Deprecations and Discontinuations: September 2025

From time to time, we must remove functionality from the Uptempo platform for various reasons. To give users time to prepare and adjust, we communicate functionality removals in two stages:

  1. Deprecation: Deprecated functionality is still available in the Uptempo platform as of the current release, but is planned to be removed with a future release. Deprecated functionality usually does not receive any further updates, and only remains available to already existing users.

  2. Discontinuation: Discontinued functionality has been removed from the Uptempo platform as of the current release, and is no longer available.

If functionality that you use is announced as deprecated on this page, we recommend that you begin preparing for its removal as soon as possible to ensure a smooth transition.

Deprecations

With this release, the following functionality has been deprecated:

None this month.

Discontinuations

With this release, the following functionality has been discontinued:

Support for Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Norwegian, Russian as Uptempo Standard Languages

As announced in the July and August 2025 releases, support for the following user interface (UI) languages has now been discontinued with the September 2025 release:

  • Chinese

  • Japanese

  • Korean

  • Norwegian

  • Russian

These languages were previously included as part of the Uptempo Standard Languages, which means that Uptempo regularly provided and maintained translations of product UI text as part of ongoing releases.

Note

You can manage UI languages in Uptempo under Administration > Overview > Look & Feel > UI Languages. These UI language settings apply to Uptempo Work modules, but not to Uptempo Plan or Spend.

What’s Changed

Support for the affected languages has officially ended with the September 2025 release on September 24, 2025. On this date:

  • If you had one or more of these languages enabled in your Uptempo instance, the affected languages were automatically converted to custom languages. This means:

    • These languages were moved from the Uptempo Standard Languages section to the Your Custom Languages section.

    • The moved languages retained all translations provided by Uptempo as of the July 2025 release, but will no longer receive updates from Uptempo.

    • You can continue using and extending these translations yourself, just like any other custom language.

  • If an affected language was not enabled in your Uptempo instance, it was removed entirely, and not migrated to the Your Custom Languages section.

    • The exception to this is if an affected language was not enabled, but had been modified using the Customize function. In this case, the customized language was automatically moved to the Your Custom Languages section.

Need Access to Past Translations?

If you would like to use an existing Uptempo-created translation after September 24, 2025, Uptempo will provide the translation data source file upon request (with all Uptempo-provided translations as of the July 2025 release). You can upload this file to create a new custom language in your instance.

If you have any questions or would like to request a translation file, please contact your Uptempo customer success manager, or reach out to our support tea
