This commitment to improvement, driven by customer feedback, has been part of our philosophy since the very beginning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, we\u2019re taking a look back at all the updates we\u2019ve rolled out during the first half of 2024, which clearly reflect STEL Order\u2019s core approach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_82_2 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-custom ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\"><p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<\/div><nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/www-stg.stelorder.com\/en\/blog\/updates-first-half-2024\/#my-banks-in-my-stel-order\" >My Banks in my STEL Order<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/www-stg.stelorder.com\/en\/blog\/updates-first-half-2024\/#bundled-products\" >Bundled Products<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/www-stg.stelorder.com\/en\/blog\/updates-first-half-2024\/#mfa-to-enhance-the-security-of-your-account\" >MFA to enhance the security of your account<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"https:\/\/www-stg.stelorder.com\/en\/blog\/updates-first-half-2024\/#multiple-improvements\" >Multiple improvements<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-5\" href=\"https:\/\/www-stg.stelorder.com\/en\/blog\/updates-first-half-2024\/#create-documents-faster\" >Create documents faster<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"my-banks-in-my-stel-order\"><\/span>My Banks in my STEL Order<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At the beginning of the year, we launched the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.stelorder.com\/europe\/erp\/bancos\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">My Banks<\/a><\/strong> feature to simplify and enhance the financial management experience for our users. This tool is designed to allow automatic synchronization of your bank accounts with STEL Order, providing a smoother and more efficient workflow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Synchronization with over 100 banking institutions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019ve partnered with more than 100 European banks so you can link your bank transactions directly to STEL Order. This means your bank activity is automatically updated within your account, giving you a real-time and accurate view of your financial status at all times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Simplified bank reconciliation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>With the <strong>My Banks<\/strong> feature, you can easily reconcile payments and collections from your bank account with your invoices, account entries, receipts, and other recorded expenses in STEL Order. This integration automatically matches each transaction with the corresponding accounting record, eliminating manual work and reducing the risk of errors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Benefits of bank reconciliation in STEL Order<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Time-saving<\/strong>: Automatic transaction sync eliminates the need for manual data entry, saving time and reducing errors.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Financial accuracy<\/strong>: Bank reconciliation ensures your financial records are always accurate and up to date, making it easier to manage your cash flow.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Complete financial overview<\/strong>: By connecting your bank accounts to STEL Order, you gain a full picture of your finances in one place, improving decision-making.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Security<\/strong>: We use advanced security protocols to protect your banking data, ensuring your information remains safe at all times.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>As part of our ongoing effort to constantly evolve STEL Order, we introduced several improvements to the feature shortly after its launch:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>We added a new window that allows you to access detailed information about each bank transaction.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>We enabled the option to export transactions in <strong>Excel<\/strong> or <strong>CSV<\/strong> format.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"bundled-products\"><\/span>Bundled Products<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Following the launch of My Banks, we introduced the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.stelorder.com\/erp\/productos-compuestos\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Bundled Products<\/a><\/strong> feature in STEL Order. This tool allows you to manage items sold as sets made up of multiple components, enabling businesses to handle products made from several parts or materials efficiently and accurately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What are Bundled Products?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Bundled products are created by combining several individual items. Simply select a bundled product in any document, and all of its component lines will be automatically added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We developed this feature with the goal of taking product configuration in STEL Order to the next level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Flexibility<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019ve designed the feature to give you maximum flexibility when setting up your bundled products:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Set the price of a bundled product as the <strong>sum of the sales prices<\/strong> of its components.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Apply a <strong>multiplier<\/strong> to include margins or discounts automatically.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Or assign a <strong>custom price<\/strong> to the bundled product, independent of its components.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Customize and configure everything<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You can define the components, quantities, and prices of a bundled product based on your client\u2019s specific needs. If you prefer to keep the configuration fixed, you also have the option to <strong>lock the components<\/strong>, preventing edits when generating documents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"mfa-to-enhance-the-security-of-your-account\"><\/span>MFA to enhance the security of your account<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In recent years, cybersecurity has become a top priority for both businesses and users. At STEL Order, protecting our clients&#8217; data has always been one of our core commitments. That\u2019s why we\u2019ve strengthened account security by introducing <strong>MFA<\/strong>, a feature designed to safeguard access and manage the devices connected to your STEL Order account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong>MFA<\/strong> functionality (Multi-Factor Authentication) allows you to secure access and monitor the devices linked to your STEL Order account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thanks to <strong>2FA<\/strong> (Two-Factor Authentication), when you sign in for the first time on any device, you&#8217;ll be prompted to enter a <strong>unique verification code<\/strong> sent to the user\u2019s or Super Admin\u2019s email. This code is valid for 15 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"multiple-improvements\"><\/span>Multiple improvements<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Beyond new features, our commitment to continuous improvement also extends to enhancing existing tools. Here\u2019s a summary of the many updates we\u2019ve rolled out:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">More flexible and complete closed job requests<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Manage your daily job requests more efficiently with the ability to <strong>edit closed job requests<\/strong> and <strong>generate multiple documents<\/strong> from a single request.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Automatic job requests in the calendar<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The new <strong>Job Request Calendar<\/strong> is now available in the STEL Order agenda. This calendar view allows you to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Drag and reschedule appointments more easily.