Estateably's Changelog

💸 Capital vs. Revenue Categorization & Tracking
⚡ Principal vs. income clarity (UPIA approved)
All transactions now require Capital/Revenue categorization with real-time running balances displayed in the left menu panel, and renamed "Account" field to "Money Type" for clearer distinction between fund location and ledger classification. Ensures UPIA compliance and provides immediate visibility into principal vs. income across all matter accounts for accurate fiduciary reporting - no more guessing games with your ledger.

🔁 Transfer Holdings Multiple Times
⚡ Transfer away (cost basis intact)
Holdings can now be transferred multiple times across accounts while preserving complete lot history and cost basis data throughout each transfer. Supports complex disbursement strategies with full audit trail integrity, though transferred units appear as separate entries from existing holdings in destination accounts - keeping things organized even when distributions get complicated.

📊 Redesigned Holdings List UI
⚡ All your key metrics, front and center
Holdings List now displays average cost basis, book value, market value, and unrealized gain/loss directly on each line item without requiring modal clicks. Provides immediate access to key financial metrics for faster decision-making during distributions and reporting workflows - because clicking through modals is nobody's favorite pastime.

📘 Combined Inventory + Accounting Views
⚡ No more module hopscotch
Combined separate Inventory and Accounting modules into a single navigation section, allowing users to manage assets, liabilities, and all related transactions from one unified workflow. Eliminates module switching and provides complete financial oversight for fiduciary files in a single context - your workflow just got a lot smoother.

🧾 Improved Holdings Modal
⚡ Total value entry (math not required)
Holdings modal now accepts total market or book values with automatic per-unit calculation, and expanded edit mode provides access to additional fields for mid-process updates. Streamlines data entry workflow and reduces manual calculations when working with full-value statements - because calculators are so last century.

📦 Lot-Level Tracking for U.S. Tax Planning
⚡ Lot-level tracking that CPAs will appreciate
Holdings List now includes expandable lot management drawers for each holding, displaying acquisition date, units, cost basis, and remaining balance per lot for FIFO, LIFO, and Specific Identification accounting methods. Provides granular lot visibility directly from the Assets page, supporting precise partial liquidations and beneficiary distributions for U.S. tax compliance - no more digging through transaction pages.

🧮 Consolidated Holdings
⚡ Holdings consolidation (woot!)
Holdings List now consolidates multiple acquisitions of the same asset into a single section, with expandable drawers showing unit source breakdown for average cost accounting compliance. Eliminates duplicate holding entries while maintaining audit trail transparency for deceased/funding/original vs. purchased units - because nobody likes scrolling through endless duplicates.

Estate Intake System
The executor data collection game-changer.
Estate professionals can now send secure intake forms directly to executors via email with password protection, allowing executors to submit all deceased information, beneficiaries, executors, assets, and liabilities through a guided web interface that imports directly into Estateably. Eliminates manual data entry, reduces back-and-forth communication, and gives executors a self-paced submission experience - because nobody enjoys playing phone tag about asset details.

PCI Certification achieved
Your data just got even safer.
Estateably now meets rigorous PCI compliance standards for payment card data protection, joining our existing SOC 2 Type II compliance and advanced encryption to create industry-leading security protocols. Reinforces our commitment to safeguarding sensitive financial information across all fiduciary accounting and trust administration workflows - because your estate data deserves better protection than most people's secret cookie recipes.

SOC 2 Type II Certification achieved
We leveled up our security game.
Estateably now meets SOC 2 Type II standards for security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy, building on our earlier Type I certification to demonstrate consistent, auditable security programs. Provides comprehensive protection for highly sensitive estate and trust data through rigorous third-party validation - because your fiduciary information deserves more security than a teenager's diary with a flimsy lock.
