New Features - 11-6 Build 1

Welcome to Collect! Version 11.6 Build 1. This latest version has several new features and functionality, as well as several optimizations and enhancements to existing features.

Debtor Score Displayed In WIP List

A new column, Debtor Score, has been added to the WIP List. Users can now sort their WIP Lists using this new Score column.

Metafile Report Processing

METAFILE storage in Collect! has now been optimized to save space. Collect! will no longer store the bitmap information in the database. Instead, Collect! will now store a reference to each logo used in reports. This reference will be stored in a special external MRF file in the "styles\metaref" sub-folder. Collect! will create an MRF file for each different logo that is used in your reports. This new feature will minimize the amount of storage used in the Database whenever metafiles are created.

Notes Date Display

When you change your Default Date Format in Collect!, all the dates displayed in the Debtor Notes will be automatically updated to the new format.

Apply Client Settings On Import Options

A new switch called "Apply client settings" was added to Import Options in the Import module. This new switch enables you to apply Client Settings to newly imported debtors as you bring them into Collect!. When enabled, the client settings will be applied to newly imported debtors as they are when the debtors are created manually.

Set Timezone For Cosigners

A new report, Set Timezone DC, is shipped with the Collect! evaluation database to set the Timezone for all Cosigner records. A new control file, DCsetzone.ctf, is also included to set Timezone as new phone numbers are entered or modified on the Cosigner record.

The new Set Time Zones for Debtor, Cosigner and Phone Records utility may be downloaded from the Collect! Member Center.

Set Timezone For Phone Records

A new report, Set Timezone Phone Record, is shipped with the Collect! evaluation database to set the Timezone for all Phone records. A new control file,PHsetzone.ctf, is also included to set Timezone as new phone numbers are entered or modified on the Phone record.

The new Set Time Zones for Debtor, Cosigner and Phone Records utility may be downloaded from the Collect! Member Center.
