Deactivate Accounts
You can now deactivate/hide accounts!  When viewing an account, if you click the 'Change Account Details' button, it will reveal a *hidden* option/checkbo that shows whether the account is Active or not.  The 'Active' checkbox will be checked and green if the account is active, un-checked and re if the account is inactive.

Un-checking the 'Active' box and saving your changes, will mark the account as inactive and they will no longer appear in the various account search screens -- e.g. Search Accounts, Select Shopper, On-the-Fly Item @ POS, Recently Added, Recently Viewed, etc.

On the Search Accounts screen, you'll see a new 'Active' checkbox that is checked by default (and green when checked).  Un-checking will reveal any accounts that have been set as inactive.

Alert/Notification System for Employes
There is a new Employee Alert System built-in to Peeps!  You can create alerts that employees will see when logging-in to the software.  We always see our customers leaving notes for their employees to do X, Y, Z when they get in in the morning.  We felt having a system storeowners could utilize to build alerts for their employees, was a handy tool to have at their disposal.

You can choose to add all users, remove specific users, or just add specific users.

You can set a date the alert will trigger.

When an employee has seen the alert, you'll receive an email notification letting you know.  :)

Employees can choose to print their alert, as well as view all of their alerts (both Seen and Unseen).

When Changing the Category-Level Tax, Prompt To Change Existing Inventory
We've added a handy feature, that allows for bulk-changing of existing items, from one tax to another.

Categories can be set to a unique Tax, so all items added to said Category receive a specific tax -- e.g. Jeans vs. Earrings.

Sometimes, tax laws/policies change after things have been in place for a while, or maybe you just need to change a specific Category to a new tax.  For whatever reason, now, when changing the Tax on a Category, the software will prompt and ask if you'd like to change the Tax for all *Available* inventory under that Category.  This way, it's not only new inventory going forward that gets the new tax, but all existing items too.  :)

Include Refunds In Primary Sales Report Totals
We've added Refunds to the Primary Sales Report, so you can view these totals in-line without having to go to the Refunds report.

Some notes about this new change:

• If you process a refund, you'll see it in the itemized list of sales.
• You'll see a new 'Refunds' total and 'Refund $' dollar amount total.  These reflect the number of refunds and the total refunded dollars, respectively, for the selected date range.
• The totals such as 'Total Sales Dollars', 'Total Sales', 'Total Payment Dollars', reflect your true, real sales dollars and amounts.  For example, if you had one sale for $45 today, but processed one refund for $45 as well, your 'Total Sales Dollars' would show $45, not $0, because your store truly did do $45 in sales today.  Being able to see the total refund dollars though, allows you to account for this amount that 'went out the door'.
• Refund dollar amounts will appear in light-red, so they stand-out a bit more on the Primary Sales Report.

This was causing by the ORDER BY, or lack thereof, on the tag printing database view.  This was already patched for any stores experiencing this, but the official database view update is officially included in this v2.10 update.  :)

Change 'Search' Functions to Trigger on 'KeyUp' Event, Not 'TextChanged' Events

Subtle, but I noticed if you held down a key on your keyboard -- e.g. 'ggggggggggg' -- the search events 'stacked up' and you had to wait a second while a search for each 'g' was fired.

Moving this to the 'key up' event, prevents any waiting -- I'm sure no one ever even experienced this, but I saw it and I like our software to be snappy and responsive at all times.  :)

Activity Log (Centralized)
While we store nearly every click, view, etc. within a log file, we have added a centralized database log to the software.

This for core, sensitive functions (e.g. deleting accounts), so there's always a log of things that happened.

Accounts with Balances Report
There's a new Accounts with Balances report!  This provides a quick way to see any accounts with open balances, whether they be in the hole (below $0.00) or that you owe money-to.

End-of-Day Summary Shows 'n/a' if Reports Tab Has Not Been Clicked
If 'Use End-of-Day' was enabled (to auto-print reports at the end of the day), if the Reports tab had never been viewed that day, the Summary report would show 'n/a' for all totals.

This has been fixed and was purely my fault @ not pulling the totals directly vs. pulling them only when the Reports tab was loaded.  Since the auto-print at end-of-day was added later on, this was an issue only revealed once auto-print was enabled.  :)

This was reported by Pam @ Worthy Girl!

