April / June Autotask Release notes

Approve and Post Improvements

Approve and post getting a filter to show 50,100 or 150 items per screen is great.

Invoice preview allowing for the invoice configuration change and then processing immediately is a great step forward in a direction I like:

Edit items from the invoice preview screen:

I’m still motivated by this feature request because it would allow more control. Instead of unposting all items and then having to repost them I’d like to:

Click ”edit” on an item, Autotask shows me the edit screen. When I submit my changes Autotask unposts the item, changes it, then reposts it and updates my preview screen.

That all could happen on ONE time entry for example.

Outlook Upgrade to support x64

This should not be important for you. If you’re deploying 64 bit office at this point you most likely made a mistake. Please let me know if you disagree.

New Live Reports Software

This is an incredible new feature that could be covered by full article… and it probably will be, stay tuned.

LiveMoble Updates

It’s nice to see that this feature is available for no additional charge in read only mode. For our firm the software is not quite there yet as far as showing enough value to purchase the software, however, if the new Social interfaces in Autotask (Wall views) were to make it into LiveMobile the software would be MUCH more tempting.

I would echo other Autotask community members who would say please slow down development on this software and put more time back into the core Autotask product.
