Customized Email Domains
Custom domains are more popular than ever. Instead of seeing "@gmail.com" or "@yahoo.com," you'll see domains like "@contractor.com" or "@admin.services." No matter what your customers use, our system now supports email addresses with custom domains—giving you more flexibility and making it easier to save and send emails to any address.
Updates Notes Format
Account Notes, Admin Notes, Job Notes, and Invoice Messages now retain their text styling before you click Save, making them easier to read and edit on the fly. This update allows you to save well-formatted notes, apply unique styling—such as bold or italics—and add links.
Ability to Void Invoices
Accidentally created an invoice? No problem! You can now void invoices to keep reporting clean and accurate. Learn more about this feature by reading our, "How to Void an Invoice" article.
