What's new with Paragon - December 14, 2016

New features and bug fixes every two weeks. Come back here to check out what's new.

Here's what we've been working on to make ParagonERP work better for you.

A new way to set up reference screens

In Paragon, it's completely up to you to decide how your reference screens are set up. To help you change this setup on your own, we have completely re-designed the tool that is used to make these customizations. If you go to the screen setup option in the system card, you'll see all the modules you can make changes to.


Review your boxes before they're issued

With the last update we added the ability to box a shipment and now, before you close a box, you can go back and review them. This allows you to make sure that all your units are boxed correctly before you print labels and/or send the information to your vendor.



Receive payment logic rede?signed

You can enter a payment into Paragon directly from an invoice or from the receive payment module. A payment can be applied to an entire invoice, part of an invoice or multiple invoices. When you receive a payment that is greater than the value of an invoice, the remaining balance is placed on account and can be applied to an invoice at a later date.


Rules

Rules can be turned on or off in Paragon based on how you run your business. Below you'll find the rules that have been created over the last two weeks. Keep in mind, however, that we have many more available.

  • You can make sure that invoices cannot be put into issued status if they've been created off an order. If creating an invoice off an order is not part of your standard workflow, turning on this rule ensures that a user doesn't accidentally follow the wrong process.
  • Once your sales reps are set up with their customers and commissions, you can keep track of the dollar value commission on an invoice by invoice basis.


Bugs

Here's a list of pesky bugs we squashed with this update:

  • To set up your financials, you link specific GL accounts to different areas of transactions that should affect your ledger. For example, product financials on an invoice can be linked to affect a specific GL account while exchange on an invoice can go to another GL account. We found a bug that didn't allow you to save these types of changes. This has been corrected.
