Release highlights

What’s new in Studiometry 17

Studiometry 17 runs natively on Apple Silicon, creates EU e-invoices out of the box, and gets faster where it counts — plus dozens of improvements to timesheets, tags and templates.

  • Built for Apple Silicon, ready for what’s next

    Native on Apple Silicon and Intel, and ready for macOS 28 and beyond.

  • EU e-invoicing, built in

    Turn any invoice into EU XML with a right-click. VAT category codes, exemption reasons, client tax IDs and country codes are all handled for you.

  • A much faster calendar

    The calendar is dramatically faster for businesses with lots of to-dos and events.

  • Notes on every time entry

    The Work Week timesheet keeps separate notes for every item on every day, with a new, more powerful note editor.

  • Edit in bulk

    Change tags on many items at once, group edit straight from the Tags section, and switch clients between Client and Vendor together.

  • Smarter invoices & reports

    Better page filling for long invoices, an XML-ready set of template variables, and a raw preview for non-HTML templates.

Built for Apple Silicon, ready for what’s next

Apple has said that macOS 28 will stop running apps that aren’t built for Apple Silicon, and macOS is already warning about them. Studiometry 17 is fully native on Apple Silicon, so it will keep running long after that change. Intel Macs are still fully supported.

E-invoicing for Europe, built in

Studiometry 17 includes a built-in EU XML invoice template. Right-click any invoice to generate it as EU XML — even if you haven’t added the template to your list yet. Everything an e-invoice needs is now part of Studiometry:

  • VAT category codes for taxes, chosen from the known list or entered as your own custom codes, all editable in the Edit Tax window.
  • A VAT exemption reason for each tax.
  • A built-in Tax/VAT ID field for clients (you can still keep it in a client spec if you prefer).
  • Automatic ISO country codes (such as FR, DE or US), worked out from the country you’ve entered for clients, contacts and your own business.
  • Standard UN/ECE unit codes for every item: HUR for hourly work, C62 for everything else.
  • XML templates now escape special characters automatically, so the files they create can always be imported by other apps.

A calendar that keeps up

If you schedule a lot, you’ll notice this one straight away: calendar performance is greatly improved for anyone with a large number of to-dos and events.

Timesheets with the whole story

The Work Week timesheet now lets you edit notes and extra information for every individual item on each day, instead of combining all of a day’s notes into one work item. A new, more powerful note editing window makes writing them easier, too.

Tag and edit in bulk

Organizing many items at once is now much faster:

  • Edit tags for multiple items at the same time.
  • In the Search section, select several items and right-click to edit the tags assigned to all of them.
  • In the Tags section, select multiple items and right-click for several new functions — including a group tag edit (even when the items are different types) and a full group edit (when they’re all the same type).
  • Use the Group Edit window with clients to switch them between Client and Vendor status.

More powerful invoice & report templates

  • A new option to stop filling the final page first. Previously the last page’s items were filled before the inner repeating pages, which could leave those pages sparse.
  • The in-app preview for code-based templates now shows non-HTML output as raw source.
  • New template variables for taxes and e-invoicing: TaxVATCategoryCode,TAXVATExeptionReason, ItemTaxVATCategoryCode,ClientTaxID, ClientCountryCode, MyCountryCode andItemUnitCode.
  • Raw, unformatted XML versions of many value-based variables: ItemAmountXML,ItemUnitPriceXML, ItemQuantityXML, ItemTaxPercentXML,IssueDateXML, DueDateXML, SubtotalXML,TaxAmountXML and TotalXML.

But that’s not all…

  • Emails sent from within Studiometry now use TLS 1.2 or newer.
  • Invoice lists in the main window remember their sort column and direction between launches.
  • Fixed specs with special characters (such as umlauts) not appearing correctly in client and project overviews.