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Quickly view completed and pending work.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Check a technician\u2019s availability.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Search and click on a job request to open its details instantly.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Online document signing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Need to request a signature after leaving a job site? Or require a signed approval before starting a project? With <strong>online document signing<\/strong>, your client receives the document via email and sees the \u201cSign Document\u201d button.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They simply enter their name, tax ID, and draw their signature. Once signed, it becomes visible on the document. You can view the signature and all related details under the <strong>Signature<\/strong> tab in STEL Order.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Supplier references in product cards and documents<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In each product\u2019s <strong>Pricing<\/strong> tab, you can now include a special purchase price and your supplier\u2019s reference number. This reference will automatically appear in any purchase documents you generate for that supplier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Attach ownership certificates for bank transfer payments<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You can now attach your <strong>bank ownership certificate<\/strong> when sending documents that specify bank transfer as the payment method\u2014adding trust and credibility to your business communications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Easier access to related document attachments<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>From any client or supplier card, you can now <strong>view and download attachments<\/strong> from all related documents. You can also send documents along with attachments from:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Related documents<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Projects<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Linked assets<br>Attachments have never been more accessible!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Warehouse &amp; location info in downloaded order summaries<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Make warehouse order preparation easier. When viewing your sales or work order lists, click <strong>More &gt; Download Summary<\/strong> to get an Excel file that includes <strong>product locations<\/strong> (if previously recorded).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Show location info in document lines<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In any document view, hover your mouse over the <strong>Units<\/strong> field to quickly view the product\u2019s location in your warehouse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Spell checker in email message editor<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We all make mistakes. That\u2019s why we\u2019ve added a <strong>spell checker<\/strong> to help you improve your writing when sending documents via email. Errors are underlined in red, and you can press <strong>Ctrl + right-click<\/strong> to see correction suggestions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">User type filter in recycle bin<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You can now recover deleted <strong>STEL Order<\/strong> or <strong>STEL Tempo<\/strong> users from the Recycle Bin. The system now displays and filters the <strong>user type<\/strong>, so you can easily distinguish between them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Customize email templates by document type<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Create and assign different <strong>email templates<\/strong> for each document type. Then, when sending a document by email, you can choose the most suitable template.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Use this feature to remind clients of specific terms, communicate in multiple languages, or change the tone depending on the document.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just like templates, you can also create <strong>custom signatures<\/strong> or use a default one for all communications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Add more details to your job requests<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019ve improved the <strong>Job Request<\/strong> interface to give you faster, more efficient access to your information. The interface is now split into two sections: <strong>\u2018General\u2019<\/strong> and <strong>\u2018More Information\u2019<\/strong>. This way, when you open a job request, you immediately see the most relevant details, such as: <strong>Client, Execution Date, Phone Number<\/strong> (this field has been updated to allow two phone numbers if needed), and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the <strong>\u2018More Information\u2019<\/strong> tab, you\u2019ll find additional data. Here, you can indicate whether you want to send an email notification to the client when the job request is created or closed. You can also link related <strong>assets or projects<\/strong>, or specify if this work should be <strong>billed to a different client<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On mobile, you can plan your job requests just as easily, and reorder the priority for each technician.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can also take advantage of these new features:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The <strong>\u2018Assets\u2019<\/strong> field is now more functional, showing assets registered at the selected address first, followed by those registered at other addresses.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In the <strong>\u2018Type\u2019<\/strong> field, you\u2019ll see previously created job request types, such as \u201cMaintenance\u201d or \u201cVisit.\u201d If you need a new type, you can create it directly from this view. If you prefer, you can also manage them from <strong>Basic Settings > Data Lists > Job Request Types<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The <strong>\u2018Estimated Duration\u2019<\/strong> field is used to communicate the expected duration of the job request among team members.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The <strong>\u2018Resolution\u2019<\/strong> field allows you to record how the job was resolved once completed. This helps share important details with your team and keep all information in one place.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"create-documents-faster\"><\/span>Create documents faster<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019ve optimized document creation for everyday workflows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Add multiple products from the cart<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In your documents, use the <strong>\u201cAdd products or services\u201d<\/strong> button to open a cart-style view (similar to the app). You can quickly add, remove, or modify quantities for multiple products in just a few clicks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Create documents from catalog products or services<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>From the Catalog list, select products or services and click <strong>More &gt; Generate<\/strong> to instantly create a document. This option is also available by:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Right-clicking an item<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Opening a product or service card<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pinned tabs in documents<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Navigate easily between tabs in documents, even with many line items. The top header stays pinned so you can quickly switch tabs or click actions like \u201cUpdate lines\u201d without losing your place.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At STEL Order, we&#8217;re committed to continuous improvement.
