What's New
-
Ability for law firm vendors without LEDES capabilities to upload a PDF invoice for data extraction and eventual submission to client.
A walk-through of this feature can be viewed here.
Vendor users can now see which clients are “disabled” (still need to pay the subscription fee) without going through the submit invoice/timekeeper rate process; disabled clients will display “Disabled” next to their names in the Switch Client dropdown menu.
If a tiered-volume discount is incorrectly entered into the system (not matching the system-calculated discount), the user-entered value can be automatically adjusted per client request.
After resubmitting matter-level timekeeper Billing Authorization requests, new changes to the requests (newly added timekeepers or rates for pre-approved timekeepers with newly submitted rates) are now highlighted in blue.
If available, the custom staff class shows up on all versions and phases of a Billing Authorization request.
“Address 1” and “Address 2” fields are now in separate invoice lines, making it easier for vendors to match legal entity information.
API users can no longer log into BillingPoint accounts directly and manually submit invoices; added a new user type for BillingPoint API users.
Resolved
On the pending/disputed timekeeper rate page, the “Graduation Date” field is now visible on the timekeeper profile when the “Lawyer” button is checked.
After uploading an Excel timekeeper rate file with an invalid value, the validation error stays on the screen rather than disappearing with a click.
The vendor is no longer able to edit the invoicing currency in the Billing Authorization during the Matter Level Timekeeper entry process.
Timekeeper rates requests are correctly created in the client database.
