            <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>You can now photograph a supplier receipt, or upload a PDF, and let Masto Control propose the receipt for you: the supplier, number, date, VAT, the goods, and the delivery charge or discount at the bottom.</p>
<p>Each line is matched to a material or a tool you already have, even when the receipt is in another language, and the names are translated into yours. Packs are worked out for you (two packs of 3 kg of wax comes out as 6 kg), and anything that does not exist yet can be created on the spot. Nothing is saved until you have checked the draft.</p>

<p>Included in every plan, up to 10 scans per workspace per day. <a class="" href="https://docs.mastocontrol.com/purchases-and-costs/receipt-scanning">How it works</a></p>]]></content:encoded>

            <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A customer asks for something you do not make: a wedding set, a gift box, a one-off colour. You can now add it as a <strong>custom-made line</strong> right on a sales order. Describe what goes into it (materials and ready items), and it is costed and taken out of stock when you post the order, without creating a product card you will never use again.</p>
<p>The separate "custom order" button is gone: it is now simply a line type on <strong>New order</strong>.</p>

            <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>You can now protect your account with a second step at sign-in: after your password, Masto Control asks for a six-digit code from an authenticator app on your phone. Anyone who learns your password still cannot get in without that phone.</p>
<p>It is optional and set per account, so turning it on for yourself does not change how your colleagues sign in. Any standard authenticator app works, including Google Authenticator and Microsoft Authenticator.</p>

            <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Reports</strong> now covers the questions an accountant asks, not only the ones a maker asks: a <strong>Profit</strong> report from revenue down to net profit, <strong>inventory valuation</strong> as of a date you choose, a <strong>purchase ledger</strong> split into stock, tools and expenses, a <strong>fixed-asset register</strong> with depreciation, and <strong>payables</strong> by age. Later additions are the <strong>sales ledger</strong> and <strong>receivables</strong>.</p>

            <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Before something is a product it is an idea, and finding out whether it works costs real wax. <strong>Prototyping</strong> is where those ideas live: a recipe without the commercial half (no packaging, no channel prices), the samples you actually poured, and what every attempt cost.</p>
<p>When an idea works you promote it to a product card; when it does not, you reject it and the cost is still on record.</p>

            <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A melter, a bench scale, a label printer: things you own and keep are not stock, and now they are not treated like it. Each item has its own record under <strong>Assets</strong>: what it cost, how much it has depreciated, what it is worth now, and, when it finally goes, why.</p>
<p>Depreciation is straight-line and charged monthly. One button catches every item up to the end of last month, and a month is never charged twice. A tool bought on the same receipt as your materials becomes an asset rather than stock.</p>
