You can find details about every update to your Rentman workspace in the Rentman Changelog. To check your current version, click the help_outlineHelp Center button next to your name and select What's new.

Rentman updates are rolled out gradually across all accounts, so it may take a few days before the latest version becomes available in your workspace.

Version 552

Improvements

• You can now seal equipment in bulk.

• You now have the option to update the equipment data when duplicating a project.

• Seconds are now automatically set to zero when saving a time registration after clocking out.

• Importing data with yes/no columns now accepts values in all supported languages, not just English.

• You can now create a crew contract in bulk.

• The {iff} statements have been improved in the document template editor view.

• A tooltip has been added to the ‘Display in planner’ equipment setting to clarify its purpose.

• The ‘Can log in’ field has been renamed to ‘Can access workspace’ and now includes a tooltip explaining what happens when it’s enabled.

• The document template editor has received usability improvements to make working with modules, blocks, and variables clearer. Learn more here.

• Rentman now remembers which task board you were viewing when you navigate away and return.

• The project deadline list in the task deadline picker is now ordered chronologically.

• You can now access Rentman Community directly from Rentman.

• The default packing slip now shows the weight of the equipment on that specific packing moment instead of the full subproject weight.

• You can now add remarks to service groups.

• Warehouse booking screen remembers the last selection for ‘Return to warehouse’ when marking items as lost/repair.

• The workspace settings menu has been reorganized; ‘My details’ is now called ‘Profile’, and settings are grouped under clearer sections.

E-invoicing improvements:

• E-invoices now include a searchable dropdown list filtered by country for selecting identification schemes, replacing the long flat list.

• You can now choose a payment code for each payment method in the ‘Configuration’ module, so your customers’ accounting software knows how an invoice will be paid. Rentman adds the code to all e-invoice formats.

• ZUGFeRD / Factur-X e-invoices now use the Extended profile, so French platforms such as Pennylane accept them.

• You can now download e-invoices as ‘Factur-X (Chorus Pro)’, so French public-sector organizations accept them in Chorus Pro.

• Rentman now warns you before you finalize an invoice that is missing data for your e-invoice formats, so you can fix it in time. You can also download e-invoices when data is missing, and the e-invoice validation now appears at the top of the invoice.

Bug fixes

• Crew planner works properly again.

• The issue where editing an existing appointment with ‘Specific days’ recurrence could not be saved is now fixed.

• The ‘Cost rate fixed (Default rate)’ column in the Crew scheduling tab’s left panel is now sorted properly.

• The issue with extra input fields on planned equipment is now resolved.

• The issue in ZUGFeRD where items with the same VAT rate were sometimes displayed in separate ‘ApplicableTradeTax’ elements is now resolved.

• The Crew planner’s weekday header works properly again.

• Fixed the API’s POST /projects/:createFromTemplate returning a generic 400 error for templates containing equipment and functions.

• E-invoices now include the buyer contact person name in XML formats when a contact person is set on the invoice.

• Fixed the ‘Empty database’ button in trial accounts showing an error instead of clearing the sample data.

• The issue where warehouse search showed empty packing lists for time periods that had no equipment is now resolved.

• Fixed the equipment tab availability timeline showing ‘Period unknown’ in a new project until the first item is added.

• Fixed ‘Book equipment in warehouse’ being disabled on the projects list.

• Fixed times in documents being 1 hour off for some Canadian time zones that stopped observing DST changes in 2026.

• Fixed the new packing slip using the ‘Show on quotes’ setting instead of ‘Show on packing slip’ for combination content.

Version 551

Improvements

• Introducing Equipment times update: you can now give each planned equipment line its own planning and usage period, and the ‘Warehouse’ module shows packing lists so your team packs only what goes out or comes back at that time. Equipment times update is rolling out gradually, so it may take some time before it’s available in your workspace.  
• You can now print a packing slip for one or more specific packing lists, showing only the equipment for that moment.  
• Users with the right permission can mark items as ‘Remove from project’ in the warehouse booking screen, so a packing list can move forward without them.  
• Project status is now separate from warehouse status. A warehouse progress indicator on the project shows whether the warehouse is on track, and the status dropdown explains what each project status means.
• The ‘Book equipment’ button in a project now works when only some of its (sub)projects are marked as ready to pack.

Bug fixes

• Fixed an issue where text in generated PDF documents could overlap instead of wrapping onto the next line.
• Equipment from a single subrental can now be reserved across multiple connected projects without showing a false shortage.
• Users without permission to edit equipment can no longer change an equipment item through the edit icon on a project’s equipment line.
• The subrental status now updates right away when you change the status of an internal rental project from the ‘Warehouse’ module.
• Regenerating an invoice no longer includes amounts from subprojects that are no longer part of the financials.
• The edit and delete actions in the project task widget stay visible when a task description contains a wide table.

Note: Subproject statuses in the API after version 551

The public API has not changed, but the data it returns has. When your account moves to version C551, existing subproject statuses are migrated:

• Prepped, On location, and custom warehouse statuses become In progress.
• Returned becomes Execution done.
