In order to add gallery to your projects or folders, you need to update your Layout settings.

Major Updates

Call Centre

  • Atollon jsme integrovali na nejnovější API společnosti Spinoco, která poskytuje služby call centra. Atollon tak díky tomu podporuje kompletní automatizaci obchodních aktivit firmy, včetně telefonie.

Print Module

  • We are changing the way documents are printed using Atollon, moving the whole logic from client side to server side. This allows us print reports (ie PDF, XLS, Word) to be fully automated. In upcoming weeks, we'll add new default way of printing. Now we have completed invoice and service activity printouts.

Invoice

  • Now we're (finally) able to send invoices automatically, without involvement of users. It's just necessary to set-up new "To be sent" status, install new workflow plugin for automated invoice sending and we're done :-).

Enhancements

Calendar

  • New CalDAV functionality now accessible to all clients, every user may receive CalDAV settings in Calendar and set-up their mobile access. You can also find link to guide on how to setup CalDAV access on your iOS or Android device.

Contacts

  • Several improvements to contacts import tool - now possible to import persons & companies together and create contact groups automatically (map several columns as contact groups). Better identification of duplicates during contact import (uses new, robust IdentifyContact server function).

Deal

  • New method for updating Sales Items, when total deal sales / purchase value changes (it moves the logic from client side to server side to make calculation of deal value more consistent across implementations)
  • It is possible to use form designer to calculate deal values (useful once you have more complex of deal value calculation based on many variables / discounts / commissions, etc.)
  • When creating Purchase Order from Sales Items, Supplier of those items is set automatically based on product's settings.
  • It is possible now to import Sales Items into deal.

Finder

  • It is possible to put specific name to folder, project or activity comment
