Release Notes - What's New for AhaSoft

April 05, 2026
v5.5.0 β€” Operational Expenses Module & Network Connectivity Status

✨ New Features

  • Complete Operational Expenses Management: A module to track business costs (Rent, Salaries, Fuel, etc.) effectively. Includes automated monthly "reset" dashboards and dynamic month-scoping (e.g., "April Expenses").
  • In-App PDF Print Previewer: A custom-built report viewer that allows you to preview and print expense reports directly inside AhaSoft, eliminating browser-hang issues during downloads.
  • Network & Server Connectivity (Settings): New diagnostic tools in the Settings page to check real-time IP connection status to the local server and database.
  • Export to Excel & PDF: Professional export tools for accounting, featuring simplified whole-number (Naira) formatting for clearer financial reporting.
  • Advanced Expense Filters: Filter records by Category, Date Range, or Amount (Min/Max) with a streamlined, responsive interface.
  • Pagination & History: Optimized "Load More" functionality for deep historical data access without sacrificing application performance.

πŸ”§ Improvements

  • Whole-Number Accounting: Standardized all primary expense reporting to use whole numbers only, removing redundant decimal points for faster visual reconciliation.
  • Responsive UI Balancing: Updated the Expenses dashboard to match the "wide" layout of the Admin Dashboard, ensuring it looks professional on both ultrawide monitors and mobile screens.
April 02, 2026
v5.4.0 β€” Monthly & Yearly Sales Analytics, Smart Audit Search & Performance

✨ New Features

  • Monthly & Yearly Profit Analytics (Reports Page): Two side-by-side stat panels now show Total Sales, Profit, Transactions, and Items Sold for the selected month and full year β€” with a Month/Year dropdown to browse any period instantly. The Team Performance table also includes each member's profit for the selected month.
  • System Activities Date Range Filter & Pagination: The Audit Log page now has From / To date pickers to narrow records by date range, and results load 200 at a time with simple Prev / Next navigation so the page stays fast even with thousands of stored records.
  • Date & Time Search: Search in System Activities and the POS Print Receipt section now understands plain date inputs β€” type "3/4/2026", "April", or "8:23 PM" and matching records appear instantly.
  • Financial Privacy Toggle: A one-click Eye / Hide button on the Reports page masks all money values across every stat card β€” useful when viewing reports in a shared setting. Your choice is saved between sessions.
  • Best Practices Guide: A small info (β„Ή) button next to the Sales Analytics header opens a quick popup guide on keeping profit figures accurate β€” cost price setup and how to record returns correctly.
  • Database Performance Indexing: Added 18+ indexes across all core tables so reports, searches, and data loads are significantly faster β€” especially as records grow over time.

πŸ”§ Bug Fixes

  • Stock Report Now Shows All Products: Fixed a hidden limit that was silently cutting the Stock Report off at 20 products. The full inventory is now shown in both the Admin Dashboard and the Reports page.
  • Registration Message Fixed: New users who try to register with a username that is already pending approval now see a clear, calm informational message instead of a confusing red error. Different messages appear for pending, banned, or taken usernames β€” each one accurate and easy to understand.
  • User Deletion Fixed: Admins can now delete newly registered users who have not made any sales or recorded any stock movements. Previously, the system was incorrectly blocking deletion because of login history or activity log entries β€” those are now correctly cleaned up automatically before deletion.
  • Reports Dark & Light Mode: Corrected styling on the Reports page so all panels, stat cards, and dividers display correctly in both dark and light mode using the app's built-in theme variables.
April 01, 2026
v5.3.0 β€” Smart Session Intelligence & Live Status
  • One-Row Session Logic: Refactored the Login History to consolidate multiple entries. A single row now accurately captures an entire session from login to logout.
  • Live Online Status: Added a pulsing green status indicator to the activity log, allowing admins to see currently active team members in real-time.
  • Automated Duration Tracking: The system now automatically calculates and displays exactly how long a user was active (e.g., "3h 45m" or "Active Now").
  • Log Layout Optimization: Reordered activity columns for faster auditing: User β†’ Login Time β†’ Status β†’ Logout Time β†’ Duration β†’ IP Address.
  • Enhanced Logout Reliability: Improved the underlying handshake during logout to ensure session end-times are recorded perfectly even during rapid app transitions.
March 30, 2026
v5.2.0 β€” Unified Audit Intelligence & Unlimited Search
  • Unified Audit Search: "View Activities" now integrates directly with the standard search bar, providing a familiar and flexible experience for auditing team members.
  • Unlimited Historical Results: Both manual and automated searches now bypass the standard record limits, retrieving up to 1,000,000 matches from the entire system history.
  • Instant Cross-Tab Sync: Swapping between System Logs, Deleted Products, and Login History now perfectly maintains your search results across all categories instantly.
  • Full Manual Control: Removed restrictive UI locks on search. Administrators can now manually edit, clear, or refine user-specific searches as easily as any standard query.
  • Performance Optimization: Implemented smart search debouncing and optimized backend queries to ensure lightning-fast results across large activity datasets.
  • Enhanced Data Accuracy: Fixed a reporting bug to ensure users are accurately matched in every audit category, regardless of whether a full name is provided.
