(**CM2-7669**, **CM43#2810**)
* Due to a graphical timeout issue caused by AccountBillSource’s inefficient database access, the Accrual Selection (in *Accounting* > *Account* *Accruals* > *Selection*) was not possible when the records were in bulk. This has now been resolved.\
(**CM2-7853**, **CM43#2930**)

* **Bonus Day Utility:**
1. When creating a new Start, if a day is designated as a Bonus Day but is not deliverable according to the Delivery Schedule, a Bonus Day transaction should be made on the Subscription.

(**CM2-7145**, **CM43#2420**)
