Lots of new features have rolled out in Spark over the past few weeks. We’ve been expanding our software development team so expect to see these updates more often!
More Flexible Event Rescheduling
Clicking reschedule on an event used to only give you the options to move the event 1 day, 3 days or a week in advance. A calendar will now open, giving you the ability to change the event to any date or time.
Add Multiple Agents to a Contract
You can now add multiple agents to a contract! This also means you can write PDFs with multiple agents and send contracts to multiple agents for signatures. Add multiple agents using the “External Agents” field when creating or editing a contract. These agents will then all be listed under the “People” section on a contract.
Sign Up Process Improvements
When adding new users to your team they will automatically receive an email with instructions on how to setup their account. If that email gets accidentally deleted or lost you can go to Settings → Team and click the three dots next to the team members name to resend their instructions.
Updated Contact Group List
Contact groups are now displayed in a list rather than boxes. This makes your groups easier to organize and more consistent with the rest of Spark.
Leasing Terminology
Companies using Spark for leasing will notice a lot of the terminology has been updated to better reflect the leasing industry. Price per sqft is now calculated annually for lease units.
Default Disclaimers
Companies and projects now have default disclaimers. These disclaimers will automatically be added to the bottom of all new email templates. This will save you having to add a custom disclaimer every time you create a template. If you do want to make one off changes you can still set a disclaimer for an individual template. To update your default disclaimer go to Settings → Email Settings.
Clearer Rating and Status Changes
Changing a contact rating or an inventory status now makes it very clear what you are changing the rating from and what you are changing it to. You can also click the history button in the top right when changing a rating to see any previous changes that have been made.
New Lender Exports
We recently added custom exports to Spark. Now you can also create an export from your company lenders list.
Working closely with our clients allows us to tailor Spark to your needs. Features like these come directly from your requests so be sure to reach out if you have any suggestions. We hope you enjoy this round of updates and can’t wait to show you some of the bigger features that are on the way!
Feel free to email us at support@spark.re with any questions regarding the new features or Spark!
