    This new integration, which is automatically included if you've got the aGora.Connect extension, allows you to create WhatsApp groups and fill them with participants, either choosing the participants manually (among your students, customers, etc.) or using one of aGora's course groups as a base for the WhatsApp group, using its students/customers/teachers as participants. In order to use this integration, you must register an account with the Whapi platform.

  • NOVIDADE Added an option to the Control Panel that allows the user to set if, when enroling students in course groups, the maximum capacity of sessions should be taken into account.

  • NOVIDADE Data update process changed so if a course group was to be closed on the current day, the process does NOT immediately end it. The process will only close the course group the following day, keeping the group active for its last day.
  • NOVIDADE Added option of sending an e-mail/SMS to the student/customer/enquiry on the following data queries: Agenda events with linked student, Agenda events with linked customer and Agenda events with linked enquiry.

  • NOVIDADE Added new batch process Duplicate tasks. It will create duplicates for the selected tasks, allowing you to change their start and due dates.
  • CORREÇÃO Bug solved: Whenever an expense was paid, the payment method always defaulted to Cash. Now, whenever there's more than one possible payment method created, the software won't default to one, forcing the user to choose the appropiate one. If only one payment method exists, the software will always default to that one.
  • CORREÇÃO Bug solved: Whenever sending an aGora report (contract, invoice, bill, incoming payment, etc.) via e-mail, if the selected e-mail template already had attached files and the user chose to edit the e-mail subject or body before sending, those existing attachments were not included in the final sent e-mail. Now, they will always be sent along with the report in PDF format.
  • CORREÇÃO Bug solved: The Batch students attendance (send PDF by email) batch process locked up and never finished properly. Now it does.
  • CORREÇÃO Changed the student selection process for the pre-sale/pre-enrolment data windows. Whenever an existing student was selected, the pre-enrolment or pre-sale's student-related fields were not properly filled in with the selected student's data. Now they are correctly filled in.
  • CORREÇÃO Bug solved: when creating a new online offer for enrolments, if the control panel's default payment option was not "Periodic payment" or "Payment in one or more instalments", an error ocurred. No longer.
  • CORREÇÃO In SQL Server-based setups, the loading process for the students' list and advanced management windows has been changed so the student picture does not slow the data load.
  • CORREÇÃO Bug solved: When calculating the student's attendance in its results in parts' reports, the attendance of ALL of the students' sessions was taken into account, instead of only those of the session linked to the results. Now it's calculated properly.
  • CORREÇÃO Bug solved: In SQL Server-based setups, an error ocurred when editing a student's data in the Birthday data query. It has been corrected.
  • CORREÇÃO Bug solved: On the Agenda events window loading process. When loading the Student ID, Customer ID and/or Enquiry ID field caused the next time loading that window to throw an error. It has been solved.
  • CORREÇÃO Bug solved: When sending contracts in bulk via e-mail, the PDF was always sent to the customer even if options were set so it was sent to the student.
  • CORREÇÃO Bug solved: When creating an enquiry, the Employment situation dropdown menu always showed every option, even if inactive. Now it will behave as set in the Control Panel.
  • CORREÇÃO Bug solved: When opening a course in edit mode when in the Courses by course category and Courses by course type data queries, an error ocurred. It has been corrected.
  • CORREÇÃO Bug solved: An error ocurred on SQL Server-based setups, when the user is prompted for the SQL Server login data. If you closed the window via the X corner button (instead of via the Cancel button), the login data saved in the system's registry to speed up the process was lost, so the next time the software was booted up, no saved data was shown and forced the user to input it manually again. Now the X corner button acts the same as the Cancel button and no longer loses the saved data.
