“Basecamp-Smasecamp! I wish Freshbooks would add some simple functionality to REPLACE basecamp — FB knows how to run a GREAT business, and I’ve had it with 37S!”

I’ve been waiting for a few years now for FreshBooks to add a few simple features (like htm; links in support tickets) to the support ticketing module.

FreshBooks, you are so close to comlete awesomeness, why can’t you just go a bit further?

I almost get the feeling you are afraid to step on 37S toes.

Would REALLY like the see packing slips available for print, and the integration of quickbooks / simply account.

Thank you.

i.e.

$100 + 100EURO + 50,000THB
= 58,000.00 THB or $1,658.00 or 1,289.00 EURO

When you now have 3 customer which need this product – one in US, one in Germany and one in Thailand and you need to present the accounting to subdevisions and Tax Offices in these countries too you get crazy! – our own accounting is in $ – so

58,000.00 + 1,658.00 + 1,289.00 = 60947 in Freshbooks
in other words depending on the global currency settings this is
$ 60,947.00 = 60,947.00 EUR = 60,947.00 THB in Freshbooks!

This is the WORST accounting we ever had! and as good as Freshbook is for billing – it is ONLY usable for the billing but totally unusable for accounting at all!

The result we would need is that we can insert an EXCHANGE rate PER Project!!! as exchange rates are changing over and over. Than the Exchange rate multiplies with our Accounting BASE Currency.

i.e

$1 = 35 THB
1 EUR = 45 THB
1THB = 1THB

our result would now look like

50,000.00 THB + 1,658.00 USD * 35 + 1,289.00 EUR =
50,000.00 THB + 58,080.30 THB + 58,005.00 THB =
16,6085.30 THB

To implement such a feature is really not difficult as you only would need to add some currency converter fields into your invoicing features.

Make a new (Currency setting page PER INVOICE!! as exchange-rates are changing)
Here the Freshbook owner can define what I just wrote above.
They need to define a GLOBAL currency
They need to define Exchange currencies (incoming) with their RATES (matching with the global one)
They need to define Exchange currencies (outgoing) with their RATES (matching with the global one)

Now when a contractor sends you a bill in $ (i.e. Contractor Currency) but you account in THB (GLOBAL Currency) all rates get converted directly with the current project and invoicing periode based exchange rates.

To make it easier for Freshbook users integrate a exchange rate converter in an exchangerate view, but also in a (monthly) overlook (graphic) Now the Freshbook owner can decide how he will calculate his rate.

To make it even more Freshbook User friendly define also a GLOBAL Exchangerate setting and a simple buttom on each INVOICE which enables the Freshbook user to REUSE the Global or also to REUSE the Settings from the previous Invoice.

BIGGEST BENEFITS FOR ALL OF US WHO USE FRESHBOOKS
ALL statistics would show up in our GLOBAL Currency
ALL sums would be added in our GLOBAL Currency
ALL billing/invoicing would be a full feature and fully usable Accounting replacement!
BEST OF ALL – Freshbook would be able to talk to TAX Departments in different countries to enable Freshbooks as direct Applications to send your whole TAX stuff with one click i.e. to the Thai Revenue Department in THB or for another company to the German Finanzamt in EUR.

This would save a lot of paper, reduce lots of errors filling in same data many times in many different tables only to get your tax stuff done. It would promote and support paper and travelles GREEN Development and much more.

Freshbooks would be the killer application on THE ONLINE accounting, billing, invoicing market – people would simply forget about all other programs!

If you would need help to implement this we would be happy to assist you and we will afterwards be able to bill you even in CDN Dollars – Keep your heads up as you did a great Job already which only laks a very essential feature! Get in contact with us! You would support Green Development in ICT Innovation Paradise Phuket with a very affordable rate or even longterm partnership!
