# 🛠️ Updates & Improvements 🌱 

**We are pleased to release several system improvements with this release. Please find below a summary of the latest additions.**

### 
**Support at Home – Purchase Method Type now mandatory for AT and HM Wraparound Services** 
Following feedback from Services Australia, the **Purchase Method Type** (Purchased or Loaned, and where applicable, *Loaned From* and *Invoice Number*) is now mandatory for **AT and HM Wraparound Services**. 
\*We’ve raised that this requirement doesn’t logically apply to wraparound services such as Setup, Delivery, or Training, which would never be “Loaned”. Services Australia has advised that this is currently under review. For now, we’ve implemented this change to ensure bulk export CSV files are not rejected by the ACPP. We’ll relax these rules once Services Australia updates their requirements. 


**Support at Home – Bulk Exports: Additional validation before CSV generation** 
To prevent errors, we’ve added an additional validation step just before CSV generation. This checks whether any changes have been made that should exclude a support from the export (for example, updating the quantity to 0 after it was added to a draft export). If this occurs, you’ll now receive a warning. 


**Case Notes – SAH validation no longer applied to non-SAH supports** 
When creating case notes, SAH validation rules were incorrectly being applied to non-SAH supports (for example, enforcing 15-minute increments on NDIS hourly supports). 
This issue has now been resolved.
