New ASB360 Update Release

 

With the hard work of our team, we have just released the latest version of ASB360! We are excited to share with you the newest features and improvements to the software. 

 

We have added the Student Report which will be a huge time saver for Bookkeepers.  That report will include the students information such as name, address, phone number, student ID and email.  It will also include all of the transactions the student has made, all checks that have been written out to that student, any journal entries concerning that student and all the clubs that student has joined.  The Student Report will be extremely useful in different situations, especially when trying to track a student’s transactions and purchases.

 

In the report sections, we have also added the Transaction Summary Report.  This report shows all accounts with their beginning balances, the funds that have gone in and out of the account then finally the ending balance.  This can be done for any and all time periods.  It is nice to be able to view each account and a brief summary on a single line.

 

One of the other features we have added is the ability to print receipt copies and void receipts in ASB360.  The Previous and Next buttons can be used to browse through receipts or if the receipt number is available, there is also a search feature.  A “Receipt Copy” watermark will be printed on such receipts to avoid any confusion between a copy and the original.  In case of mistakes and/or refunds, the ability to void a receipt will move things right along.

 

Besides the additions that were made, we have also made improvements to the overall usability of ASB360 including improvements to the Fundraisers, Receipts, Checks and Deposit Slips. 

 

Come back to our blog for the latest ASB360 news and updates!
