What's New: Keep Working During Data Syncs + a Redesigned Account Mappings Experience

Two improvements designed to save you time, reduce friction, and make day-to-day life in Blue Onion smoother.


πŸš€ Use the App While Your Data Syncs

Previously, when Blue Onion was running data ingest and processing jobs, the app was effectively on hold β€” you had to wait for those jobs to finish before you could interact with anything. For customers with large data volumes or long sync windows, this created real friction during the times you most wanted to be working.

What's changed

The rest of the application now remains fully usable while data is being ingested and processed in the background. Navigate the app, review journal entries, configure templates, run reports β€” keep working as you normally would, even while a sync is in progress.

Only mutations that depend on the in-progress sync are temporarily held back until the processing is complete. Everything else is fair game.

What this means for you

  • No more sync wait times blocking your workflow

  • Faster month-end close β€” keep reviewing data and building templates while overnight or historical syncs run

  • A smoother experience across the whole app, especially for customers with high data volumes


✨ Account Mappings: A Unified, Simpler Setup

One page. One workflow. Zero context switching.

We've redesigned the General Ledger β†’ Configuration β†’ Account Mappings page to give you a cleaner, all-in-one experience for managing how your payout data flows into your GL.

What's new

Accounts and additional fields, side by side. You can now map additional fields directly alongside your account mappings β€” no more switching between the Account Mappings page and the Additional Fields page to keep them in sync. Everything you need to configure a payout account lives in one place.

Clearer, more predictable setup. The new UI guides you to a single, unambiguous additional-field mapping per payout account. What you configure is exactly what posts downstream β€” no guesswork, no hidden defaults, no surprises in your GL.

What this means for you

  • Faster setup when onboarding new payout accounts or adjusting existing mappings

  • Fewer errors from accounts and additional fields drifting out of sync

  • Clearer visibility into how each payout account will post to your GL

⏳ Transition Period

The legacy Additional Fields page will remain available to existing users until June 30, 2026 so you have time to get comfortable with the new layout.

After June 30, 2026, additional field mapping will live exclusively on the Account Mappings page.
