A new release has been rolled out to all our customers. As usual it is free and you didn’t need to lift a finger.

New UK/International Banking Support

Three new financial institution connectors are now included in Saasu for everyone.

You can import transactions in bulk from your online banking.

This is provided as part of the wonderful (and free) Saasu Bank Integration Guarantee (BIG) to all customers. If you have a bank you would like to be able to import transactions from please let us know.

The new ones are -

• Lloyds TSB for all our UK customers
• Paypal.com personal accounts for all our US and international customers
• Paypal.com merchant accounts for all our US and international customers

Improved PayPal support

PayPal started in the US and now have 200m+ users in over 100 countries. They were acquired by eBay a few years ago but you don’t need an eBay account to receive or pay money with PayPal, you just need an email address and the simple features are free.

Saasu support 50 zones, so with the bank import announcement above we think we have at least one financial institution for almost everyone.

PayPal lets anyone receive payment with just an email address link on your invoice. Use saasu settings sale section.

PayPal merchant accounts enable additional features like simple but secure checkout links with your logo on invoices, web pages or blogs so your customers can bay with credit card or PayPal funds or even direct debit.

Payroll Improvements

Payroll processing has been upgraded to run faster for single payroll and bulk payroll processing. So you save just a little more time if you have one employee or hundreds.

Tax table updates for end of Australian tax year have also been completed and set up for all Australia zone customers on all plans in time for the end of financial year on 30 June.

Add contacts on-the-fly during bank reconciliation/import

Sometimes the first time you deal with a new customer is when they have dropped funds into your account.

Now you can add new contacts dynamically ‘on-the-fly’ from the bank import screen as you are looking at each transaction that has some in from your financial institution.

Safari speed freak

The Saasu labs team each did some informal tests across a range of functions recently and here are the results, fastest to slowest. 1st:Safari, 2nd:Firefox, 3rd:Internet Explorer.

So don’t just assume your browser is best, trying others might be worth the 10 minutes it takes to download and install.

Firefox version 3

For our customers using Firefox browser, a minor print preview issue in the latest version has been released.
