Improvements

Company

NS-2970 Added Unique Name Validations to Attributes and Certifications

Previously, the system allowed users to create attributes and certifications with the same name. Due to a framework limitation, duplicate column names cannot be displayed in grids and only either the attribute or certification column was displayed. This situation could have occurred e.g. in Items list view. To avoid this from occurring a new validation was added to attributes and certifications to prevent users from creating attributes and certifications with the same name.

Inventory

NS-3009 Updated the Adjustment Transaction Decimals

The Cycle Count page was updated to display the on-hand quantities with 5 decimals. When the item quantities are entered or the Clean Out feature is used on the Cycle Count page, the quantity is entered with the decimal place properties assigned on the item record. The Adjustment transaction record was updated to always allow to enter quantities with 5 decimal places. 

Purchasing

NS-2980 Updated the Sale Transaction Validation Process

The Sale transaction ‘Payments cannot exceed the transaction amount’ was updated to be performed after the tax calculation. Previously the validation was ignoring the tax amount, which caused the error to be displayed for the user unnecessarily if the payment amount was entered before the transaction was saved.

Sales Order

NS-2947 Fixed GL Date for Historical Sales Order Transactions

Due to the recent Sales Order process changes, the GL date for historical Sales Order transactions was not displayed and appeared blank. A data fix was created to populate the GL date.

NS-2977 Changed Shipment Deliver On Date to Update from the Transaction Header 

Previously, when the ‘Default Deliver On’ date was updated in the header section of a Sales Order transaction, the Shipment ‘Deliver On’ date was not updated accordingly when the transaction had a single shipment. The Shipment ‘Deliver On’ date was changed to updated, when the ‘Deliver On’ date in the header section is changed.


Bug Fixes

Purchasing

NS-2988 Fixed Sales Line Inquiry

Due to a bug, the Sales Line Inquiry was displaying an error when no attributes were configured in the system. The issue is now fixed.

NS-3044 Fixed a Sales Transactions Posting Issue

Due to a bug, AR Sale transactions were not posting correctly when the status was updated from Approved to Ready to Post and this was causing the transaction integration to fail. The issue is now fixed. As a part of this work item the Employee Sale integration was updated to insert the Journal Entry created from the Sale transaction to the Outbound integration table after the Employee Arrears transaction is integrated. 

Note: The new process requires Employee Arrears and Journal Integration setup to be set to Timed/Immediate. Previously, the Journal Entry would have integrated even when the Employee Arrears integration setup was set to None, but the Journal integration was turned on.

Sales Order

NS-5011 Fixed an Error on Return: Find an Invoice Page

Occasionally a duplicate key error was displayed on the Return: Find an Invoice page when building a Sales Order Return transaction, which prevented users from creating the transaction. The issue is now fixed.

Sales Programs

NS-2976 Fixed An Error Message on Program Record

Previously, a syntax error was displayed on a Sales Program record, when a program was selected from the Program ID menu and the program name included a non-alphabetic character (e.g. ‘ ). The issue is now fixed.

NS-2999 Fixed Broker Balance and Broker Activity Inquiry

Previously, the Broker Balances and Broker Activity inquiry were not updated accordingly when a voided settlement transaction was voided. The issue is now fixed.
