Version 9.34 December 2005
Customer's Part Numbers
This screen has been split off from the 'Customer Details' screen and a QuickBar added. The screen can now be accessed via a button on the 'Details' tab.
Customer Credit Summary
A new screen has been added to allow the user to view a summary of a customer's outstanding orders, deliveries and invoices. This can be viewed via a button on the 'Details' tab of 'Customer Details' screen, and via a link on the 'Addresses' screen of a sales order.
Quote Maintenance Hotkey
A new hotkey has been added from works order enquiry to able users to quickly view quotes that use the same part number as the selected works order.
Quotes & Assembly Formulae
Quote have been updated to allow the use of assembly formulae parts.
Allocate Stock To Call-Offs
A button has been added to allow the user to alter the quantity outstanding on a call-off.
Nominal Codes, Purchase Analysis Codes, Cost Centres & Departments
Sales
A new 'cost centre' field has been added to sales invoices which, together with the existing 'Nominal Code' and 'Department', make up a new 'Nominal Account'. The system now verifies that the combination of 'Nominal Code', 'Cost Centre' and 'Department' is valid, rather than just the code as previously. Customers who are not interested in cost centres and departments can leave them blank.
Purchase
The 'cost centre' field has also been added to purchase orders and the combination of 'Analysis Code', 'Cost Centre' and 'Department' has been renamed to 'Nominal Account' throughout the system. Again, customers who are not interested in cost centres and departments can leave them blank.
Both the 'sales' and 'purchase' sides of the system select from, and verify against, a shared list of nominal accounts.
Supplier Maintenance
Supplier Maintenance has been updated with a facility to find suppliers based on contact information.
Order By Stock Level
This program has been re-written so that the screen is now displayed instantly (there was previously a long delay whilst the displayed data was populated).
Stocked Parts
A new tab has been added to the 'Stocked Parts' screen to hold the sales and purchase nominal account overrides. This replaces the old 'P/O Analysis Code' field (which was previously found on the 'Detail' tab, and the sales overrides which were previously on a separate screen.
Stocked Parts Selection
User access has been added to the 'Stocked Parts Selection' screen. Users will now only be able to see this screen if they have access to the 'Stocked Parts' program.
Copy / Replace Part
The Copy / Replace part function has been updated to allow users to replace the details of an existing part, rather than being forced to create a new part.
Raw Material Enquiry
Raw Material enquiry has been updated to allow users to delete or 'hide' any raw materials that are no longer required / in use on the system.
Works Order Report Menu
Options from this menu can now be added to your 'favourites' menu, or used as hot-keys.
MRP
Minimum stock requirements are now only generated for stocked parts with a status of 'Active'.
Auto-Raise Purchase Orders (MRP)
The preferred supplier is now correctly displayed for items where the minimum stock level is the only factor generating the requirement. It is now also possible to raise zero-priced purchase orders by setting the control setting 'MRP_PO_CREATE_ALLOW_ZERO_PRICE' to 'Yes'.
