We have renamed all references to BAI Code to Transaction Code in the Balances & Transactions section and the Transaction Details pop-up. This change helps us better support global clients and aligns with industry standards.

We're enhancing ACH payment options by splitting them into two separate rails: ACH and Same Day ACH. This change gives you more flexibility in how your payments are processed.

* ACH: When you choose this option, the requested execution date of your payment will be the following business day.
* Same Day ACH: This option will continue to operate as it does today, with the requested execution date being the same day you click "Pay."

Please Note:
* If you'd like to use ACH for specific vendors, you'll need to change your Default Payment Method per vendor.
* Should you make an "Same Day ACH" payment after the Commerce Bank Cut-Off time, that payment will automatically be sent as a Next Day payment.

We addressed and resolved the deployment issue.

May 20, 2025

We fixed an issue on the Positive Pay page where selecting a filter unintentionally applied an additional two-weeks date filter. This automatic default date filter has now been removed. Users can now apply filters without the unexpected addition of a default date range.

We have improved the Payment Confirmation pop-up to display user-friendly Payment Methods. This change makes the payment initiation process easier to review and understand.

May 14, 2025

We resolved an issue where certain bills were missing from the Apply Bill Credits pop-up. This update ensures all bills meeting certain criteria are now visible, streamlining the process of applying credits to your vendor bills.

Previously, custom date filters were not working on the Pay Vendor Bills page, preventing users from filtering open bills. This has been fixed. You can now use custom date filters on the Pay Vendor Bills page to filter your open bills.

We’re excited to announce support for paying Employee Expense Reports through Commerce Bank plugin in NetSuite. This new feature streamlines the payment process for Employee Expense Reports, enabling clients to make expense reports payments from within their NetSuite environment.

Pay Expense Reports Page
Clients can now access the Expense Reports page by navigating to Commerce Bank Plugin -> Payments -> Expense Reports. This page allows clients to submit payments for Employee Expense Reports, similar to the existing process for paying Vendor Bills. Only approved Expense Reports will be displayed and available for payment on this page. All payment rails that are available for vendor payments will also be available for expense reports. Employee banking information can be added to the Entity Bank Details bundle to facilitate payments.

Payments History Page
The Payments History page now includes a view of all paid Vendor Bills and Expense Reports. Clients can easily filter between Bills and Expense Reports to find the relevant bills and expense reports.

For more details on how to access the Expense Reports module, please refer to our Product Guide:
https://support.fispan.com/commercebank/employee-expense-reports-netsuite


We’ve enhanced the Apply Bill Credit dialog to improve clarity and streamline the user experience. These updates ensure that all relevant financial details are displayed clearly, making it easier for you to review and apply bill credits.

The discount on the Pay Vendor Bills page is now calculated based on the Original Amount of the bill. This update ensures that the discount calculation is in alignment with standard accounting practices, providing greater accuracy and consistency in your vendor payments.

Fixed an issue on the Balances and Transactions page where the "Last Updated" information was not reflecting the correct sync time for intraday and previous day balances. This fix ensures that the "Last Updated" now reflects the correct sync time, ensuring improved visibility to your bank account data.

We've resolved an issue in the Confirm Payment pop-up where the bank accounts in the source account drop-down were partially hidden when only one payment method was selected. This fix ensures that the source account drop-down is fully visible and displays all bank accounts, regardless of the number of payment methods selected.

We've resolved an issue where the plugin was displaying inconsistent currency formats across pages. This fix ensures that all pages now adhere to the user's preferred currency format, providing consistency and accuracy throughout the plugin.

December 11, 2024

Fixed an issue on the Balances and Transactions page where inconsistent date formatting caused the Transaction Details pop-up to break. This fix ensures that clients can now access and view the Transaction Details pop-up. 

November 13, 2024

We’re excited to introduce a new feature that allows clients to apply bill credits directly from the Pay Vendor Bills page. This enhancement optimizes your payment process, offering greater control, flexibility, and efficiency in managing your accounts payable workflows.

