New Features - Build 1
 1. SugarCRM version 11.2 is now supported! [Service Release: 1.03]

 2. GoldMine 2021.2 is now supported! [Service Release: 1.03]

 3. QuickBooks Desktop USA version 2022 is now supported! [Service Release: 1.03]

 4. Management Reports capabilities have been greatly expanded. In addition to reporting on the Documents and Product Databases, you can now create reports on Purchase Orders (purchasing), Payments, Contacts, Vendors, Bundles, Configurations, Required Items, and Optional Items. For the Purchasing reports, you can create a report that includes and links the POHeaders, POItems, FulfillmentItems, DocumentHeaders, and DocumentItems all together resulting in very powerful reporting! The Payments table is auto-joined with the DocumentHeaders table. All Management Reports have the ability to Export the report data to text file output, so now all this data can be easily exported and then imported into any other system. [Service Release: 1.03]

 5. New VendorRFQ product release, including integration with QuoteWerks. VendorRFQ enables customers to communicate with their vendors, discussing and negotiating pricing and details for goods and services, collecting and organizing this information from one or all of their vendors. Your purchasing team will be able to compare and find the lowest prices to purchase available specific goods and services, while knowing at any given time which vendors have received the request for quote, and which have responded. All purchasing and procurement information is available in a centralized location for your team. Under the Utilities->Vendor maintenance menu you will want to setup your vendors, and make sure to enter your account number, the vendor sales rep name, email address, and phone. From the Quote Workbook, simply select an item and click on the VendorRFQ action button to create an RFQ and invite vendors. You can also do this from the Purchasing window. VendorRFQ requires the Corporate Edition of QuoteWerks, a SQL backend (either QuoteWerks DB Hosting subscription, or a SQL database that vendorrfq.com server can access), and a VendorRFQ subscription. VendorRFQ is only supported in master installations, it is not supported in Remote Site or Remote PC installations. The VendorRFQ integration is also supported in the Quote Workbook in QuoteWerks Web. A Misc Access right of "CannotUseVendorRFQLicense" is implemented to control the use of licenses per user. Under the Utilities->View Logs menu, in the Event log, events for "Licensing.VendorRFQLicenseCountExceeded" will be recorded. [Service Release: 1.03]

 6. Product Sourcing Panel. What used to be the "Etilize panel" now will show product sourcing information even if you do not have an Etilize subscription, and specifically will display any Vendor RFQs for the selected item and also will show any product data source matches if that option has been setup under the Misc tab of the Tools->Options menu. There is now a [Refresh] button, and a new orange indicator that is displayed next to the vendor that is currently the vendor for the line item in the quote. [Service Release: 1.03]

 7. For Maximizer CRM users, Maximizer CRM 2021 R3 is now supported! [Service Release: 1.03]

 8. For Product Content Subscribers, added support for Amazon Business pricing. When credentials are setup, searching for products in the Product Lookup Amazon source will return products using the Amazon Business API rather than the Amazon PAPI (Product API) which has the benefit of returning Amazon Business pricing based on your Account versus generic Amazon pricing. [Service Release: 1.03]

 9. Tech Data France Real-time Pricing & Availability is now supported! [Service Release: 1.03]

 10. For ConnectWise Manage users, when writing Recurring Forecast Lines or Products to the ConnectWise Opportunity, if the Start and End Dates are not specified, there is now a setup option to default the dates to be "one month" or "one year" from the Opportunity Close Date. The previous behavior would set the recurring end date to be one year from the Opportunity Close Date. This option is useful because ConnectWise Manage takes the value of the contract (ie 12 months * price) when setting the value of the opportunity line item which inflates the value of the opportunity at a glance. [Service Release: 1.03]

 11. For Zoho CRM users, there is now an option to create quotes in Zoho CRM that are associated with the Zoho CRM Deal. These Quotes are populated with line item detail from the QuoteWerks quote. Line Item detail in Zoho Quotes, is only available in the Professional, Enterprise, and Ultimate editions of Zoho CRM. [Service Release: 1.03]

 12. For Zoho CRM users, bi-directional Data Linking is now supported for Zoho CRM Quote Headers. Field information can be copied from QuoteWerks into the Zoho CRM Quote and then fields can also be copied from the Zoho CRM Quote Item into QuoteWerks. This happens when QuoteWerks creates or updates an Zoho CRM Quote. This can be done on the Quote level with the EventAction of "CRMQuoteHeader_CreateUpdate". [Service Release: 1.03]

 13. For Zoho CRM users, bi-directional Data Linking is now supported for the Zoho CRM Quote Items. Field information can be copied from QuoteWerks into the Zoho CRM Quote Item and then fields can also be copied from the Zoho CRM Quote Item into QuoteWerks. This happens when QuoteWerks creates or updates an Zoho CRM Quote. This can be done on the Quote Item level with the EventAction of "CRMQuoteItem_CreateUpdate". [Service Release: 1.03]

 14. For Zoho CRM users, when creating or updating a Zoho CRM quote, the Sold To, Bill To, and Ship To addresses will be populated in the quote. This functionality can be disabled in the Settings Manager, byval setting SystemSettings\ZohoCRM\DontSetSoldToContactInQuote=-1 SystemSettings\ZohoCRM\DontSetShipToContactInQuote=-1 SystemSettings\ZohoCRM\DontSetBillToContactInQuote=-1 [Service Release: 1.03]

 15. For Zoho CRM users, in the Zoho CRM Setup in QuoteWerks, when on a Mapping Window, lists of the mappings can now be copied to the Windows Clipboard. If you double click on the left column header, you will be prompted if you want to copy the mapped pairs to the clipboard. If you double click on the right column header, you will be prompted if you want to copy all of the available mappings to the clipboard. Copying the available mappings to the clipboard is helpful, because you can use this data to import into F2 Lookup values including the ItemType in QuoteWerks. [Service Release: 1.03]

 16. There is a now a Utilities->Customer / Product Price Profile Matrix Maintenance menu that enables you to setup the Price Modifiers to map to each combination of Customer profile and Product profile. This has existed for many years, but was only accessible when editing a native product. Now it is available through this main menu, so that it is easily accessible for the new Etilize Category mappings to Product Profiles. This is very useful for setting up pricing of products without having to explicitly set a Price Modifier for every single part number. Instead you can assign each part number a product price profile like "HARDWARE", "LABOR", "SERVERS", "WORKSTATIONS", etc. Next you specify the Price Modifier to use for each combination of product profile and customer profile like "GOLDLEVEL", "SILVERLEVEL", etc. [Service Release: 1.03]

 17. For Product Content Subscribers, in addition to being able to setup the Etilize Category mapping to a Price Modifier, you can now map it to a Product Price Profile like "SERVERS". This can then be used with the Customer Profile and Product Profile Matrix which is now accessible through the Utilities->Customer / Product Price Profile Matrix Maintenance menu. [Service Release: 1.03]

 18. On the System tab of the Help->About window, Double clicking on a system information value will display the value and also copy it to the Windows Clipboard. [Service Release: 1.03]

 19. The Payments table now has an ByProxy field and the card ref is no longer encrypted and will look like "VISA x1111 exp 12/21". These changes will be more useful now that you can run management reports on the Payments table. [Service Release: 1.03]
