New Features

Wiise Compatibility with Multi-Entity Management for Microsoft Dynamics

Wiise has partnered with Binary Stream to release a version of Wiise with a subset of features that are compatible with their solution Multi-Entity Management for Microsoft Dynamics (MEM).

Multi-Entity Relationship is a product natively integrated to Business Central to allow entities within Wiise to be managed using global dimensions from a single entity. This allows for streamlined management of multiple companies that share common setup like reporting, customer documents, Chart of Accounts and other features.

We encourage customers to learn more about this product from Binary Stream’s website and learn more about its capabilities. https://binarystream.com/products/D365BC-MEM/

Wiise Reporting

The following Wiise reports have been refactored to be compatible with the MEM product allowing filtering and by global dimension as well as restricting user access to entities they have not been granted access to. Note that this does not impact existing Wiise customers who do not have MEM installed.

Wiise Bank Feeds

Wiise Bank Feeds powered by Envestnet Yodlee is now compatible with MEM. Banking security is handled by assigning a user with Banking Officer permissions. This user is able to:

• View the Wiise Bank Feeds widget in the following role centres:

  • Accountant

  • Business Manager

  • Business Manager Evaluation

• Create, delete and view feeds

• Refresh bank feeds

• Perform bank reconciliations

• Have access to bank feeds across all MEM entities.

Wiise Payroll

Wiise Payroll is now compatible with MEM. Wiise Payroll will be visible to users who are assigned as a Payroll Officer under user setup. A payroll officer will be able to

• View both the Wiise Timesheet Insights and Wiiise Pay Runs Insights widgets in the following role centres:

  • Accountant

  • Business Manager

  • Business Manager Evaluation

• Perform pay runs for any MEM entity

• Have access to payroll information and timesheets across all MEM entities

Non-Supported Wiise Features

All other Wiise features will not be active for tenants that have MEM installed, including the Company Setup wizard and EFT.

New Wiise MEM Helper App

Wiise is releasing a new app to enable specified Wiise features to work with the Multi-Entity Management (MEM) solution from Binary Stream.  The purpose of this app is to ensure the Wiise Banking, Payroll and Reporting features are compatible with MEM.  The app also ensures that the Wiise reporting suite adheres to the security model that MEM employs to make sure customer reporting data remains protected. 

Note: This app is available for both Wiise Australia 2.0 and Wiise New Zealand customers on partner request. Please note: As this app limits Wiise functionality to Wiise features compatible with Wiise, it should not be installed into environments not using MEM. 

Considerations for Installing MEM

• Installing Multi-Entity Management for Microsoft Dynamics requires considerable configuration of your Wiise environment. Please contact your implementation partner to assess this scope of work.

• MEM must be installed in Business Central environments before installing the Wiise extension.
• The Wiise Company Setup wizard cannot be run in Wiise tenants that MEM installed.

• We updated the sign in and sign out experience.
• On the Settings page, profile and version details have been added.
• On the Setting Page, an update has been made to ensure the correct locations match environments.
