Did anyone notice we released an update on Monday but there was no announcement????  Make sure to click the Read More below if you want to read up on all the details, but first lets talk about videos! 

In this latest episode of coreCAST we try not to poke too much fun at Mr. Bezos and fail horribly in our attempt, we double down on our love for all things Elon Musk, we discuss Apple's play on privacy, and we give you a few great nuggets from coreSTORE and coreFORCE! 

Check it out and SUBSCRIBE!

And in honor of our next coreCAST we decided to publish this teaser which gave someone a chance to win a $600+ computer!  If you are not subscribed to our YouTube channel, you are truly missing out on some great entertainment (ok "great" might be stretching it) and some pretty darn good giveaways.

Congrats to Chris Ray from Winchester Gallery in Fort Worth Texas for winning this AMAZING new HP Chromebase!  It's a nearly perfect 4473 Kiosk!

Where are the serial numbers? DO NOT PANIC!

improvement The serial numbers in the items screen have moved to their own spot.  We felt it was tiem to treat them with the proper respect they deserve, so rather than scrolling all the way down to see the serial numbers, you can just click the Serial Numbes tab.

Layaways

exciting! You can now choose whether a Layaway transaction should deduct or commit inventory.  Although to many of you this may not seem like it should be a choice, we prefer allowing the business owner to decide how to run their business.  To change the behavior go to Store Config and jump to the Suspended Sales section. You can change the behavior of the layaway.

Receiving and Transfers

new feature Item Tags can now be displayed when receiving an item.  To enable this feature make sure to check the Show Item Tags checkbox in Store Config under the Purchase 

new feature Inventory Transfer Requests can now be entered.  If you own multiple stores, you can now enter a Transfer Request which allows one store to request inventory from another store.  This transaction does not affect inventory in any way (it's like a quote).

Item Screen

new feature You can now add the Margin and Margin % columns to the items screen.

Fulfillment Sheets

improvement Location at Store field has now been added to the fulfillment sheets.

Reports

exciting! Payment By Day Report

Sometimes a picture speaks 1000 words, so click on the image below to see the new Payment By Day report which you will find in the Reports/Payments section, this will be for sure a fan favorite!

new feature  Custom Fields

The Custom Sales report will now allow you to select a customer custom field as one of the report criteria.

improvement Item Sales Summary Report

Added the ability to add a list of items to report on.  The list can be either item id's or UPC Codes.

Bound Book

improvement Disposition tab and Dialog: Added instructional text under the 'Dispose 4473 Transaction' field to explain what it is.

improvement Disposition tab and Dialog: Automatically insert the 4473 Transaction ID if we can determine that the bound book item is on a 4473, otherwise we enter 'n/a' into that field.        

improvement Added instructional text under the 'Dispose 4473 Transaction' field to explain what it is.

improvement Modal Disposition dialog (from clicking Dispose in main Bound Book screen):         

Bug Fixes

fix Layaways created online were not always importing the correct amount due.  This has been fixed.

fix Unsuspending a sale transaction was unchecking the send sms option.

fix On the sales screen when you add the amount and then change the payment type, the amount was being removed.

fix The 4473 QR code was not showing on emailed receipts.

fix When adding a new firearms to a firearm transfer the system was not automatically going back to the transfer screen.

fix Scanning a bar code in the sales screen would sometimes still bring up multiple results even though an exact match could be found.

fix Enhanced message when age verification was not met.

fix  4473 where gun types that contained a quote mark would cause JavaScript errors when trying to load Section A.    

fix  The 'Dispose 4473 Transaction ID' being mandatory was causing issues with some FFL's.

fix On the h3310 the 'sold date' was showing as the 'Transfer Date' on the form, instead of the disposition date. (Note that this was only for screen display; the PDF generation was using the disposition date correctly.)           

exciting! We have some great new enhancements to share this week as well as some HUGE updates right around the corner to push us into Fall (stay tuned for those).

new feature exciting! "Add New" option

Okay, this one has actually been out for a few weeks and it somehow slipped through the cracks as far as announcements are concerned...

This is a HUGE update for productivity. Gone are the days of forgetting to add something before you need to select it from a list. You now have an option from almost all dropdowns in the system to "Add New". This will open another tab where you can add the forgotten record. Upon saving it should select it from the dropdown for you so you can continue on with your work unimpeded.

exciting! important improvement Improvements to the Sitemap 

The sitemap will now list products in order of search relevance with in-stock products first, so Google should be much more likely to crawl more important products.

exciting! improvement SEO Updates

You can now set link names and set unused manufacturers as inactive. Both of these options have huge SEO benefits.

