With every new release of our software we do our best to include as many of your requests as possible. Over the past week I’ve introduced many of the “larger” features we’ve included in the upcoming 2016 version. Today I get to share with you some of the “smaller” (but still highly requested!) features you’ll also find in the 2016 release.
We’ve added…
- The ability to select the initial status for sessions that are created through online booking.
- Options to automatically generate pre-production orders (similar to how production orders can be automatically created).
- A new option for session number configuration that includes the session date and the client’s last name and first name (for example, “20160115-MerritCheryl”).
- The ability to copy an invoice or estimate.
- The ability to re-link an invoice from one session or client to another without having to re-create the invoice.
- A new option to hide price list item groups.
- The ability to set the start and/or end date(s) a price list item is available to be used. This feature can be very helpful with the new promotional items.
- The ability to assign all incoming non-reply SMS text messages to a user and/or department.
- A new option to limit which IP addresses a Stratus Web user can log in from.
- Many new custom fields for preproduction and production orders.
- The ability to use the following new fields in filters, column choosers, emails, and letters:
- Session – Primary Resource (Location)
- Session – Date Confirmed
- Appointment – Primary Resource (Location)
- Appointment – Date Confirmed
- Client – Last Call Date
We know many of you have sent in requests during the past year. We truly wish we could address every single one of your suggestions! Nevertheless, as long as all of you (the best customers in the world!) continue to send in your requests and suggestions, we commit to doing our part by continuing to innovate and improve our products, keeping them the best in the industry! Stay tuned for the official Preview Release of Spectra and myStratus 2016.
This is another reason I love Studio Plus–constant improvement. It’s like we have our own IT team working…but you guys really do work it and make improvements!
I like the new naming of date client first_client last–that’s a winner!
I love the ability to copy an invoice! That’ll save me time and would have this week.
The ability to restrict access to pre-determined and approved IP addresses is a much needed requisite for any company–this may very well allow me to go to my stratus!
Looking forward to the search by phone number where it searches all phone number fields at once.
Thank you Matt, and your entire Studio Plus team!!
