Clearing General Ledger Entries functionality disappeared

Since the update of Business Central 25 the local functionality for the Netherlands for clearing General Ledger Entries has disappeared. Within Microsoft Learn it says the local functions will disappear and be replaced by features for all regions. However, we don’t see a good working alternative. Especially with the Year-end closing at us, the controllers and the financial department are in panic. They use it very often to keep order in the balance sheets.

Apply and Unapply General Ledger Entries [NL] - Business Central | Microsoft Learn

We use this functionality to keep track of the rest amount on several General Ledger Entries, like personal loans with monhtly pay-back, prepaid amounts that must be spread over the entire year, etc. The preposed alternative of reviewing amounts is totally different. Because this only adds a tag to the posts, but does not show the rest amount. Also to use this feature we need to un-review a post in order to review it with a new post which is added later.

Do you know any alternative for this local functionality?
We are using Business Central in the cloud in the Netherlands. 
 
Example:
Invoice for 12k is processed in january. 1/12 is posted in january, the rest is put on the balance. 
Each month 1k is posted into the costs and -/- 1k is posted on the balance.
The -/- 1k is cleared each month, so the Rest Amount shows only 10k (11k -/- 1k) after the first month, 9K (11k -/- 2* -/-1k) after the second, etc.

    I think you can raise this issue with Microsoft.

    I overheard one of our partner consultant mention it might come back in version BC27. We can't wait that long, so we've decided to re-create this functionality with a customization.

    In the Belgium version of BC online, this function "Apply entries" from General Ledger Entries has disappeared too! Users use this fucntion frequently. I hope there is an alterantive for this function, or that the function can be re-added in with an update of BC

    As I already mentioned is the proposed functionality of reviewing Review general ledger accounts - Business Central | Microsoft Learn not the same. This only links several posts together with an additional tagg. You don't see the som of all reviewed amounts. 

    Example
    If I have a post of 12.000 and each month 1.000 is being transferred to a different General Ledger Account. After three months and reviewing (new) or applying (old) these posts with the original, I would get the following results:

    Old:
    Original post: 12.000 (originel amount), 9.000 (rest amount)
    1st monthly post: -1.000 (original amount), 0 (rest amount) 
    2nd monthly post: -1.000 (original amount), 0 (rest amount)
    3th monthly post: -1.000 (original amount), 0 (rest amount)
     
    New:
    Original post: 12.000 (originel amount), 12.000 (rest amount), Tagg1 (review)
    1st monthly post: -1.000 (original amount), -1.000 (rest amount), Tagg1 (review)
    2nd monthly post: -1.000 (original amount), -1.000 (rest amount), Tagg1 (review)
    3th monthly post: -1.000 (original amount), -1.000 (rest amount), Tagg1 (review)

    The advantage of the old methode, is we can filter on rest-amount <>0 and we only see the amounts which contribute to the sum of the General Ledger Account total amount. And we can easily see what the original amount was and what's left of this amount.

    Apply & Unapply is a Common Feature, and as per my knowledge it can't be removed. There could a different issue for that.

    As far as I know its being replaced with the following feature which is available in all country/region versions - Review general ledger accounts - Business Central | Microsoft Learn
