What's new in September 2026

The September 2026 release (release 22, BookTrove 10) adds the rules of the Nigeria Tax Act 2025 and the Nigeria Tax Administration Act 2025 to everyday bookkeeping, pays suppliers in batches, sends larger items through approval chains, emails customers, and links BookTrove with AuditTrove and PayTrove. Each change is shown in the illustration's first quarter.
