Frequently Asked Questions
If you have any questions that aren't answered below, please don't hesitate to contact us below.
Features
Tools
Will WorkflowMax by BlueRock have the same features that I currently use?
Yes, the same features will be available with some updates rolling out over the re-development period to areas of the platform that needed some enhancements!
Features
Training
Will there be any re-learning required for my staff and I?
There will be minimal training required - WorkflowMax by BlueRock will include the same features and functionality you know and love and will also contain some new features that the community has been requesting for quite some time!
Features
Integrations
Will my existing integration be available?
WorkflowMax by BlueRock intends to integrate with Xero, HubSpot, Google Drive, SharePoint, and Dropbox and support other third-party integrators in the transition. 
Features
Integrations
Will the Xero integration change?
We intend to build a similar integration. Any existing Xero integration will remain until Xero's retirement of WorkflowMax on 26 June 2024.
Features
Open API
Will the Public/Open API be changing?
Will the Public/Open API be changing? V1 of the WorkflowMax by BlueRock API closely mirrors the existing WorkflowMax by Xero V3 API. This design ensures that existing integrations and app partners can seamlessly maintain continuity by simply re-authenticating their integration to connect to the V1 API. In parallel, we are actively developing a second API version, V2. This modern JSON-based API introduces several enhancements, including a refined data structure. For example, it incorporates custom field data as part of the standard response, eliminating the need for a separate call to retrieve this information. Additionally, V2 boasts webhook support, enabling integrations to subscribe to real-time events and receive immediate updates.
Features
Feature Requests
How do I see the new feature summary/status?
To create a feature request, please navigate to our 'Feature Requests' forum here (https://workflowmaxbybluerock.ideas.userback.io/). You can see the status of each feature request marked as 'Open', 'Under Consideration', 'Planned for Development', 'In Development', or 'Complete'.
Features
Security
Will the new WorkflowMax product have MFA (Multi-Factor Authentication)?
Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) is compulsory for all users in your WorkflowMax by BlueRock account. This best practice approach, aids in ensuring a consistently high level of security for all users and their data.
Integration
3rd Party
Will my existing 'Apps' be available to reconnect to WorkflowMax by BlueRock? Which apps will be integrated into WorkflowMax by BlueRock?
We're excited to announce that Version 1 our new API will allow all existing Ecosystem Partners (Apps and 3rd party integration services) the opportunity to simply re-authenticate and connect to WorkflowMax by BlueRock, which will minimise disruption for customers in the migration. The V1 API closely mirrors WorkflowMax by Xero’s V3 API so that there is minimal development effort required to re-integrate. We are also developing a marketplace/directory of Apps that are connected to WorkflowMax by BlueRock, which will be available via www.workflowmax2.com.
Integration
Support
Will there be native integration with SharePoint for document storage?
Yes, we are planning to build a new integration to Sharepoint, which will be free to use as part of the WorkflowMax by BlueRock subscription. We are also building integrations into Google Drive and Dropbox as alternative Document Management Software (DMS) integrations.
Integration
Multi-Currency
Will WorkflowMax by BlueRock support multi-currency that will integrate with Xero?
Will WorkflowMax by BlueRock support multi-currency that will integrate with Xero? Yes, the new WorkflowMax by BlueRock development roadmap includes an extension of the existing Xero integration to support multi-currency. This will enable seamless integration with the currencies in your Xero account.
Integration
Feature Request
Will you be making improvements to the Xero integration?
We are looking at numerous ways to improve the current Xero integration. Elements such as being able to edit fields on the invoice after approval, supporting multi-currency, syncing payments both ways, and pushing documents into Xero are some of the areas under consideration.
Integration
Feature Request
Will custom fields be available via the API as standard responses rather than a separate endpoint? For example if a custom field is added to a job and the job endpoint is used, it returns all job info including custom field data.
Yes, custom fields will be included as part of a standard API response, rather than provided as a separate endpoint, when using our V2 API. However, our V1 API will continue to serve custom field data in the same manner as WorkflowMax by Xero’s existing V3 API to allow you to easily continue to use your existing integration.
Integration
Support
Will there be Single Sign-On (SSO) options going forward?
Yes, we will have Single Sign-On options available. We might not have them ready for go-live in February 2024, but we intend to have all your favourites by June 2024, including Xero, Microsoft, and Google.
Inventory
Feature Request
Will you be introducing an inventory and stock control solution or integration ability?
We don't have plans to build inventory management into WorkflowMax by BlueRock at this time. We will however, be building additional endpoints in our API to allow for better and deeper integrations into third party Inventory Management solutions.
Migration
Migration Tool
How can I migrate my data to WorkflowMax by BlueRock?
There will be a migration tool available for users wanting to migrate their data over to the new platform. We will be releasing more details about how this migration tool will work over the next few months.

Migration costs
Will the migration tool be free?

Migration
Support
If we are already a WorkflowMax by Xero customer, do we still need to sign up?

Yes, custom fields will be migrated to your new account via our migration tool.
Migration
Feature Request
Will existing customers have access to a sandpit area for testing purposes before go live in February 2024?
Users are more than welcome to sign-up for a free trial for WorkflowMax by BlueRock and test out the new features/functionality and get comfortable before formally migrating their data across.
Migration
Support
There may be some historical data that I don't want to migrate, will it be an all or nothing exercise?
Our migration tool will migrate all data that is in your existing WorkflowMax by Xero account – this ensures that you continue to have access to all historical information that you may require. Once migrated, there is bulk action functionality in the WorkflowMax by BlueRock product that can be used to ‘tidy’ any old data as required – for instance bulk archiving clients.
Migration
Pricing
How does the three months discount work if we purchase WorkflowMaxby BlueRock through our Accountants?
The three months discount will be applied at the point of migration and subscription activation (prior to 1 April 2024). This will be applied independent of your relationship to your Accountant.
Pricing
Costs
Will my pricing remain the same?
Yes, pricing will remain the same, and if you create your new account before 1 April 2024, you'll receive 50% off your subscription for your first three months.
Pricing
Support
We're currently on a discounted rate for not-for-profit organisations. Will that be continued in the new platform?

Pricing
Support
How does WorkflowMax by BlueRock 'Premium' differ to WorkflowMax by BlueRock 'Standard'?

Pricing
Support
You mentioned pricing will be the same in 2024 - what are your pricing expectations post 2024?
Our commitment is to keep pricing exactly the same for the entirety of 2024. Thereafter, we will likely revisit pricing, but certainly keeping to the same proposition of being the most feature-rich product, for the lowest possible price.
