Flyntlok encountered a problem during an upgrade on Monday afternoon, June 19th, around 1 pm Eastern Time, which temporarily disrupted the searching function intermittently for some periods thereafter. Performance and reliability are extremely important to us and we would like to apologize for any inconvenience this caused you. Our development team has introduced a new search infrastructure and added additional preventative measures. We will work hard to ensure such instances are not repeated and continue to provide the best service possible.
Opportunity:
Flyntlok allows users to create and save contact information for customers . You can save contact information from the customer's dashboard, the point of sale, or the CRM Hub. The issue is that there is currently no centralized place to view and edit a list of all contacts. This makes it challenging to manage contacts on a company level.
Solution:
The Flyntlok team is currently in the process of a significant update to our general Contact Management Capabilities. This release we created a new view that contains a list of all of a company’s contacts. From this new report you can filter for the individual contact and, when selected, you can edit the contact: Name, linked customer, email address, phone number, and associated tags. Flyntlok users will now be able to access the "Customer Contacts" from the CRM tab of the left-hand navigation menu.
Opportunity:
Salespeople like to be able to easily communicate with their contacts from the list of all company contacts, but Flyntlok did not offer that capability
Solution:
When Flyntlok users select a specific contact from the contacts report, they will be redirected to the contacts information page. From here users can view past SMS messages and continue the correspondence. If a previously saved, valid phone number is added to the contact, any conversations with that phone number will be available to view.
Opportunity:
Sales managers often like to see a history of all interactions with a specific contact:
Solution:
Add a "History" tab to the contact's information page. On the Contact Information page for a specific contact, the History Tab will allow users to view a timeline of customer interactions. All Work Orders, Sales Orders, Rental contracts, and CRM leads created, and associated with the contact will be recorded on this timeline. Users will be able to manage the timeline by archiving individual events, Archived events will be removed from the default timeline and placed into a separate view.
Opportunity:
When associating a machine with a new lead from CRM Hub, the associated machine's information is not displayed on the lead page.
Solution:
For associated machines: include serial, machine number, owner name, and the current status of machines.
Opportunity:
The new lead system of the updated CRM Hub offers a more efficient way to manage new potential sales. However, we have noticed there is no convenient way to quickly navigate to and from an individual lead page back to the All Leads report
Solution:
Add a link to the lead page that will redirect you back to the All Leads report. This new link will be displayed above the lead name in the top left corner of the page.
Opportunity:
Flyntlok offers users the option to generate a packing slip, from the Point of Sale, which will display the package's contents, delivery address, and customer name making it easy to identify during dispatch. The issue is there is currently no acceptance line on the packing slip.
Solution:
Add a signature line to the packing slip PDF.
Opportunity:
The Item Type of “Note Items” are used to display information on an Invoice. When added to a Sales Order, the rate/amount set on the note item is not applied to what is debited to a pending payments accounts. Currently, if the list price of a note item is manually adjusted, this would result in the transaction being unreconciled in QuickBooks Online. The amount applied to Pending Payments needs to be the same as the Invoice Balance.
Solution:
Flyntlok added a restriction that will prevent Flyntlok users from editing the list price on invoice lines with Item Types that indicate the item is a note.
Opportunity:
At the bottom of the PDF, generated from the Point of Sale, is a section to record the buyer's acceptance with a signature line. The issue is Flyntlok currently does not offer a field to record a seller's acceptance. This can be problematic when dealing with a third-party service that requires both a buyer's and seller's acceptance signature.
Solution:
Flyntlok added a new setting to the Settings page that will allow Flyntlok administrators to add a seller's acceptance signature line to the PDF generated from the Point of Sale. Please contact a Flyntlok Consultant if you would like assistance in setting up this feature.
Opportunity:
When converting a Sales Order to a quote, Flyntlok requires users to set an expiration date for the new quote. This date is then displayed on the PDF generated for the quote. The issue is that Flyntlok currently does not show the expiration date anywhere on the actual Point of Sale page.
Solution:
Add a "Valid Until" field to the internal details section of the detail tab.
Opportunity:
The payment system currently displays the customer information as well as the date a credit card payment was applied to a Sales Order. However, the date is only applied to credit card payments
Solution:
Flyntlok now includes the payment date on all payment description lines.
Opportunity:
Kit items allow Flyntlok users to sell a group of items at a customized list price under a parent item. When the Kit is configured, Flyntlok will take the cost of the sub-items associated with the kit and apply them to the parent item. The issue is if the parent item is sold with a cost set, Flyntlok applies both the cost set on the parent item and the sub-items resulting in transactions being unreconcilable in QuickBooks.
Solution:
Flyntlok removed the ability to set a cost on Kit type items and we now show an expected cost on the kit item dashboard.
Opportunity:
Salespeople find it helpful to see the available inventory for kit items, which Flyntlok does not currently offer.
Solution:
On the item dashboard Flyntlok now shows the potential kit QOH based on the quantities of the sub-items
Opportunity:
When configuring kits, Flyntlok users would like to view the cost of all of the items making up the kit. This would assist in specifying a new price for the kit and to prevent losing money on kit sales.
Solution:
Added a total cost field, that will display the cost of sub-items added to the kit.
Opportunity:
When configuring Quick Kits from the Point of Sale, Flyntlok users would like to view the cost of all of the items making up the kit. This would assist in specifying a new price for the kit and to prevent losing money on kit sales. Currently, only the cost margin is displayed.
Solution:
We have updated the Point of Sale Quick Kit feature. The "cost margin" field has been renamed to "Profit" and we have added a new "Show Cost" check box. When selected, the total cost of all associated sub-items will be displayed.
Opportunity:
Flyntlok users are looking to clarify the "PO Number" column of the Purchase Order's PDF. Vendors are currently getting this field mixed up with the Purchase Order number.
Solution:
We have renamed the column, and will now display it as "Customer PO Number"
Opportunity:
Flyntlok users have the option to transfer service jobs. You can choose to transfer the job to an active Work Order or generate a new Work Order. The issue here is when the option to transfer to a new or existing order is selected, the logs of the transfer will only appear on the original Work Order.
Solution:
We have added enhanced logging on job transfers. Action logs will now refer to both Work Order IDs involved in the job transfer and the log will appear on both Work Orders' action logs.
Opportunity:
Flyntlok offers users a variety of different reports, accessable through the left-hand navigation menu. We aim to provide you with valuable insights and data through these reports. The issue is that there is currently no way to compress larger reports.
Solution:
We have added a new "Compact" button to Flyntlok Reports that will allow users to compress the grid view’s data within the report.
User issue:
The machine's dashboard is correctly showing the status as RESERVED however it is not indicating the active rental reservation at the top of the page.

