locked, unlocked as well as date and comment is saved and available.

"Registrants who store recorded information electronically as a basis for
preparation of specifications of mandatory accounting reporting, shall close
the accounting periods." Ref NBS 1, ch 8.1. This also applies to those who do not submit a VAT return.

Invoicing

Launched support for subscriptions (ie recurring billing). This will give you as a user a simpler and more efficient way to manage regular invoicing.

With this new function, you will now be able to create subscriptions for services or products that you invoice regularly to your customers. You will also be able to set up different billing plans, such as weekly, monthly or yearly, depending on your needs.

By using invoice subscription, the program will automatically generate your invoices and send them out to your customers at the agreed times. This will give you a simpler and more streamlined invoicing process, and you will also be able to save time and resources.

We hope this new function will be of great help to you and your company. If you have questions or need help setting up subscriptions in the accounting program, you can contact our customer support.