Key Features:
- Real-Time Bill Credit Application: Clients can now apply bill credits in real-time directly from the Pay Vendor Bills page. This streamlines the payment process and enables bill credits to be applied at time of payment.

- Precise Credit Management: The feature allows clients to apply bill credits per currency, per vendor, and across different A/P accounts. This functionality ensures credits are managed effectively according to your specific accounting workflows.

- Application Methods: We offer two methods for applying bill credits:
Auto-Apply: The Auto-Apply function simplifies the process by automatically applying the available bill credits to the open bills, applying available bill credits in order of due date, starting from the oldest moving to the newest.
Manual Apply: The Manual Apply function allows clients to select specific bill credits and determine the amount to apply to particular bills, giving them precise control over the allocation of bill credits.

- Seamless Integration: This feature is fully compatible with bill credits and discounts that are applied natively within the bill. 

For more details on how to use the new Bill Credits Application feature, please refer to this page: 
https://support.fispan.com/commercebank/applying-bill-credits-during-payment


The discount on the Pay Vendor Bills page is now calculated based on the Amount Due, aligning with native NetSuite behavior and adhering to standard accounting principles. This update replaces the previous calculation method, which was based on the Original Amount, ensuring more accurate and consistent discount applications across your vendor payments. You will still have the flexibility to modify the calculated discount as needed, streamlining the payment process while enhancing efficiency.

October 16, 2024

Fixed an issue where newly mapped accounts were not appearing in the Account Linking tab under the Financial Institution page. With this update, accounts will now display correctly, ensuring a smoother account linking process for Bank Feeds Service.

September 20, 2024

Previously, the Amount Due value in the Confirm Payment would be incorrect when one of the bills has discounts or credits applied. This issue has been resolved so that the Amount Due field displays the total original amount due for all selected bills without any discounts or credits applied. The Total to Pay value will reflect the final payment value which may be reduced by credits and discounts. 

September 11, 2024

The Confirm Payment pop-up now displays bank account balances instead of ERP account balances. It also supports accounts with long names for better clarity and usability.


Resolved an issue where certain accounts were not visible in the Confirm Payment pop-up and the Balances and Transactions page, ensuring all accounts are now properly displayed.

August 26, 2024

Fixed a bug that caused the Amount Due and Total To Pay columns to display incorrect amounts in the Confirm Payment pop-up.

August 15, 2024

The "Balance of Date" field in NetSuite's Match Bank Data module now provides a more accurate date. This update resolves the issue where incorrect dates were returned when an account’s balance information was unavailable.

The Bank Feeds product now has support for an extended list of BAI codes (458 and 158). This change will help minimize the need to manually add transactions with unsupported BAI codes and reduce errors caused when transactions with these codes are pushed into Netsuite. 

Updated the Confirm Payment pop-up to now display Discount and Credit columns, along with the source account balance, for a more comprehensive overview during the payment process.

The source account will only appear in the Confirm Payment pop-up if the associated bank account has a number input in the Number field.

The Balances and Transaction page will now filter out accounts with no balances. The issue causing this functionality to stop working has been resolved.

August 14, 2024

Bank Feeds parser is renamed to provide clarity to clients as to which parser they are utilizing. FISPAN encourages all clients to migrate to the new Bank Feeds parser. The legacy bank feed parsers will now be named to Commerce Bank BAI2 Trans Feed [Old] and Commerce Bank CSV Trans Feed [Old]. Clients who utilize the legacy bank feed product or the new bank feed product will have no impact on their current connectivity. 

Here is the guideline on migrating bank feeds: https://support.fispan.com/commercebank/migrating-bank-feeds-netsuite

July 17, 2024

Support for 1000+ Bank Accounts on the Balances Page
Fixed an issue on the Balance page where no accounts were displayed for clients with over 2000 accounts. The plugin now shows only the matched accounts from the FISPAN platform, ensuring all relevant accounts are shown.


