Most Recent Updates (April, 2013)

SalesDoc Architect Version: 8.025
SalesDoc Architect Release Date: April 29, 2013

END-USER APPLICATION CHANGES

• Updated! We’ve optimized the document builder application to build Word outputs faster than ever!
• New! “Replace tab with new (blank) version” now brings the new tab in the same relative position as the old tab that it replaces.
• New! You can now overwrite Tigerpaw costing on items brought into the Write-In tab by changing the Unit Cost cell (column AH) on the Write-In tab.
• New! SalesDoc Architect now works with Office 2013, although we recommend holding off on upgrading to Office 2013 until Microsoft issues its first service pack.  Currently, Office 2013 runs SDA more slowly and with odd screen updates.  However, all of the functions and features work!

ARCHITECT MANAGER CHANGES

• New! Updated setup files have been created for end-users and managers.  You can download the latest end-user setup file via the “Download user setup file” button on the Network Setup screen (which you can access via File, Setup) within Architect Manager.  Please contact CorsPro support if you need the manager setup file.
• New! As mentioned last month, we’ve simplified the new user installation process and expanded the options for distributing SalesDoc Architect updates to end users.  We have also added the ability to push out updates via a shared network folder or a password-protected FTP site.  For more information, please refer to the ‘Network Setup’ help topic in Architect Manager’s help files or register for our May 3 webinar on this topic.
