Not every change below reflects something your shop experienced. Some improvements were proactive, account-specific, or based on customer feedback. We’re sharing them here to keep the Shopmonkey community informed.
Orders & Estimates
- The technician assignment dropdown on the labor sidebar now only lists active users, and labor cost on canned service lines no longer resets to zero when a tech is assigned.
- Workflow drag-and-drop now keeps order cards in the column position you placed them, and tag filters stay applied as you page through results.
- Hidden column preferences in Workflow now persist after logging out and back in.
- When a flat-rate tech is assigned, newly added labor lines now pick up the flat rate automatically.
- Customer credits for overpayments now generate without error, and fully paid orders can be converted to invoices.
- Fixed several display issues — long order titles, the Activity panel showing empty after switching orders, and the "Order Settings" header appearing for Basic-tier shops with no settings.
- Creating an appointment from an estimate while changing customer contact info no longer creates a duplicate work order.
- Canned service line item visibility toggles now behave consistently regardless of when the customer is selected.
Parts & Inventory
- Canned Service layout no longer distorts on wide screens, and category search still works after adding a QuickBooks reference.
