New and Enhanced Features
New Appointment Book
The appointment book has been completely redesigned to provide our users with a greater level of functionality, ease of use, graphical interface, and customization.
Appointment Search
The appointment search user interface has been redesigned for increased flexibility and ease of use. The appointment search now allows the user to search for available openings for up to five services. The search results now features a robust user interface that displays the search results in a user-friendly grid.
New Graphical Interface
The entire interface has been enhanced with new graphics and is now built on Microsoft’s latest suite of Windows controls.
Product Ordering and Purchase Order Integration
Product ordering and purchase orders have now been integrated. When ordering products from the Product Ordering screen, the software will automatically generate a purchase order and track the status of all orders. Purchase orders now include a status field for each row item that will allow the user to easily track the status of an order (In Process, Incomplete or Complete). Once all items have been received, the software will automatically close the purchase order and update your inventory.
Services Linked with Resources
This amazing new feature will allow the user to link a resource with a service. If a service requires a resource, the software will automatically book the employee and the resource when creating a ticket. In previous versions of the software, this had to be done manually.
Multiple Merchant Accounts in X-Charge
If you are using the built-in credit card processing option, you can now setup multiple merchant accounts. Once a merchant account has been created for the independent contractor (booth renter), any transaction linked to the independent contractor will be deposited in his or her individual merchant account. This highly anticipated feature is now fully functional and easy to implement.
Document Tracking
This new feature allows the user to establish a system by which important documents and their relation to clients can be organized and tracked. An unlimited number of unique or generic documents can be assigned to each client.
Gift Certificates
The gift certificate system has been redesigned to provide a variety of new features. When a gift certificate is sold, specific products and/or services can be applied to the gift certificate as well as a currency amount. The redeeming of products and/or services for a given gift certificate is now completely automated. A gift certificate can be a combination of both a currency value and products/services. Additionally, gift certificates can be setup to expire after a specified date.
Online Appointment Booking
Online appointment booking has been redesigned to allow complete customization of graphics, colors and fonts. Employee service limitations now work with online booking.
Pre-Paid Quantities in Packages
When creating new packages, the user is now able to define pre-paid quantities within the package. This type of functionality was available in previous versions of the software but only at the individual service level, not when creating packages.
Minor Features
