RepairQ 1.5.3 release is now live! Here are some of the highlights:

• New Automated Notification System: customize SMS and Email notifications for each location that are sent out based on ticket statuses and purchase order statuses. For example, send out a notification when a ticket is “Ready for pickup,” or send out a “thank you” email 15 days after you close a customer’s ticket.
• Notification Queue List: You can now view sent, pending, and failed notifications. We also fixed a few issues that would cause the notification queue to hang (preventing future notifications from processing)
• Test Mode: This primarily affects new RepairQ users. We can enable a “test mode” for each site where you will have the ability to easily wipe out test data before “launching” RepairQ in your store.

Other minor updates and fixes. For more info, see notes below:
