What's new with Paragon - November 15, 2017

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.

Receive a payment without a vendor invoice

Sometimes you'll receive money from a vendor without having issued them an invoice. In these particular situations, the vendor is likely paying you for a recurring service or for a vendor invoice that will be issued in the future. Until the time that the invoice is created, you need to be able to record the payment inside Paragon. This is where a manual payment receipt comes in. When creating a payment receipt, you will notice that there is a new tab called 'manual'. This tab allows you to create the payment without a vendor invoice.


Rules engine re-designed

Rules are little pieces of code that you can build to change Paragon's normal behavior. With this update you'll receive a new interface where you can set up these rules. You can now also search in rules for names, triggers, descriptions. For more information on how rules work and some examples of how you can use rules for your business, check out our documentation or video.

Re-designed timeout landing pages

If you're in Paragon for too long with no activity, your session will time out. When this happens, you're brought to a new webpage. This webpage has been changed to to be more consistent with the rest of the software and branding.
