We are excited to announce a significant upgrade to the iLab billing module, now available to all users. This release focuses on enhancing the user experience with improved workflows and performance optimizations. Here are the highlights of the latest update:
Simplified Billing Event Creation
Our revamped billing event creation workflow is designed to streamline your processes, allowing for quick setup with predefined parameters. You can now initiate billing events swiftly using pre-filled fields such as end date, event name, charge types, and invoice grouping, which are customizable to meet your specific requirements.
- Charge Review: The "Review Charges" button allows you to verify all charges before processing, ensuring complete control over billing accuracy.
- Real-time Charge Loading & Editing: Eliminate delays in your workflow. Charges now load dynamically, and you can edit them in real time, facilitated by a new progress counter that keeps you informed throughout the process.
- Progress Bar: A visible progress bar on the "Billing" tab provides an easy way to monitor the status of your billing events, enhancing transparency and predictability.
User Interface Enhancements
With the integration of Semantic UI, the iLab interface now offers a fresh, clean look that is not only more aesthetically pleasing but also easier to navigate:
- Optimized Layout: We've improved the page layouts to enhance navigation and user interaction.
- Terminology Updates: We've updated field labels for clarity, such as changing "End Date" to "Include Charges Up To."
Centralized and Institutional Billing Enhancements
Handling bulk actions has become more efficient with our updated modals, now featuring Semantic UI, progress bars, and clear success indicators, streamlining processes such as revalidating billing files and merging drafts.
Backend Performance Improvements
For those managing large datasets, you will experience significant efficiency gains due to optimizations in our billing revalidation process, designed to save time and reduce the workload on your systems.
