We are excited to announce that Flyntlok will be attending the Equipment Exposition October 17th-20th in Louisville, Kentucky (Booth Number 42024). The Equipment Exposition is an annual event dedicated to growing landscapers, manufacturers, and equipment dealers’ businesses. Please reach out to Mike Wasserman (mwassy@flyntlok.com) or Garret Nelson (garret@flyntlok.com) if you would like to arrange a meeting while we are there.
Opportunity:
Service managers have requested the ability to create and schedule maintenance-related Service Jobs for individual Machines/Assets within their inventory. They would like to create a maintenance schedule based on certain usage metrics (Machine Hours, Machine Distance, Machine Age).
Solution:
We have added a "Maintenance Schedule" to the Machine Dashboard page, allowing users to create and edit existing maintenance schedules for individual Machines. To create a new Machine Maintenance Schedule, navigate to the specific Machine's Dashboard and select "Maintenance Schedule" from the Action button drop-down menu. You will then be redirected to the "Maintenance Schedule" page with the Machine's information prepopulated.
From here, you can select the "+ New Schedule" button, where you can choose a previously created Model Template or create a new schedule. Users will also have the option to have the schedule repeated and set the next interval according to the Machine’s current hours, distance, or age.
Interval and repetition are editable using the 
icons
You can change the status, edit schedule details, or delete the schedule by selecting the task from the "Actions" button drop-down menu.
You can add recipients to receive notifications of an upcoming schedule through the notifications section. Users will be able to select either a group of users or a single user to receive the notification and also to specify when the notification is delivered.
We have added a "Configure Model Template" button to the Model's edit page, which will allow Users the option to create templated service schedules that can then be applied to Machines of that Model.
Once the model template is created, you will be able to apply the template to Machines by selecting the option from the "Action" button drop-down menu. Flyntlok will then display a list of all Machines of that Model, giving users the ability to apply the template to all Machines or selected individual Machines.
We have also added an "Upcoming Maintenance" report to the Machines Tab of the Left-Hand Navigation Menu, which will display a list of upcoming scheduled maintenance jobs. This report will provide information on the Machine and upcoming service as well as links to the Machine's Dashboard and the Machine's Service Schedule Page. Users can sort and filter the report based on the priority or the next due metric. Flyntlok will color code the row based on the priority (see priority rules below).
The overall priority of a schedule is calculated based on individual priorities according to hours, distance, and age. Flyntlok's priority rules are as follows:
Days Remaining -
High: 15<=
Medium: <=45
Low: >45
Distance -
High: <=100
Medium: <=350
Low: > 350
Hours -
High: <=40
Medium: <=120
Low: >120
Conclusion: So, yeah, this is a pretty big (and pretty cool) addition to Flyntlok. If you need help with this functionality, or if you have questions, please reach out to us!
Opportunity:
Rental managers have requested the ability to put an unavailable Model or Classification on a Rental Contract in a "Waiting List" status and have the option to convert the contract to an Active status and notify the customer when the equipment becomes available.
Solution:
We have added a "Waitlist Contract" check box to the Details section of the Rental Contract's creation page that will put the contract into a "Waitlist" status. Once a Machine matching the Model or Classification becomes available, contracts will need to be converted to a Draft status before equipment can be associated with the Model or Classification holding spot. Waitlist contracts can be converted to a "Draft" by selecting it from the "Actions" button in the top right corner.
If the User is set up to receive notifications and is also set as the Salesperson of the Waitlisted contract, Flyntlok will send a notification when a waitlisted contract is able to be fulfilled. To edit your notification preferences, first select your "User Name" from the top right corner of your screen, then select "Preferences" from the dropdown menu.
We have also added a new "Waitlisted Contracts" report to the Rental Tab of the Left-Hand Navigation Menu, which will display a list of all waitlisted contracts and their customer contact information. For contracts with multiple Machines, Flyntlok will display a record for each machine that is available.
Opportunity:
Salespeople using the new Gravity Payments system have requested the ability to use an existing address under a customer's profile for the billing address when adding a Text-2-Pay payment method to a Sales Order. Currently, Flyntlok is not auto-filling Customer information into the Text2Pay billing address field, even if the address is saved within the Customer's Dashboard.
Solution:
Flyntlok will now auto-fill the "Card Billing Address" field of the Text2Pay payment method of the new Gravity Payments system if the information is available from the Customer's Dashboard.
We have also added a new "Save to Customers Dashboard" check box to the Text2Pay module, allowing Users to save new billing addresses for Customers who previously did not have this information.
Opportunity:
Salespeople would like to see a notification on the Sales Order and Work Order pages when adding a Customer who has exceeded their credit limit.
Solution:
We have added a flashing notification to the Customer Dashboard, Invoice page, and Work Order Dashboard to warn users that the customer is over their credit limit. Administrators can activate this new setting by navigating to the Flyntlok settings page (Admin Editors Wrench->Flyntlok->Flyntlok Settings->Sales)
Opportunity:
Our SMS messaging service does not allow for sending PDF file types. Salespeople have requested a way to view what types of files they are able to send via SMS messaging.
Solution:
We have added a new 
icon to all SMS messaging modules that, when selected, will display a list of supported files.
Opportunity:
Flyntlok Users were experiencing an issue where they were unable to remove a "Superseded By" part from an Items Dashboard.
Solution:
Supersessions from the Vendor Price File are intentionally not editable. To avoid confusion in the future, we have updated the Supersessions field of the Item Dashboard. If the item is from the Vendor, the item(s) will now be displayed below the selected input, and Flyntlok will display a "Superseded by (From Vendor)" message along with the supersessions.
Complaint:
When trying to apply payment to a Sales Order via credit card, the option to use Saved Cards isn't there. This issue only affected users of the older payment system, not those who upgraded to the Emergepay system.
Cause/Correction:
Fixed.
Complaint:
Salespeople reported having issues with not being able to do force refresh on invoices.
Cause/Correction:
Fixed.
Complaint:
Flyntlok Purchasers were running into an issue when applying a percentage discount to a machine currently on a Purchase Order. After applying the discount and attempting to print the PO, the discount was not applied to the printed copy.
Cause/Correction:
Fixed. Flyntlok will apply any discount set on the machine and display it properly on the printed copy of the PO.
Complaint:
Users had an issue uploading (WAV) audio files; in this scenario, the user would receive an error message, and the file was not uploaded.
Cause/Correction:
We have removed the restriction for uploading WAV audio files. While you will now be able to upload WAV audio files into Flyntlok, please note these are uncompressed files that may hit our filesize restriction of 30MB.
Did you read all the way down to the bottom? Nice! This was a pretty big release week for Flyntlok. Hope you appreciate all the new features!!!

