Setup, LAN sharing, B2 sync, key escrow and disaster recovery: OPERATIONS.md in the zip. Upgrading from 0.1.0: replace the exe and DLLs; the data folder and cabinet are kept.

New in 0.1.1

  • UltraTax print capture set up like UltraTax's own PDF File Options: variable positions and a file name example, and a Document Names table where each document gets a custom name, doc type, File / Don't file, a folder and a file name (as printed or short). Government copies go to Income Tax/{Year}/Government Copy, preparer copies to Workpapers, and the K-1 package can also be copied to each partner.
  • Admin › Print capture & parsers is an editor with a "Try a file name" box. Vibe Files keeps Intake's filing rules in step with it.
  • Sync remembers its passphrase for each Windows login on each PC (Windows DPAPI). The passphrase is still the recovery key.
  • Versions follow a renamed or moved document through a catalog rebuild.
  • Folder-import guesses wait for a person: a tax year taken from a file name, or a doc type taken from a folder name, keeps the document out of disposition until someone confirms it.
  • Slow work no longer freezes the window: opening a cabinet, the weekly audit check, the Browse folder listing, Flatten / PDF/A / Compress, Combine, Intake reconcile and sync unlock now run in the background.
  • Three rounds of QA fixes: security, client data in logs, sync correctness, crash safety and undo, ingest and OCR robustness, dropped network shares. One data folder per Windows login on a shared server, and a data folder can be open in only one copy at a time.
  • An 8-hour no-leak test passed.
