What's new?
Salesperson on Parts & Accessories / Service or Repair Job
We have now exposed the Salesperson fields on Parts & Accessories and Service or Repair Jobs
Just like the Unit Deals you will be able to assign multiple Salespersons to these transaction but unlike Unit Deals, you will be unable to indicate a Commission amount
By default it will be set to the Salesperson related to the login user who created the transaction
Any Invoice Reporting will now properly reflect any Salesperson/s that have been assigned
For further information, please review our article - Setup Customer Order - Salesperson
Internal Customer Order documents auto printing - Removed
Internal Invoices such as finalising Deal Service / Deal Merch will no longer auto generate a PDF of the Invoice in a new browser tab
Remember that these Internal Invoices are not required (internal) so we have removed this auto generate PDF function
Printing of these types of invoices is still available in the Invoice History section of the relevant Customer Order
Notes for Customer section is now available on Parts & Accessories section
The Notes for Customer section was always available on the Customer Order > Unit Deal and Service Job but we have now introduced this section on the Parts & Accessories section too
Remember that any text that has been typed into the Notes for Customer section will show on the relevant Customer end documents ie Parts Invoice
Unit VINs will now be Uppercase
Unit VINs will now be converted and saved to uppercase regardless of how they were entered by the user
CO checkout - Change due visibility
When finalizing the checkout and there is a Change Due amount, we are allowing the user to see this amount in the print modal window so it’s visible to the user when printing which may be their way of triggering a cash drawer to open
Customer Order attachments
Increased the size limit to 25MB to attach PDFs on Customer Order
For further information, please review our article - Customer Orders - Upload Forms / How to Add Forms - Manually or Linked (Automatically) / Adding Attachments
Stock Unit Records - Service Order Job history
When viewing the service jobs history listing for a unit, a new column has been added to indicate the status of the job so you no longer have to guess if the CO is open or invoiced etc
Payroll Clocking / Job clocking - auto clock out
We have implemented a scheduled process at midnight everyday to automatically clock out any payroll clocking and/or job clocking entries which are active
Examples:
- if your tech has job clocked into a job at 4pm but then went home at 5.30pm without job clocking out of the job, then at midnight, they will be automatically clocked out
- if your tech payroll clocked in but forgot to payroll clock out when they were leaving for the day, at midnight they will be automatically closed out
