Everything below is live from Friday 6 November 2026. If you have any questions, our support team is happy to help.
Improvements & Fixes
Invoice name available in AP settings for all datasets
You can now update your business name for invoices and standard reports from the Business Details section in AP settings. This applies to both bookkeeping and non-bookkeeping datasets, so you no longer need to log in to BrightBooks to change it. This updates the invoice name only. Registered name changes continue to be made in the Compliance Database.
