Buying goods in one unit (such as kilograms) and selling them in another (such as bags)?

You can now automatically manage unit conversions in Refrens:

With Units of Measurement, you can:

• Buy and sell the same item in different units
• Add multiple alternate units with conversion factors
• Set separate default units for sales and purchases
• Automatically convert item quantities and rates
• Track inventory consistently in the base unit

For example:

Suppose you purchase and sell rice in different units -

• Base Unit: Kilograms (KG)
• Alternate Unit 1: 1 Bag = 25 KG
• Alternate Unit 2: 1 Sack = 50 KG
• Default Purchase Unit: Sack
• Default Sales Unit: Bag

When you purchase 2 sacks, Refrens automatically adds 100 KG to your inventory.

When you sell 3 bags, Refrens automatically deducts 75 KG from your inventory.

Your purchase documents will use Sack by default, while sales documents will use Bag by default. Your inventory will always remain accurately tracked in KG.

One item. Multiple units. Accurate inventory.

Stop rewriting the same email every time you send an invoice, quotation, receipt, or other accounting document.

You can now create and save custom email templates for different document types and use cases in Refrens:

Key Updates:

• Create multiple templates for invoices, quotations, payment receipts, purchase orders, credit notes, and more.
• Customize the subject line and email body for each template.
• Add dynamic variables such as Customer Name, Document Number, Document Date, Due Date, Amount, Currency, Business Name, and Document Link - Refrens automatically fills in the right details for every document.

• Save different variants for different situations - for example, a standard invoice email, a payment follow-up, or a detailed quotation message.
• Edit, duplicate, deactivate, or reuse templates anytime as your communication changes.

Once your templates are saved, simply choose the relevant one while sharing a document. The subject and message are filled in automatically, and you can send without setting up the email again.

We’ve improved Custom Formulas in Refrens to make them easier to create and safer to customize:

What's New:

• Use column names in formulas: Instead of figuring out references like B1*C1, you can now create formulas using familiar column names such as {Length}*{Width}.
• Rearrange columns freely: Move columns around in your invoice without affecting the calculation.
• Rename columns without redoing formulas: Your formulas stay connected to the right fields even when you change their names.
• Existing formulas continue to work: You don’t need to recreate formulas in your older documents.

For example, if you bill customers based on area, you can simply create: {Length} × {Width} to calculate the area automatically.

You can then rename or rearrange these columns whenever you need, and the formula will continue to calculate correctly.

If you use another app or system alongside Refrens, it can now add clients directly to your Refrens client list.

This means your customer details can flow into Refrens without first creating an invoice, quotation, or lead.

External Apps can -

• Add complete client information, including: Contact and billing details, Tax information, Billing and shipping addresses, Bank details, and Custom fields.
• Fetch the client later to confirm the information stored in Refrens and safely retry failed requests without creating duplicate clients.
