Being Extra Careful When Deleting

Accidentally deleting things like a Business Center, Matter or a Bill can be quite painful and take a lot of effort in order to recover.

So in order to help prevent that, we've made deleting critical entities like these take a little more intention on your part by requiring you to also type in the name of the entity as part of the deletion process. We hope this helps prevent the rare misstep. 

The new step in the deletion process looks like this:

Email a Bill to Multiple People

Now you can have additional recipients of a bill being sent via email by adding each additional recipient as a Connection to the respective matter with the Connection Role of "Matter - Additional Bill Recipient". Those Contacts with this specific Connection Role will also receive a bill email like the Billing Contact for the Matter does.

*Note: This will not add recipients to Split Bills

Comprehensive Matter Transactions

Within your matter, in the Matter Transactions grid, we've added the remaining transaction categories to fill in the holes and complete the view of all transactions dealing with your matter. This also will help with different reporting needs dealing with your matters and accounting.

This means inside your matters you will be able to track the following transaction categories: disbursements, payments, deposits, credits, write-offs, transfers.


Customize Your "Legal Services" Disclaimer

On your bill, there has previously been a "Legal Services" disclaimer that we have now made into a field you can edit. You control it now and can have it say whatever you want or nothing at all.

The new field to control this verbiage is found within your Business Center and is named "Bill Time Period Legalese"


Timers Enhancements

In some scenarios clearing a timer was either not an option or was being inconsistent. Those have been taken care of now so you can easily clear any timer now.

The second thing we did was automatically pre-fill the matter information when you create a billing from a timer, when the timer has been added to your Matter form

The value of these small improvements will surely add up over time, plus it just makes using Curo365 feel so much better.

Automatically add Retainer Replenishment requests

Now you can set a minimum retainer balance threshold per matter so that you can easily keep money in retainer, mitigating the risk of doing work you won't see the money for.

Once you have this set, the retainer replenishment request will be automatically added to the next bill (matter invoice), whenever a matter is below the specified minimum amount you set for the matter.

Here is a guide to help you use this new feature.


Add Interest Fees to Overdue Invoices

Generate interest fees daily to add to your next Invoice for any overdue invoices. You can even set your own rate and a grace period after the official due date.

This encourages clients to pay on time and to keep your cash flowing in your firm.

Here is a guide on how to create and apply various interest rates you set up for your matters.

Improved handling of "Not Sufficient Funds" (NSF) scenarios

You already did the good work, and the payment has finally come in, but then you get the dreaded "Not Sufficient Funds" notice.

We've improved the handling of this scenario and the ability to reverse a payment and, automatically with Business Central, appropriately reflect this with the needed accounting entries in support of it. These improvements hopefully make an already annoying situation much easier to clean up.
