You'll now be notified if someone updates something you're looking at, across all major Loc8 workspaces, be it a quote, job, invoice, asset etc.

If you are looking at a quote for example, and another person (or multiple people, or an external integration) happen to be working on it at the same time, as soon as they make a change you'll be notified in near real time that someone has updated the quote.

To help you manage how and when your workforce can access Loc8, you can now disable users and technicians from the workforce area which effectively prevents them from being able to log in to Loc8 to access data, perform work and so on.

When a user or technician is disabled, all of their data is retained, and they can be re-enabled again at any time.

Continuing the recent focus on migrating legacy Adobe Flash workspaces over to HTML, the invoice workspace has been entirely rebuilt with an all-new interface to bring it inline with the look and feel of the quote, job, and asset workspaces. Beyond the new interface there are also a host of other improvements to make invoicing easier and more useful.

Invoicing will now work independently of a financial integration, which means that you can now create, send and manage invoices standalone in Loc8. This was a highly requested feature, and is a cornerstone improvement for us to be able to deliver a full end to end field service solution for our customers.

Please note that inline with supporting stand-alone invoicing, invoice statuses have changed.

Along with with these changes we have also rolled out two brand new Xero and QuickBooks Online integrations that support the new invoicing functionality and workflows.

Tax support has been added to quotes and jobs in order to support standard business practice for our customers, whilst also enabling a much cleaner flow of financial values between quotes, jobs and invoices.

Along with this, we have also introduced support for multiple tax types with standardised naming and availability of ‘Total tax’, ‘Total including tax’ and ‘Total excluding tax’ fields across the quote, job and invoice workspaces.

Please note that these changes impact the names of fields and columns in workspaces, reports and exports.
