New Features

Welcome to Collect! Version 13.7. This latest version has several new features and functionality, as well as several optimizations and enhancements to existing features.

The full revision history is available to Members via the Member Center.

Display And Environment

Optimized the loading of the collectcfg.ini files.

Added Database Logging to trace deadlocks. This requires users to open Collect! with "/txu" in the startup options.

Rewrote the Group button navigation to use standard internal calls, so navigating Group Members will now invoke the same pre and post edit logic as the main Debtor's OK, Next, and Prior buttons.

Added the ability to sort Client Debtors by Listed date descending.

Contact Management

Added "Include in Client Portal" to the contact plan form.

Report Writer

Optimized importing of Reports.

Increased the size of the File Name field on the Report Options form to 255 characters to match the File Name field on the Print Report form.

Added the ability to print to alternate addresses in Letter Service.

Added “@apppath” to the report commands that will return the Collect! root directory.

Importing

When using @d in the Default Value field on a Field Specification form, we are now checking the Import Map's global date format, so you don't have to specify the date format on the field level.

Added a check box to the Import Field Options form called "Exact Match" which, if checked, will use an exact match on Must Equal Default Value instead of the default of partial match.

Payment Processing

A rewrite of this module is in progress.

Credit Bureau Reporting

Added an option to the Credit Bureau Setup form called "Force Age Out" which, if populated, will automatically set accounts to age out after the specified number of years. The checking processed in set in the Debtor Recalc and CBR Metro Reactivation process.
