Customer Invoicing

Easy books seems easy to use & quite neat, recently I purchased the Customer Invoicing for our account, syncing & Transactions. The Device I use is my iPad. I set all this up & paid for all the extras on behalf of my brother so he could use his iPad & I could monitor his entries & assist. I have since learned the purchases I have made (customer invoicing & possibly even transactions) are not working on his iPad. Does this mean he has to purchase these again to get them working on his iPad (i.e each device needs to make purchases for addons despite only managing one (the same) account? If so, I would have preferred to upgrade our MYOB software to work with IOS, this would have been a cheaper option, and this would also I mean I would not be happy with the fact I was not alerted to this prior to my purchase. I am not quite understanding the whole point of syncing if the purchases cannot be shared for the same account name.

   Hi Kym,

   Thanks for your kind comments.

   The syncing service is not trying to sync your purchases at all, it's only keeping your data in sync between devices. Apple manage all the actual purchases, and these are linked to your Apple ID that you use when making the purchase. As long as you use the same Apple ID, you'll find you can use the app on all your iOS devices, we're not charging for each one.

   The Easy Books for iOS app will allow you to use it on any of your "devices", by which we mean an iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch, and any iOS device that can purchase using in-app purchases from the iTunes App Store. If your brother uses the same Apple ID as you, he can the app on his iPad as well. He would just need to use the **restore** button on the add-ons screen to bring over the in-app purchases you made.

   I hope that helps,

   Mathew

   Hi Mathew, thanks for your reply, worked it out late last night thanks, I really do like this software coming from an accounting/bookkeeping background.

   Just food for thought, have attached two statements, one has been printed using 'statements' the other printed by recalling the purchase & then emailing. Please note on the later, there is no business letterhead & COPY restricts sup plied details in top right. It would be awesome to have function to be able put in logo, I have checked settings. The purchase function would be excellent if it naturally had built in Purchase Order (PO's) Function. This would accommodate businesses like Builders that are on site & need to send out PO's while on site. (ie PO'S could be an option for selection rather than Purchase & then convert to purchase one made.

   Cheers

   Thanks Kym,

   The intention with the purchase invoices was that it was a copy of a real invoice you've received from a supplier. But I take your point about adding support for POs, that sounds like it might be coupled with adding support for estimates or quotations.

   Thanks again,
   Mathew
