MLS 3.1.2 Released
Posted: Fri Dec 11, 2009 9:30 am
Yes, it's hot on the heels of 3.1.0 and 3.1.1. But this one is a planned upgrade, not just a quick fix.
First, we apologize, this one is HUGE ... 8M in size. Lots of PDFs in lots of languages resulted in a much larger than usual update. For those of you on broadband, the 8M file will be a minor bump. For the rest of you, it'll be a long download ... probably 40 minutes for the very fastest dialup systems and much longer for everyone else. Because it's tithing settlement time, chances are you will be in the office for an extended length of time anyway.
BUT THE GOOD NEWS is that we purposely waited for the vast majority of units to upgrade to MLS 3.1 to take advantage of its new communication system before releasing this one.
So if the download is taking a long time, REMEMBER:
1) With MLS 3.1 you can just let the file transfer run in the background while you get your work done, editing membership, entering finance information, etc.
2) If you finish some finance or membership changes that you want to send up while the download is still happening ... that's okay, there's no need to wait! You don't even need to disconnect. Just click Send/Receive again. MLS will prioritize your changes and send them up ahead of the continued download.
3) And if you really need to leave. That's okay too! Just click Disconnect and log off. The next time you do a Send/Receive, MLS will prioritize any of your changes and do them first, and then resume the download right where it left off. No harm done.
Enjoy the new communications system. And enjoy the new features and functionality in MLS 3.1.
Merry Christmas and happy holidays from the MLS crew.
