Issue: Currently, employees with Productivity access cannot directly clock on or off from the main screen of the app. Instead, they must follow a lengthy process: Open the job Click on Job Details Navigate to Tracking Select the item they want to book time against Then click Clock On To clock off, they must repeat this entire process again after reopening the app. This process is time-consuming and impractical, especially for urgent jobs or when workers switch between multiple jobs in a day. It discourages proper time tracking and opens the door for excuses around missed bookings and deadline issues. Why It Matters: Our workshop operates under tight deadlines. Some workers switch between 3–4 jobs a day, others may work on one job for a week. We need to make clocking on and off as quick and simple as possible to encourage compliance and accuracy. Requested Solution: Introduce a streamlined Clock On/Off Shortcut for users with Productivity access, either: Directly from the home screen/dashboard, or Via a persistent "Clock On/Off" button that remembers the last job/item used, or Provide a job/item selection screen immediately after tapping "Clock On," skipping the multiple-step navigation. The goal is to minimise steps and improve usability, without compromising access restrictions or data accuracy.

Please add the ability to add the Customer's ABN to the PDF templates like Invoices.

Allow the Factory logo to be remvoed from PDFs via the PDF customisation tool

Would be great to have the option in the sales order creation to select a different template so we can show & hide custom fields depending on what were quoting. Our main line of work is vehicle accesories fitting & manufacturing. We would like to be able list on the invoice & quote vehicle details i.e make, model, VIN, colour rego etc. like you would get from a car dealership when you get a service done. But also have the option to use a plain template that has no details on it.

Can we please have the option to enter the 'Mark Up' and the 'Discount' on a Sales Order as a dollar value rather than a percentage?

To speed things up, whilst building a sales order, it would be great to be able to select multiple items from a Product Catalogue sub menu, rather than needing to select 1, exit then go through all the pull down menus to re-enter the category. Example: catalogue of plywood, enabled to select 3 different thickness's whilst the menu is open, rather than just 1.

Whilst we love the fact that we can quote in Factory and then hit 'Submit as Sales Order', we would love to see the Quote remain in the system for historical purposes attached to the new Sales Order, rather than replaced by the Sales Order. This would mean the Quote wouldn't be issued a sequential Order # but instead given it's own unique Quote #. Then when it becomes an order, all of the quoted information is attached (perhaps in a separate tab) on the newly created Sales Order so it can be referred back to in the future. We understand we could use the Collaborate Tab and attach a pdf version of the quote, but we can't use global search to look for the quote number or any other details on the quote if it's a pdf under collaborate. We also note the details on a quote (or budget estimate) are significantly different to the information included on the invoice so the historical data of the quote is essentially lost. Thanks!

Link specific product line items between PO and Sales in order to automatically update the 'cost' price on Sales Order based on purchase price.

Ability to apply discounts to line itmes with part percentages eg. 12.5%.

We would love to have the functionality of the Global Search expanded to have the ability to search for products purchased which are not included in our Product Catalogue. This would give us the ability to search for a specific 'one-off' item that we don't want or need in the catalogue and would help when quoting future jobs / projects.
