Unannounced update?

Orkocean

Just curious if anyone else has noticed some new items in sitelink? Doing a live update randomly just now and in the payments tab there is a column showing uninsured, also inside the payments screen they had a shield icon saying if they're current or not with insurance.

Wondering what other changes anyone has found if any since I don't see anything in version history about any changes/updates.

So I looked to see if I had the icon - didn't see it - did the live update and voila - there it is.

Another thing we noticed is when you pull reports>receipts you now have an option to pull receipts only for a specific daily close.

I don't have that, but we don't require insurance. I can always tell when an update is done tho, due to having to change some settings back. Updates switch some of our settings around. Today it just so happen to be my discounts I noticed

Orkocean

@ESS really? I havn't had any issues with it making changes to settings in years. Back at our first company years ago we noticed updates always seemed to alter settings though.

ESS

@Orkocean Oh absolutely. Every time there is an update, something reverts back to "default" and we have to fix it. The fun part is trying to find out which setting exactly was tampered with. It's usually discounts or my permissions that get toyed with.

So to clarify - as far as the icon, you mean the ones that show under the customer note?
   For this we have no icons for those with insurance.

And for payments tab, you are referring to the list of customer names that we select from, correct?
   On this we have no insurance column.

@i43storage @Orkocean I did a live update and don't see any changes...

dbudgen

I think he just posted this to see how many of us he could get to do the live update. 

RobinF

@dbudgen...Well, it worked. I did the update and din't see any changes

AnitaJohnson1269

I got changes in 2 places. 
 
Payments List


And on Tenant Payment Page

dbudgen

@RobinF I did it too. Didn't see any changes either.


@AnitaJohnson1269 What insurance company are you using? We use Sage and didn't get those updates.

AnitaJohnson1269

@dbudgen we use Storsmart. 

Orkocean

Lol maybe if it was April fools I would of tried something to see how many I could troll but no, actual updates. There was a community manager response on this thread stating it was for Storsmart integration yet the post seems to be gone now.... kinda odd.

dbudgen

That's what we were figuring @AnitaJohnson1269 @Orkocean, we don't use the insurance company that it's for. Thanks

ESS

@Orkocean I remember the community mgr responding to this thread...so weird it is now gone! I believe it was Jessica?

Orkocean

@ESS yeah I believe that's who it was. I can't think of any reason a community managers post would get removed unless it was improper "which nothing about her response was afaik" or she's no longer in the position? Kind of why I've been spending more time keeping up with the other storage forum vs this one as I feel it's on the decline for keeping up with things.

ESS

@Orkocean Same here. Seems to be more help and activity there. I've seen some that no longer are with the company whom still have their responses up so that is a very good question as well

Hi! I'm still here. I needed to remove the video I posted about the insurance update because it was no longer accurate. We'll have more details about the recent silent updates in addition to the upcoming updates in the near future.

It was for two companies.  One was Bader.

The two integrated insurance companies are Bader and Storsmart.

I don't believe it's the same Sage that has the payment processing.  The insurance is through Sageins.com.

dbudgen

@JulieA No, they are to different companies. Our insurance company is Sage Storage Insurance Services.
