The first feature update of the new year is here!

In this release we've addressed the following points:

Default data

  • It is now possible to create default data templates. This allows you to create fixed lists of items, which you can use to import items quickly for any type of object

Messages

  • It is now possible to delete incoming messages completely
  • Incoming messages can be connected to any object in your database
  • Messages can now be easily imported from another program, like Outlook

Order registrations

  • The status of an order can now be set while creating the order, not just after it has been created
  • The supplier field has been changed to an inline-editable field, in stead of a pop-up dialog

Port visits

  • The port visit overview now has more relevant columns in the different list, like the 'previous berth' column in the Sailed list

Task groups

  • The new task groups interface has been improved
  • Task checklists can now be quickly selected from a button in the task groups box

Templating

  • It is now possible to directly use Word and Excel documents as the source of a template
  • Word templates can be automatically converted to PDF

Vessels

  • The search mechanism in the vessels database has been improved to return more relevant search results