User Issue-

The Flyntlok development team is starting to roll out the new CRM Hub. The updated CRM will retain all of the functionality of the existing CRM hub with added enhancements we believe: will help to increase leads, accelerate sales, organize contacts, and better serve your customers!
Note- We will be releasing a tutorial video on the new CRM Hub in the coming days, please reach out to the Flyntlok support team if you have any questions.
Flyntlok allows users to track shipments but currently does not offer a way to search for tracking numbers associated with a particular sale. Users can track a shipment by clicking on the "Track" button at the top of the Shipping Tab. A separate page will appear asking for the Tracking Number along with the Carrier. Tracking information will be generated in the shipping tab of the Sale Order and will include the tracking number, as well as its shipping status, last update, currently in, destination, created, and ETA. You can not search for tracking numbers unless the number had been copied/pasted into the internal/public message fields of the Sale.
You will now be able to search for tracking numbers associated with a Sales Order using the S? prefix from the Flyntlok searcher.
We have had several requests to allow salespersons to manually pick the order functionality of a Sales Order. This would give you the option to take all items associated with a specific sale out of your inventory regardless of on-hand quantity. This could be helpful in the case that an item has been physically received but the parts department has not yet had the chance to record the receive in Flyntlok. Currently, Flyntlok users have no option to manually pick the order functionality of a Sales Order.
Note- This feature if enabled may disrupt your inventory totals. This feature is setting controlled, please reach out to the Flyntlok support team if you would like this setup, or if you need any additional information.
We added a new icon to the quantity column of the Sales Orders item line. When the force pick option is selected, Flyntlok will pull the entire order quantity from your inventory. This will allow for sales to push inventory into negative quantities.
We have also had requests to allow a salesperson to manually set a Sales Order to order all items associated with a specific sale regardless of on-hand quantity. This will give Flyntlok users the option to special order entire order quantities.
We have added a new icon to the quantity column of the Sales Orders item line. When the force order option is selected, Flyntlok will special order the entire order quantity, leaving your inventory intact.
You can add a fee or a credit to a machine voucher in the Fees/Credits section by clicking . You can then choose to book the fee, to an account of your choosing or to capitalize to the machine. If you are going to capitalize the fee click
then choose an allocation method and save your choices. The problem is once the voucher is closed, the fees and credits section is also closed. You would then have to go to each machine separately to see how it was allocated.
We have updated the fees and credits section of the machine receiving voucher. The section will now be viewable but not editable after the voucher is complete.
On a Sales Order for a customer with a PO number: If the items associated with this sale are needing to be special ordered, the customer's PO number is not displayed on any PDF generated from the Purchase Order. This can be especially problematic when dealing with dropship orders.
We have added the customer PO number to the item line of the PDFs generated from the Purchase Order.
On the machine dashboard page, Flyntlok users can navigate to the owned machines section to view a list of all machines owned by a particular customer. The issue here is Flyntlok currently does not offer a way to export the list.
We have added a "View All" link to the owned machines section of the customer dashboard. When selected, this link will take you to a data view that shows all of the customer’s machines. From this page, you can then click the export icon in the upper right corner of the page.
New Flyntlok setting to hide the sub-items list price on PDF documents for kits has been enabled, but the list price is showing on invoices that have been split.
If you have activated the Flyntlok setting to hide kit sub-items, this will now also apply to all split invoices with kit items associated.
When editing a model, by changing the "allow sale" field to NO and selecting the save and update machines option: The model is still available to add to sales Orders from the Rocketship icon model searcher.
After editing a model to not allow the sale, the model will be excluded from the Rocketship model searcher.
When adding a machine to a Sales Order, and then fulfilling the order quantity, the machine was not able to be marked as unfulfilled.
After adding a machine to a Sales Order, and marking the machine as fulfilled, you will still be able to adjust the fulfilled quantity and set as unfulfilled.
When scheduling a start/end date for a job on a work order, the date will revert to the previous day whenever a time isn't selected.
Fixed.
On a new Sales Order: When trying to apply a discount to the entire order, if the option to discount "above cost" is selected, the discount is not applied to the sale.
Fixed.
When communicating with a customer or lead through SMS messaging, and trying to send a PDF document. The text message is not delivered.
Our wireless carrier does not support PDF file types sent via text messaging. We have added a new error message to the SMS settings that will display when trying to send a PDF document.
When creating a new rental contract and searching for a reserved machine: Machines that have been reserved, with a hold-for-rent reservation type, are not populating onto the contract.
Machines reserved for rent will still populate the machine list of a new rental contract, but will be displayed as "has conflict".
When trying to close and invoice a rental contract that contains an inactive item, the contract does not close and an error message pops up stating "The action could not be completed, no item data"
We have updated the information on the error message, and will now indicate if there is a inactive item associated with the rental contact.

