Latest Updates
Maintenance Release
A couple more important issues were brought forward by the community after our last maintenance release, and we believed they needed to be resolved quickly. As such, we have been working on the upcoming maintenance release, 7.14.5 & 8.6.2, which should be available in the next couple of weeks.
SuiteCRM Developer Insights – Module Record Actions
The latest Developer Insights video focuses on Module Record Actions. A module’s record view can have additional actions added to it using the Record Action configuration. Click here to see the video and learn more about these, including a code example.

What’s New?
SuiteCRM 8.7 – Beta
We plan to release SuiteCRM 8.7 beta by the end of August, following on from the maintenance release. Our community has a unique chance to participate in this beta release stage and provide feedback that will help define the 8.7 production version. Users worldwide will gain from this as it will guarantee that the SuiteCRM 8.7 production release is the best it can be. Watch this space in the upcoming weeks for the announcement of the beta release and to find out how you can get involved.
SuiteCRM 8.8
Despite the need to delay 8.7 slightly, development for 8.8 is underway. Along with performance improvements, this release will contain some key features that have been missing, such as Two Factor Authentication and Homepage Dashlets (Favourites and Recently Viewed). Also included will be an upgrade to Angular 18, where we will be moving from Module Federation to Native Federation.