This article details how and why this is helpful and how to set it up!

Maintenance tasks for Search Engine Optimization (SEO)

improvement Substitutions

There is now a payment_table substitution that can be used in the receipt to show all the payment methods used and how much charged to each.  

This is especially great for layaways!

Use the substitution %payment_table%

new feature Credova Notification

There’s now a notification email that can be sent when a Credova loan is cancelled (usually because the product went out of stock before the customer completed checkout)

Use the code CREDOVA_RETURN for your email code. 

new feature exciting! Promotion Use Report

There is now a report that records the usage count, sales total, and discount amount for promotions. To use this report, go to Orders -> Reports -> Promotion Use.

Before we talk updates lets just talk about our YouTube channel.   Not sure it's worth watching the whole cast unless you are super bored, but a few golden nuggets in can be found in the cast where we go through some coreSTORE features (If you expand the description of the video there is a list of bookmarks which allow you to skip to the content that interests you), but if by some odd chance you are interested in some unfiltered political rhetoric, crypto or even aliens then watch the entire video.

Click below on the Read More Link to read the details of this update.

Inventory

exciting! new feature Quantity Units Support

When setting up items you can now specify various units of measure and receive and/or sell by different units of measure.  For example you may receive and stock items by the case, but sell them by the case, by the box or by each.  

Another example of this is you might sell a beverage as a single, 6 pack and 12 pack. In this case you would have quantity unit variations of 6 and 12. 

You can even attach an item number to a specific variation so it can be scanned easily. In addition to this you can define cost price, unit price, and promo prices for each variation as well as Inventory quantity, Reorder Levels, and Replenish Amounts.

Different units of measure can even have different bar codes associated with them. To add Quantity Units for any item, click the Variation tab and add the additional quantity units that you want to define.

On the sales screen and receiving screen you can change the unit of measure being sold/received:

Sale Screen

new feature Added the ability to require capturing the customer's email address and/or phone number. You can set those as required in the Store Configuration:

new feature Added a new security option to allow employees to see inventory from ALL locations even if they have access to just one location.  When this option is checked if you click the item link in the sales screen, it will show the quantities in all locations.

Suppliers

improvement Search suppliers is now case insensitive.

Purchase Order

new feature exciting! Early Look

We have added an advanced purchasing feature to provide a much more streamlined way to have the system generate purchase orders.  We plan on publishing a video on this in the near future, but in the meantime if you feel brave you can try it out. In the PO & Receiving screen you can click the ... menu and see a new menu option that has the word beta in front of it.

Firearm FFL Transfers

improvement You can now add new firearms to an existing transfer.  If the firearm comes from a second or third FFL, you can still add it to the transfer, but make sure to edit the bound book acquisition information.  Just click the Edit button to add firearms to an existing transfer.

Expenses

new feature You can now upload a picture of a receipt to an expense.

Reports

new feature exciting! Sales Summary By Interval

This report will help you analyze how much activity you have during specific periods of time, you can even break it down by day of the week which is a tremendous tool that will help you better schedule your labor

Super powerful!

improvement Payment Graphical Report will now sum the gift card payments rather than showing them individually.

Boundbook/4473/3310

improvement Modified Disposition Info page to require Dispose 4473 Transaction and Disposition Date for individuals when trying to dispose to prevent issues with 3310 generation, etc.    

improvement Modified multiple disposition popup window to require Dispose 4473 Transaction for individuals 4473

improvement 3310 - Added instructional text under Forwarding Info so FFLs would know how to set it up for automatic insertion.    

improvement  Added additional indexes to 3310 tables to speed up Manage 4473 display

Bug Fixes

• Fixed bug with PO Import
• What's new banner should no longer print on receipts
• When adding a new customer or FFL the user will be properly returned to the transfer screen. 
• Firearms from other locations with the same Boundbook ID were showing up on 3310 forms.
• When trying to create a 3310 from a 4473 where the firearms were not linked by the dispose_4473_transaction field, would exit and not display a dialog as to why it didn't work.    
• The same firearm could appear twice on the same 3310.  
• Disposed guns would sometimes show up in the serial count screen (in the serial number drop down)
• FINALLY fixed main code that was causing firearms that had been disposed a long time ago, then re-acquired, sold, and re-disposed from appearing on a 3310.

