FreeAgent Update: Double Gloucester

Posted on 30 July 2007 by Ed Molyneux – Comments (2)

A few small changes this week:

Due Invoices on the Overview Page

Some of our beta testers send lots of invoices, so the list of due and overdue ones on the overview page can be very long. Now only the first five are displayed, and the amount owing on the others is summarised below these.

Creating New Timeslips, Expenses and Mileage

When you add a new timeslip, expense or mileage record, the same values as the last one you entered are used as the initial values, hopefully saving some typing.

'Share Capital' and 'Capital Introduced' Explanations

If you are a Sole Trader, you can enter 'Money Received from User > Capital Introduced' and for a Limited Company there is 'Money Received From User > Share Capital Introduced'. These should be used to explain the appropriate injections of money from you into your company.

Over to you...

Hi Ed

I'm not sure I'm loving the time slip values magic. It means I now need to delete everything in the fields before I can populate them again!

Two suggestions:

1.) Make this a user preference (probably over-kill) or
2.) Leave the fields auto-populating as they do now but when I select a different task from the pull-down menu, clear the hours and comment fields.

Thanks!

Thanks for the feedback, Michael.

We're going to have a think about a way to get the best of both worlds here - there's always a trade-off as you can imagine.

Don't forget that if you 'tab' between the fields the text is pre-selected and is deleted when you start typing.

We might allow you to just click in the fields to achieve the same thing, which might streamline things a little.
