What's new in Version 18.7.9.3 launched in July 2018
Customer Advance Management:
We have churned out the most sought-after feature in this update, “accepting advance payments from a customer.”
For example, if an order amount is 478 and the customer has paid 500 for it, we can now easily accept remaining
amount (22) as advance payment to be adjusted in the next order.
- This has impacted almost every screen/ workflow in-store module. Advance can be accepted or the remaining balance can be used in the following workflows:
- Order generation
- Delivery
- Customer order details
- Multiple payment and delivery
- Other than the above workflow following screen has changed.
- Customer All screen a new column “advances” added to display remaining balance for a customer.
- Add Customer - advance available for a customer is displayed and also this advance can be adjusted (increase/decrease) from the “Advance Balance Adjustment” button, of-course controlled by an access right.
- Customer Order Details - Advance balance is displayed on the top of other analytics.
- Customer -> Customer Advances, a new screen is added, transactions related to advances (received and used) for all customers are displayed here for easy reference.
- Both invoices (laser and thermal) will print advance balance at order creation/ editing.
- Advance balance will be sent in SMS too.
- If a garment is returned from any of the processing screens (send to the workshop, receive from the workshop, mark ready and delivered), the amount can be returned in as customer advance to be adjusted in the next order.
- Details cash book clearly mention transaction related to advance.
- Payment type report will have a new head for checking advance transactions. (Advance-Customer Advance and Delivery - Customer Advance)
- Order report, two new columns are added for advance received and advance used against an order.
- Super Admin Panel a new menu “Customer Advance” is added
