Updates

Hosted Onboarding: Invite an Owner

We're introducing Invite an Owner to hosted onboarding.

addClient Mutation

We are no longer requiring the firmID in the addClient mutation.  This is now optional when using a firmApiToken token.

Fixes

• We fixed a bug with ACH payments where the status for failed payments was pending. Failed ACH payments will now result in status = error.

Breaking Changes

• None

• Full Name
• Role or Title
• Social Security Number
• Home address
• Date of Birth
• Photo ID
