 What's included in this update?

See the What's New page on our website for a complete list of changes in the most recent version.

  • A recent addition is the Marketing Search module which adds a variety of search options to help you generate reports, letters, and labels from you customer database.

  • Also recently added, Advanced EFT processing now gives you more tools and options to help select and post to the check register.

  • Outbound Email now handles SMTP Server Authentication.  This makes it possible to setup your Agency Advantage email with ISPs that require authentication.

  • The AA Connection delivers timely information about program updates, corrections & newsletters directly to each workstation.

 Update Boot Camp

  • Download and install the update when everyone is out of the program. We recommend installing the update after hours or before the office opens in the morning.

  • Begin at one computer and go to the AA Utilities Menu and click on Internet Update.

  • Click Check for Internet Update, then Download Program Update. This will store the update file on your server drive in the AA\Updates folder. This gives everyone access to the file with only one download.

  • After the download completes, restart The Agency Advantage. It will detect the new update and prompt you to install. After the installation completes, exit the program on this computer.

  • Go to the next workstation and open up The Agency Advantage. It will detect the update and prompt you to install.  Repeat this process until you have updated all of the computers in your office.

Logo & Signature Imaging

Some workstations have trouble displaying the embedded signature and logo files in AA. This problem is caused by other imaging software installed on the machine. You can find instructions for correcting this problem on the support website.
