June was a big month for me since I started working on Invoiso.
I did not just add things. I made it better for businesses that use Invoiso every day. I made it more flexible and reliable.
Here is everything that is new.
๐ New Features
๐ฅ๏ธ Multiple Dashboard Layouts
I know people work in ways. So I added three layouts for the dashboard:
Classic
Bento
Simple Feed
Users can change the layout from the bar.. People who already use Invoiso will see a message so they do not miss this new option.
๐ Executive PDF Template
I made an invoice template that looks really good.
It has:
A vertical bar on the side
A special section for the company and customer
It is easier to read
It works with the colors the user chooses
๐จ Custom PDF Theme Colors
Invoices do not have to be blue
Users can choose any color they want for their invoices from the settings page.
It is a thing. But it makes invoices feel more personal.
A6 PDF Support
A lot of people asked for this.
Invoiso now works with A6 paper. It makes everything the right size:
The words
The margins
The space between things
It is great for printing invoices and receipts.
โ๏ธ Signature Support
Businesses can now add their signature to invoices.
They can put it on the left or the right.
The signature shows up above the code and bank details.
๐ฐ Previous Balance Carry Forward
If a customer owes money the invoice can now show how much they already owe.
This makes it easier to send bills without having to change the invoice.
๐ฑ๐ฐ Sri Lankan Rupee Support
I added the Sri Lankan Rupee to Invoiso. It now shows the symbol.
๐ถ Euro Symbol Improvements
The Euro symbol now looks on all invoice templates.
I checked all the currencies to make sure they look right.
โ๏ธ Cloud Foundation
I started working on the version of Invoiso.
I also added a field for the tax number in the company settings.
โจ UX Improvements
I made a lot of changes to make Invoiso better.
A switch to show the quantity in the Compact template
The save buttons now show when they are working
The logo is in a spot
The margins on the invoices are better
The templates are more consistent
These are not things. But they make Invoiso feel more polished.
๐ Bug Fixes
I fixed a lot of problems.
A warning when you try to leave a page with an invoice
Some crashes
Some problems with tax calculations
A problem with the database
The reports page not showing the invoices
Some problems with the signature and templates
Some other problems with the interface
What I Learned
The biggest thing I learned is that small changes can add up.
Things like the save buttons working right. The invoices looking good do not get a lot of attention.. They make a big difference for people who use Invoiso every day.
I also learned that making invoices work with paper sizes is harder than I thought.. It makes the code better and easier to work with.
What is Next
I'm currently working on:
- โ๏ธ Full cloud synchronization
- ๐ More business reports
- ๐ฑ Better mobile workflows
- ๐จ Additional PDF templates
- โก More customization options
Every new thing I add makes Invoiso a better tool, for businesses.
If you are building a SaaS or Flutter application I would like to hear what you did this month.
Happy building!
