Question 1

If I run two businesses in BytePhase, do they share one Twilio account?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The SMS provider is set once for your whole BytePhase account, so when Twilio is primary, every business sends through the same Twilio account and From number. What changes per business is the signature: outside India, each business can have its own SMS signature, and a text carries the signature of the business that issued it.

Question 2

Can a customer stop receiving Gupshup SMS from my shop?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Each customer record has Notification preferences, where you can switch SMS off for that customer altogether or only for particular events such as invoices or payments. BytePhase checks these settings before every automatic SMS and skips the message if SMS is off, so the customer stops getting texts without you changing anything else.

Question 3

Can my UPI ID go out in BytePhase payment reminders?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Message templates have a Payment UPI ID variable that fills in the default UPI ID of the business the job or sale belongs to. You can add it to the payment-received message, the job due-payment reminder and the sale payment-due reminder, so customers who owe money have your UPI ID in front of them and can pay from any UPI app.

Question 4

Can my Xero plan limit what BytePhase syncs?

Accepted Answer

Yes, in two ways. Xero's Starter plan has a low daily API limit, so a bulk sync of many records in one go may use up that day's quota. And tracking parts as Xero inventory needs a Xero plan that supports inventory; otherwise sync parts without stock tracking, which works on every Xero plan. Any record that fails to sync is listed with the reason in the sync view, where you can retry it.

Question 5

Who in my team can set up QuickBooks, and how do I check the set-up is right?

Accepted Answer

Connecting, mapping and syncing need the Manage QuickBooks Integration permission, which the Admin role has by default and which can be given to other staff. Once connected, the set-up page shows which QuickBooks company you are linked to. The Test mapping button checks your saved accounts against your live QuickBooks chart of accounts and flags any that were deleted, made inactive or changed type, so you can fix them before invoices fail.

Question 6

Are updates included with BytePhase?

Accepted Answer

Updates are free and always included, so your software always has the latest features.

Question 7

Is data security ensured with BytePhase’s POS?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely, BytePhase uses AES-256 encryption and automatic backups to secure your data.

Question 8

What is the Device Image Gallery feature in BytePhase?

Accepted Answer

The Device Image Gallery is a powerful feature within BytePhase repair shop software that allows you to capture, store, and manage images of devices undergoing repair. This feature helps in maintaining a visual record of the device’s condition before and after service.

Question 9

Is the PhonePe integration secure?

Accepted Answer

BytePhase never holds your money: PhonePe settles it to your own account. An invoice is marked paid only after PhonePe’s signed confirmation is checked, and your BytePhase data is encrypted (AES-256) at rest and backed up daily.

Question 10

Is my customers’ WhatsApp data safe?

Accepted Answer

Only people you allow can connect WhatsApp, add balance, read chats or run campaigns, and you can disconnect any time without affecting WhatsApp on your phone. Automatic messages go through the official WhatsApp Business API, and your BytePhase data is encrypted (AES-256) at rest and backed up daily.
