System Update - October 2019 - Discover the latest updates to My Gadget Repairs

As always, our team’s core focus is to deliver a seamless experience for our users. We have been busy working on product improvements over the past month and wanted to share a few highlights.

Settings:

• Ticket Custom Fields
  • Delete data after "Resolved/Pickedup"
    • We have added an option to delete sensitive data like pin, passwords etc after the repair has been completed, gives your customer a reassurance that you are not holding any of their sensitive information.
  • Linked Customer Custom Field
    • You can now associate any ticket custom fields with customers custom fields, this gives you good control over data validity. When you select a customer on the ticket interface we will show the data based on the selected customer. Let's say when you create a customer you collect a list of models used by this customer, you can create the same field in the ticket as well and link both together.
    • Once linked when you select customer we will only show the data which you added when the customer was created.
  • Assign tickets to technicians in the Repair Centre
    • Previously you could only assign the ticket to the technicians within the same branch, we have made some changes and now you can assign the tickets to any technicians in the repair centre (which is a different branch)
• All Custom Fields
  • We have added an option called "Collapse Custom Fields" so you can collapse all of your custom fields while moving/organising them which makes it much easier.
• Franchise Account
  • Copy/Sync Shop Settings
    • The f​​​​ollowing data will also be synced when you copy shop settings from one shop to another shop.
      • Delete data after "Resolved/Pickedup"
      • Linked Customer Custom Field

• Ticket Preset Wizard - Kiosk mode

Products:

• On-Order Quantity from Purchase Order
  • We now display "On-Order" quantity next to stock quantity so it's easy for you to see what has been ordered via the POs. Please note that as soon as the item is flagged as received from the PO system it will not show here so please make sure that you allocate it to the correct shop via the PO interface.
  • We are also using this concept when we calculate low stock, ordered quantity automatically gets added to the available stock.
