Improvements
Company
NS-4029 Updated the Company Integration Configuration settings to remove the “Immediate” option for Inbound Integration
Because all inbound integration records are first put in the inbound queue and then processed using a timed job, the choice for Immediate and Timed were doing the same thing. As a result we have removed the option for Immediate and the upgrade includes a data fix that updates any current Inbound integration setting from “Immediate” to “Timed”.
Financial
NS-4506 Updated the Journal Details Line Type to reflect "Transfer Freight Expense" for journals created from Transfer transactions with Freight
Previously, on journal entries created from Transfer transactions that included Freight, NorthScope was displaying the text "Freight Expense" in the Line Type column of the Journal Details window. This was causing confusion with some users that were not sure if the GL Account was coming from the Item’s “Freight Expense” account or “Transfer Freight Expense” account. The text of the Line Type for transfer transactions with freight now displays "Transfer Freight Expense".
Fisherman Accounting
NS-4524 Added a “Default Fisherman Check Description” Preference to Fisherman Accounting
Previously, NorthScope was defaulting the text “Settlement” in the memo field of the checks for all Fisherman and Loans where the Fisherman or Loan Address master file did not have a value in the “Check Description” field. A request was made to give users the ability to control the text and as a result a new preference named “Default Fisherman Check Description” has been added to the Fisherman Accounting > Configuration > Preferences to allow users to choose what memo description they would like to default on checks. The preference defaults to the value “Settlement” but can be edited to any value up to 250 characters.
Inventory
NS-4502 Added Production Batch Attribute and Production Batch Site columns to the Transaction History – Lot Inquiry
A new column titled “Production Batch Site” has been added to the Transaction History – Lot inquiry which displays the [Site Name] – [Site ID] for the associated Production Batch. In addition, all the Production Batch Attribute columns have been added to the inquiry. The Production Batch columns will only be populated when the Inquiry Criteria “Include Item & Production Batch Attributes” is set to “Yes”.
Note: The Production Batch Site column was added to the system views of pages listed above. Any existing custom user views on these pages will need to be updated if you want to include this column.
Bug Fixes
Fisherman Accounting
NS-4118 Fixed a bug opening the Fisherman Activity Inquiry from the Fisherman Balance page
Users were receiving an error opening the Fisherman Activity Inquiry if any of the Payment transactions contained a Check Description of more than 100 characters. The Check Description field on this page has been updated to support 250 characters.
Inventory
NS-4507 Fixed issue importing Inventory Production transactions along with Production Batches at the same time in companies that have Lot Certifications configured
Because of an order of operation, users were experiencing an error when importing inventory production transactions along with production batches at the same time, from the same .csv file on the same template file when certifications were setup in the system.
Sales
NS-4462 Disabled the ‘Ord. Weight’ field for Unit Only Items on the Transaction Items List View
The ‘Ord. Weight’ field on the Sales order Record View and all the allocation pages is disabled for unit only items, however this field was enabled on the Transaction Items List View. It should not have been enabled and caused confusion. This field is now disabled for editing on the Transaction Items List View.
System
NS-4528 Fixed a display issue with the report Description field on the Reports List View
Previously, when reports were setup on the System > Manage Reports page that included a Description, the description was not being displayed correctly.
