Spruce Mobile Delivery in Production!

Customers have asked us to modernize the delivery process to allow Drivers to collect customer signatures and delivery photos, and to send delivery emails to customers when deliveries are complete. Spruce Mobile Delivery (Powered by JumpTrack) has all those features and more! To learn more, see Spruce Mobile Delivery Delivers!

Selecting a Document Style for Email Attachments

Based on your votes in the Ideas Portal, we are adding a new feature that allows Point of Sale users to choose a document style format for email attachments. Whether you are sending an order invoice, a quote, a direct ship invoice, a payment receipt, or a purchase order, authorized users can choose the format of the attached document. As an administrator, you can also choose a default format for the branch. This attachment format determines whether pricing and quantity information are included in the document before it is emailed. See Selecting Document Styles for Email Attachments.

New: VAT Tax Totals Percentages Display on Invoices

For some businesses in the Caribbean, there is a requirement to show the VAT percentages for items with different tax assessments on invoices. We have added a new parameter that can add this calculation to your transaction documents, which can be enabled by the Implementation and Support staff. To learn more about this feature, see VAT Tax Totals Percentages Display on Invoices (Region-Specific).