Opportunity:
Rental Managers have requested the ability to reserve a Model or Model Classification for a Rental Contract and also have the ability to convert the Model/Class to an actual Machine at a later date.
Solution:
We have added Machine Models and Machine Classifications as selectable options to add to a Rental Contract on the rental creation page or the active rental. When a model/class is selected, that model or class is temporarily added to the contract that users can later change to a specific Machine.
Users will be able to specify an actual Machine to the Model/Class holding spot by selecting the "Associate Machine" button on the individual lines of the Contract. Flyntlok will then display a list of all Machines of that particular Class/Model for the user to choose from.
Users will have the option to generate Interim Invoices for Rental Contracts with reserved Models. When the Model is later replaced with an actual Machine on the Rental Contract, Flyntlok will then display an "Associate Machine To Invoice" dialog. Flyntlok will then suggest line items from the Invoice that the Machine could be associated with. Associating the Machine to the Invoice allows for its monetary value to be applied to the income statement of the Machine.
If the Contract and Invoice have a duplicate of the same Model (e.g. two lines in the invoice have the same model), users will have the option to choose which line item to associate the Machine with by clicking the Edit button.
Opportunity:
Rental managers have requested the ability to convert an active Rental Contract to a “Demo Contract”. Converting a Rental Contract into a Demo Contract allows for the associated Machine(s) to be released on a trial basis. Demo Contracts will block the depreciation of the Machines and eliminate the need to report the Machine(s) as FID to the manufacturer. Flyntlok gave users the option to generate a Rental Contract or a Demo Contract from the rental creation page, but did not allow active contracts to be converted to a "Demo".
Solution:
We have added the "Is Demo" field to the General section of the Rental Contracts "Info Tab" allowing users to convert active Rental Contracts to Demo Contracts.
Opportunity:
Flyntlok users have requested additional information be added to the Rental Contracts Audit Log to make it more evident what Machines or Items have been added or removed from the contract.
Solution:
We have updated the Rental Contracts Audit Log to now display the ID Number of Items, Models, and Machines that have been added or removed from the contract.
Opportunity:
Purchasing Managers working with Honda equipment have requested the ability to generate Item Purchase Order documents for Honda directly from Flyntlok which they can then upload to the Honda Portal.
Solution:
We have added a "Generate Document For Honda" link to the Actions button drop-down menu of the Item Purchase Order which, when selected, will automatically download an interface document onto your computer. Once downloaded you can upload the document to the Honda Portal as a Purchase Order.
Opportunity:
Flyntlok users have requested Item Alternate information be added to the individual line items of the Draft Purchase Order Page, allowing purchasers to more easily see whether an individual item has any alternates. Alternates are Items that can be purchased instead of the original item, as a substitute.
Solution:
We have added an "Alternates" icon to the Draft Purchase Order Page, which will populate to the left of the Item Number if the item has any Alternate Item associated. We have also introduced a new tab titled “Alternate Items” on the "Inventory and Order History" section of an Item, which is visible when an individual item row is expanded. Flyntlok will display a list of available alternates for the given Item in this new section and display a “No Alternates” message if no alternates exist.
Opportunity:
Last release, we added a mileage log capability on Flyntlok. Our next iteration was to add an "Hour History" section to the Machine Dashboard. This will display all Work Order and Rental Contract check-in hour logs as well as any direct edits to the Hours field of the Machines edit page.
Solution:
