Group Budget by Custom Fields

Organize budget items by custom fields for a more structured view of your project's financials. With a custom field set as a pick list or text field, items can be grouped and nested under labeled groups for easy reference. For example, grouping by a "Trade" field clusters related items—such as electrical, plumbing, and foundation costs—into clearly defined sections. Use this feature to organize your budget in various ways, like vendor, item category, room/area, order status, or item status, providing an organized and efficient approach to tracking budget details across every phase of your project.

Easier Customer Payments

Paying invoices is even easier for your clients with new payment updates! Now, customers paying an invoice on JobTread (via Stripe) don't need to create a password, removing a common barrier and simplifying their experience. However, they still have the option of creating a password if they would like to save their payment methods for future payment.
If they choose to save a payment method, it is securely stored and specific to each user, displaying only on documents linked to the same customer account they were saved under, ensuring seamless and secure payments every time!
