January Insight - Custom Fields
Using non-standard info in some aspects of your workflow? Try using custom fields. Custom fields are available in several areas of AroFlo, including on tasks, client cards, asset cards, projects, and task assets. There are several custom field types available, including a text box, date field, select and multiselect, documents & photos, and even a canvas field!
Here are a few examples for inspiration, but you can customise your own depending on your workflow needs. For more information, please see our learning resources below.

November Insight - set up Multi-factor authentication (MFA) for your users
Multi-factor authentication (MFA) offers an additional level of security for your AroFlo site. It requires users to enter a code obtained from an authenticator app (typically on their phone or tablet) before they can log in.
We recommend users with access to Site Administration and/or access to the Billing Portal are set up with Multi-factor authentication.
Managers and those with permission can enable MFA on their own user card in AroFlo Office via Manage > Users > select themselves as a user to open their user card. Site Administrators (who can view and edit other users) with the above permission can also enable or disable MFA for other users via Site Administration > Users > select user to open their user card.

July Insight - Request customer reviews via Checklist event messages
Did you know that you can trigger emails or SMSes via checklist items? More specifically, you can control when you want to send an email/SMS to your client asking them to review you.
In order to achieve this, set up a checklist item on your relevant checklist template(s) and set up a Checklist event message. You may need to create an email/SMS template as well. Whenever you want this email or SMS to send, simply trigger it using the relevant checklist item.