We have combined the Machine Hours with the Mileage logs and renamed the section "Meter History". This section will display ALL mileage and hour log entries for the specific piece of equipment via the following pages: WO creation and WO check-ins; on Rental Contracts as well as on Check-in/out of the rental; and on changes to the Machine Dashboard edit page. This new section will display the ten most recent entries as well as a link that will redirect users to an alternate view that will display ALL mileage/hour logs for that specific Machine. Flyntlok will display the date, the metric, and the user's name that performed the logging.
Opportunity:
Flyntlok Users have requested a way to easily see if a specific Customer is properly set up with contact marketing information.
Solution:
We have added a new indicator titled "Has Contact" to the Customer's Dashboard, which will display a green check icon if the particular Customer has one or more contacts with Contact name, phone number, and email information saved. This new field will be added to the top bar of the Customers Dashboard next to the "Last Survey Send" field.
Opportunity:
Accounting Managers have recently inquired about where they can create new items as a Service in QuickBooks Online. Creating an item as a Service in QuickBooks allows Users to set a revenue account for the item to book to within QB. Currently, Flyntlok provides a link to add a new Service in QB from the Accounting section of the Item Dashboard's edit page, but does not clearly define what the link does.
Solution:
We have updated the styling of the "Add Service to QuickBooks Online" link on the Item Dashboards edit page and also added descriptive text.
Complaint:
Salespeople have requested to have the logging of the status change "New to New" be removed from the Lead Dashboards Audit Log. Flyntlok gives users the option to edit information surrounding the Lead from the individual Leads Dashboard, such as the status, estimated revenue, contact information, and more. Currently updating any status of a Lead ( for example updating a lead status from "Open" to "Won") creates a log stating "Status changed from NEW to NEW" and then also states the correct status change.
Cause/Correction:
We have removed the logging for the status change (New to New).
Complaint:
Sales Managers had noticed the red "Paid" stamp, usually displayed on a Sales Order invoice that has been paid in full and moved to a Delivered status and has been processed in QBO, is no longer being displayed.
Cause/Correction:
Fixed.
Complaint:
Salespeople were experiencing issues when attempting to document a lost Machine Sale by selecting the 
icon of the item line from the Point of Sale. The "sad face" icon allows Users to generate a "Lost Sale" form for the Item or Machine of the line selected. Flyntlok will then generate the "Lost Sale Form" with the Item or Machine information and "Loss Type" prepopulated, in this scenario the generated "Lost Sale Form" form was incorrectly set as an Item and was not populating any Machine information onto the form.
Cause/Correction:
Fixed. Flyntlok will identify the Item or Machine associated with the specific Point of Sale line item and generate the Lost Sale Form with the correct "Loss Type" and Machine or Item information prepopulated onto the form.
Complaint:
Purchasing managers were experiencing an issue where Stock Items' recommended quantities were not successfully updated when users created a new Stock Purchase Order using the Flyntlok recommended quantity, and marked the PO as Ordered, but then deleted the PO. The recommended quantity was not being updated on the Recommended Orders Report or the Draft Purchase Order page.
Cause/Correction:
This was caused by a timing issue based on when Flyntlok updated recommended quantities (which is done in a nightly batch job). We have updated the metrics for inventory items, and we will now immediately update the recommended quantity when a PO with stock items is deleted.
Complaint:
Flyntlok Users were experiencing an issue when trying to submit a Support Ticket when the description field exceeded 4,000 characters. The user would receive a generic error message and the ticket was not submitted.
Cause/Correction:
We have updated the error message displayed when the character limit is reached, and will now notify the User of the specific issue at hand and prompt users to shorten the description to 4,000 characters or less. (And, um, if the issue is that difficult to describe, you can always pick up the phone and call us for help. That’s what we’re here for!)

