Hi Canadian Group!KWS is wondering for those of you on V16, or those just in the know, we're in the process of aligning on our V16 upgrade timeline internally and our development team would like to know: when we upgrade, is the tax receipt automation effective immediately or do we have a choice to begin using that feature at a later date?
Thanks for the insight Devon
Hi Devon,The new tax receipt functionality is still, technically, in beta. I believe the first part of it should be ready for general release soon, however. Depending on when you're planning on going live with v16, it could be ready as soon as you go. Please note that there are phases to this that will be rolled out over time. Meaghan Metkeshould be able to provide more details.Steve
Hi Devon!
Steve is absolutely correct. We have completed the first beta testing phase for the new Charitable Tax Receipt feature. There will be at least one more round of beta testing, maybe two, before we will feel comfortable releasing this for live use. The feature is designed so that you may choose when to begin using it, once we've released it for use in production environments. It will also be possible to turn this feature on in your test environment first so you can familiarize yourself with how it will work before going live.
If you have questions about how the Charitable Tax Receipt feature will work, or if you want to see what was included in the first beta testing phase, let me know and I'd be happy to book some time with you.

That's great! Thanks Stephen Cunningham (he/him) and Meaghan Metke. So it seems we don't have to worry about planning our upgrade date around this feature. Meaghan, let me check in with our devo manager but I'm sure she would be thrilled to have the opportunity to see what's included (as would I).
Devon Klaas (She/Her) - I'd be happy to!
Stephen Cunningham (he/him) - If there's enough interest, maybe it's time for me to do a demo for a wider audience to bring everyone up to speed on where we are with the CTR feature?
I think that would be great Meaghan Metke
Hi Meaghan Metke, I agree. That would be great. Jen and I can talk about some dates and get another Canadian Group meetup scheduled.