June 12, 2024

We have fixed a bug that caused the Pay Bills page to glitch for clients with custom columns enabled after clicking "Pay." This issue only affected clients who updated to version 2024.5.0.

May 17, 2024

We've made improvements to the notification system, specifically for updating payment statuses after processing payments from the Pay Bills page. These enhancements ensure that notifications are delivered with greater speed, allowing you to receive important updates promptly. 

We've resolved an issue where the Last Updated date for bank balances on the Balances and Transactions page didn’t reflect the actual bank sync time. With this fix, the Last Updated date now accurately reflects the latest bank sync time and timestamps are consistent.

We've addressed an issue on the Pay Bills page where the Payment Method column sorting wasn't functioning correctly. With this fix, the Payment Method column can be utilized to sort bills accurately.

We've resolved an issue where incomplete transactions caused errors when clicking the "View" button on the Transactions page. With this fix, you can now view transaction details even if data is missing and the page will remain functional. 

May 15, 2024

The new Bank Feeds Service has been updated to handle large transaction volumes (1000+) more efficiently, minimizing the risk of timeout errors. This improvement doesn't affect client experience; clients can still pull in transactions as they normally would without any changes. There is no impact to users on the Legacy Bank Feeds.

April 10, 2024

Implemented a fix where the screen goes blank after clicking “View” on a pending transaction on the Balances & Transactions page. Clicking “View” will now populate the Transaction Details window as expected, but as the transaction is pending most fields will remain empty until they have settled. 

March 13, 2024

Implemented error handling for non-JSON responses in FISPAN payment API calls, preventing unintended voiding of payments in NetSuite in rare edge cases.

February 14, 2024

January 17, 2024

General bug fixes and improvements to reliability.

December 6, 2023

We've enhanced the transaction details dialog box on the Account Details page of Balances & Transactions to improve the overall appearance and formatting of data. It will now better handle longer transaction data. 

Customizable Filters are now available on the Pay Vendor Bills page. Users can add, rearrange, and remove filters on the Pay Vendor Bills page.

The ‘Customize: Pay Vendor Bills’ page that became available in a previous release for Customizable Columns now has a “Filters” tab where customizations can be made. Users can select from Available Filters to add to their Selected Columns. The ‘Available Filters’ list is based on standard Bill and Vendor record fields, as well as custom Transaction Body Fields on the Bill record. Filters in the 'Selected Filters' list denoted with a lock cannot be removed. Columns denoted with a dotted icon can be rearranged either by click-and-drag or by click-to-select, using the up/down arrows for repositioning. Users also have the option to reset their columns back to the default settings. 

Unlike with the previous release for Customizable Columns, any customizations made to filters will be applied to both the Open Bills and Failed Bills tabs of the Pay Vendor Bills page. Any customizations made to filters or columns are saved at the user level and are not visible by other users in the same NetSuite environment.

To access this feature, a NetSuite Administrator will need to provision users with:
Access to the following Suitelet scripts:
* Commerce Bank Pay Bills
* Commerce Bank User Customization
Access to the below NetSuite User/Role Permissions:
* Custom Fields (Level: View)
* Subsidiaries (Level: View)
* Accounting Lists (Level: View)
* Set Up Company (Level: View)
* Manage Accounting Periods (Level: View)


November 15, 2023

Resolved a bug on the ‘Vendor: Vendor Name’ column sorting that occurred after the implementation of Customizable Columns. 

On the Account Details page of Balances & Transactions, the date range users can export their bank transactions for has been limited to 65 days due to large date ranges causing the retrieval and export services to fail. Users will see a prompt on the Account Details page instructing them to select a date range up to 65 days. After export, an export status will appear on-screen.

October 18, 2023

Resolved a bug with a SuiteScript error preventing the Pay Vendor Bills page from being accessed.

