This release features a completely reimagined integration to Quickbooks Online, security improvements, and a number of usability enhancements and fixes.
Enhancements
Vorex QuickBooks Online Integration
- The QuickBooks Online (QBO) integration experience has been completely redesigned and has also been upgraded to leverage the latest version of the QBO API for improved efficiency and stability. Enhancements include:
- Redesigned user interface.
- You can now define default account codes for services and inventory. In cases where account codes have not been specified in the Vorex setup tables, the default codes will be used. This is a time saver when exporting invoices as you no longer have to inspect the logs and manually make corrections for missing accounts in the setup tables.
- A new option allows you to assign QBO invoice numbers when creating invoices in QBO.
- Invoices can be exported without any prior sync operations. Any data needed to support the Invoice export will be created on an as needed basis.
- Large import/export operations will now process in the background until they are complete. The previous time limit that interfered with this process has been removed.
- See the new QuickBooks Online Integration Guide for further details. The Guide includes a description of the data mapping between Vorex and QBO.
Note: If you had previously connected to QBO, you will need to reconnect. After connecting, you must configure and save the new Invoice Options which will control the Invoice Export process going forward.
Vorex QuoteWerks Integration
- QuoteWerks recently released v5.5 which includes changes to thier API. To support this, there are now two download options for the QuoteWerks connector desktop application: one for v5.4 and prior, and another for v5.5 and above. (It is no longer possible to support all released versions of QuoteWerks with a single desktop application; hense, providing two connector apps is the approach that is recommended by QuoteWerks.).
CALL TO ACTION: When you upgrade to QuoteWerks v5.5, you should uninstall the existing desktop connector, then download and install the v5.5 connector. NOTE: some customers may have received a pre-release connector for v5.5 via Kaseya Support. This pre-release connector should now be uninstalled, and the new v5.5 connector included with this release should be installed and used going forward.
Vorex Security
- In Service Desk, security roles can now grant delete permissions separately from modify permissions allowing more granular control. Permissions have also been added to govern the deletion of notes.
- Parent employees can login to a child instance using MFA, SAML SSO, or AuthAnvil authentication.
Vorex CRM
- You can now capture an effective date when contacts are activated and deactivated. A log shows changes to the active status.
Vorex APIs
- A new API Endpoint allows update of contact active status and effective date.
Vorex Finance
- A new invoice template is available called 'Detailed Invoice, Aggregated by Name, Desc & Unit Price.' With this template, billing transactions with the same item name, description, unit price and effective date are aggregated into a single line-item.
- Recurring services billing review now shows both the effective date and period end date for greater visibility of recurring services transactions.
