Description
Enhancements:
1. New Versions – Xeroom has been refactored to provide Starter and Premium versions with upgrade option for new Starter customers. Existing users are converted to Premium. The Starter version is priced at $97 with a reduced-feature set for customers who are just starting off with their integration and who don’t yet need the more advanced features of the Premium version.
Starters can upgrade to Premium at any time and only pay the prorata difference. Downgrades have to be done on subscription renewal. To upgrade please visit this page https://www.xeroom.com/licence-upgrade/.
Important – As this is a major upgrade, please run a few test orders to ensure everything is working correctly and send us a support email if they are not. Be prepared to rollback to the previous version 2.7.3 if you have a problem which can be downloaded from here https://www.xeroom.com/xeroom-36/.

2. Cancelled orders – Will generate a Credit Note in Xero for Unpaid invoices. Previously Unpaid status invoices in Xero could be voided but if the period was closed then this was not possible.
3. WC Deposits and Partial Payments Plugin – Compatibility is now added for this so that deposits and part payments get posted onto the invoice in Xero.
This is a very useful plugin whose name speaks for itself. At checkout the user is given the option to order by paying a deposit the balance can be paid at a later stage. We have added compatability so that the deposit and subsequent payments get posted correctly to Xero.
4. Paid in Xero – User agent added for webhook calls to avoid getting blocked by WP Engine host.
5. Coupon Account – Coupon amounts are now posted to the relevant product accounts (allocated if multiple products) instead of coupon account.
6. Credit Notes for partial integers – Credit notes will now handle non-integer quantities eg 0.3 of a unit refund.
Bug Fixes:
1. Refund error – HPOS Call to member function get_function() null.
2. PHP Fatal error from malformed UTF-8 characters, possibly incorrectly encoded.
3. For non-instant payments when an invoice is voided in Xero then the status of the order in WC changes to “Processing”.
4. Xeroom debug – Data Tables Warning Ajax error.
5. Paid in Xero – Status flag colour not changing sometimes.
6. Uncaught Error: Cannot use object of type stdClass.
