Billing hours rounding
Billing hours rounding: Able to set the billing hours increment in minutes and allow roundup or normal math rounding. This is in Setup>Company>System along with the dispatch and hours settings.

Auto- reserve non-serialized items
Auto-reserve items that are not serialized option. This will simplify inventory allocation so that non-serialized inventory items do not need to be picked or reserved.

Customer Lists tab on contracts
Customer Lists and Customer History now shows in Maintenance Contracts
Allows users to see customer lists and history including custom fields without having to jump to the customer

Time Tracking Table
Added separate table for time tracking called taskdetail that can be connected to order and ordertask (labor item)

Billing Status changes
Billing status options to charge Fixed hours, scheduled hours, or actual time tracking hours.
Billing status on labor replaces the checkbox “Equal Billable to make scheduled = billable”
Billing status can be set as default in following areas:
- Setup>Company>Customer Defaults>Rates and Charges Defaults. This will allow setting of a default billing status for any newly generated customers.
- Customer>Rates. Once set all orders created for this customer will have this default billing status
- Service or Install Orders>Details and Settings. Once billing status is set, all new labor created will use this billing status but it can be changed.
-Service or Install Orders>Order Items>Labor.

Packages
Packages are now always broken out into line items
