Reckon Product Ideas
Make a difference by sharing your ideas with the Reckon product development team. Your votes will directly influence the product roadmap and help guide our products future direction.

Please note all new ideas remain hidden from public view until reviewed by our team.


Announcement: September 2023

We are currently well underway building our next-gen user interfaces, starting with Payroll web and mobile (released), Invoices mobile (released) and soon, advanced Payroll, Reckon Mate enhancements, and Time web.

Where appropriate we'll add features from the Product Ideas Portal to both old and new interfaces, or, where new is replacing old, we'll add to the new range only.

Thank you for your patience - whilst we understand building new interfaces and products takes longer than adding a feature, we are certain the new designs will ultimately provide a better experience for all our customers.

Regards,
The Reckon Product Team

Ability to Find & Replace Text

Ability to Find & Replace Text

Like in Excel or Word the ability to Find and Replace text. Ability to Find & Replace in whole transaction, or if that cannot be done then the ability to Find & Replace in all line items.


Currently have to copy & then laboriously highlight and then paste the replacement text in each line separately in a transaction. e.g WE03Mar2020 to next week WE10Mar2020 for each line.

I often use template aka memorised transactions then amend for current transaction.

Would be useful in :

1. Cheque/Check Payments with multiple lines e.g Payroll noting the period paid

2. Customer Invoices, e.g change the month name in the description, especially if has multiples lines.

3. Supplier Invoices, e.g change the month name in the description, especially if has multiples lines.

4. General Ledger Journals

PS: a spell checker in this new ideas window would be good too. And for the Idea Management software mysteriously not noting the New Idea., pressed “Share Idea” and it just disappeared…

    Thanks for the feedback for a new feature.

    As for the ideas portal, we use a managed service by Aha, and being web-based you need to ensure you have spell check enabled on your web browser. If set up correctly you'll see spell checking as you'd expect (see example below) .

    As for seeing the idea straight away, we deliberately do not do this for obvious reasons (foul language, SPAM etc..). You will receive an email advising that our administrators check each post. Once reviewed we make the post live if it is acceptable. We've added some text to the portal home page to make this a bit clearer.