This integration will provide seamless payment processing, modern card devices, the ability to collect signatures via card devices, and an overall better payment experience. Please reach out to the Flyntlok support team if you would like to start the migration process or if you need any additional information!
We recently added a new feature allowing you to sell a group of parts as a kit, with a customized list price. You will now be able to create and add Quick Kits to a Sales Order on a per-order basis. The quick kit will serve as a one-time-only deal and not be saved in Flyntlok.
We have added a new feature, allowing users to hide kit items on a Sales Order PDF. This will allow you to print out receipts and invoices where the kit’s subitems are not presented, only showing the parent item and the customized list price.
Administrators will be able to activate this feature by navigating to the Flyntlok Settings page. Wrench->Flyntlok->Flyntlok Settings->Reports
We have also added a feature to remove tax detail lines from the Sale Order PDF. If activated, Sale Order tax lines will be removed from the PDF document, only showing in the balance sheet. To activate this feature you will navigate to the Flyntlok Settings page.
You will now be able to edit the salesperson associated with a particular sale even if the transaction is in a delivered status. Previously you could only make edits to this field when in an active status.
We have added a new restriction to the Point of Sale when special ordering items. Flyntlok will now block the workflow of converting a Sale Order into a quote if the sale is associated with a Purchase Order.
We have added a new permission to the Access Controls page that will lock down the ability to activate/deactivate items. Wrench->Users->Acess Controls
If you are subscribed to receive notifications on transfer requests, you will now see the items description as well as a link to the items dashboard in the notification. This will help to quickly identify and pull the parts needed for the transfer.
From the receiving voucher when associating a machine to a quoted model on a Sales Order, the machine's serial number, and description will be added to the Sales Orders machine line.
We have removed a restriction, that would block you from adding parts to a Purchase Order in a partially received status. Flyntlok will only restrict this action when all items have been received or the PO is closed. Previously, you would need to create a new PO for the vendor and merge the two Purchase Orders.
If you are currently using the moves system, you will now be able to access the My Trips report from the general section of the mobile view. This will allow drivers to quickly view upcoming moves from their mobile device.

Note: This does not affect any 3rd party systems for integrated ordering.

Updated user permissions now allows admins to limit users ability to make changes on the Service scheduler such as changing events, and modifying groups.
Flyntlok settings allow admins to adjust cutoff dates for transactions. This helps prevent unwanted reversals of invoices that have been posted during accounting periods already closed, as well as, backdating transactions into closed period. This should align with your QuickBooks Online Books Closed Date.

Flyntlok will now calculate average lead time by location and display on the items dashboard. This will give the individual purchasing parts an idea of how long it took for parts to arrive. Lead time is calculated by taking the average duration between date ordered and date fully received.
In the contact cell, in the customer information section, of the customer dashboard we have added a field to classify customer contacts. You can now indicate which contact is the primary for that customer, as well as any additional Tags that belong to that Contact.
Add or edit this field from the customer dashboard select the Actions Button -> Contacts.
You can now create a customer on a new reservation. That customer will be immediately selected on the create reservation form.
Customers can be automatically marked as a problem customer when they exceed their credit limit. To enable this feature, click the Wrench -> Flyntlok -> Flyntlok Details-> Sales Section.
There were a few dead ends that sales orders and purchase orders would end up in, if we attempted to post them and there were no lines that needed to be generated. Reversing these would fail and always require Flyntlok assistance. You will now be able to reverse these documents.
We have added a “Terms” selector to the existing “Create QuickBooks Online Customer” form.
When printing an invoice in Flyntlok that has been marked as paid in QBO, we will now show the Balance Due as $0.
