The last twelve months of shipping.

Major versions and headline capabilities. Each ships across both production tenants on the same deploy day; no per-tenant forks.

v3.7
Private notes, internal credit transfer, and delegated access
2026-06 · current

A trust-and-control release. Notes gained a real privacy primitive, account credit can move between customers in a few clicks with a full audit trail, managers can delegate reach to an assistant, and the debit-order rail to FNB closed its last manual step.

  • Private (DM) notes — mark any note or task private so it’s visible only to its officer and assignees, hidden even from admins with view-all rights, with need-to-know area visibility and a Confidential category for management-only matters
  • Internal Credit Transfer — move account credit from one customer to another by name or UCN, with a live before-and-after preview, an automatic service re-check on the receiving account, and a full audit trail
  • Personal Assistants — assign a PA to a manager so they’re reachable and escalatable wherever the manager is, with per-link “can see notes” and “auto-escalations” toggles and zero added authority
  • Note Groups & configurable auto-close — organise the category/reason picker into named, drag-reorderable groups, and set per-type inactivity windows so throwaway quick-notes close themselves as “Auto-closed (stale)”
  • FNB debit-order automation — submit debit-order batches through FNB’s EFT Collections API and import FNB’s load-result files to flag rejected collections automatically
  • Notes Journal polish — a per-user selectable sort order, an “Awaiting you” reply indicator, a closed-note freeze that keeps the record honest, and the unread bell count mirrored into the browser tab title
v3.6
Prepayment revenue & maintenance-aware support
2026-05

A focused point release on two operator wins: a new way to take money up front, and an assistant that stops treating planned-maintenance complaints as emergencies.

  • Optional prepayment bills — staff can offer a customer a multi-month prepayment that defers service activation until it is paid, with one-off optional charges, a period/tier picker (“pay six, get seven”), and a three-layer guard that makes accidental double-payment impossible
  • Maintenance-aware AI triage — when a customer complains during a scheduled-maintenance window, Aelita recognises it and replies with the planned window instead of escalating the ticket as a fault
  • NAS & IPACCT spotlight — a new deep-dive on the IPACCT NAS integration brings contract-driven provisioning, the tolerance grace period and live in-contract usage together in one place, at /network-nas
v3.5
Visual workflows, idiot-proof field, capacity-aware scheduling
2026-05

A tight stabilisation cycle that turned three of v3.4's biggest investments into the experiences they were meant to be. Status workflows became a visual graph editor. The Field PWA on-site flow lost every "what do I do next?" moment. The Schedule Calendar acquired a lens so dispatch managers see capacity, not coverage. Plus illegal-ONU enforcement on the network side and ONU-lifecycle config integrity.

  • Visual Status Workflow editor — drag-to-connect transitions, inspector side-panel, inherited rules ghosted in, system transitions visually locked, per-(type, area) layout persisted across sessions. The list view stays as a fallback toggle
  • Field PWA on-site capture, idiot-proofed — spec-driven flow always on, step-by-step guide as the visual spine, live photo-phase progress indicator, persistent camera-blocked banner instead of a one-shot toast, dead "Phase-1 fallback" retired
  • Schedule Calendar v3.9 — capacity-focus lens that dims unrelated events, team-scoped roster respecting user access, header lens-hint strip, hover tooltip with note detail on every event card, footer legend cleaned up
  • Illegal ONUs page — OLT and slot/port filters surface unauthorised ONUs before they reach the billing path
  • Dedicated SVLAN preserved through ONU lifecycle — the SVLAN provisioned at contract activation survives ONU replace, return, and re-issue cycles; IPACCT gating prevents the "active service on a non-billing record" drift
  • aj_table cascading filters — second-level filter dropdowns auto-narrow when a parent filter changes, across every admin list that uses aj_table
v3.4
Field PWA, Mission Control, and chat-native Aelita
2026-05

The biggest mobile addition since the platform began: the Field UI — a phone-first PWA that replaces paper-and-WhatsApp dispatch for field technicians. Same release ships a Mission Control cockpit for the admin dashboard, Dispatch Board v3 with eleven new affordances, and Aelita as a chat participant in Nextcloud Talk groups.

  • Field UI — install-to-home-screen PWA with today's task list, GPS-logged on-site steps, ONU serial scan, photo uploads, customer signature, confirmation selfie, auto-emailed protocol PDF, 2FA, and an online/offline indicator
  • Stats Mission Control cockpit — live sFlow uplink throughput, USER BANDWIDTH headline, pending/late split, payment-method collection bar, peering link, mobile pass
  • Dispatch Board v3 — persistent URL routing, drag-to-resize duration, click-empty to quick-add, status filter chips, overdue chips, Field UI sync callout, keyboard shortcuts, hover tooltips, idiot-proof drag
  • Aelita as a Nextcloud Talk participant — talk to Aelita inside any Nextcloud chat group; per-agent ACL across both tenants; group/DM wake-word gate
  • Sales Directory phonebook, Note Forms template library (Phase 2.7a), Ask Aelita usage reporting, configuration dark-mode sweep across 47 templates, tablet responsive floor raised to 1199px
v3.3
Live network telemetry & self-service audit
2026-04

  • Portal Badger one-click connection repair
  • Fibre outage cluster-detect
  • Live PBX dashboard with agent status
  • Stale-record smart-cleanup
v3.1

Release cadence

Quarterly majors. Weekly point releases.

The release cadence has been quarterly major versions and weekly point releases for over a decade. Every release ships to all production tenants on the same day. No per-tenant forks. No "release for tenant A first, see what breaks, then ship to tenant B." Same code, both tenants, same deploy.

Point releases ship Tuesdays. Major versions ship on a planned date with a 2-week stabilisation window after.
