πŸ”§ WHAT'S IMPROVED
Entity Details are lookin' sharp
Our design team has been working hard to make your experience better. Part of this means standardizing field types and we've applied the standardizations to the Entity Details page first. This refresh will help you navigate the information faster and direct your gaze to what's important. Check it out and be sure to let us know what you think!

Custom Report title given more focus
To make it more obvious what Custom Report you're running, we've given the Custom Report title a new look! If you're not happy with the name, you can still change it. Simply click on the Action menu and you'll find the option to rename it there. Remember: to edit a report you'll need to be the owner––this goes for renaming as well.

🐞 WHAT'S FIXED
  • We added validation so when issuing shares you can't issue them without a shareholding name
  • When using the app in French, the buttons in Custom Reports were not resizing properly––you can now see the full contents of all buttons and dropdowns en Francais
πŸ”§ WHAT'S IMPROVED
Jurisdiction filter for templates includes Registration Jurisdiction(s)
This means Registration Compliance Tasks just got easier to use! Previously, the Jurisdiction filter only included templates relevant for the home jurisdiction of an entity making it tricky to find the document you needed to generate. Now, the filter will include jurisdictions based on the home jurisdiction in addition to the jurisdiction(s) of any registration(s) associated with the entity.
🀫
SPOILER ALERT:
To make this even more functional, we will limit the registration compliance tasks to only return templates relevant to the jurisdiction of the registration selected. So keep your eyes on this space to be the first to find out when it's released!
🐞 WHAT'S FIXED
  • We were accidentally sending multiple notifications to some users about reminders in Athennian. Instead of multiple reminders, users will now get the one reminder requested
✨ WHAT'S NEW
E-file status on Formation Tasks
In order to keep you up to date on your e-file tasks we have added the status of your filing on the task it is associated with. You can now see whether your Formation filing is Complete, Pending, Excepted, or Cancelled simply by going to the task and checking the Formation section of the task.
πŸ”§ WHAT'S IMPROVED
PII is not accessible to users with Read-Only permissions
Keeping personally identifiable information (PII) private is a full-time job. To help make it easier, we have removed all PII fields from Read-Only user views.
🐞 WHAT'S FIXED
  • Amalgamation Tasks were using the task completion date as the end date for a principal. This is fixed so it's using the Effective Date instead.
✨ WHAT'S NEW
.DOC files can be previewed
.DOC files were introduced in 1997. We know you have records that date back that far, so we made sure those documents of yore can be viewed in Athennian today––and beyond.
πŸ”§ WHAT'S IMPROVED
Start date for the first previous name is Incorporation Date
When changing the name of an entity we left you wondering "When did this entity's name first get implemented?" Well, there will be no more wondering! The start date of the first previous name for an entity will now be automatically included using the entity's Incorporation Date. If the start date of the first previous name of an entity remains blank in your records, simply go to the Compliance section of the entity and enter the entity's Incorporation Date.

🐞 WHAT'S FIXED
  • A second entity name change could not be completed if the date for it was later than the first entity name change. Now, it can.
  • We removed the additional Task ID column that was unintentionally added as the first column to all XLSX exports of Custom Reports and got the CSV exports populating again
✨ WHAT'S NEW
Export Custom Reports as XLSX
CSVs can be tricky when it comes to formatting. That's why we've given you the new option to download your Custom Report as an XLSX file as well! Check out the new formatting by downloading your favourite report today.
Screen Shot 2021-09-13 at 17
πŸ”§ WHAT'S FIXED
  • When sorting principals by descending order, and then switching the order of one or more individuals, the order of all principals was reversed
✨ WHAT'S NEW
Link to Tasks from Custom Reports
When you generate a Custom Report for Tasks you can now navigate directly to the Task from the Custom Report. Be sure to include the
Task Memo Description
in your columns when you run the report; the Memo Description is now a hyperlink that will take you straight to the task at hand.

