Smart Service Update 120: New Deposit Process

Smart Service Update 120 brings some customer-requested features and improvements!

Smart Service Update 120 | New Deposit Process Added

Update 120 brings a brand new way to keep track of your invoices and emails in Smart Service!

New Deposit Process

We’ve added a new option for how to manage deposits collected through Smart Service. Using this new option, you can define a Deposit Item that will be used to represent the deposit collected. This option was added to enable users to define a separate QuickBooks account for deposits, for customers that use a current liabilities account. (Enhancements 9231, 9829 & 9880)

Track Emails Sent through Smart Service

Starting in version 120, when you use one of the email options in Smart Service to send an email, Smart Service will create an email correspondence record, so you can see what was sent to the customer and when it was sent. (Enhancements 9086 & 9851)
