Version 9.51 May 2007
Country Codes
Country codes which are no longer required but are referenced historically (and hence cannot be deleted) can now be marked as 'redundant' & removed from the main screen view.
The audit system has been updated to allow the required records to be found using the QuickBar.
Sales Order Book Reports
The sales order book reports can now be set to exclude 'On Hold' orders from the report range.
A new control flag 'INVOICE_RETURNED_ITEMS' has been added which changes the way in which customer returns and credit notes are handled.
Previously, if 4 items were delivered and 1 returned before the delivery had been invoiced then invoice production would only produce an invoice for the 3 items still at the customer. With the new flag set to 'Yes' the system would now invoice all 4 items, and raise a credit note for the item returned.
Please note that setting this flag to 'Yes' may result in items appearing in the 'Invoice Production' and 'Credit Note Production' screen which were not previously there.
A new 'valuation' tab has been added to the 'stocked parts' screen. Users with the correct level of user access can use this screen to view the current stock value of the selected part(s), using both 'standard' and 'actual' batch costs. Please note that the data on this screen takes a little time to generate and so is best used when showing a small range of parts at a time.
The system now has the ability to show the 'Stock Unit Of Measure' alongside most 'BI' and 'MA' part quantity figures. This is activated by the control flag 'STOCK_UOM_INCLUDE' which is set to 'Yes' by default. If you do NOT want to show the unit of measure please set this control flag to 'No'.
Serial Number Maintenance
A new 'Serial Number Maintenance' screen has been added to the 'Stocked Parts Menu'. The screen contains a QuickBar and allows easier viewing, monitoring & control of serial numbered parts within the system. Please note that this option is only available to customers who have purchased the 'Serial Number' module.
An error has also been fixed when using serial numbers which are pre-allocated to works orders. The system will now correctly process a stock receipt when ALL the serial numbers used on it were from the pre-allocation to the works order.
Split Works Order
It is now possible to transfer any components issued to the original works order to the two new works orders, rather than just transferring the costs. If the control flag 'SPLIT_ISSUED_COMPONENTS' is set to 'Yes' then the system will allow the user to choose the quantity of each issued component which is to be transferred to the each of the new works orders. When the split is then processed the system will momentarily return the issued goods to stock and then re-issue them to the new works orders.
