Limited/Early Access Features & Enhancements

The features below are still in limited/early access. If you would like to have it enabled in your account, please reach out to our support team.

  • We have added a Credit Allocations download to the Invoices table. This feature works similar to the Payment Allocations download and shows which invoice(s) a credit note has been allocated to.
  • A “Teacher Student Note” feature has been added that allows you to enable a field on student profiles that can be edited by a teacher/tutor and viewed by the relevant student or family.

  • We have added a message about the Gmail and Yahoo DKIM and Return-Path requirement in applicable accounts.
  • The Postmark Verifications table has been updated to show DKIM and Return-Path statuses separately.

  • We have added a student name to the Stripe charge “Description” field for payments made through the Website Booking plugin.

Other Updates & Enhancements
