Paymo – KashFlow integration, beta testers needed
May 27th, 2009

Dear KashFlow users, we invite you to beta test the Paymo – Kashflow integration module. To test the integration module please login to Paymo and type in this link in the URL box:
http://your_company.paymo.biz/sync/ (replace your_company with your Paymo subdomain).

The Sync with KashFlow works in both directions.

Before the actual sync, the system will analyze data on both sides and will display a list of actions. Each action will have a checkbox that you have to check in order the action to be performed. By default, add and update actions will be checked, delete action won’t be checked.
Sync actions are listed in 2 groups: Paymo -> Kashflow, and Kashflow -> Paymo. In each group, the actions are performed on the destination side.
E.g. an add action in the Paymo -> Kashflow group will add the item in Kashflow.
Due to hierarchical structure of items (clients, invoices, payments), checking/unchecking some actions will affect its parent/child dependencies. Adding a sub-item will force add on the parent items. Deleting a parent item will delete all child items.
E.g. When checking an add invoice, add client for that invoice (if the client was not yet added) will be checked too.
When checking delete for a client, all dependent invoices and payment will be checked for delete too.
After a sync, our system will remember the associations between ids of items on both sides. This is used when checking for updates.
A ‘Link’ action means: we’ve detected items with the same name on both sides (kashflow and paymo) which were not sync’d before, and we’d like to register that as a link.

Latest updates
March 11th, 2009

As you can see we’re constantly making changes to the beta version and listening to your requests. We’ve decided to signup with getsatisfaction.com, a service that handles customer feedback and requests (from their site: “a direct connection between people and companies that fosters problem-solving, promotes sharing, and builds up relationships”).

In the beta interface you’ll notice a Feedback button on the right side of the screen, clicking it will popup the getsatisfaction widget that will allow you to post your feedback about Paymo. We’ll soon have three employees listening in to your requests and hopefully solving all the issues.

In other news:

  • a new windows client (ver. 3.0) available for download in the beta version.
  • project templates are up, still missing some functionality but usable
  • list/box view switch
  • a new layout of the reports section

If you have any questions or suggestions don’t hesitate to contact us.

Major updates – coming soon
January 16th, 2009

We’ve received a couple of emails from our users asking if we’re still doing ok, so this post is out to let everyone know we’re still alive n kickin’. It’s been quiet on the blog because we’re working hard on improving Paymo, going through tons of feature requests and maintaining the system. Although we did not “advertise” it on the site, because we think it’s common sense (but many of our users seem surprised that we answer each email) we offer free support for all accounts. If you have any problems please use the form on the website to get in touch.