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.

We have added additional information when searching for items that have alternates. You will now see a supersedes section with the QOH displayed.
When taking a credit card payment from the new Gravity payment system, the previously selected terminal will now default into the field.
When creating a new customer, from the Point of Sale, Flyntlok will now accept email addresses in an all-caps format.
We have added the equipment hours logged on check-in/check-outs to the rental invoice. Previously, you would have to print out the rental lease agreement in addition to the invoice, to show this information to customers.
From the Point of Sale, when associating a machine with a quoted model, Flyntlok will now display the model number in the description of the item line.
We have made an adjustment to the tax rate settings. Tax rates can now be extended out up to 8 decimal places. Flyntlok will only display the tax rate’s significant digits in tax line descriptions.
Administrators will now have the option to hide the Invoice ID number on the Purchase Orders PDF. Wrench->Flyntlok->Flyntlok Settings.
-Please reach out to the Flyntlok support team to opt-in to this new setting.
We have removed stock items from the list displayed when selecting will-call labels, from the receiving voucher. From the item Purchase Order with stock and will-call items, you will now only see the will-call labels.

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 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.
Purchase OrdersWe 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.

You will now be able to accept a single payment to cover the cost of several different Sales Orders for a customer. This will help streamline the experience for collecting payments as well as saving your business transaction fees. To pay off outstanding Sales Orders you will want to navigate to the customer's dashboard. In the customer information section, you will see a new field titled, outstanding Sales Orders. This new field will display the number of orders still requiring full payment. You can then select the (pay icon) to review and select from a list of outstanding orders to pay off.
A list of outstanding Sales Orders will then display on your screen. From this list, you can review the date, status, and outstanding balance. You can then choose which order(s) to pay off.

We have added a new item type, titled (KIT). This new item type will give you the ability to sell a group of parts at a set list price.
To set up a kit, you will first need to create a new item. This new item will be the placeholder for the kit items. When creating the kit item you will also be able to associate different items from your inventory to the kit and set a list price on the kit item. When you add the new kit item to a transaction all associated parts will also populate on the transaction but Flyntlok will only set the list price on the kit.
We have added a new section to the machine receiving vouchers for associating a machine with a quoted model.

From the Jobs Tab of the Work Order dashboard, you will see a new option in the Actions dropdown titled Process Jobs. When clicked, you will see a list of your jobs, allowing you to select and process the part orders associated with the jobs.
When the process button is selected, Flyntlok will move the internal parts orders tied to the selected job(s) forward from a Quote or Draft status into a Pending or Pickup status.
When a technician clocks out of a job, Flyntlok requires them to log a note. You will now be able to view this note from the corresponding labor punch.

This information will immediately populate the machine's balance sheet, viewable from the machine's dashboard.
We have added the Machine Miles and Hours categories to the column chooser of the Machine Receiving Voucher.
