NS-11991 - Fixed missing committed balance on Item and Lot Balances InquiryInquiries
Originally, you keyed that Sales Order expecting it to ship from the Bravo warehouse but, as it turned out, Warehouse Delta ended up being the best option to fulfil the order even though it is the first time those items have shipped from there. You changed the Site property on the Sales Order, but the committed balances on the Item Balances Inquiry now doesn’t and Lot Balances Inquiries now didn't show any commitments for either the Bravo or Delta warehouses. We found and fixed that issue, so now the committed balances will get updated every time an order’s Site gets updated.

You just set up a brand new UOM Schedule Conversion value between Totes and Pounds where 1 Tote equals 1,300 Pounds. You then went and keyed a transaction for 1,000,000 Pounds and instead of calculating the 769.23 Totes that you expected, NorthScope showed you an even 770.00 Totes. After double checking the UOM Schedule Conversion you just made , and seeing it all looked correct and you clicked Save out of habit, you tried the transaction again and suddenly the conversion computed the way you expected. We fixed a bug in how the UOM Schedule Conversion screen calculates and stores inverse UOM Conversion values, so we store enough precision each time the UOM Schedule is saved.

Mass Update is one of our favorite features: it makes quick work of editing a bunch of master files and has a simple interface that makes it easy to use. With all that speed and power comes a big appetite, and when Mass Update doesn't get enough to eat, it gets a little hangry. We've updated the data we feed to Mass Update so it wouldn’t gobble up the contents of the Taxable for Sales or Shipping Description Item Properties.

NS-11884 - Fixed performance issues in Shipments and Load Management Loads
Spring is in the air! Here at NLP, that means we’re all stuck inside hiding from the pollen that’s making our allergies flare. Another thing we’re allergic to is old NorthScope processing code that isn’t necessary anymore. We took an antihistamine and got to work cleaning up the Sales Shipments and Load Management Load Builder code so those processes run more efficiently.background processing jobs, so the NorthScope database isn't doing unnecessary work.

NS-12636 - Fixed inability to add an Item to a Purchase Order using the Item Lookup feature
NorthScope has a lot of validations whose goal is to prevent data from being saved to transactions that are contradictory or just don’t make sense. The validations run frequently to prevent one data entry problem from cascading into a completely invalid transaction; it’s easier to fix a single critical but overlooked field than delete and completely re-key an entire transaction. When we introduced the ability to include unreceived Purchase Order quantities as part of Available Inventory, we inadvertently included a validation that resulted in NorthScope preventing the Item lookup feature from running when adding a line to a Purchase Order. In this release, we’ve tamed the validation so the Item lookup feature can be used while still preventing unexpected data from being added to the Purchase Order.
