      Release Notes for LOU58

      Release Date: August 15 2023

      Are we releasing Pumpkin Spice LOU yet…?

      New Features
       

      • LOU Accounting – Expense Void Dates: When voiding an Expense, you can choose any date from the original Post Date forward as your Void Date.
      • Extended SKU Description: In addition to the standard Description field there is now an Extended Text field on the SKU Profile that allows you to create lengthy SKU Descriptions that can be configured to appear on Estimates, Orders, Invoices, and Packing Slips. TIP! For terms and conditions, warranty, maintenance, and other non-description information, LOU’s Terms and Conditions will still be the best place to add that information.
        • Rich Text Formatting: For both the new Extended Text and Terms and Conditions, rich text (bold/italics/highlights/font color) will be respected.
      • LOU Accounting – Debits and Credits Columns on Reports: For the Trial Balance report, the Amounts will be split up between Debits and Credits instead of positive and negative numbers in a single Column.



      Feature Changes and Enhancements
       

      • LOU Accounting – Pay Bills: The Totals Amounts are lined up with the appropriate columns.
      • LOU Accounting – Complete Expense and Bank Deposits: Financial Postings links now appear on the profiles for Completed Expenses and Bank Deposits.
