Creating a new user

Hi all,
Great news, ahead of schedule we have rolled out some new functionality, which allows employees to be created at the same time as the administrator creates a new user on their BT BizBox account preventing any duplication.

When you create a new user at the bottom of the online form there is now the option to select them as an employee, by clicking this box the employee record is automatically created in your employee module.

I’ll be adding it to the help and support videos so you can see how useful it can be.

Thanks
Sarah

A busy week at BT BizBox

Hi,
What a busy week we have had at BT BizBox:)

I am delighted to say we have busy building new functionality for you. Currently we are in process of testing and we are aiming to roll it to live over the weekend.

The reports have now been completed with the added capability of downloading in pdf format. So, you will be able to run reports for;

1. Number quotes raised over a period of time.
2. % conversion rate of quotes to invoices.
3. Number of invoices paid and outstanding.
4. Number of tasks raised by user.
5. Outstanding tasks per user.
6. Number of tasks closed per user.

In addition to the reporting functionality we are also planning on rolling to live the new exciting route optimisation tool.
This tool has been built this week and even though I say it myself, it’s a great addition to the BT BizBox functionality :)

I’ll update you on our testing and the planned times for the rollouts over the weekend.

Thanks
Sarah

Route Optimisation tool

Hi All,
One of the first developments in phase one of our committed roadmap will be rolling to live this week, route optimisation with links into googlemaps.

So what is the route optimisation tool……..?

The route optimisation tool will allow you to calculate the best route for your journey. By entering postcodes of your starting and finishing location, the tool will provide you with the best and shortest route within seconds. It also provides you with a googlemap of your journey.

This tool is great for all you traveling salespeople, no more indecisiveness on which is the quickest way :) You can also share it with others in your team, those who you are meeting up with, or for information on your location at certain times during the day, for those back in the office.

We should have some screen shots in a couple of days, which I will post for you all to see.

Let us know what you think.

Thanks
Sarah
