Invoice batch generation now runs in the background, and Aspire notifies you when batch creation is complete, so you don’t need to monitor progress. The *Invoicing Assistant* also includes a new color-coded status for processing invoices. This update also adds the **Notification Center**, where you can view real-time system alerts and background task updates. Critical issues appear under the **Alerts** tab and are flagged with an orange or red badge, while general updates and background tasks appear under **All** notifications. ### Accessing the Notification Center To view system notifications: 1. Select the **bell icon** in the top navigation bar. 2. The **Notification Center** opens with two tabs: - **All**: Displays all notifications, including general updates and background tasks. - **Alerts**: Displays critical issues that require attention, marked with an orange or red badge. ![](https://cdn.document360.io/5942a8d7-f3b1-4919-bdfa-d477d8498fe3/Images/Documentation/Screenshot%202025-03-10%20at%205.19.21%E2%80%AFPM.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-13T10%3A36%3A30Z&se=2026-11-13T11%3A36%3A30Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=0uec87DPkGZxd6%2BLBl0eZ6onQbBO5SAjufxFX%2BBU0wc%3D) **Pop-up Notifications** **![](https://cdn.document360.io/5942a8d7-f3b1-4919-bdfa-d477d8498fe3/Images/Documentation/Screenshot%202025-03-10%20at%205.18.43%E2%80%AFPM.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-13T10%3A36%3A30Z&se=2026-11-13T11%3A36%3A30Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=0uec87DPkGZxd6%2BLBl0eZ6onQbBO5SAjufxFX%2BBU0wc%3D)** - When a task is completed, Aspire displays a pop-up notification in the **Notification Center** to keep you informed without disrupting your workflow. --- ### ### New Invoicing Assistant Color Coding ![](https://cdn.document360.io/5942a8d7-f3b1-4919-bdfa-d477d8498fe3/Images/Documentation/Screenshot%202025-03-10%20at%205.29.34%E2%80%AFPM.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-13T10%3A36%3A30Z&se=2026-11-13T11%3A36%3A30Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=0uec87DPkGZxd6%2BLBl0eZ6onQbBO5SAjufxFX%2BBU0wc%3D)Aspire's new **Processing** chip in the *Invoicing Assistant* indicates that the invoice batch is being processed in the background.