πŸ”§ WHAT'S IMPROVED
Delete Options and Warrant Plans
Don't worry, if you ever tried to delete an Option or Warrant Plan it wasn't you, it was us. But we've changed and you can now delete any Option or Warrant plan as long as there are no grants associated with the plan. If grants have been made through the plan, simply delete those associated grants first, and then the plan can be deleted as well.
When copying a Custom Report you're brought to the copy
Previously, when copying a Custom Report you would remain on the original report. Instead, you will now be brought to your copy so you can continue to work with your new report without having to navigate to find it first.
🐞 WHAT'S FIXED
  • Shareholding addresses were not updating to the new record when an address was updated
  • When previewing a file in the Virtual Mintue Book from the Table of Contents, instead of showing a preview, the document would download
  • The recently viewed document section on the Dashboard was not updating when a document was viewed from an entity's document section
✨
WHAT'S NEW
Cap Table decimal points now match what is set in Administration > Precision
Consistency is key when it comes to working with numbers! Being able to set the decimal value you wish to see when working in the securities transactions now flows through to our Cap Table XLSX export so you can guarantee consistency throughout your Athennian Securities experience.
🐞
WHAT'S FIXED
  • It was not possible to search certificates in a task when it was longer than certificates
🐞 WHAT'S FIXED
Some fixes to make your Athennian experience even better!
  • After clearing a date using a date picker, the same date cleared date couldn't be selected again
  • The preview for vesting schedules was not populating
  • The month range modifier in Custom Reports loops through the months
  • When bulk editing Custom Reports the action items were cut off by the drawer
  • It was not possible to download the Virtual Minute Book on a Restricted Team
✨
WHAT'S NEW
Bulk edit issuance transactions
Closing dates, per-share purchase prices and other variables often change during a transaction. Updating each variable one-by-one across dozens or hundreds of issuances is a pain. That's why we've given you the ability to select multiple transactions and update common variables all at the same time! To see it in action:
  • Visit the
    Securities
    section of an entity
  • In the
    Transactions
    tab, select multiple transactions
  • Click the dropdown button (
    # selected
    ) to the right of the
    + New
    button
  • Click
    Edit selected
  • Fill in the details for what you would like to edit!

Watermark your Virtual Minute Book (VMB)πŸ’§

Page numbers in your Virtual Minute Book (VMB), the choice is yours! πŸ”’
To include or not to include page numbers... that may not be the question, but it is an option now. As shown above (sorry for the spoiler without warning 🀭), when downloading your VMB as a PDF you can now choose to include page numbers. If you do not select to include page numbers, page numbers will be omitted from the PDF download of your VMB.
Swaziland has been updated to Eswatini
We've updated the name of Swaziland to Eswatini. Admittedly, we are behind the ball on this as the name was officially changed in 2018. That said, πŸ™ˆ SPOILER ALERT πŸ™Š we're in the midst of automating updates of our jurisdiction lists based on ISO standards so we won't encounter this problem in the future.
🐞
WHAT'S FIXED
  • When setting the Summary Only (Default) option in template settings, the settings for all other templates were removed
  • Templates for coded documents could not be downloaded
  • Tags for Tasks were not appearing in the Custom Report downloads
πŸ”§ WHAT'S IMPROVED
Leave on Certificate has been relocated πŸ›©
The ability to leave the balance of shares on a certificate just got obvious. This feature used to be inconspicuously off to the side. We've given it a new home so it's easier to find and falls in line with the workflow for completing a transfer of shares.

Task and Entity creation dates in Custom Reports
You can now include the date an entity or task were created in Athennian in your Custom Reports! Simply add the Entity Creation Date and/or Task Creation Date to a new or existing report.
Cap Tables get a facelift πŸ§–β€β™€οΈ
To make it easier to share your Cap Tables, they've been spruced up one more time. With their new look your Cap Tables reach a new level of professionalism the moment you click generate!

Select Entity Sub-type and Professional when creating a new Entity
Forgetful about entity sub-types or marking an Entity as Professional? No problem! Sub-type and the Professional tickbox are now available when generating an entity from scratch so you don't have to remember to add these details after the entity is created.

No empty folders in PDF Virtual Minute Books
Ever download your Virtual Minute Book as a PDF to find empty headers? Yeah, we thought that was confusing too. Now, when downloading your Virtual Minute Book as a PDF, if a folder is empty, it won't be included in the PDF. But don't worry, it still lives in the VMB on Athennian, it just won't be included in the PDF until it has contents.
🐞 WHAT'S FIXED
  • Athennian E-sign was working for newly uploaded documents
  • Read-only users were not able to click on transaction, certificate, or shareholding rows
