NS-414: eLandings Integration: added upload capability

Added the capability to integrate delivery tickets originally created in NorthScope and 'managed' by eLandings (meaning that ticket class has been turned on to integrate) to eLandings. With this change a new column titled ‘Integ. Status’ (short for Integration Status) was added to the Delivery Ticket List View to identify the status of the integration to eLandings. The applicable integration statuses are:

  • Not Submitted –This identifies a manually entered Ticket for a Ticket Class that has been configured to integrate to eLandings that has not yet been uploaded to eLandings.
  • Submitted - This identifies a Ticket for a Ticket Class that has been configured to integrate to eLandings that has been successfully downloaded from or uploaded to eLandings.
  • Pending Changes –This identifies a Ticket for a Ticket Class that has been configured to integrate to eLandings that was previously downloaded from or uploaded to eLandings but has since had changes made to it.
  • Submitted-AFD&G Errors – This identifies a Ticket for a Ticket Class that has been configured to integrate to eLandings that had errors when trying to upload to eLandings.
  • Not Required – This identifies a Ticket for a Ticket Class has not been configured to integrate to eLandings.

NS-406: Created a new ‘Balance Transfer’ Transaction

The existing transfer transaction represents a transfer of property from one vendor to another. This means that the ‘Distributed From’ vendor will be receiving money from the ‘Distributed To’ vendor. We are now providing the opposite logic in the form of the ‘Balance Transfer’ that works much like a bank transfer where money is moved ‘From’ one entity to another. In this transaction the ‘Distributed From’ vendor is transferring money to the ‘Distributed To’ vendor.

NS-405: Tender Batch Detail Report

Added a new report that displays a breakdown of tender batches by Day, Gear Type, and Stat Area. The user may type in a specific tender batch or display all tender batches and also filter by gear types. The species included on the report are all salmon species and each specie breaks down into total units delivered and pounds delivered.

NS-404: Fisherman Ranking Report

Added a new report that ranks fisherman in descending order by either Gross Amount or by Net Pounds. The report contains selection criteria for a date range, one or more gear types, and one or more ticket classes. The report calculates a total gross amount for all tickets that qualify and displays the percentage that the fisherman accounts for in the grouping. The number of 'deliveries' (# of delivery tickets) those amounts represent is also displayed along with the (net) pounds delivered on that fisherman's delivery tickets. For fisherman that are operating under a dual permit, tickets will be listed under the fisherman that is set as their Master Vendor.

Enhancements

Purchasing

NS-415: AP Check and Remittance changes

Made several cosmetic changes to the AP Check that included: removing the column and data in the 'Our voucher number' column, changing the title of the 'Document Number' column to 'Invoice', right aligning the 'Amount' column to be located over the dollar amounts, removing the 'Payment Number' column, and increasing the number of invoices that print on the check stub from 12 to 30 before a separate remittance report is required to print.

Several changes were made to the check remittance that reflect the changes to the AP Check that included: removing the column and data in the 'Our voucher number' column, changing the title of the 'Document Number' column to be 'Invoice', removing the 'Payment Number' column along with 'Amount Paid', 'Discount', 'Writeoff', and 'Net'.

NS-410: Account Activity Detail: Additions

There were a few changes made to the Account activity Detail Report which included: adding open purchase orders at the bottom of the report, adding the new Balance Transfer Transactions, and adding a field to the delivery ticket section for the permit holder for fishermen fishing with Dual Permits.

NS-409: Editable Transaction ID for Employee Sales

Added the ability for users to override the system assigned transaction ID. This was requested because some sale transactions are entered from paper transactions that already contain a pre-printed ‘Transaction Number’. With this change, users can enter the pre-printed transaction numbers in the Transaction ID field.

NS-408: Editable Transaction ID for Customer Sales

Added the ability for users to override the system assigned transaction ID. This was requested because some sale transactions are entered from paper transactions that already contain a pre-printed ‘Transaction Number’. With this change, users can enter the pre-printed transaction numbers in the Transaction ID field.

NS-407: Editable Transaction ID for Fisherman Sales

Added the ability for users to override the system assigned transaction ID. This was requested because some sale transactions are entered from paper transactions that already contain a pre-printed ‘Transaction Number’. With this change, users can enter the pre-printed transaction numbers in the Transaction ID field.

NS-403: Master Vendor/Child Vendor (used for Dual Permit holders)

In response to the issue presented by dual permits, the functionality of the Master Vendor property on the Vendor Master File has been expanded. With this release, the following changes have been implemented:

  • The ‘Master Vendor’ property for a Vendor cannot be set to itself.
  • The ‘Master Vendor’ property for “Vendor” vendor types can only be set to another account with a vendor type of “Vendor”.
  • The ‘Master Vendor’ property for a “Fisherman”, “Tender”, or “Fishermen & Tender” vendor types can only be set to another account with a vendor type of “Fisherman”, “Tender”, or “Fishermen & Tender”.
  • Child Vendors (Vendors with a Master Vendor assigned) cannot be used on any transactions other than a Delivery Ticket. If they are used on a Delivery Ticket, the ticket balance is rolled into the Master Vendor record.

NS-402: Changes to Account Balances report

There were changes made to the account balances that included the ability to suppress accounts with zero balances and the addition of a multi-select combo box that allows the user to select the account types to include: Vendor, Fisherman & Tender, Customer, Employee, or All.

NS-401: Tender Vessel Property

As part of the eLandings integration, a new vendor property was added to assign the ‘Tender ADF&G Vessel’. This property is only visible to Vendors with a Vendor Type of Tender or Fisherman & Tender. 

Fixes

Purchasing

NS-423: Adjustment grid delete button was clearing all transaction line items

The adjustment transaction was deleting all lines when the grid delete button was clicked, despite only one line of many being selected for deletion. Now the adjustment transaction deletes only those lines selected for deletion.

NS-422: Incorrect pounds on the ‘Deliveries by Specie and Product’ report

Some tickets were showing an incorrect count of pounds on the Deliveries by Specie and Product, this issue has now been fixed and shows correct data according to the ticket in question.

NS-421: Account Activity Detail report was showing voided tickets

The Account Activity Detail report was showing voided tickets in the report body. The report now filters out voided tickets.

NS-420: Cash Receipt generating incorrect transaction ID

There was a bug fixed where Cash Receipt transactions were being saved with the incorrect document prefix (should have been CR-*).

NS-412: Master Vendor assigned to current vendor being edited

There was a bug fixed in which the Master Vendor property on a vendor’s master file was being populated with the current vendor as a possible selection. The property now filters out the vendor currently being edited so that they may not be selected as their own master vendor.

NS-399: Fisherman Sale fisherman selection includes inactive fisherman

There was a bug fixed that was allowing inactive fisherman to appear in transaction selection drop-downs.

NS-395: Manual Journal Entries integrating to GP with no lines

There was a case where manual journal entries were integrating to GP with no distribution lines. This case is now handled and there are no cases where journal entries come across without distributions.
