Import Work Logs from Excel
Now you can import your work logs data from Excel, OpenOffice, LibreOffice, or Google Sheets files.
Notifications for Invoice Email Delivery Status
It happens that you send invoices directly from the application and make mistakes
when entering email addresses or there may be issues with the client's email servers.
From now on, you will automatically be notified if your invoice email has not been
delivered, regardless of whether the issue is temporary and the retransmission is
attempted automatically, or if it's a permanent error.
Automatically Generate Invoices from Online Payments through Stripe
If your payment process initially relies on online payments through Stripe, you
now have the ability to generate and automatically send the corresponding
invoice for the client's transaction.
This feature works with any platform that implements payments through
Stripe, including our own
woocommerce plugin.
Automatic recurring issuance of invoices, proformas and orders
The subscriptions(recurrents) defined by you can now issue both invoices and proformas or orders.
Add stamps to your invoices
We've added a new feature: Invoice Stamps. Now you can easily personalize your invoices (and other documents) with your companies stamp. Simply upload an image of your stamp and choose its placement within the invoice.
Filtering invoices by client country
We have introduced a new filtering criteria, namely the client's country. This way, you can easily filter "domestic" and "foreign" invoices.
Generation of invoices automatically upon payment of an order or proforma
You can now configure proformas and orders to automatically generate an invoice
when a payment is added.
The generated invoice will include all positions in the order/proforma, and all
recorded payments will be automatically associated with the created invoice.
Expanding user rights/permissions
Your account user permissions can be configured more granularly, allowing you to determine on an individual basis if a user can:
- add payments to your invoices, proforma invoices, and orders
- delete invoices and other documents
- view other users
Expanding Stripe Integration - automatically generate invoices for payments
We have expanded our Stripe integration to automatically generate invoices for all payments processed through the platform.
The invoice information will be derived from the metadata contained within the Stripe callback payloads. To support this new feature, we have also updated our e-commerce plugins to ensure seamless integration.
A new document type: orders
You can now create a new type of document: orders. Orders can subsequently be transformed into invoices or notices. You can also configure the order so that a invoice will automatically be generated upon payment.
This workflow can be very useful if you want to issue invoices only after payment. Obviously orders can also be paid online by your customers.
Here you can see some sample orders.
Extended invoice emailing features
We added some advanced features for sending your invoices via email to multiple
destinations. You can now choose the sending method to multiple destinations:
CC (all recipients will know each other's addresses) and BCC (recipients will not
know each other's addresses)
You can also choose a date and time to schedule email delivery of multiple
invoices instead of sending them instantly.
Extended Excel Export for Invoices
We've added a new extended invoices export which will be particularly useful for invoices with multiple currencies. All relevant numeric values (totals, VAT, etc...) are contained in both currencies. Additionally the export contains data about the invoice locale, exchange rate and branch office.
Permission system extended for Branch Offices
You can now associate one or multiple branch offices to every user. The associated branch offices can than be used by the user when creating invoices or other documents.
Easier bank accounts management
You can now add banks and bank accounts from the invoice form directly
Scheduled/Delayed document sending
You can now choose the date and time for the email delivery of a invoice, contract or other document.
