? Release Notes For Version 10.34

Quote Authorisation

A new option to force quotes to be authorised by nominated users before they can be sent out has been added. This option can be enabled via the control setting 'QUOTE_AUTHORISATION'.

It is now also possible to set an 'In Planning' quote as 'Cancelled'.

User Defined fields on Purchase Orders

3 user defined fields have been added to purchase orders at the 'detail' level.

Customers Own Part Numbers / Descriptions on Despatch Labels

Customer's own part numbers and customer's own descriptions will be used on despatch labels where applicable.

The 'DESP_LBL_CUST_OWN_PN' control flag has been added if users would like to turn off this function and always use the 'internal' part number / description.

Changes to Sub Works Orders

The system has been updated to allow users to define, on a part by part basis, whether works order for that part will be created via a sub works order / sales works order or via MRP.

Customers data should be updated to use the 'GENERATE_SUBWO' value and therefore should continue to function as normal until a part is changed.

If the 'GENERATE_SUBWO' control flag is currently set to 'Yes' then ALL parts will default to be created via sub works order / sales works order. Otherwise the value will default to MRP.

The 'GENERATE_SUBWO' control flag now serves as the default value for the 'Create WO' field and changing it will NOT change the sub works order functionality as in previous versions.

Drag & Drop Schedule BETA

The ability to 'hide all other works orders' and to update the schedule once changes have been made has been added to the 'beta' option.

Any operations that have been altered in this way will contain a marker to show that they have been edited by the user.

Please contact support if you would like to be a part of the beta program to run this option and provide valuable feedback on how we develop this new facility.

'At Risk' Maintenance

A new option has been added to allow items being made on a works order to be flagged as being 'at risk'. This generates a record from which the problem can be investigated and internal rejects or customer concessions raised as appropriate. These new records can also now be raised from the data capture screens. Please contact support if you think you may be interested in purchasing this option.

SC21 Report

Two new options have been added to the 'Customer Statistics' menu to allow 'Delivery Metric' and 'Quality Metric' reports to be produced in the format required by the SC21 body.