If There's a CC Processing Error, Provide A Quick Way to 'Get Around' This
When relying on a 3rd party system -- e.g. a credit card processor -- unexpected events can happen.  Something I've seen in all of the consignment programs, is the payment can go through in the real world, but the sale isn't complete in the software, due to an unexpected error or issue -- e.g. Internet drops.

So in Peeps, I've made so if this happens, the software will detect this and allow the sale to complete, without re-trying the credit card payment again.

This should make it so you can't get *stuck* with a payment that's gone through, but no way to complete the sale without temporarily disabling the built-in CC processing.

Reports 'Accounts With Valid Email' & 'Accounts Without Valid Email'
New, simple reports to show both accounts with a valid email, as well as accounts without an email (valid or not).

The software automatically detects invalid emails entered when creating and updating accounts, so in theory, there should never even be an account with an invalid email.  :)

More Account Reports!
We've added a bunch of additional Accounts reports!

• Account History List -- Provides a detailed, itemized report of all entries for account History.  This ties-in with the ability to create custom History Types.
• Account History Summary -- Provides a summary of each History entry on an account.  The 'Sold Item' and 'Refunded' item entries are filtered-out of this report, so you can quickly see totals for History entries such as New Account Fees, or custom History Types you've create.
• Accounts with Balances -- Shows a list of accounts with Balances, whether they be positive balances (you owe them money) or negative balances (they owe the store money).
• Accounts with POS Purchases -- Shows a list of accounts that have shopped in your store, along with their total purchase amount!
• Accounts with Email -- Shows a list of accounts with *valid* email addresses.
• Accounts without Email -- Shows a list of accounts without *valid* email addresses.  While Peeps' Software prevents invalid emails from being entered when an account is created and/or updated, it's still a handy report to have.

Improved Inventory by Account Report
Sorry, but we are just CRUSHING it over here!  :D  We constantly strive to make the software better and this report, is one I looked at and knew could be improved.

Some of the improvements I've added:

• Ability to filter on Price
• Cleaner grouping with faded/gradient bands
• Total Items, Qty. Count, Total Price, Avg. Price, Total Cost, Qty. Cost, Consigned, BOR, Available, Sold, Returned, Donated, and Expired totals in the footer of each account's items
• Expired items show in red for their date + the Expired total shows in red if > 0 Expired items
• 'Bulkier' footer summary at the end of the report, not only visually, but with the addition of Total Available, Total Consigned, Total BOR, and Total Expired

Ability to Set Preferred Reports Tab
It wasn't even on the list for v2.10, but I added the ability to set a preferred Charts tab, so I figured this could come in handy on the main Reports screen as well.  :)

So you can now set your preferred Reports tab -- e.g. Sales, Inventory, Accounts, etc. -- by clicking the Reports icon at the top-left of the screen.

A Simple Expired Items Report
We've added a straight-up, super-simple 'Expired Items' report!  Plain and simple, it shows a list of inventory (grouped by account), that is still Available and beyond the Store Property/Expire date.

You'll see a total number of items, total accounts, total price, etc. at the end of the report.

There's also a corresponding Expired printout within a consignor's account!  Head to the More... tab within a consignor's account to print a list of Expired items.

Option To Both View & Print 'Aged' Account Balances & Inventory
When the 'Show Old Items' and/or 'Show Old Balances' prompts are enabled, you can now choose whether or not you'd also like to view this list of items/accounts, as well as print them out.  :)

One of the biggest issues I see storeowners face, is 'stale' data -- i.e. accounts or items that are well-beyond a reasonable time, but nothing was telling them about it.

So now, not only does Peeps' Software prompt to let you know you have X items over X days old, or balances over X days old, you can now view + print these out.

The goal being, to help store owners run the tightest ship possible and prevent 'stale' data -- which can turn-in to a real chore.

I've updated the Help File to reflect all changes and feature updates through v2.09 & v2.10!

You'll also see a little 'Help' icon (the little, red life preserver icon) at the top of virtually every screen in the software.  This being more-intuitive than hitting F1 on your keyboard.  :)  Which, you can still do on any screen!
