  • PW-14253 - Updated our image clean up utilities. Dealers can thumbs down images in the catalog and then those images will be removed.

  • PW-14422 - Removed Circular references with Attachments. So if Item B has next attachments Item C → Item D → Item E then when Item B is attached to Item A, Item A should have the full chain: Item A → Item B → Item C → Item D → Item E. We do not need to copy all items to Item A accessories, it still should be an hierarchical structure. When we show all these accessories on the Product Details page of Item A, it should be Item B on the top level and then a plain list of all sub items regardless of their parent. The same thing for adding items to proposal. We add the entire chain of accessories, skipping circle references.

  • PW-14452 - Worked on setting up industry catalogs for various industries. Added a field to the sign up flow that asks for industry. This will be used soon to define which catalog categories (and the order) the account sees

  • PW-14454 - When clicking on a product on the suggested item list it will allow you to go to the product page now.

  • PW-14501 - Fixed a bug where if you were on the labor item or custom item product detail page in the catalog and added the item to a proposal, it would add a catalog item to the proposal with the corresponding ID instead of the intended part.

General

  • PW-14413 - Fixed a few Zapier issues. Some zaps were sending duplicate notifications. Also if a proposal name was changed after the proposal was accepted the PDF/CSV (link) that is sent in zaps will still be accessible.

Mobile

  • PW-14436 - Updated the list view of custom & labor items on mobile view to be more similar with the catalog part view.

  • PW-14437 - On mobile view we will now automatically put the cursor in the search box when clicking on the search icon.

  • PW-14438 - Fixed an issue where when you opened the main proposal menu within a proposal on mobile it would load the tooltip for copying the client link automatically, blocking the menu.

Proposal

  • PW-14446 - Fixed an issue where if a parent item is a recurring service and the combined pricing toggle is on, adding the attachment would corrupt the proposal. If the parent item is a recurring service, the pricing will not combine.

  • PW-14471 - Fixed an issue where if you had labor items hidden from a proposal and an area with only labor items in it, the financial summary would exclude the hidden area total. It will still hide the area, but the total will be included in the proposal total.

  • PW-14428 - For the two accepted notification emails (Individual Salesperson notification, and company wide notification) added a series of celebratory gifs to the emails. Both versions of the email notifications have their own series of gifs and will rotate down the lists when notifications are sent out.
