Over recent months we have been rolling out a new style guide for Clear Books.<\/p>\n
The reason we are doing\u00a0this is to ensure a modern and consistent approach to layout, colours, icons, grids and fonts that is more accessible on the web and via tablets.<\/p>\n
Although many pages and features\u00a0have had the new style applied to them, this week a highly used\u00a0page underwent the design update, the create invoice page.<\/p>\n
To reduce the impact of change we have been putting new pages in Preview for 30 days so customers have time to try new pages or features\u00a0and switch back to the old approach if needed.<\/p>\n
A lot of the feedback we have received from customers regarding the create invoice page has been received after\u00a0the new page came out of Preview on Monday. Clearly, this is the wrong way round and we have learned that we need to do a lot more to raise the awareness of items in Preview to get your feedback before we release\u00a0new pages out. This is something we will do next time we launch a page or feature in Preview.<\/p>\n
We have had some really excellent feedback from our customers to improve the create invoice page and are doing our best to work through these.<\/p>\n
Since yesterday, based on your input, we have:<\/strong><\/p>\n 1. Moved product items to be the first dropdown in the item details<\/p>\n 2. Made the summary text box visible by default to reduce an extra click<\/p>\n 3. Reduced whitespace by putting the invoice theme dropdown\u00a0in line with other dropdowns<\/p>\n We are immediately\u00a0looking to:<\/strong><\/p>\n 1. Not\u00a0remember the last customer invoiced<\/p>\n 2. Improve the contact dropdowns to combine scrolling through a list and search depending on number of contacts<\/p>\n 3. Add email status to Purchase order and sales order lists<\/p>\n We are also listening to the rest of your feedback but the above\u00a0is the priority.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Over recent months we have been rolling out a new style guide for Clear Books.
