A new feature has been introduced which will help make Inter-Company transactions easier.

Customers now have a new icon at the top right of the details screen which is used to create the Inter-Company link. Click on the button to open a list of the active companies available to link to.

Select a company and enter the Supplier code in that company which will be used to raise the Purchase invoice. Only one link, to one supplier in each company, can be created.

When a Sales invoice has been raised on this customer, a new Batch will be created in the linked company with the name Inter-Company Transactions.

Credit card transactions can now be imported so they can be reconciled using Direct Feed.

The Credit Limit for Customers and Suppliers has been increased to £999999999.99.

When entering a new Tenancy there will now be a warning given if the Property is not Compliant.

The Property Active field has been added to the Compliance screen and can be selected from the field chooser. The screen defaults to show only Active properties but there is a tick box to Show inactive properties as well:

Also there is now a Go to Property List in the Compliance screen. This has been added to help identify which properties are missing a specific Compliance task or action.

To help landlords meet the minimum EPC requirement there is now the option to add a Minimum EPC value to properties. This is entered against the Property Type. There is a new option to set the EPC Type to None for such things as Land.

In the Property details screen the minimum rating is displayed beside the EPC type, above the Current and Potential values.

If the property type e.g. Land is set to None and the EPC minimum is set to None the EPC fields will be greyed out and the property will be ticked as Exempt.
