Version Information 10.43 (Restricted)

Release Notes For Version 10.43

Email Responder

A new facility has been added to FactoryMaster which allows the system to 'listen' for incoming emails on a particular email account, receive a 'command' and reply with a request.

The email responder will ONLY reply to known email addresses which are associated to a user within FactoryMaster to ensure that only valid users can be replied to.

The current enquiries available are:
  • Customer Address Query
  • Supplier Address Query
  • Stock Detail / Level Query (either by part number or part description search)
  • Purchase Order Authorisation
  • Broker Import
Document Attachment URLs

Document attachments have been updated to allow a user to enter a URL instead of a file. When the 'open' button is clicked for this document type the selected website URL will be opened.

Transaction Broker

A new transaction broker style (FM-WO) has been added to allow new works orders to be created. This facility has also been added to the 'Import Manager'.

Another new style (FM-WOSN) has also been added to allow serial numbers to be allocated to an existing works order. Another new style (FM-SODEL) has also been added to allow stock to be auto-allocated to a call-off and added to a delivery note.

TCP Details

A new 'Target Customer Profile' (TCP) facility has been added which allows prospects and customers to be 'scored' according to their adherence to a user-defined list of criteria. This option is enabled via the 'TCP_DETAILS' control flag and is only available to customers who have purchased the 'CRM' module of the system.

RTF Sales Order Acknowledgement

New tags have been added to allow the sales representative's code and name to be included.

RTF Pro-Forma Invoice

A new RFT pro-forma invoice style has been added.

Default P/O Receipt Address Code

A default P/O receipt address code has been added. If a default receipt code is specified then any new purchase orders created will use that as the receipt address. If a default is not specified then the company address will be used.

Find & Replace Specification

An option to find & replace one specification for another in all assemblies has been added to 'Specification Maintenance'.

F.A.I.R Maintenance

It is now possible to include any combination of status types on this screen.

Check for Valid FAIR

This check now only looks at the most recent FAIR for the part. This means that the presence of an invalid FAIR will automatically invalidate all earlier FAIR records for the part.

Bespoke Option

There is no longer a control flag for the bespoke option 'Spring Characteristics' as this option is bespoke to one customer. If you were using this option and you are NOT the customer it was originally written for, then please contact support.
