Improvements
Inventory
NS-2080 Updated Variable Weight Property for Weight Only Managed Items
Previously, the Variable Weight property on Item records displayed ‘No’ for items that are managed by weight only, though weight only items are always variable weight. The property was updated to display ‘Yes’.
NS-2674 Added ‘Shipping Description’ to Items and Sales Order – Transaction Items List Views
A new column ‘Shipping Description’ was added to the ‘Items’ and ‘Sales Order – Transaction Items’ list views. The field displays the Shipping Description item property of the corresponding item. The column is not in the system view.
Logistics
NS-2705 Updated Load and Shipment ID to Default to the LoadSK Value
The Sales Order Shipment and Logistics Load IDs were updated to default to the LoadHeaderSK value to improve the system performance. Previously, the IDs were assigned based on the Sales Order and Logistics preferences. The Sales Order Preference ‘Next Shipment ID’ and the Logistics Preference Next Load ID were removed as a part of this work item. This work item also included a data fix to update all existing Load and Shipment IDs to the LoadHeaderSK value.
Sales Order
NS-2700 Changed SO Freight Leg to Calculate from the Allocated Quantity when Shipped
The Sales Order Shipment Leg freight calculation was updated to always calculate the freight from the allocated weight when the status of the load is shipped or higher. This includes orders that have no allocations.
NS-2710 Updated Sales Order Journal to Always Re-calculate on Ready to Post Status Change
Previously, the Sales Order transaction journal details were re-calculated on status moves until Approved status. Sales Order transactions were updated to re-calculate the journal details also when the transaction status is changed from Approved to Ready to Post.
NS-2711 Updated Workflows for Sales Order Return and Price Adjustment Transactions
Previously, Return and Price Adjustment transactions were using Sales Order transaction workflows. Both Return and Price Adjustment transactions were updated to use the transaction type specific workflow. An error message is displayed for a user on building the transaction, if the transaction site is not currently assigned to any Return/Price Adjustment type workflow.
System
NS-2625 Updated Currency Exchange Rates to Display with 7 Decimals
The currency exchange rate record was updated to always display the rate with 7 decimal places.
NS-2709 Updated Customer & Vendor Currency Inbound Integration
The customer and vendor inbound integrations were updated to assign the Host system functional currency to customers and vendors who do not have a currency assigned in the Host system.
Bug Fixes
Company
NS-2714 Fixed Inbound Integration Process
Previously, the inbound integration process was not occasionally reprocessing all inbound integration records with the status of Reprocess as expected. This issue is now fixed.
Logistics
NS-2614 Fixed Load Record to Save Other Charge
Due to a bug, a value entered in the Other freight cost field on Logistics Load record was not saving correctly. The field was cleared when the load record was saved. The issue is now fixed.
Sales Order
NS-2721 Fixed Customer and Customer Address List View
Due to a bug, the Customer and Customer Address List Views were displaying some duplicate rows. This issue was only a display issue and the records were not duplicated. The issue is now fixed.
NS-2723 Fixed Sales Order Transactions Workflow Mass Update
Due to a bug, updating the transaction workflow from the transactions list view removed assigned Freight Terms from the updated transactions. The issue is now fixed.
Sales Programs
NS-2726 Fixed Sales Programs to Recalculate Until Ready to Post Status
Previously, the Sales Program – Program Amount was recalculated no matter what the status of the transaction status was. The re-calculation occurs when e.g. the Sales Order Program Details page is opened. The recalculation was updated to only happen when the transaction status is Approved or less.
System
NS-2703 Fixed Currency Rate Duplication Issue
The currency rates on exchange rate records were being duplicated in NorthScope when they were integrated from the Host system. This issue is now fixed.
