Quite often people who’ve been using agileBase for a while find that they’d like to use multiple browser tabs at the same time. For example, to load customer details in one tab and invoice lists in another. This doesn’t usually work unfortunately, due to information being shared between the tabs and the system getting confused about…

Administrators who use our test system can’t fail to notice a bit of a change – the colours have been inverted, meaning whites are black and blues are orange. It may sound a strange change, but the reason is simple – previously it was a bit too easy to confuse the two systems. System administrators…

Last August, we released a feature that lets people see the history of any record they’re editing. That’s really useful for audit trail purposes when you want to check the details of when a change was made, or roll back a mistake. However, change log only showed what data was changed to, not what it was…

agileBase’s facility to group data under headings has had a bit of an overhaul and improvement. You can now group your data whilst retaining the ability to sort and filter as per any normal view. To turn on grouping, go to the manage tab of a view, click ‘advanced options’ and select ‘style = headings…

Until now, importing data into agileBase has been an ‘administrator’ function that required use of the admin interface.

So for example, if you want to…

November has again been a busy month for developing platform improvements that all customer benefit from. Here’s a quick rundown of the major updates. Charting improvements charts now show numbers on them, useful for printouts or exporting charts can be printed and exported individually it’s now a lot quicker to flip between charts and underlying…

A lot of customers store business-critical or confidential data in their systems, so protecting access is very important. Today we introduce another tool in the data-protection armoury and we encourage all users to enable it. This facility it two-step authentication, sometimes called ‘two-factor’ authentication. The idea is that data is protected both by something you know…

Last week’s roadmap poll showed clearly that one thing that people would like to do is jump between parts of the system when editing data. For example when editing a contact, jumping to their organisation or address details. So that’s the first thing we’ve implemented. Next to each relation, there’s now an arrow that jumps…
