Starting in 2019, Rental Expert and Elite adopted sprint updates to ensure our software is always the most innovative, feature-filled rental software available. Because updates are coming every couple weeks, we\u2019re going to highlight a few items each quarter to show our progress \u2013 if you\u2019re using versions 2018 or 2019, you can find all the details of every update in NetHelp.<\/span><\/p>\n

Here are some highlights from Q3\u2019s updates <\/span>(a * indicates a user-suggested feature)<\/span><\/i>:<\/span><\/p>\n

\u25b6 Release Notes for Everybody!<\/strong><\/h4>\n

The person installing an update to the system isn\u2019t necessarily the person who needs the information most. Now every user will be prompted to read new release notes to find the features relevant to them. You\u2019ll have the chance to decline or postpone reading them, but the more you read, the more you\u2019ll be able to get from your software. And knowing is half the battle.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u25b6 See the Future!<\/strong><\/h4>\n

If you\u2019d like to set your Spring 2020 rates now, you can customize rate increases with a future date by category, instead of having to set them by item. You can choose to hold current reservations at the current price (or not). Basically, your software will know your future prices so there aren\u2019t any surprises between you and your customers when it\u2019s time to send the order out.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u25b6 Parts Where They\u2019re Needed*!<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Have a central location where your parts and equipment are shipped to by your vendors? Transfer items as they arrive at your hub to the store that needs them with an easy right-click. Their purchase order will be fulfilled and the transfer to that store will be initiated immediately.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u25b6 Dynamic Transfers*!<\/strong><\/h4>\n

When you\u2019re restocking bulk items, the system will provide a list of items that can be transferred from one location to another to meet minimums at the receiving store (without causing the transferring store to fall below their minimum requirements).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u25b6 Streamlined Dispatching*!<\/strong><\/h4>\n

We continue to make the dispatching process smoother and more efficient. We\u2019ve removed some prompts (like the one to print item instructions) and questions, allowing your dispatchers to spend their time worrying about more important things, like your drivers being on time and planning tomorrow\u2019s routes.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u25b6 One, Two, Fee*!<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Credit card convenience fees can be assessed when a credit card is taken as a payment, whether you\u2019re taking the payment at the contract payment screen, account payments screen, or even via web orders.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This is just a handful of the dozens of program tweaks and added features over the past three months.
