1. Show the total number of hours for all the master schedules created on the Master Schedule window.
User(s) will have the ability to see the total hours on the master schedule screen. These total hour(s) will be the sum of the totals of all the plans listed on this screen.
2. Sending auto notification on new invoice creation to multiple recipients.
The system will now allow user(s) to send notifications on new invoice creation to multiple recipients based on the selection done under office settings -> Billing tab -> Send Auto-Notification on new Invoice creation.
Previously there was a checkbox for the agency to decide if they wish to send an invoice to a payer. From now onward, instead of a checkbox, a drop-down will be shown, along with the ability to multi-select for the following recipient(s)
Client
Payer
Emergency Contact
3. Assigning caregiver as Primary on the assessment tab for any client in the State of TEXAS.
For agencies operating in the state of Texas, the system will allow user(s) to assign a primary caregiver on the Assessment -> Facesheet tab.
The list of Active caregiver(s) will be shown in the dropdown from where the selection will be made.
4. Ability to Set default service type under client's profile.
A new field is introduced under the Client's profile -> Main tab titled "Default Service Type."
User(s) will have the ability to select the default service type that would then be carried forward at the time of creating the schedule for that particular client. The value for service type would appear as selected under the service type drop-down on the create schedule window.
5. New column "Finalized On" is added on the Drafted Payroll & Invoice screens.
User(s) will now be able to see one more column on the View/Drafted Invoice screen, labeled as " Finalized On" and also on the View/Drafted Payroll screen so that they can review when the invoice or payroll batch was finalized.
6. Ability to void Invoices in QBO & QBD that are voided in the CS360 system.
User(s) will have the ability to void an existing invoice in CS360 which has been already sync'd in QBO/QBD, and the system will automatically void it in QuickBooks as well.
Use cases as an example:
If an invoice is synced to QBO, and the user voids the invoice in the CS360 system, it will be voided in QBO automatically.
If an invoice that is synced (or in the queue) to QBD is voided in the CS360 system, a request will be added in the Web connector (like sync). The user needs to execute the Web Connector to complete the void process in QBD.
If an invoice is not synced (not even in the queue) to QBD and the invoice is voided in the CS360 system, then it will have no effect on QBD (as nothing is synced).
If a user syncs a voided invoice to QBD (invoices that are not synced previously), then two requests will be added to Web Connector (Invoice sync + Invoice Void). Once the Web Connector is executed invoice will be synced and voided in QBD.
Note: If the agency voids an invoice in QuickBooks directly, QuickBooks updates the amount and quantity to ZERO but that has no effect in CS360 because the operation has been completed in QuickBooks.
7. Ability to create a backdated task(s)
On the Task/Communication screen, the system will allow the user(s) to create a back-dated task(s). No reminder(s) will be sent out for backdated tasks.