September 21, 2023

Customizable Columns are now available on the Pay Vendor Bills page. Users can add, rearrange, and remove columns on both the Open Bills tab and Failed Bills tab of the Pay Vendor Bills.

A new page titled 'Customize: Pay Vendor Bills' is now accessible from the 'Pay Vendor Bills' page via a 'Customize' button. On this Customize page, users can select from the Available Columns to add to their Selected Columns. The ‘Available Columns’ list is based on standard Bill and Vendor record fields, as well as custom Transaction Body Fields on the Bill record. Columns in the 'Selected Columns' list denoted with a lock cannot be removed. Columns denoted with a dotted icon can be rearranged either by click-and-drag or by click-to-select, using the up/down arrows for repositioning. Users also have the option to reset their columns back to the default settings.

To access this new feature, a NetSuite Administrator will need to provision a user with:
Access to the following Suitelet scripts:
* Commerce Bank Pay Vendor Bills

French Canadian support is now available for column customizations on the Pay Vendor Bills page. Translations are not available by default for custom Transaction Body Fields on the Bill record. Translations on custom Transaction Body Fields can be added manually by clicking on the “Translation” tab of a Transaction Body Field and defining it on the “Label” field. Any translations added here will be reflected on the Pay Vendor Bills and Customize page.

To enable French Canadian, an Administrator must enable Multi-Language from Setup > Company > Setup Tasks > Enable Features. From there, users can change the language by navigating to Home > Set Preferences. Below the General subtab under the Localization heading, select Français (Canada) in the Language drop-down. A user’s language preferences will not affect users on the same NetSuite Company.


Resolved a bug with bill payments to Vendors who have more than 10,000+ open bills were failing. This was caused by NetSuite’s count limit of 10,000 items, and was resolved by implementing back-end changes to filter the list of bills in the payment creation process to match the bills selected for the Vendor on the Pay Vendor Bills page.

Improvements were made to prevent NetSuite from failing payment status updates for voided bills.

September 20, 2023

Resolved a bug that arose from version 2023.8.2 that prevented the Failed Bills tab of the Pay Vendor Bills page from loading.

August 25, 2023

Added an additional patch to the bug resolution on 2023.8.1 relating to script error messages on the Pay Vendor Bills page. This patch includes additional validations on when NetSuite performs the subsidiary check.

August 22, 2023

Resolved an intermittent bug on the 2023.8.0 release causing script error messages on the Pay Vendor Bills page. This bug occurred because NetSuite was sometimes skipping a check to see if the user's NetSuite company has subsidiaries. Since NetSuite doesn't always perform this check, not all users would experience this issue. To avoid any disruptions, we highly recommend users to update to the latest version, 2023.8.1

August 18, 2023

Resolved an intermittent issue with the Pay Vendor Bills table not loading when filtering by certain Subsidiaries.

August 16, 2023

Resolved a bug introduced in plugin version 2023.7.0 and persisting in version 2023.7.1 where the Pay Vendor Bills page did not load in bills for users on non-OneWorld versions of NetSuite. Users on OneWorld versions of NetSuite are not affected by this bug.

July 25, 2023

Resolved a bug on the 2023.7.0 release causing script error messages in the bank plugin. This bug only impacts users who have Balances & Transactions and no other plugin functionality, such as Payables (i.e. Bill Payments).

July 20, 2023

Resolved bug on the Positive Pay Export button preventing users from exporting their Positive Pay Histories.

Additional logging was added to help better troubleshoot 4xx errors on failed payment requests.

July 19, 2023

A new custom record type titled "BANK User Customization" has been created to store user customizations on Pay Vendor Bills page for a future release of Customizable Columns and Filters. This new custom record type will have no impact on users in this June release.

June 14, 2023

Resolved a UI issue on the “Confirm Payments” pop-up on the Pay Vendor Bills page where the Payment Method shown occasionally defaulted to our backend system name, which may cause confusion.

