European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) compliance

Anyone one with clients in Europe will need to ensure compliance for GDPR before May 18.

1: Amazon's cloud platform will be backed by certification for the standards required and or having a separate uk based server should bring it closer.

2:Then prominent "opt" in boxes clearly labelled for consents and automation's to seek 12 month renewals to items such as marketing. You have already a means to enable us to opt out a client from marketing.

3: A feature to "part delete a client" - Archive (so still accessible)

4: Reporting of each user and searches/access to data logged/stored.

5: Alert of data breach

These are just a few i could think and no doubt has missed many considerations. Hope you are already working on solutions to enable us in Europe to continue with you. From what i understand the US is having a revised data protection policy too which will likely be closely built to the new standards being adopted in many places.

Fingers crossed, if you need access to more information on GDPR and what would be involved let us know.

Thank you! Joe.

When a ticket comes in via email from an employee of one of our business customers who is not yet established as a contact, your system automatically creates the ticket under the email address of the primary contact, causing us to reply to someone other than the person that submitted the ticket. This confuses the customer who is the primary contact and did not submit the ticket, causes the person who submitted the ticket to not receive a reply, and makes us look like idiots. I'm told by your support team that this is due to the employee's email signature containing the main business phone number which your system is parsing and attaching to the primary customer. Please stop automatically trying to parse email bodies and opening tickets under the wrong email address.

If someone wants that capability, they can use your inbound rules feature to do that.

If an email comes in from an email address that is not defined as a customer or a contact, it should be left as a lead so that we can decide to assign it to the primary contact or set them up as a contact.

I would like to see RepairShopr integrated with the Vonage Desktop Connect app. I have tested this with our vonage install and got this to work. Here is the routine I used.

Download the Vonage Deskptop Connect client to your desktop. I used Google Chrome and it worked.
Make a test call and make sure that you do not have pop-ups blocked.
Switch over to Repairshopr and go to App Center and click on the Free PBX integration. Generate a token for your company.
Switch back to Vonage Desktop Connect and go to the settings area.
In settings click on the Web Launcher tab.
In Web Launcher I used the following variables.
URL - I typed in "RepairShopr" (note: do not use the quotes)
In the box next to the name put this URL in minus the quotes - "http://uniquedomainname.repairshopr.com/api/callerid/?did=[NUMBER]&token=tokenfromfreePBX"
Now click the Add button. You should see the URL you just built in the box below the Insert button.
Check the box for Incoming Calls and then click save.
Test by making a call into the system from a customer record associated with you calling from a number on your record.

When performing a stock take, there are extreme inconveniences when trying to reconcile what WAS counted versus what RepairShopr is expected.

For example, RepairShopr is expecting a count of 24 items for our catalog item 'iPhone 6S Unlocked 16GB.' We have an actual count of 22 items. When you click the "Quantity (Details)" link, it takes you to a page of all the items you scanned.

The issue lies in attempting to reconcile what you have on hand vs what was counted. There is no way to do this all at once unless you either print each item label or write the serial number down one at a time. The "Quantity (Details)" link should have the serial number field present WITHOUT having to click the "PDF" button to view that ONE ITEM's serial number, rinse, repeat.

I can attach screenshots as well if needed documenting my idea.

Say I have an iPhone 5C I bought from a customer that is for AT&T. I buy it from them, do the refurb on it, use the parts, and then once the refurb is complete, it goes back into inventory. But say I found out that it can be unlocked later. I have it under the inventory item "iPhone 5C 16GB AT&T" but now I need it to go under "iPhone 5C 16GB Unlocked". There's no easy way to do that. I'd have to delete the item serial from the first inventory item and then manually type out the serial number under the second inventory item. And then I'd also lose all the refurb history, who I bought it from, etcetera. I could just rename the inventory item, but this wouldn't work when I have several items in stock for that inventory item.

There needs to be a way to easily move one instance of a product to another product without having to remove and then recreate it.
