Version 5.1.05 changes - Feb 2008:

Minor bug fix to correct some anomalies, like some of the report writer screens producing errors, automatic transaction causing double-up when extending, missing zip code in address of purchase order, and fixing a bug on the To Do Page, which prevented saving some messages; some cosmetic changes to a few of the input forms.
Sample data have had some product pictures added (check the CDs) and dates have been updated. 

Version 5.1.04 changes - Jan 2008:

New feature:
US County Tax option. This enables users in the United States to automatically set taxes based on the client's county or other tax authority. It also provides reports on taxes collected or taxes charged, by county. This feature is available for a small extra charge but cannot presently be tested in the trial version. It is explained in detail here.

Bugfixes:
as with all major new releases a few bugs are probably inevitable despite extensive testing, but we think most of these have now been found and fixed. Among those were Job numbering, adding new inventory, auto-numbering of invoices if 6 digits or more and other minor issues.
5.1.04.1 - fix for document numbering issue (when turned off it would not turn back on); on P/O product update screen added missing function to auto-calculate prices; 
added: new product entry from purchase order (on the fly). As on invoice and quote, type a new product with code and after a prompt will allow saving that product.