HAPPY FRIDAY!!!!!  Two updates in one week, not unheard of, but also not very frequent.  We had a couple of critical updates we wanted to release so we decided to push this out before the weekend.   This is a pretty short one, so no need to grab any coreFFEINE...

improvement Enhancement for our customers with multiple stores

Serial numbers will now show on the items screen for the current location. You will see a new checkbox that allows you to see serial numbers for all locations.  You can also quickly change a serial number to another location.  

If you are a bound book user keep in mind that changing the serial number location on the items screen WILL NOT change anything in the bound book.

exciting! Days in Stock added to the Receiving Items Summary Report

Hopefully it is exciting and not depressing...but nonetheless it's good information to know.   We have added the last receive date and the number of days an item has been in stock to the Receiving Items Summary Report. As a retailer the importance of having the right inventory at the right time and the right cost is essential.  Make sure you click the image below unless you bionic eyesight.

improvement Customer Birth Date & Age Restriction

Sometimes the obvious is not so obvious.  This feature request was pointed out by one of our customers, if the customer purchasing an item with an age restriction has a birth date on their account then there is no need to request the age verification. Either they are old enough to purchase the item or not.

improvement Emailing your FFL (if you have one)

When you email your FFL we will alert you if there is no license loaded in the locations screen and prevent you from sending a email without the license file.

improvement Detailed Suspended Sales Report

Enhanced the detailed suspended sales report to include all suspended types.

fix Return on gift cards has returned!  You can once again create a new gift card when doing a return.  In case you are wondering, we did not remove this feature on purpose 😀 - we call this a coreKROACH, otherwise known as a bug.

fix Fixed employee permissions so all options are selectable.

coreSTORE MOBILE APPS!

exciting! After many trials and tribulations Apple has finally approved our app.  If you are an Apple fan, download our app.  It has many cool features.  Use it for line busting, kiosk, or even as your main register.

And we have also updated our Android app with stability fixes and added new features to both IOS and Android.  

new feature Display Type

For both IOS and Android you can now choose what the primary use of coreSTORE will be.

Choose if you are using the app as a secondary display, as a price check station, or as the 4473 Kiosk.   For any mode that is customer facing we make sure any option that should not be accessible to the customer.

new feature Employee Permission Templates

You can now setup Employee Permission Templates.  This is a powerful feature that will allow you to setup multiple templates and then assign an employee to a permission template.  Anytime you change a template, all employees with that template will be changed as well.

Building employee templates can be done by clicking the Permission Templates menu option on the employee screen.

On the employee screen you can select which template to associate to them.

exciting! new feature Price Rules By Day and Time of Day!!!!

You can now setup pricing that changes based on day of the week, and even time of the day.  Imagine setting up a Happy Hour special at your store during the week to encourage your customers to visit during slower times.  This is a really powerful new feature coupled with some good marketing will hopefully help result in higher traffic and more sales!

improvement Receiving Screen Improvements

The receiving screen has been updated to show the total quantity received for the purchase order that is being received against.

The receiving screen will now show the list price of the item being received and you can now change the list price directly on the receiving screen.

improvement Customer Middle Name

You can now add the customer's middle name to the list of columns on the customer screen.  The customer's middle name will also be displayed on the sales screen.  You can also search for a customer by entering their first/middle and last name.

improvement Search for Customer by Driver's License

You can now search for a customer on the customer screen by entering their license number.

improvement Customer Display Logo

You can now specify a different logo for the customer facing display.

improvement Classes and Events are now Location Specific

When pulling up events and classes in coreSTORE the system will default to show only the classes and events available for that location.

improvement Bound Book Menu Options

Moved a couple of critical bound book menu options to the left side menu where it is more visible for users.

Bug Fixes

fix When clicking a customer's name after merging two customers all the transactions were not being displayed.

fix The system will prevent a user from entering the same gift card twice on a transaction.

fix Boundbook formatting issue fixed when printing the bound book.

exciting! We're finally here!

Hey everyone! We're finally here! Make sure to stop by if you're at the show and grab yourself a fresh cup of coreFFEINE!

Also, check out our trade show page for all of the latest updates and a chance to win a Point of Sale setup!

WHERE TO FIND US!

Welcome to the Show!

Okay, we probably have... But only because it's worth mentioning!

exciting! We are so excited for this expo in West Palm Beach and to meet those of you who are going to be there! If you attend this show be sure to stop by booth 523 and have a cup of coreFFEINE on us. Whether you're able to attend or not, stay tuned for updates from the show! Make sure to SUBSCRIBE to our YouTube channel for all of the updates!

new video Speaking of YouTube, we couldn't leave you hanging so we released EPISODE 3 of coreCAST with some great discussion on new updates to both coreFORCE and coreSTORE with some additional discussion on the 1st Amendment. This one's a bit quicker so grab a cup of coreFFEINE ☕ and give it a listen while you drive to work, take a shower, or clean your Glock. 

announcement important PCI COMPLIANCE

We just wanted to go ahead and remind everyone that per PCI compliance it is imperative that you do NOT have a generic admin user on coreFORCE that multiple admin users log in to and work off. Having a generic admin user like this opens you up to data breaches and this should be taken very seriously. 

