About this Release
This is a major release with a lot of new features and a few under-the-hood optimisations and fixes across the apiculus® system.
New Feature - Digital Signature
Apiculus® now supports invoices to be electronically authenticated using digital signing solutions. If enabled, all invoices generated on apiculus® will be electronically authenticated and will show a digital signature on download.
New Feature - EC2 Provisioning
apiculus® now supports provisioning of EC2 instances as part of the AWS Subscription module. Subscribers can choose/specify the AWS region, AMI name, instance type and a name for the instance to create an EC2 instance from the apiculus. Additionally, subscribers can also view a lot more information on their EC2 instances on apiculus® CloudConsole.
New Feature - KYC / Document-based Identity Verification
Administrators and account managers can now carry out identity verification processes (know your customer) on the apiculus® admin console. Account admins can now approve or reject identity documents uploaded by subscribers. Account admins can also mark subscriber accounts as ‘verified’ after approving their documents.
New Feature - Verification-based Account Automation
We’ve re-jigged the dunning workflows to be able to handle more trigger-action-based account automation workflows, and we now call it ‘Automation’, available both globally and at an account level. Administrators on the apiculus® admin console can now create (global and account-level) automation policies based on the identity verification status of subscriber accounts.
New Feature - Resending Invoices and Credit Notes
Apiculus® now supports resending invoices and credit notes where admins can resend invoice and credit note PDF files to the subscriber on email.
