Copy & Attach -- Very Cool New Feature!
  • Copy any file, picture, or sound wave from Windows Explorer or MyComputer and click on the binder clip in Book-It 2000 and attach that document to that record.

  • You can save all of the song lists, photos, and sound clips for your artists in the artist record in Book-It 2000.

  • Do you copy returned contracts?  Now you can save and attach the copies to the corresponding contract in Book-It 2000!
Global Names --
  • Now allows you transfer names between any module!

    Allows you to "orphan" names - where the person no longer belongs to a specific company or record, but allows you to keep their information.

  • Also added is telephone extension.

  • We've also added the ability to "assign" functions by module for each global name.
Monetary Posting -- 
Aligning for our next release we will have an online Quick-Books interface. Plus, numerous changes related to monetary posting.
  • AFor Bk2 3.3 we've added check box to update the date that the contract was received, at the same time posting the deposit.

  • Added Applied Commission Process. Transfers monies due to artists, to monies owed for commission - from a new selection screen.

  • Split Artist Advance/Artist Due field into to two different sets of fields for easier processing review.
Transfer Module Records --
  • Can now transfer module records.  
    For instance, if a "data base record for agencies" should actually be in Producer/Buyers module - you can now transfer the entire data record and all related global names to the new module.

  • Enhanced Global Name Search:
    Added new search capabilities in the global name listing.  Can search by last name, first name, and/or company name.
SIS - Single Item Search --
  • The Single Item Search (soon to be referred to as "Query Builder") queries can now be applied to any of the modules associated with the Single Item Search.
Contract Engagement Privacy Settings --
  • Changed the engagement type assignment to display "PUB"/ Public setting.  If the setting is N, then when itineraries are built for the public, any engagements with N type will be excluded from the Public Itinerary.
Itineraries --
  • Added the ability to email out the itineraries from BK2 as well as perform export of PDF and RTF documents.


Contracts -- 
  • Additional Provisions.  If your company uses unlimited Additional Provisions feature, spell-check has been added to spell check the selection.
Other Visible Changes -- 
  • Merge PDF reports. Can merge 2 or more PDFs into one PDF, if emailing out.

  • When printing engagements, all related documents (i.e. images, documents, multi-media ) are all displayed with the contract  printing - so that it can be attached (if emailed from EBT).

  • Changed the "look" of the contract print panel to more efficient.

  • Removed the Export / Email buttons from the Print Preview panel and replaced with a single drop down selection box.

  • Added the ability to display a yearly calendar and monthly calendar. Interface was also updated.

  • For artists - in preparation for the Artavail Web update - a web control panel has been added.  Release 3.4 will complete this new update.
Behind the Scenes (not so visible changes) --
  • BOD now deletes all blank global name records that may have been created by either import routines, auto-add routines - or insufficient data.

  • No More Crystal Reports:  With 3.3 release all EBT products all free of Crystal reports.  *Please note that if you had customized reports - using Crystal Reports as the basis for the those reports - they should have already been updated. 

  • Additional accounting and database changes have been implemented so that the implementation to Quick-Books (in 3.4 release) - can be accommodated.
