✝️Happy Easter, everyone! 🐣We hope that your season is off to a great start and you are starting to fall into some rhythms. We are hard at work on 3 major areas of the program. Over the next several months, we will be continuing to roll out some significant upgrades. Stay tuned for more details and information as we get closer to unveiling these exciting new features. Here is some of the work that we have been up to over the past few weeks.

In preparation for a major upgrade and overhaul for scheduling and routing, we had to upgrade some ways in which the code is handled. Unfortunately this caused something to break. We got them fixed up as quickly as they were identified. We appreciate your understanding for the momentary glitches.

When building a maintenance job, users will often be very intentional in the order of the work areas. They will typically order them in an order that reflects when they will occur during the season. This helps with presentation to the customer as well as how the company may think about things. However, when going to schedule the work, the system would reorder things. We have fixed that so that now when you go to schedule maintenance work, it reflects the order you have the work areas in the plan. We hope this is helpful and makes scheduling easier.

If you have a recuring event, that needs to be updated mid season, we did not have a way to easily do that. For example: John has a mowing stop at 2:00pm on Wednesdays. Lets say things changed and now Bob is going to do that mowing stop at 10:00am on Wednesday. Previously that had to be done to each individual event. Now, if you open the event when that change will occur, you have the option to update that event only or that event and all future events. This should make it much easier to adjust crew leads and or times mid season.

As you know, tax is not collected on a down payment invoice. You have an option to include the down payment deduction and collect tax on that amount on any future invoice. We found that with Canadian tax codes, that was not occurring, as it should. We were able to find the problem and get it taken care of. Now, our Canadian users should be able to collect tax, as anticipated.

When using Safari as your web browser the property address location shown was not matching the actual property address. No matter what property you were creating a job for, the map image was showing the same random location. We found the issue where Safari was not displaying the actual property address. This should be good now.

Over the last several months, we have been giving you the ability to add rich text to your internal work area notes. The last area we needed to do this was in templates. You now have the ability, when creating a new template, to include rich text in your internal work area notes. They will transfer seamlessly into the job work area. So, now anywhere you create internal work area notes on the web app, you can utilize rich text.
