Create the ability to select from a range of email templates when sending from the system
I have different emails I send out at different times. Eg. Emails for the the first invoice for a student, emails for late fee reminders, emails as a welcome etc. It would be effective to have the ability to create and then select from a list of templates when you're sending emails. At the moment, the fact there is only one email for sending invoices is restrictive and not very realistic in a business context.
The ability to customise and then select from a drop down list of templates before sending a group of emails would be a big efficiency…
2 votesYou can create your own email templates by going to people list>email templates>email templates and click on new template on the far right. You can make these templates anything you want them to be. Just be sure to use the %% where needed.

Boolean Operator for Mass Email
I've come up with a work around to add more search criteria for mass emails by grouping types of classes to include location however I when I select the specific criteria it selects all applicable matches. I would like to have a boolean operator added when I can select multiple criteria; for example piano lessons in X or Y location. Locations being a different type of class.

Package Registration to have Start/End Date or Status
Package registration for students might change, so the old registration becomes obsolete.
However we want to keep the old registration as a history of what the student has taken but yet be able to retrieve the current active package(s) only.1 votedid not garner enough votes

Calendar View
Can we save the look of our calendars, so that when we log off and on, we can come back and see the same screen image and settings as we logged out with, without having to "toggle the sidebar" or select "teachers" or "day" or "week" settings, in order to save time in getting it back to the same view that we always use?

allow the ability to set individual lesson rates for each student.
In our studio, some of our students have special rates. This might have to do with if they're new or returning, or sometimes we run a special and need to be able to individualize things a little further. It would make it a little simpler if we could manually punch in a rate per individual student, in addition to being able to create a package.
1 voteYou already can do this by creating multiple packages for different rates and simply choosing that package when invoicing. Additionally, you can use a new line item to punch in individual rates instead of using a package from the drop down.

Integration with RingByName
RingByName is a cloud-based PBX phone system. It would be awesome if there was an integration between Studio Helper and RingByName to pull client information so that when someone calls we can see who it is, make notes directly in their accounts, etc.

Be able to sort tasks by priority, date, category, etc.
I use this as the daily todo list for my secretary. It's frustrating that I can't sort by the order she needs to accomplish them. I know there is priority, but beyond that, there's no ability to sort it myself. I'd also like an easy way to repeat tasks rather than sort through the alphabetical list of past tasks.

Evaluations gradebook
Dear Sir/Madam
I am very happy with studio helper.
The only thing that would make me more happy would be a gradebook.I need to track my students evaluations and include them in the monthly report using excel...
I'm thinking of an extra form like the "notes" one and and a history and average in the report of lessons taughts.
Kind Regards.

Online payment options for UK studios
Would be great to have an affiliate payment body such as authorize.met but for UK clients so our students can pay online through studio helper. Paypal is ok but a surprising number of our students don't have a paypal account and can't be bothered with the hassle of setting one up. It's important we get an online payment option with nominal fees too, 5.5% is too much!!
2 votesWe’ll be looking into potential merchant accounts besides Paypal that will support UK customers. Most have very high fees, however.

Canadian Merchant Providers
Canada needs more options for integration. My company uses TD Merchant Services and we're getting such an awesome rate that we will not switch. As it currently sits, this is the only reason why we are not currently considering Studio Helper is for this very reason.
1 votewe are looking at other options and will announce it when other choices are available.

track individual attendance from enrollment date
Keeping track of attended classes for each student from the date of enrollment or re-enrollment is challenging especially since we have rolling enrollment. I'm using a spread sheet to track each student and knowing when to send out new invoices before their lessons run out. It would be great if studiohelper :can track individual attendance and absences and provide a notice and consolidated report perhaps 2-3 weeks before their last lesson so that new invoices for continuation can be sent out.
3 votesYou can use the Lessons Taught Report (https://www.studiohelper.com/reports/lessonsTaught). You can specify a date range, and filter by student name, teacher, lcoation, and/or attendance status. If this report is not enough to meet your requirements, please let us know.

Allow student to print a pdf receipt of their payments, and have the option to select a specific date range on one single receipt
Students who want to submit receipts for taxes purposes currently have to print several individual invoices for the year, or do a print screen of the payment list which does not look professional. It would be great to be able to generate a single pdf document that would display the studio name, their info, and the specific payment info they wanted. The look should be similar to the invoices, but they would be able to select a date range to generate the form and have all the info on 1 sheet instead to several separate pages.

Ability to see a report (list) of a student's entire scheduled lesson
We like to send parents a lesson schedule confirmation in which all lessons are sent in a list format. Attached to the list is the schedule, student information/contact information and instructor contact information.
