Toolbox Tip - Get The Most Out Of Your Ascora Trial

May 13, 2017 - by Ascora Team

Set Up Your Company

Once signed up the first thing to do is to complete the setup of your Company under AdministrationCompany Details.  This is where you can upload your company logo, terms and conditions branding for your online enquiries and customer portal as well as entering any registration numbers (such as ABN, EC, PL, GF or Builders Registrations).  All of this just has to be entered once and will automatically flow through to the rest of Ascora.

 

Get Everyone Onboard

During your trial period there are no costs at all – so why not roll out the system to the key members in your team so they can give it a try!  New users can be added under AdministrationUsers.  Don’t forget to grant them access to the Web or Mobile Apps and set their permission levels.  Users can also be split into teams, such as Maintenance and Construction, to easily handle the various elements of your business.  Check out our training video for more details on how to add extra users at https://www.facebook.com/AscoraApp/videos/1515825211783252/

Import Your Supplies/Materials

You can import your list of common items purchased from your Suppliers.  Most will be able to give you a copy of your “Hot Items” or top 100/200 items that you can bring across into Ascora.  Under the Supplies area there’s an Excel template you can download – simply open the template and copy and paste in the data then you’ll be able to upload the whole lot into Ascora.

From the Apps and Web you’ll be able to select the items to be used on your Quote or Job.  You can also create Kits / Pre-Builds to save time for the common works you may do.  With true pricing in Ascora, you’ll get your job profitability at your fingertips at every step through the Job.
