Improvements

Fisherman Accounting

NS-6022 Created a FA Payment Receipt printed report

Do you like getting a printed receipt when you make a payment? Do you at least like the option to have one? With this release, you can now offer a printed receipt when accepting payments from Fishermen. A report definition is shipping and will be available to deploy to the report server. Users can now easily print the Payment Receipt, either generated from a Fisherman Accounting transaction or manually entered by the user as a Cash Receipt, via the Print dialog on the Payment Receipt record view and the Other Transactions list view.


Purchasing

NS-6076 Added Doc No columns to the AP Application inquiry

We added “Doc No” and “Applied Doc No” columns to the ‘Vendor Balances - AP Transaction & Check Applications’ page to display the Doc No associated with the Invoice or Credit Memo. Please note that check and ACH payments do not have an associated Doc No.

NS-6100 Added new Purchasing Preference to default the GL Date to use the current date for AP Invoices if the Fiscal Period is closed

A new Purchasing preference called ‘Default GL Date from current date if transaction date is in a closed Fiscal Period’ has been added. This property will default to “No”, which means the GL Date will be populated from transaction date when the invoice/credit memo is saved as ‘Approved’ / ‘Ready to Post’. If set to “Yes”, when the invoice/credit memo is saved as “Approved” or “Ready to Post”, then the GL Date will use the current date when the Transaction Date is in a closed Fiscal Period. This preference will not override a manually entered GL Date, either from the record view or mass update. 


Sales

NS-5878 Added mass update of sales order attributes to the Transaction List list view and added mass update of sales order attributes and logistics attributes to the Transaction Shipments list view

Having to update multiple attributes for multiple transactions used to be a long and cumbersome task. Not anymore! NorthScope now has the functionality to mass update sales order attributes from the Transaction List list view. We’ve also enabled the mass update for both sales order attributes and logistics attributes on the Transaction Shipments list view. Please note the sales transaction class property for 'Allow Attribute Edit After Approval' will dictate whether or not sales order attributes are updated if the transaction is in a status of Approved or greater. Additionally, if a particular attribute is not applied to a transaction and a user mass updates the attribute value, then the attribute value will be ignored. And finally, please keep in mind that we will be replacing (not appending or merging) any existing attribute values with the mass updated attribute values, given they are applied to the associated transaction. For example, if a sales order attribute ‘ABC’ has a value of “123” and is mass updated with value “456”, then “123” will be replaced with “456”.

NS-6022 Created a Customer Payment Receipt printed report

We are including a new Payment Receipt report with this version of NorthScope. A report definition will ship with this release and will be available to deploy to the report server. Users can now easily print the Payment Receipt generated in the Sales functional area via the Print dialog on the Payment Receipt record view and the Payment Receipts list view.
