07/30/2015 Upgraded the rest of the issue for Verizon customers. We had two programs sending out pager messages and only one of them was updated on 7/23. Now both are updated and Verizon customers and staff will get their starting times as a text message now.
07/29/2015 Added a question when pulling the Inventory Volume Cost/Retail Report to ask whether to show the average monthly sales or not. This gives the choice of whether or not to use the new feature added on 5/21/2015. In addition, instead of the invvc0.no file turning the report feature off altogether it simply changes the default on the question to No instead of Yes. This allows users with large inventory lists to choose to run the report with the averages (which does take longer) or not depending on their needs at the time.
07/24/2015 Made several changes to the Employee and Service Sorting. Under Maintenance -> Employee -> Switch Employee Order and Maintenance -> Service -> Change Service Order you will now see the current sorting whenever you go back to the section rather than having to resort each time you come back in. In addition, you can drag items that are already in the Sorted List to another spot in the Sorted List rather than having to move them back to the Actual List and then back into the Sorted List.
07/23/2015 Due to a change by Verizon Wireless text messages were not being processed at Verizon from Spa-Salon Manager. We have updated Spa-Salon Manager to the new format allowing text messages to be sent to your Verizon customers and staff. 
07/13/2015 Added the option to have text messages append the wording "Reply with 'c' to confirm." to the end of each text message. As long as customers aren't limited to 80 character text messages they should see this wording and if they reply with a 'c' then the salon's email account will have the reply there for an employee to check and manually confirm within the program.
