This is a great enhancement idea!  It is so time consuming to manually enter budgets, especially when you have multiple branches - let's upload the budgets instead and increase efficiencies!    Clink on the link below and support the idea!    We are better together!  https://feedback.youraspire.com/ideas/WAP-I-3988

Hey everyone! I am seeking input on the most beneficial reports that your firms run to evaluate purchasing. We would like to be able to see on the Work Ticket level estimated materials vs. actual materials and where we’re over and under budget. I’ve seen that Reports has a decent amount of reporting options, but I wanted to see what user-friendly reports others are using before I jump into the land of pivot tables and get lost!Additionally, for those who do NOT have their catalog synced up with a vendor’s catalog, what is your strategy for updating your catalog prices to be the most up-to-date if you use multiple vendors for rock/stone, plants, hard materials, etc.?

When I click on request a demo for PropertyIntel from the Aspire knowledge base it takes me to a page to sign up for a trial for PropertyIntel. I signed up for a trial, but I would still like a demo to see how the integration works. Could someone reach out? 

With the American Elm release out, we are motivated to use the retainage feature in Aspire. Any feedback on using that feature for the first time? Pros/Cons, tips and tricks? Anything for our implementation would be super helpful.

I would like to propose an enhancement change to have the hierarchy refer to the item price before it goes to the T&M Pricing Table and Category Markup Override, on the template, to charge the correct overridden item price. We perform a lot of irrigation and snow work with differing retail prices (not straight mark-up %) and this would help simplify and consistently bill Irrigation and Snow for T&M. 

How are you using the equipment module? Are you tracking more than vehicles and mowers? We are thinking about adding other equipment… blowers, edgers etc. 

Our state has some very specific requirements for our chemical logging that the chemical usage report doesnt capture. Does anyone else have this same problem? Any work arounds?

Looking for ways people track dig safe within Aspire that is easy to manage and visible to users not only from the field but from the office.

Does Aspire have provisions to pull up a contact via a phone number via a softphone and journal the call with conversation notes? Our 3CX phone system has the capability to launch a url with the callers phone number as well as a API if Aspire supports it. https://www.3cx.com/docs/crm-integration-guides/

Hi!We are hoping that there is a better answer for generating certified payroll. We utilize QuickBooks for accounting, and have been told that we must manually enter our hours into QB in order to generate the certified payroll. Obviously this is a significant time issue, since we are required to provide this frequently and it requires us to delete the hours sent over by Aspire and then re-enter them in the correct category. How is everyone else doing this?

Hello! I’m wondering what is the best way to handle a customer who was being billed per service for the first part of the season and then they’d like to pay ahead for remaining services. Adding a change order to the individual services doesn’t allow them to be Fixed Payment rather than Per Service. Adding a credit to that property or opportunity doesn’t automatically apply it to the next generated invoice either so billing staff won’t know that the future invoice doesn’t need to be sent because it doesn’t tell us anywhere during invoicing that an opportunity has a credit balance within Invoicing Assistant. Is there any way to create a future invoice for a service that hasn’t been completed? What would you do in this situation?  Thank you for any tips or tricks! 

I am looking for a video that covers the basic navigation of Aspire for new users. I didn't see any in the knowledge base but perhaps I’m overlooking it. 

Hello. I have a small issue with changing the sales rep on an ongoing maintenance contract. My company recently hired a new sales rep, and we will be handing over some accounts from the other sales reps. The issue I am having is that doing this will interfere with the commission report. When I change the sales rep, all past invoices are updated with the new sales rep. I would love it if there was a way to split this and keep old sales rep on past invoices while putting upcoming invoices to the new sales rep. What I do is, I have to cancel the current contract and renew it under the new sales rep for the report to show accurate information. Just trying to see if there is anyone else with the same problem, and if so, what workaround have you found.Thanks!

Is there a clean way to review all work ticket notes that were completed in a given period?
