New Features
User Preferences
- Several features to make user's life with ATOLLON easier added, incl. possibility to set default application that is open after login. You can select any popular app (Communication, Tasks, Time Sheet, Invoices, ...) or you can create new custom app and select it as well (Deals, Service, Technology tracking, etc.)
- Users may setup forwarding e-mail address, where all internal notifications will be sent.
- Users may update their preferred system language without admin's assistance.

Enhancements
Communication
- Using communication by keyboard only improved. Now you can browse messages, delete them using keyboard only. After communication is open, first message is highlighted.
- It is now much easier to add new person to company, incl. contact information or position name.
Deals, projects
- It is easier now to create new client during new deal or project creation. Until now you had to switch to Finder, now the user workflow is smoother.
- It is possible to create project under sub-folders even from projects / deals overview. Until now this was possible only using Finder.
- It is possible to create organization branches (sub-folders) during New project creation. This helps when client has branches and you want to fine-tune relationship to larger organizations with branches.
- Integration to several ERP systems in one ATOLLON workspace is now easier. Consolidation of records among several organization units (ie contacts database or products) is easier.
- Deal calculation improved for multi-currency products with purchase prices.

General
- Login to system is now automated on trusted computers. No need to add password twice.

Invoices Issued
- It is possible to change default due days for issued invoices. Previously this setup was per contact, now the default is general (for the whole system), but you can still add individual due days to each contact.
- It is possible to disable editing invoice number(s) for users without invoicing super-powers (authorize rights).
Invoices Received
- Approval value is now by default calculated from total excl. VAT.
