Updates from September 2020 to January 2021
Let’s take a look at the latest edition of what’s new in Indecab.
1 - One click, send many booking requests!
With this update, you now have the ability to send a booking request for a single duty to as many associates as you like. The first one to accept the booking request would get it. The booking request would disappear from all other associates who have not accepted it.
To allot a booking to multiple network associates click on the allot button and then click on the ‘Send to Network’ button - select a single supplier, multiple suppliers or select all suppliers and send the request.
2 - Ability to store Supplier bank details
Go to Masters - Suppliers - add/edit supplier - scroll down and you will see the option to add the supplier’s bank details. You can add multiple bank details by clicking on the ‘+’ sign.

We've redesigned the way you add vehicle expenses. The most notable changes are,
Select garage
Ability to select multiple expenses in one vehicle expense entry.
Ability to mark an expense as paid
4 - Ability to hide letterhead, billing items, and allowances while printing a completed duty slip.
We have updated the print setting for printing a duty slip from the ‘View Duty slip’ section. You can now choose if you want a duty slip to be printed with or without the letterhead, billing items, and allowances while printing the same buy using the checkboxes in this section.
To print a completed duty slip - use the small gear icon/right-click on the completed duty and click on view duty slip. Once the pop-up screen opens - tick the hide letterhead check box to print without your letterhead and click on the print.
