Release 23.08 and BigChange Pay
Release 23.08 is our latest major release, and we added a bumper crop of functionality to our financial offerings.
This latest update:
- Allows users to create individual invoices for up to 100 selected jobs in a matter of clicks saving time and effort.
- The ability to change line item descriptions, codes, quantities, and tax codes in purchase orders after syncing with Xero was added in release 23.07. In 23.08 it’s the turn of Sage. No longer do you need to create a new PO to add a last minute part.
- BigChange Pay has been launched and is now live. Businesses of all sizes can take payments online, over the phone, and now on site when a job has been completed. Once the seamless onboarding process is complete, customers can preview the invoice before making payment. Click on the link below to find out how you can be paid quicker and set up BigChange pay.
Data As A Service
To celebrate the anniversary of BigChanges API, commonly referred to as WebServices we are pleased to announce the launch of two new products geared towards supporting developers and our data hungry customers.
Data as a Service which was announced at the pilot stage in September is now available to all customers who already use a BI tool to collect and share insights from multiple systems. If you are interested in combining your BigChange data with your other systems already housed in your data warehouse for a unified business perspective, please reach out to your customer success representative.

Developer Portal Launch
We predict that AI and system integrations are going to continue to be a focus in 2024, with the spotlight being shone on both very brightly this year.
At BigChange we want to facilitate the developer community to utilise the power of BigChange in any system that will support it. We have therefore released a brand new developer portal, housing documentation for our new API, and DaaS Dictionary.

Sales – A Day In The Life Podcast
Central to BigChange’s ethos is our leadership principle: “EARN TRUST”. BigChangers are not just listeners; they engage deeply, communicate with candor, and uphold respect in every interaction.
Nowhere is this principle more evident than in our dedicated Sales team. Their commitment goes beyond mere transactions. They are the torchbearers of trust, ensuring that every potential client is not only heard but also guided towards the best solutions tailored for them.
Their interaction doesn’t end when they have an order, they are constantly on hand throughout their life as a BigChange customer.
This month, we sat down with George from our Sales team. exploring the depth of his role and the profound joy of building trust and ensuring a customer’s success.
BigChange Movember JustGiving
November is the month when men around the world ‘grow a mo’ in raising awareness for men’s mental health, prostate cancer, and testicular cancer.
At BigChange we had over 40 team members take part in the tash challenge, and we couldn’t let an opportunity pass us by without documenting their hirsute efforts or celebrating their achievement in raising over £1,000. If you would like to contribute a link to our charity page is below.

Competition Time – Win a Mystery Prize
Last month’s competition winner of a mystery prize was George from Magic-man. A £25 Amazon gift card is on its way to you as we speak just in time for the holidays.
This month’s competition is something different and it’s disguised as a gift for you to keep little ones quiet for a while during the holidays. We want to see your drawings of something seasonal and job management related. For example, it could be a cozy fire being serviced by an engineer, or it could be Santa using a BigChange tablet to do a vehicle check.
If you are stuck for inspiration, we have created templates that can simply be coloured in for these examples and more. Links to the download are here: https://bigchan.ge/FestiveColouringBook2023
Please email your entry to competitions@bigchange.com by 18:00 on 5th January. The winner will not only be shown in our first newsletter of 2024 but win a mystery prize.