If you need help on setting up additional admin users, please let us know by submitting a ticket to our Help Desk. 

improvement Text Expansion

The Canned responses dropdown in the orders dashboard can now be used for texts as well as emails. If you have a short email with limited HTML formatting, the system will automatically strip the HTML out of the email so it can be sent as a text. 

improvement Event Registration Report

Custom fields for contacts can now be added to the event registration report (things like driver's license number, etc.). Helpful for checking attendees in if you need to verify certain pieces of information.

new feature Tracking Icon

There is now a tracking icon next to the tracking number on the orders dashboard which will open the tracking page on the carrier's site to see the progress of the package.

improvement Placeholders

There is now a results table placeholder for the invoice payment notification email that gives the details of how much was paid against each invoice. 

%invoice_result_table%

Additionally, user type and code were added as additional placeholders for use in pages. 

user.user_type_code or user.user_type were added. 

new feature Added "Ship to Store Option" for Order Directives

This is used in automatic order processing controls. We added an option to make sure that any orders placed are shipped to directly to your physical store. 

new feature Add Facility Tags

You can now create and apply tags to facilities, similarly to how you create and apply tags to products. 

These tags can be things that describe what type of facility a particular facility is. For a gun range, you could specify that a particular lane has more advanced targeting or gamification technology. 

exciting! We hope you all had a very happy 4th of July.  We've been busy (as always) for the last few weeks working on various new features, improvements and of course bug fixes. What would software be without those pesky bugs🐛 ? 

First things first, though, make sure to subscribe to our YouTube Channel where you will receive new tutorial updates for both coreFORCE AND coreSTORE . We will also post replays of any webinars that we host here and perhaps the most entertaining industry podcast around: coreCAST! 

new video Check out our latest episode, Episode 2 for fun discussion on Coffee, Crypto, Aliens, and an overview of new updates. Additionally, make sure to comment for a chance to win another bag of coreFFEINE!

exciting! new feature Automated Closing Report Delivered Daily to your Mailbox

You can now receive a daily sales report for your store.  Head over to the Locations screen and enter the email address and time you would like to receive the report.

new feature Edit Sales Tax By Line Item

During a sale you can now override the default taxes associated with any given line item. Including the ability to remove taxes from a specific line item.

new feature Default Margin by Category

You can now specify a default margin/markup percent by category.

new feature Price Check Screen

We have had a couple of dealers that asked us to design a price check screen that can be used by their customers.   Here is a view of it:

We added a new security option so you can setup a user that only has access to the Price Check functionality which would allow you to setup a screen on the floor for customers to use without worrying about them accessing your system.

improvement Receiving Screen

When receiving from a previously created purchase order, we now clearly show the quantity that was on the original order, and how many have been received to date.

new feature Split the Bill

You now can optionally show buttons to split the payment by a quarter, third or half. To enable this option click on your Store Config, under Payment Types you will see a new check box: Enable Split Payment Buttons.   This will allow you to easily split the payment among multiple people (unless you have more than 4):

new feature Assemblies

Different from item kits, an assembly is an item you are "building", which has components in it. If you are a manufacturer you are familiar with the term "Bill of Materials", well this is what we now have.  You an define an assembly (the finished good), and specify what components/items make up the assembly.  You can then build assemblies and the system will properly deduct the components from inventory and add the quantity that was built of finished assemblies.  This all probably sounds a bit complex and if it wasn't 1:30AM, and I wasn't a major sugar high, I would record a video.  So I will promise you this - A VIDEO IS COMING!  SUBSCRIBE TO OUR YOUTUBE CHANNEL!

new feature Default Mailing List

You can now specify one more default mailing lists to add a customer to when adding a new customer.  This is for Mailchimp users, but will also apply to coreILLA - The Mailchimp KILLA!  COMING SOON!!!!!!

GENERAL improvementS 

• Clicking the customer name will now default to show ALL TRANSACTIONS when viewing the customer's history.
• Added a new security option for Selling Gift Cards, if a user only has this permission then all they can do is sell a gift card on the sales screen and will have no access to manage the gift cards in the gift card management screen.  This is an important security update.
• When selecting which Tags you want to show in the Inventory Summary By Category Report, the selected tags will also show up in the Excel.
• Added the ability to import/export the override tax field when importing/exporting items. 
• Added the markup and margin fields to the Items Import feature.

