30th November - Fasthosts Password Problems
As many of you will be aware, due to a major security problem at Fasthosts they have had to reset everyone’s passwords to access all Fasthosts hosted websites. We have been resetting client's passwords and apologise for any inconvience caused during this period.

The good news is, we'll be doing it all over again on 13th December, as we have to reset all of your e-mail passwords too!


EABOSS HINTS AND TIPS:    
     

EABoss > HIPs active!
If you are taking on any 4 (soon to be 3 bedroomed) houses you’ll need to publish the EPC graph on your website and the property portals you upload to. EABoss can now create the graph for you (Address & Legal tab). All you do is enter the four values and press create, the graph becomes a “Room” with a heading of “EPC” and a picture of the graph for you to use on your details and on the website.

“Actions” in EABoss
We recently lost a sale to another software package (bah humbug) because we hadn’t told the potential user the one special thing they wanted!..... How you can configure EABoss to make one thing trigger another (Actions, on the Configure menu). The best way to explain how you can do this is to give you an example.

  1. By creating a “Confirmation of Instruction letter” you can make an ACTION that in 4 days time asks you to “Chase up the signed confirmation form”
  2. By creating that same “Confirmation of Instruction letter” you can make an ACTION that asks you to advertise the property 7 days after it was created.
  3. By creating that same “Confirmation of Instruction letter” you can make an ACTION that tells you in 50 days that the sole agency agreement is about to expire in 6 days and do you want to renew it. You can create Actions that are triggered by a particular letter, by an event such as viewings, or by a report such as a monthly vendor report.

EABoss diary – Use to see who has/hasn’t chased up “To-Do” tasks. Have you discovered the new tabs in the diary yet? If not open the diary, daily view and click on the tab “To-Do List”. You can then use the user and event tick boxes to show who has.... and more importantly who hasn’t been following up their viewings, offers etc. If you wish to update an event from the diary, just double click on it. Remember, tick events off as “Completed” to remove them from the To-Do’s. Note: to view completed tasks and diary appointments tick the completed box on the top left of the diary.

EABoss diary – Unconfirmed viewings – see at a glance which ones haven’t been confirmed with either the Vendor or the viewer.
Similar to the above, have you found the quick way to see which viewings still haven’t been confirmed with either the Vendor or the Applicant? If not open the diary, daily view and click on the tab “Unconfirmed viewings”. You will see all the future unconfirmed viewings (if there are any). The Y/N below the A or V indicate who it hasn’t been confirmed with. To update a viewing, just double click on it.

31st July 2006 - WINDOWS OPERATING SYSTEMS
End Of Support for Windows 98 and Windows ME (Millennium Edition)

From July 11, 2006 Microsoft will no longer offer support or critical updates for Windows 98, Windows 98 Second edition, and Windows ME (Millennium Edition). This means that those still using Windows 98 and ME could be more vulnerable to security risks.

As a responsible software house we do not test any products on operating systems that are not supported and maintained by Microsoft. Therefore new BOSS programs are only designed to run with Windows 2000 or XP.

Due to the increased security risks with running Windows 98 or ME we would urge all our customers to seriously consider upgrading to Windows XP. For further information please see the Microsoft website

Windows XP Service Pack 1
In addition Microsoft are also ending support for Windows XP Service Pack 1. Any XP users who have not yet upgraded to the Windows XP, Service Pack 2 can do so at no cost from the Microsoft website. We recommend that all customers keep their windows packages updated and regularly download any critical updates.
