 Does Method have the ability to receive emails other than from Outlook?

When we create a Sales Order in Method and it syncs with QB, it automatically becomes an invoice in QB and Method.  Do we need to upgrade to Premier to solve this problem or is there another option? (Basically we can not use the Sales Order feature right now.)

Victoria, Our original Estimate screen required a small update for this to work as you would expect it to in QuickBooks. We’ve already pushed this out which is the good news. Thanks! Now, these updates will not hit any customized version of the screen. We’ve listed the changes below (simple changes) so that you can reverse ...

Hope this helps. 

My "flow" when a customer calls in is to create a case in Method for that customers inquiry.  I have created a button in the case screen that links to the estimates screen.  Is it possible for me to transfer the customer contact data from the case I am viewing to the estimate without having to do a ...

Hi John, I have had the idea for an equipment maintenance app brewing in my head for some time. I have begun some preliminary work on it, but not enough to be usable yet. It will probably be at least a month or two before I have something ready to go into beta testing, but it might save you the time and expense of creating it yourself if ...
