What's new?
Accounts Receivable Balances in Accounting Package is now visible in Blackpurl
For those Dealerships that have accounting integration and also run debtor accounts (Charge on Account), we have allowed for any customers that have an Accounts Receivable Balance in the Accounting Package to be now visible in Blackpurl
- On the relevant Customer Record itself
- When processing a Customer Order for that relevant Customer within the Customer information and also the Invoice History sections
This will be allow all staff to be able to see if anything is outstanding to the Dealership when actually serving the customer and then be able to in an instance be able to do a Payment of Account action directly from the Customer Order
Where can you see this information:
- Customer order > Customer information section
Note the indicator 
in the customer header section to indicate there is an Accounts Receivable (A/R) Balance outstanding then within the Customer section details of the A/R Balance and the option to Receive payment of Account
- Customer order > Invoice History section
Note the new A/R Balance column
- Customer Record
Note the A/R Balance details
- Reporting > Customer Invoice
The user can filter using AR Balance (Great than 0) and also have the option of adding a new column - AR Balance

Unit Mileage on Deal Units
When units or trade ins are added to a Unit Deal, the mileage field is now available on the deal screen and are populated with the current mileage of the unit from the relevant Unit Record
The user now has the ability to change both the mileage and mileage type directly on the Unit Deal section
Any changes made will not alter the mileage on the source unit but will be applied to the unit records generated from finalising the deal ie when the trade in unit is stocked, the unit record will keep the new mileage and mileage type
Deal documents will also use the mileage fields from the Deal instead of the source unit
