Uni-Verein 1.6.0 brings a small but noticeable improvement to everyday club work: finance managers are now notified by email as soon as a new receipt is submitted, so nobody has to check the receipts page manually anymore.

New Features​

  • πŸ”” Receipt notifications: Finance managers now receive an email whenever a new receipt is submitted, whether by a regular user or an admin. A finance manager is never notified about a receipt they submit themselves
  • βš™οΈ Notification settings: A new "Notification settings" tab in each user's own account settings. It's visible to every role as a placeholder for future settings, but the receipt-notification toggle itself only shows for finance managers. The feature is enabled by default and can be turned off at any time

Under the Hood​

  • 🧱 A new, generic per-user settings table (type + enabled flag) lays the groundwork for further notification and preference types in the future, without requiring further schema changes

Why This Update Matters​

Until now, finance managers had to actively check the receipts page to see if something new had been submitted. The automatic notification removes that step, so receipts get processed faster without an extra manual check.

What's Next?​

The new settings table was deliberately kept generic, more notification types will follow. Feedback and feature requests are, as always, very welcome via GitHub Issues. Check back here again soon!
