May 2022: What’s New and Improved

This month we released Workflow Jobs – a game changing feature for practices using Annual Billing Jobs in XPM. This allows you to monitor and track your XPM Tasks using the full suite of jobs functionality within FYI. Business Structure can now be displayed as a column in your clients list. Use it to sort and filter your clients – and to run automations – like sending bulk email communications to your clients based on their business structure. And we’ve welcomed PDFit to the FYI family, so you can edit PDFs in the cloud rather than saving PDF documents to your desktop.

April 2022: What’s New and Improved

This month has seen the release of AutoComplete Tasks – a great new tool to use in your automations. For example, a task can now be set to auto-complete when the status of a document has updated to “Client Signed”.  A great little time-saver! Bulk Update can now be used to update multiple Client Custom Fields. Use it to apply a current date on mass, or to set a specific date and update your client’s lodgement due dates in a flash. Plus you’ll find improvements to Email Signatures – now easier to personalise, with more formatting options.

Our latest course in Learn has been released – Getting Started as an FYI Admin. Designed to help you set up FYI to suit your practice, it covers cabinets and categories, users and user groups, and practice wide settings.

Need to know the who has made a change to a client or job, and when? The new Activity tabs in your workspaces act as an audit log, keeping track changes.

January 2022: What’s New and Improved

We’ve kicked 2022 off with the release of two great new features!

Categories are now available for Tasks, allowing you to identify and manage high priority tasks at an individual level, by client or job, and even practice-wide.

Also new, is the ability to create and edit Custom Fields for Clients and Jobs – giving you instant access to the most up to date information to use in FYI for filtering and in automations. No more waiting for a sync!

And we’ve been busy with enhancements throughout the platform – from search and retrieval tools, to task management, automations and more.

New integration with myprosperity

FYI now integrates with myprosperity, a sophisticated client portal that makes it easy for practices to work together with their clients and key stakeholders, maximising efficiencies and scaling their level of engagement.

Invite your clients to sign documents within myprosperity. Once signed, documents will be automatically pulled back into FYI and threaded with the original – in the same way that our existing digital signing platform integrations work.

You can also use the new myprosperity integration for document exchange – sending documents to the client or receiving them via upload.
