You can read more about this here.

Products can now be set to keep track of their stock. When you do this, a stock level will be kept and adjusted for each product as you sell them. You can trigger alerts when a stock level is low or even prevent products from being sold when their stock level reaches zero. You can use this to keep track of when you need to restock a product or to limit how many of those products can be purchased at a time. For example, if you have 20 lockers and you sell those as recurrent products or plan add-ons, you can now make sure no more than 20 of them are requested at a time.

· 15 December 2018
Contract Terms: In addition to the existing cancellation policies to enforce a notice period in days for each contract, plans can now have a default term period. New contracts for those plans, created from the administration panel, based on proposals or when applied to online via your members portal, will use this period as a default term. The term of a contract will then define a period of time during which the contract cannot be cancelled by the member. We have also added a new type of reminder to trigger based on this date.

Support Access Notifications
· 3 August 2017
Support Access Notifications: as the team at Nexudus grows, we want to make sure we are on top of who in our team has access to your account to provide you with support. To this end, we will now create a dedicated admin user account when accessing your account, named after the person who is helping you. We will notify administrators in your account when we do so and ensure this account is removed when the job is done. If you want to see who is currently an admin in your account, you can use this link.
Instant Notifications
· 29 July 2017
Instant Notifications: the community board tries to get notifications about new messages as relevant as possible so members don't get bombarded with alerts and push notifications about items they may not be interested. The daily digest system works well to keep notifications to a minimum but, on occasion, members may want to push a message to the rest of the community right away. This is now possible using the "Instant delivery" option available when you start a new thread either as a member or from the admin panel.
Notifications
· 25 July 2017
Notifications Infrastructure: you will notice that the notifications in the community board, direct messages and visitor notifications are much more responsive now. Notifications and push messages are delivered using a new dedicated infrastructure which means they are delivered quicker, more consistently and at specific times of the day. For example, the daily digest will be sent within minutes of 8am your local time.
Tours
· 20 July 2017
Tours: visitors coming for a tour are now registered as such in the list of visitors. This triggers a dedicated tour confirmation email which you can edit independently from the visitor registration confirmation email. Tours are also displayed in the booking calendar, marked with a compass icon.
Floor Plan Locks: for those of you with a large number of private rooms and offices with electronic locks controlled by Nexudus, you can now easily map access groups in DoorFlow and Salto to specific floor plan items, which means you no longer need to create different plans and time passes to grant access to different offices.

Simply enable "On Visitor Registration" in the "Notifications" tab for a user.
Transaction Fees
· 5 April 2017
Transaction Fees for credit and debit card payments are now calculated based on the exact payment method used at the moment of paying for a specific invoice.

Drafts, Contact Bookings and Team Info
· 27 March 2017
A few quick updates which will hopefully make your life easier :)
Draft Invoices: is now possible to create invoices as drafts. Draft invoices are ideal to submit quotes or proposals as they have no financial effect in any of your reports and have a parallel numbering sequence. You can easily convert a draft into an invoice.
Bookings for new contacts: traditionally, making a booking for a brand new contact would mean you had to create the contact first and then head to the booking calendar to make a booking. It is now possible to create a contact right from the new booking form.
Team Information: the general list of members and contacts displays now the team each member is in. You can access the details of the team right from the list as well as quickly filter the list to display only that team.
Help Desk
· 25 February 2017
Help Desk Improvements: the help desk modules just received a much-needed update. You can now create departments to categorize different types of requests and channel them to the right members of your team. Members will now receive updates via email when new comments are added to a request and they can also reply directly from their email. You can also link departments with "tasks lists", starting a workflow and notifying and assigning tasks to several people in your team when a new message comes in to a department. You can read more about these new features here.
ReCaptcha 2
· 27 January 2017
ReCaptcha v2: those of you who use the built-in contact page have probably noticed an increase on spam activity coming from the contact form on that page. We have upgraded to version 2 of the Captcha service protecting that page which will help considerably reduce spam messages. If you are using a custom domain for your Nexudus space website, make sure you get your own keys and configure them here.
Auto-Cancelling Plans
· 22 December 2016
Auto-Cancelling Plans: you can now create new plans that automatically cancel after a number of renewal cycles. For example, you can create a plan that gets invoiced monthly but that automatically stops after 3 months. This is ideal to support trial or promotional plans that force members to either choose another plan or cancel their subscription before the promotional time ends. You can also use this feature to stop plans from renewing automatically. You can enable this feature by typing the number of cycles in the field "Cancel after # Renewals" in the details of each plan.
