We are updating the Procountor interface to provide a better and more intuitive user experience for all Procountor users. The renewal includes an updated visual design, new functions and use flows, and efficiency improvements "under the hood". These updates will be released in parts over the coming months and years.
Going forward, all new features will primarily be available only in the new user interface.
On this page, you will find more information about the renewal in a Q&A format.
When will the interface be renewed?
The interface will be renewed in parts. The new interface will initially be optional and its adoption will be manual. The renewed views have been available for testing, but by default, users will continue to see the current ("traditional") version of Procountor.
How can I use the renewed views?
In the initial phase of the interface renewal, taking the new functions into use will be manual. Each user will receive a new setting to activate the new views if desired.
To activate the new functions, you can do so from the menu that opens in the upper right corner of the program.
Can I return to using the traditional version of Procountor after activating the new views?
You can switch between the renewed and traditional versions of Procountor from the menu in the upper right corner. For now, there is no deadline for how long the traditional version of Procountor will be available.
How does the interface renewal benefit me as a user?
The interface renewal is one of our most important projects, aiming to achieve significant benefits for all Procountor users. The main advantages include improvements in usability and user experience.
Most of the views will initially be updated only in terms of visual appearance, but some key use cases, such as sales invoicing, will undergo more substantial changes already in the initial phase. We involve our current users in various stages of design and development to ensure the new functions serve our user base as well as possible.
The interface renewal also has technical benefits: by adopting new technology, we ensure that the program remains an efficient tool and can bring new functions and updates to you faster in the future.
Does the interface renewal require any actions from me?
No, it doesn't. The new views and functions will be introduced to Procountor through automatic version updates. If you activate the new views, you may notice that some of your previous use cases have changed, e.g., navigation in the new menu works slightly differently, and some buttons have changed places. The renewal may require a bit of familiarization.
As a tip, in the new user interface you can quickly open a page in a new tab as follows:
Windows: Ctrl + click on the link
Mac: Command + click on the link
For example, you can hold down the Ctrl key and click the Finago logo in the top left corner to open a new homepage view in a new tab.
Why are the changes implemented incrementally?
By introducing new views and functions step by step, you can try the first updates as soon as possible without waiting for a “completely finished package.” One of the main advantages of incremental development is that we can improve the interface based on real usage situations and feedback.
As our users gradually get acquainted with the updates, we receive valuable information about what has worked well and whether there is a need to change direction or prioritization in future updates. Thus, updates made in parts help maintain good quality and user experience.
When will the new interface be ready?
Continuous improvement will likely continue indefinitely, even long after the actual interface renewal. Therefore, it is difficult to estimate a specific deadline for the finished interface.
Updating all current Procountor views to the new version will take several months or even years. Updated views and functions will be released at least during 2025 to 2027.
How can I provide feedback on the new views?
An optional survey about the user experience has been sent within Procountor to some users who has used the new views. In the future, more targeted surveys related to specific features or functionalities will be sent, so that we can ensure they truly serve users and help guide further development in the right direction.
If you encounter problems or have urgent feedback (or have already responded to the survey), you can contact our customer service.
What has changed so far? What will be updated next?

Updated side menu for navigation
