New updates for our September Product Release are now available on Wiise Australia and New Zealand environments!
Product update
Business Central wave 2 (v29)
The V29 release scheduled for 12 November applies specifically to AU tenants.
Business Central version 29 (2026 release wave 2) starts rolling out in October 2026, with more features arriving monthly through to March 2027. Your environment updates automatically before February 2027.
The release for NZ tenants remains temporarily on hold due to a Microsoft-related issue. Microsoft has identified the underlying issue and has confirmed that a fix is ready. While a release date for NZ is not yet confirmed, we are continuing to monitor progress closely and will communicate the revised release date as soon as it is confirmed.
To help you automate more of their finance admin, report faster and work more efficiently day to day, the release includes the following:
AI agents and Copilot
- Payables Agent (rolling out): smarter matching of vendor invoices to purchase orders, now validated for Australian English.
- Expense Agent (preview): now available in Australia. GST is calculated from expense reports, and approvals are AI-driven.
- Copilot chat (preview): a new chat experience inside Business Central.
- One task pane for all agents (rolling out): agent activity managed from a single place, with agent-generated content reviewed directly on the page.
