2. New option for changing the status of multiple suppliers

Previously, the status of each supplier had to be changed individually to “Blocked” or “Inactive”.

With version 26.6, you can change the status of several suppliers in a single step. The two new columns “last used”and “last used (years)” are available in the Supplier overview. They allow you to identify and filter when a supplier was last used in the system.

You can then select several suppliers at the same time. The “Change status” button remains active for a multiple selection, allowing you to change the status of all selected suppliers in one operation.

The following statuses are available:

• Active
• Blocked (cannot be used)
• Inactive (only visible in master data)

Provided that no orders or supplier invoices remain for the selected suppliers after a data reorganisation, the suppliers can also be deleted together.

Further information about data reorganisation is available in Release Notes 23.10:

6. “Region” now available in the Leading Job web application

The “Region” module allows you to manage different parts of a country. This is particularly relevant where different holiday regulations apply within the same country, such as in Germany or Austria.

In addition to the regions already supplied as standard, you can create new entries and edit existing ones.

For each region, you can specify the associated Country, Name, and, where required, a Sub code and Sub name.

Together with the Holiday calendar module, this allows you to define which holidays apply to which region. In combination with user settings, different holiday rules can therefore be applied to employees in different regions.

For each holiday, you can define:

For example, a holiday can apply to all regions and agencies in a country, or only to a specific region or agency.
