Project Phase
System offset input mode: You can now design a system by entering in a specific target offset % and receive back the approximate number of panels you should use based on the specific modules chosen and the size of the roof. Note that this does not result in a drawn array on the maps image, but it will give you a idea of how many panels to be targeting when you draw your system.
Add array edge lengths: You can now see the length of each edge of array edge to provide you with all information needed while designing your system

Request contract & credit application in proposal: Homeowners can now request a contract or credit applications for the specific quote they want to move forward with. This makes your sales process that much easier and faster, allowing homeowners to sign immediately without any additional work for the rep!
Enhanced the comparable values functionality in the proposal settings to allow you to set different values for different project types. This means you can specify your solar proposals to shows savings and cashflows out to 25 years, and your storage only proposals to shows savings and cashflows out to 10 years, ensuring all projects can be shown to homeowners with ideal numbers.
We have added a significant number of new metrics and re-organized these lists to ensure you can add any data you want to your custom templates easily and quickly.
