  1. Clasify whether the items is a reoccuring cost or a one-time cost

    Make it so I can include in the estimate the difference between a one-time cost and a reoccurring cost. And have this be a check box when adding a new item into Books.

    Items Check Box: "Is this a reoccurring cost"

  2. Estimates Section

    In the Estimate Section , I would like to have the status update when its converted to Sales Order " From accepted to Converted to sales order"

    Please do the needful as we are getting confused which estimate is accepted but doesnt convert to sales order.

    We have it in the activity history but we would like to see in the estimation status itself before opening it.

  3. Fix the workflow disconnect for Estimates to Sales Order and beyond.

    There is no ability to calculate shipping in the Estimate. One has to create a Sales Order, then create a package(s), write down the info, back out of Packages and lose the data, key the total into the Estimate. When customer accepts you need to go back into the SO and recreate the packages, then move the confirmed SO out and on to fulfillment. Too many steps, redundancy built in. Should have Package ability in the estimate, and an accepted Estimate should also be convertible to a Sales Order (not just directly to an Invoice). Thank you.

  6. Will it be possible to add an option in Estimates to hide the SKU?

    Hi,

    I know it is possible to hide the SKU on all PDF's, but will it be possible to add an option only to hide it in the Estimates module?

  8. A selection for contact name under the field for ATTN

    It will be good if there is a new drop list or selection to choose the new created Estimate or Invoice is ATTN to which contact user within the same company. Currently it is very troublesome where A company has many different contact from different department, but the created PDF is always being defaulted to primary contact. And in order to set ATTN to the user we want, we have to manually go to Contact setting to assign the user as primary role, then switch to another contact name again for invoicing. Very inconvenient and time consuming.

  9. Hi! we're having a problem printing our custom invoice and estimate templates. Having too much content in those templates to print only on "

    Hi! we're having a problem printing our custom invoice and estimate templates. Having too much content in those templates to print only on "usLetter" format, I'm asking you to unlock the "usLegal" printing format at least for our personnalized custom templates. We"re a franchisor and we're about get our franchises to implement with your system after testing completed and meet our standard. Thanks

  10. Must have ability to re-orders fields on templates versus being stuck with the order (time) each field was added.

    This applies to all Books fields within the various templates (Estimates, Sales Orders).

  11. CRM/Books Integration -

    We lose a ton of options because we choose to use Books. Here is a list of what we lose by using books. It doesn't seem smart to penalize your customers when they choose to add more of your services.

    1 - No Docusign in Books
    2 - The HTML options are limited when creating a custom estimate template.
    3 - Terms & Conditions has a word count max.
    4 - Not able to manually approve an estimate in CRM

  13. Filter : Quotes by sales person

    Hey, it would be great to have a filter on quotes by sales person. I can't see how many quotes (and the amount of the pipeline) have been done by salesman for a specific period.

  14. re-arrange the sequence of rows in app

    in the app there is no option to rearrange the sequence of rows in estimates or invoices. eg. its not possible to take the last row of the estimate to the top of estimate. or insert a new row between the existing rows.

  15. Better column filtering

    It would be very helpful to have actual column filtering instead of creating new views.

    For example, if you could click on "customer name' and then a dialogue box pops up and you can then click on which customer you would like to filter on. It would make it much quicker to find the estimate/ sales order/ invoice that we are looking for.

    Thanks!

  18. Last updated date in estimation export

    When we export an estimate, we would like a last updated date as one of the field. It not being there has major issue in integration with our CRM and other system that we are using. And having to manually enter date in custom field is casuing a lot of hours being wasted.

  19. Estimates with photos

    I think you should have a Item Photo, for each part number.

    For example, when I chose item#123-4 ... the parts, description, and a (small, medium, or large) photo appears next to the description. The photo should need to be uploaded in a .jpg image with max res of 400x400 and must be named the same as item# (ie ... 123-4.jpg )

    I have a picture of an example if you would like to see it. Its much more professional.

  20. Categorize the Estimate in PDF view

    Can you let us to categorize the Estimate with the functions to be more clear for customers for example :
    I am working in smart home solutions and need to categorize the estimate for Lighting section to contain all lighting equipments and HVAC to contain all materials it need and so on just one bar line to identify the content of the following items

    and this option should be marked from setting to enable or disable it and add different category for each Estimate
