Create HTML and form letter merge tags for IBY login username and password
Allow IBY Username and Password to be variable data fields for emails.
15 votesThe clients InspiredByYou login data fields can not be setup as data fields since the clients can reset the password, and that reset password does not get updated in Spectra / myStratus.
The first time you upload a client Session to InspiredByYou, you can use the data fields you setup in Maintenance / Preferences / InspiredByYou Preferences – Company Tab – UserName and Password.
Example: If you set up the User name as Client Email, you would insert the Data Field Client – Email.

Time slots -When one online time slot is scheduled, disable other Time slots in that same time frame
We offer several different session types, in a range of time frames. It would be helpful if, for example, once a session is booked for the 3:00-4:00 hour, all other time slots for that resource in that time frame could be disabled, instead of automatically allowing the conflict. The fact that this is not an option currently makes it impossible for us to allow two of our session types to be booked online.

When Selecting "Clients" in the top tool bar
Activate the cursor in the Search box automatically. 99% of the time, I'm searching by Last Name, and having to place the cursor in the search box is one extra step. No matter what is in the "Search By" box, the cursor should be activated in the search box.

Online Booking - Provide Main Categories with Session Types as Sub Items
This idea was posted before and was closed for some reason before its completion.
We need to update the online booking experience with StudioPlus to be more user friendly. One way to do this is to have "Categories" for the Products and Services bing offered. In our case, we would set up the following categroies:
Baby Portraits
Child Portraits
Family Portraits
Executive Portraits
Senior PortraitsThe sole purpose of each of these categories is to serve as a link to the actual session types which can be scheduled. Right now, we would have to list a dozen or so different…

A couple of extra custom fields
There is space in the Client - General tab for two more fields at the bottom of the middle column. If they were custom fields, it would allow a bit more space for those of us who need to keep a lot of repetitive data.

Email invoice to client using form letter with invoice attached.
We email invoices to our clients. Currently we use a form letter in the body of the email. We then attach the invoice that we earlier exported. It would be helpful if we could choose our form letter and to attach the invoice in one step.

You can do this via the Form Letter Properties. You want to select the option to “Auto-Attach a copy of the invoice when emailing or using as a Contract”.

Remove formatting rules from data entry fields
A couple of examples as well as someone's recent suggestion regarding auto correct, when typing 2 consecutive capital letters as a first name it reverts the second letter to lower case (workaround is inserting a space between letters, also when entering a hyphenated name it reverts the first letter of the second name to lower case (again the workaround is to insert unnecessary spaces)

Online Scheduling - Have Categories for Session Types
Presently, the only way (at least from what I have been told) to organize the order session types appear online is through the session types table (by moving them up or down).
This creates unnecessary confusion for the end user, especially when the studio offers senior, baby, family and business executive sessions.
This can be partially resolved by adding a field for "category" for each session type. Then, once the category is assigned ("Seniors, "Babies", etc.), the session types coiuld be grouped on screen.
If you want to see how to handle this, take a look at Acuity's online appointment…

implement a mobile credit card reading solution as soon as possible.
We would like to use a portable card reader that we can carry with us to events and use in different locations in the studio, eliminating the need to go to a workstation.

We have now completed the integration for both Genius Handheld and Genius Mini (Mobile) with the myStratus Desktop and Spectra software. In the coming months, we will also complete the integration of Genius Mini (Mobile) with the myStratus mobile app to give you a truly mobile credit card solution, not requiring the presence of myStratus Desktop.