EXCITING! Firearm Transfers a WHOLE NEW WORLD!

We now have a streamlined method of entering a firearm transfer from another FFL. This is something that many of you have requested.  In this case I think a video is best way to showcase this new feature!  Let us know if you are excited about this feature, because we absolutely are.

Boundbook/4473/3310

new feature You can now email a copy of your FFL License.   To load your license visit the Location screen, there is a new option to upload your FFL License.  Once it's uploaded you can click the new menu option in the bound book.

new feature You can now designate inventory types that SHOULD NOT create a bound book record even if the item is serialized.  This is a great feature if you want to track your  optics by serial number but don't want to create a separate bound book for those.

new feature If there's no NICS response within 3 days (causing you to pick "NR" for Section C/Q.27d), the NICS Result bubble on the Manage 4473 screen will be displayed with double-asterisks (**). 

Rules:        
Q.27d = "NR" and Q.27e is unset: show "PROCEED**"
Q.27d = "NR" and Q.27e is "PROCEED": show" PROCEED**"
Q.27d = "NR" and Q.27e is "DENIED": show "DENIED**"
Q.27d = "NR" and Q.27e is "CANCELED": show "CANCELED**"  

improvement Added the ability to specify a waiting period by location, for customers who have stores in multiple states.

improvement Added a configuration option to prompt for password, if the waiting period is enabled.

improvement Modified Section E #33 to allow for a shortened FFL (X-XX-XXXXX) Number to appear instead of the full number by supporting the new "Use short FFL" store config option.

improvement Enhanced the left bound book menu to provide quicker access to the Manage and Fill Out 4473 screen.

bug fixes 

• Customer last names that contained an apostrophe were showing up truncated on the 3310 form.     
• Filing out 4473s manually was not getting firearms displaying on the 3310 PDF form.
• Fixed bug where canceled or denied 4473s were not showing 0 for the number of firearms transferred in Section A (although the PDF would say "ZERO").     

GENERAL bug fixes

• Fixed issue with entering a range of serial numbers containing a 0 at the start of the serial number.
• ECommerce manual sync (which you shouldn't have to run very often, if ever) will now properly assign the ECommerce ID to the item.
• Fixed an issue when updating item information from the online catalog.
• Fee based items were not calculating the price of the item when adding the item from the button grid.
• When doing a batch receiving, the lookup of UPC codes was not properly working, this is now fixed.

exciting! Happy Independence Day Weekend everyone!

This is such a great time of the year to celebrate the Declaration of Independence when the Continental Congress declared that the thirteen American colonies were no longer subject to the King of Britain, King George III. 

Did you know that the Congress had actually voted to declare independence two days earlier on July 2nd, but it was not officially declared until July 4th? 

At Coreware, we are proud of our country and proud to stand alongside so many great businesses and individuals who love our country and the freedoms that we get to enjoy. We sincerely thank you for your business and we sincerely hope you all have an incredible weekend.

improvement Book Days Ahead by User Group Using the Public Facing Event Scheduler

We made an update so that user groups will have priority if there is a conflict between setting the DAYS_AHEAD text chunk code for user group, user type, and no user group/type. This will allow you to give special permissions to certain users so that they can book out facilities further in advance than other users!

Please note that the Public Facing Event Scheduler can be used to book out any type of event or event to allow customers to set appointments and meetings. 

If you would like to learn more about how to set this up, and what it looks like, we have this series here where we explain how to set this up for a gun range in particular. 

improvement Additionally, we now have better Page Text Chunk Documentation directly on the page which will include the usable page text chunks for a particular page.

I hate starting this update not talking about the update, but some things in life are far more important.   Our friends at Ammoready need your help.  Eric Austin has a daughter who is only 3 years old and recently diagnosed with an extremely rare and terminal disease.  

There are many good causes out there, but this one truly hits close to home and the only way I can think of helping is letting all of you know about it, in the hopes of helping raise money that can be used to find a cure.   Give us a shout out here if you make a donation or even share the link on your own social media, we will ship you over some of our newest coreFFEINE, we have new bags with even better beans!  And thank you in advance with whatever you can do, even if it's just raising awareness.

This update has been in the works for the last three weeks.  Lots of small gems with many driven by your requests. There is a lot of great things coming soon, some of what you will see here are stepping stones and clues to what's coming!
