Purchase Order (P/O) Number Update
New Format for New Companies: New companies will now use a simpler, editable purchase order format (e.g., PO00034). Each P/O number must be unique.
Existing Companies: Companies that were already using LiveCosts will continue with the old format (e.g., PO - 38/001/001). However, existing companies can update this format by changing a setting in the company preferences ( shown below).
Client Invoice Import Update
Easier Import of Multiple Invoices: We’ve improved the “New from Accounting” feature! Instead of importing one invoice at a time, you can now import multiple client invoices at once using a new MultiSelect option.
Improved View: The invoices will appear in a list, making it easier to select and import them in bulk.
New P&L Report Options
Flexible Overhead Calculation: You now have the option to calculate overheads either as a percentage of Cost (as before) or as a percentage of Income. Choose the method that works best for your reporting needs. ( Default will be Overhead based on Income )
Timezone Support Update
Better Timezone Accuracy: Previously, all times were displayed in UTC, which could cause issues with the day being displayed incorrectly in Australia for example, and scan times only being accurate in Ireland/UK during winter.
Timezone Adjustment: We now automatically store your timezone offset when you log in, ensuring that all date and time displays are adjusted correctly for your location. You can view your timezone offset in your User Settings.
Customer Support Tip: Your timezone offset is taken from your browser’s locale settings. If it’s incorrect, please update your browser settings, then log out and back in to refresh the change.
