Putler – our Paypal monitoring, notification, reporting and planning tool is progressing well. Today, we released the Alpha 2.2 version. You can now see “month to date” balance change and “daily average” change in balance.

Both these additions help you monitor daily and monthly performance of your business. Month to date change in balance tells you how much money you made (or spent) from the start of this month. The daily average will tell you average change in balance. Daily average is very useful, it even helps you gauge a day’s performance (from the Balance Trend chart) against “benchmark” average. So if your average is $300, but you did only $100 on a day, you know something was not quite right.

We also added “Automatic Updates” in version 2.1. So if you have 2.1, it will check for this update automatically and ask if you want to install it. If you are using a version below 2.1, we recommend you download Putler again and install it to take advantage of the latest updates.

This release completes our initial “wish list” of features. All reports and calculations are currently based on the account balance. We are now working on creating reports from transaction details – so that they reflect actual sales. Putler’s next versions will tell you about your daily sales, which products are selling more and who are your top customers – among others.

Thank you for trying Putler, and we look forward to your feedback.