This update is related to the Open Beta announced in the last release for French Canadian language support where the system was attempting to translate the names of SuiteScripts associated with the bank plugin and was causing problems. Translation logic was updated to exclude names of scripts.

On a Format Profile for a Financial Institution when your bank Connectivity Method is selected, a SSS_USAGE_LIMIT_EXCEEDED may be incorrectly triggered when it should have been a SUITESCRIPT_API_UNAVAILABLE_IN_DEFINE error. The SuiteScript API error was caused by calls being made outside of a specific function. The incorrect error messaging and the root cause of the SuiteScript API error has since been resolved. 

Plugin Version is now something we can see and take into consideration when sending out in-ERP Billboard notifications.

May 17, 2023

Added two new payment methods: Virtual Card (VCC) and Checkprint.

OPEN BETA: French Canadian support now available. Users are now able to use the bank plugin in French Canadian. Text shown in menus, page names, column headers, among other areas in the plugin have been translated with the exception of error messages, which will remain in English. This feature is in open beta and we are open to any feedback or suggestions about this new language option. 

To enable French Canadian, an Administrator must enable 'Multi-Language' from Setup > Company > Setup Tasks > Enable Features. From there, users can change the language by navigating to Home > Set Preferences. Below the General subtab under the Localization heading, select Français (Canada) in the Language drop-down. A user’s language preferences will not affect users on the same NetSuite Company.

Resolved issue where there is a blank error message when the payment fails on the NetSuite side, and not in the bank plugin. The SuiteScripts version update from 2.0 to 2.1 resulted in a change of how errors were handled in NetSuite. 

Resolved UI issue on Pay Vendor Bills page. NetSuite version 2023.1 introduced some changes to their UI code that conflicted with the sticky elements that have been applied on the table in the Pay Vendor Bills page of the bank plugin. This sticky element is used to keep the rows with the Pay and Refresh buttons alongside the table headers “stickied” to the top of the screen when scrolling down the page.

Resolved issue where users could not dismiss the billboard banner notifications, even after clicking the ‘x’. 

April 20, 2023

March 15, 2023

Added links to the footer for easier access to guides, release notes, feedback portal, and how to contact support.

February 15, 2023

The NetSuite plugin now displays a footer on the bottom of every page. The footer currently displays the bundle name and version and may show additional information in future versions.

Previously, the plugin’s Billboard Restlet was not accessible by non-Administrator roles. If users did not have access to this Restlet, they may have missed notifications or alerts within the NetSuite plugin. It has now been updated so that users with minimum permissions can gain access to this Restlet. Suitelets are still only accessible by administrators. To get access to this new change, the user must update the plugin. 

January 19, 2023

Resolved bug introduced in version 2022.21 where payments made on that version did not display the Payer Name on the Payment History page.

Resolved bug introduced in version 2022.21 where payments made on that version did not display the Payee Name on the Payment History page for Vendors that are considered "Individual" rather than "Company".

Bank plugin UI will now display why a payment fails when users try to use account numbers containing special characters that are stored in NetSuite’s Electronic Bank Payments bundle. This failure message will now show up on the “Failed Bills” tab on the Pay Vendor Bills page, as well as the Payment History page. 

This bundle is not to be confused with FISPAN’s Entity Bank Details (EBD) bundle. If you are a user of EBD, you may safely ignore this message.

“Setup Required” banner and all associated “To start using this plugin…” text has been updated to include links to where users can complete the install wizard for both Production AND Sandbox.

December 13, 2022

Bug fix addressing missing Payer Name on failed bills on the Payment History page.

General bug fixes and improvements.

November 24, 2022

Notifications will now appear within your embedded bank bundle to notify you of bundle updates, new feature availability, outages or maintenance windows. All notifications except those for outages can be dismissed.


Fallback text “Auto-ACH” has been changed to “-” to reduce confusion. This text appears occasionally for failed payments under the Payment Method column on the Payment History.

October 27, 2022

The Commerce Connections Direct NetSuite bundle was released.
