Bug fixes

VGM

  • Bug: Temp Parts tab order inconsistent
    Fix: Change the tab indexes so that hitting the tab key cycles through controls incrementally.
  • Bug: Vehicle Registration missing from planner appointments
    Fix: Added vehicle details to Bookings and vehicle registration to Jobsheets in the Planner.
  • Bug: Cannot send sms through Jobsheets in the Planner
    Fix: The customer mobile number was not being loaded causing the option to be greyed out. This has been corrected so sms can now be sent.

When in sales documents, there is now an 'Event Log' tab that shows the history of a document, this includes print and email correspondence.
