Woosage50 Development Roadmap

Woosage50 is under continual development to cater for the following.
  1. Requests from clients - based on the number of clients requesting a new feature
  2. Updates to Sage 50 - new versions of Sage 50 Accounts
  3. Updates to website components - updates to WordPress, WooCommerce or supported 3rd party plugins
  4. Internal improvements - bug fixes and features to improve performance or aid support
The Roadmap lifecycle has the following steps
Ideas - list of all potential developments to be investigated for feasibility and popularity
Candidates - ideas being considered for inclusion that have been scoped and quantified along with any necessary updates and internal improvements
Release Specification - candidates to be included in the release specification
Development - production of test builds of the plugin and/or service components
Testing - release builds undergo rigorous testing, which may result in corrective development work
Beta - a build that may be produced for limited release and is only produced when one of more clients agree to test
Release Build - release made generally available for download and installation

Roadmap Outline

The roadmap is outlined below.
Current Release
This is the latest release that is available to download. A release consists of a package of features, functionality and fixes across the Woosage components (Service, plugin and monitor) and is not necessarily linked to the the components versions (e.g. Release 8 has service, monitor and plugin updates with service and monitor versions as 3.0.2 and 3.0.1, respectively)

Next Release
This is the release in development & testing with the key features, functionality & fixes confirmed with a target release date . Target date is not guaranteed as testing can highlight unforeseen issues that require further development. Additionally, unforeseen changes to Sage or website plugin require developments that divert resources.

Candidates for Subsequent Release
This is a list of changes we are currently considering for inclusion in a subsequent release.  These may require considerable research and before a specification and timescale can be estimated. Once the Next Release is completed the final changes to be included the release will be confirmed.
Alert
Note. Candidates may not make the final release and to avoid misleading clients we do not publish this until the next release content is finalised.
