Improvements - NorthScope Web app / UI
Purchasing
NS-11109 Added Unposted transactions to the Invoice History and Invoice Line History Inquiries
After we received from feedback from you, we have added back unposted transactions to our Invoice and Invoice Line History inquiries.
NS-11337 Added Open Purchase Order Transactions and a Status column to the Purchase Order History and Purchase Order Lines History Inquiries
Same thing here…
Sales
NS-11004 Updated the Price List Mass Update Price List lookup to only display active Sales and Quick Sales price lists
When opening the Price List Mass Update screen from the Sales Functional area, all price lists were available across functional areas. This was unintended and now when opening this screen, only the Sales Price Lists will display.
NS-11502 Added a column for Contract # to the Sales Item History Inquiry
When using contracts, you probably want to see what Contract is on what item… Sorry about that. But we aren’t sorry anymore because it’s now in the Sales Item History Inquiry
System
NS-8438 Removed a validation for File Export type reports when added to the Manage Reports page
When attempting to add a new File Export type report an error would display. What error do you ask? Well it’s an error that is meaningless and referenced the report server when it really didn’t need to. We have removed it because nobody likes back talk especially when it has no basis.
Bug Fixes - NorthScope Web app / UI
Company
NS-11399 Fixed a typo in a SQL job procedure that would cause the job to fail
Yup did taht…
Financial
NS-11231 Fixed an issue with large ACH transaction numbers causing an issue on the FN Payment Register NS Report
Fisherman Accounting
NS-8259 Fixed an issue with Mass Updating Item Reprice Comments
Mass Update on ticket item reprice was behaving a lot like whack-a-mole… You know, the game where you hit a mole just for another one to rear his ugly (or cute?) head? Well we went through it with a fine toothed comb (or hammer) and got all the moles. Good as new.
NS-8536 and NS-11000 Fixed an issue with Price List End Dates in the past and we removed a column from the Price List table that is no longer used
Expiring prices on Price Lists would not allow users to update the price for the next set of pricing. This isn’t ideal so we fixed the issue. There was also some spring cleaning that we are getting to at the end of Summer for the price list tables.
NS-8944 Fixed an issue with the Fisherman Payment Receipt 'Received From' field not being disabled when applications exist
So here’s the deal. There was a bug in Payment Receipts for Fishing where you could create a Payment Receipt for Fisherman A, make applications in the application window, and then go back to the Payment Receipt window and change to Fisherman B. This doesn’t seem all bad except that the previous applications would still be around. This means effectively that Fisherman B would be paying for Fisherman A’s transactions. Now Fisherman A and Fisherman B might be really good buddies but probably not that good and if they are, that’s why we have Balance Transfer transactions. This has been resolved by not allowing the Fisherman to change after applications have been made.
NS-9709 and NS-11787 Fixed some issues with Payment Terms when the value did not exist on the class and some Fresh Install bugs
Payment Terms were causing some issue when they shouldn’t have been. We have whipped them into shape and now they are behaving as we’d expect. Likely you weren’t experiencing any issues with them but now for sure you won’t.
NS-9844 Added a new validation that would prevent users from encountering an issue when multiple tabs are open while processing payments
Multi-tab issues strike again! We tried calling Batman and Superman, but they were fighting and didn’t have time for us. So we used our internal super heroes and they fixed the issue. Now if you have two tabs open with the same payment batch and one gets printed, you can no longer add or change payments in the other tab.
Grower Accounting
NS-10535 Fixed an issue with AP Invoices automatically created from Posted Grower Accounting Tickets when tickets were Mass Updated from the List View
When mass updating Grower Tickets and running into an error, sometimes an AP Invoice would be generated anyways and cause duplicate issues when attempting to post again. This has now been resolved. Mas Posting everyone!
NS-11125 Made some weight column fields not editable on the Charges & Accruals Record View
Some weight columns in the Charges & Accruals page were editable but didn’t actually do anything. While we think it might be fun to edit things in a hypothetical sense, you probably didn’t. They are disabled now.
Inventory
NS-11554 Fixed an issue with Beginning Balances calculations on the Transaction History Lot Inquiry
Some voids sneakily found their way into the beginning balance calculations on the Transaction History Lot inquiry. They aren’t tall enough to ride the ride and we reminded them of that fact, no longer will they cause issues with beginning balances.
Purchasing
NS-9853 Fixed an issue with the Expire By date on the AP Purchase Order NS and AP Receipt Notice NS reports
Previously we were displaying the incorrect date for the PO Expire By date. This is now displaying the correct date and nobody should allow POs to expire now.
Sales
NS-11287 Fixed an issue with large Shipment Tracking Numbers breaking the Shipment History Inquiry
That’s all we have to say about that.
NS-11395 Fixed an issue where the 'Avg Days to Pay' field would display different values on the Customer Record View to the Customer List View
In this instance the list view was correct and the record view was incorrect. We taught the Record View a lesson and now it’s smarter… well, as smart as it should have always been.
System
NS-9584 Fixed an issue when users entered more than 2000 characters in a Note for some pages
Sometimes you might have a lot to say. Sometimes you might want to make that a note and sometimes you get errors. That last part will no longer be an issue. If you have a lot to say and need to note it somewhere then go right ahead!
NS-11215 Fixed an issue with deleting a User due to a conflict between two tables
We inadvertently had a link from the User table to the Vendor Interest Charge table. This has been removed so delete away.
