Core Updates
Integrations
Avalara Tax Integration
Automate Sales Tax and Use Tax calculations with the new Avalara integration:
Automatically calculate Sales Tax during estimating and invoicing to improve tax accuracy.
Accrue Use Tax on Purchase Receipts based on vendor configuration, enabling you to record vendor tax liabilities without manual calculation.
To enable this feature, contact your Customer Success Manager (CSM). This integration requires specific configuration and an active Avalara subscription.
Invoicing
Invoice File Name Update
Beginning with version 6.29, Aspire will remove the “#” symbol from system-generated invoice PDF file names.
For example: Invoice#12345_ → Invoice_12345
This change does not affect invoice numbering within Aspire, only the PDF file naming convention.
This update improves compatibility with external portals and cloud-based document management systems that restrict special characters in file names.
If you rely on automated workflows, parsing scripts, or downstream systems that reference the “#” symbol in invoice file names, review your configurations prior to production rollout to avoid disruption. Contact your CSM with any questions.
Early Access
The following features are part of Aspire’s Early Access program. Early Access allows you to test new functionality before general availability and provide feedback.
To request access, contact your CSM.
Invoicing
Visit Note Images on Invoices
Give your customers visual proof of completed work using images from work ticket visit notes – without showing visit note text.
Make space for images in your invoice templates with new Web Report Designer fields.
