TaxJar Rollup

Big Business 13.35 fixes the TaxJar Rollup function, which is used in special circumstances to change the Response from TaxJar. The function of TaxJar Connect is to send Taxable Subtotal and Shipping amounts with Address information to get a real-time estimate of the tax to collect based on Nexus information you provide.


  Original Confirmation

Original Confirmation lets you keep original ETA Dates for items on Orders and PO's.

OC Dates keep the original, confirmed ETA for items, while the real ETA may change. This gives you an additional date on each Line Item for exporting for external reporting.

Enabled in Company card, Advanced Options, OC Dates require an Enterprise license. They appear on Expanded tabs of Sales Order and Purchase Order and Detail Exports.


  Tab Change

Big Business 13.35 updates Auto-Zoom to refresh when you change Tabs on Account, Bank, Bill, Bin, Category, Company, Contact, Customer, Employee, Invoice, Item, Item Adjustment, Journal, Order, Pay, Payment, PO, Quote, Requisition, Schedule, Store, Transfer, Vendor, and Warehouse.


  Insert Page

Big Business 13.35 updates Auto-Zoom to insert a start page on Bill, Bin, Company, Invoice, Item Adjustment, Journal, Quote, Requisition, Store, Transfer, and Warehouse.

Big Business 13.37 fixes errors this caused such as double-clicking or validation errors on the wrong tab of a Bill.


  Auto-Zoom Optimize

Auto-Zoom Optimize resets some alignment corrections that are no longer needed.


  Field Style

Field Style was added in My Prefs in Big Business 13 for customized outline of Fields.
Big Business 14 does not support this option because it conflicts with automatic color. This feature is disabled in Big Business 13.73 and Big Business 14.30 to solve coloring.

Options were:
• No Border - this setting removes the box
• System Border - on Windows this setting highlights the box on entry
• Classic Border - on Windows this setting creates a sunken effect

In Big Business 14 this setting has no effect.


  Lock Invoices

Lock Invoices lets you exceed your regular system protection settings for just invoices. Enter a Lock Invoices Date and any invoices dated on or before the date will be locked.

If you click the Lock on an Invoice for Locked By information, the result can link here. This indicates that Lock Invoices is enabled and is locking the invoice you are viewing.

This setting was added to lock invoices when filing sales taxes to prevent any changes. Please confer with your system administrator or bookkeeper before changing the past.


To Lock Invoices:

1. Go to the System toolbar to System Prefs.

You must be the only user on the system to access this tool.

2. Enter a date for Lock Invoices Date.

3. Click OK to save the System Prefs.




  Credit Cards

Credit Cards are handled in two ways in Big Business: safe storing and fast processing.

Safe storing of credit cards is built-in to each Big Business and just needs to be enabled. This is done by turning on Secure Passwords, then Secure Credit Cards, and restarting.

Fast processing of credit cards uses the Authorize.Net Connect Add-On plus service. You need an account with Authorize.Net, a Visa Solution, and any Merchant Account. If you have a swiper for walk-in customers, you already have your Merchant Account.

Of course many options are available for a custom connection to your service provider, many imports support online payments, and the bottom line is always cost efficiency. This Solution will list changes, such as to the Credit Card widget and dialogs to update.


Big Business 13.70 and Big Business 14.27 update Credit Card widget appearance, again.

Big Business 13.35 updated the Credit Card widget to Apple Optimize.
