I think everything we’ve talked about is fixed, and the latest beta is up. We weren’t able to add the “Send to Desktop” feature in this version as it actually requires a large re-working of the system internals (it’ll have to wait for version 2). But everything else should be up and running.
As usual, remove the old version before installing the new one.
We will be building a pay prior to download option and are already working on integration with the NACHI agreement system so that the online agreement must be signed before you can download.
Yeah, either will be optional. So you can just send out the reports as normal, send 'em requiring payment, send 'em requiring signing, or send 'em requiring signing and payment.
Anyone come across any new bugs? If so, can you post 'em here as soon as possible. I’m going to be gone for a bit starting Friday, and I’d love to get all the major bugs fixed before then.
I had in instance today (uploading today's second report - 42 Lagoon Villa) where it said 'checking parameters' (or something similar) and hung up for a few seconds, cleared and then went on to say 'uploading'...
Other than that excellent workings…
Can’t wait for the ‘pay me first’ - introduction/checkout cart…
Not sure how this is planned, but if it can be integrated as part of the FetchReport Process - before they can view their report - great.
Some way in which we don’t have to ask them in a separate communication / link / request to do so.
We’ll probably do it in a 2-stage process. The first will just be an option on each report that’s something to the effect of “This inspection has been paid for” checkbox. You can upload the report whenever, and check the box off when the report has been paid for. Eventually we’ll offer e-payments thru paypal, but that will take a bit longer.
