Bug Fixes

INTEGRATIONS

Clear Closing Date for QuickBooks Online Integrations

Admins using Emburse Spend with QuickBooks Online can now remove an accounting period closing date after it has been entered.

Previously, once a closing date was set, it could only be edited. Removing the date required disconnecting and reconnecting the integration, which also cleared account mappings. This update allows admins to fully clear the closing date directly from the Accounting Integration page, without disrupting existing mappings.

Who is affected? Customers using Emburse Spend with a QuickBooks Online integration.

Deployment schedule: Available to all customers immediately.

CARDS

  • Who is affected: Customers with Emburse Card programs.

  • What action is required: Replace each existing card that you want to continue using with an Emburse Mastercard Small Business Card. See Transition Emburse Cards to Emburse Mastercard Small Business Card for instructions.
