It's been another busy month for the dev team. Although (in the UK at least), we've had a lot of national and school holidays (Easter), we've by no means slowed our usually high-paced release schedule.

The phrase "Time and tide wait for no man" comes to mind... but it should really be rewritten to "Time, new features and tide wait for no man".

Here are a few of the items that have taken the bulk of the team's time this month, together with a brief description:

Employee Payment Terms

We've added a brand new feature as an enhancement to our Commissions module. You can now create your employee payment profiles. The system will then report to you the monthly payments due to your internal agents!

Monthly Usage Tool

When switched on it will allow you to store monthly usage interval data you hold for the meter in question, feeding into your commissions. Simply locate the relevant file, upload and let the UtilityClick system do the rest.

We've completed the US phase of this feature. Next month we plan to begin the implementation process on the UK system.

Other bits and bobs...

It's never just about the big projects. We've also added the following other bits and bobs...

HH MATRIX LOOKUP ADJUSTMENTS

The system has been enhanced to return the appropriate Available Capacity rate based on kVA banding levels.

CLICK-TO-DIAL TOOLTIP UPDATE

The click-to-dial tooltip has been updated to show the phone number for the appropriate contact for those TPIs not using the dialler integrator software.

LEAD EXPORT OPTIMISATION

Exporting lead data from the system for our TPIs who have lots of leads was taking a while. We've optimised the export now to reduce waiting times for accessing the report.

NEW ACTIVITY TYPE

We've added "Tender Refresh" to our list of Tender Activity Types. Ideal when your customer doesn't sign down the first time around!

ACTIVITY EXPORT IMPROVEMENT

The time that an activity is created/due/completed has now been added to the activity export report.

CUSTOMER PORTAL UPDATE

The product name for quotes/contracts has been added to the customer portal to help your end-user customers on tender day.

"NO ACCESS" USERS

These are users who can be added for internal purposes but do not increase the cost of subscription.

SPEED INCREASE FOR TENDER CREATION

We've made speed improvements to the creation of major tenders - with bigger optimisations on the way soon!

That’s it for this month.

Our software evolves at such an exciting rate so please feel free to get in touch to discuss any of the functionality we’ve added since you last saw it. We’ll be more than happy to arrange a demo to show you around!
