What’s new in SAMCO Power Accounting

Current Release 35.195 (14.07) 
Jun 01 2021

*AP In AP, when voiding a prepayment quick check a second time, the system failed to locate the record. This has been corrected.

*AR The cash application screen will display a message when the document specified has an atypical balance. This message has been improved to be more specific about what the document type is and why the balance is not normal.

*AR The cash application screen's F5 window for specifying which documents (apply-to numbers, actually) should be paid, would, if the running balance went negative, use that negative balance when the F1 key was used for default amount to pay an invoice, when it should have just used the invoice amount. This has been corrected.

*AR The cash application screen's F5 window for specifying which documents (apply-to numbers, actually) should be paid has been enhanced so that if there is an open credit, and it has a positive balance, a message comes up explaining that this is unusual (atypical) for open credits and there are no funds available to be redistributed to invoices.

*AR The cash application screen's F5 window for specifying which documents (apply-to numbers, actually) should be paid has been enhanced so that when "paying" a payment, the "payment" has to be the same sign as the document balance. Normal payments require a negative "pay-amt” so that their funds can go into the running balance and be used to pay something with a postive balance (invoices usually). While a payment with a postive balance needs to be paid down like an invoice, so it now requires a postive "pay-amt" like an invoice does.

*AR The forms maintenance test feature has been enhanced so that when using always mounted forms with the samco esend feature for single pass printing (CS2227), the test will ask for which printer to print to instead of assuming the mounted printer.

*AR The view customer account/history screen could get an error 94,20 on the INVHIS file, if the system had the O/E programs available but has only P/I data in the current company, and the user hits F4 to see invoice
detail. This has been corrected.

*AR The statement printing has been enhanced to ask for a printer# when doing test prints from forms maintenance, even when the control file says forms are always mounted and has a pre-set printer entered.

*AR The history/statement printing would fail, when the customer range was set to a single customer, and trying to esend when the paper printer was set to the same printer as the esend printer. This has been corrected.

*AR The statement/history selection has been enhanced so that when using esend, the paper printer field enforces picking a paper printer and  the esend printer field enforces picking an esend printer. You can only  pick any type of printer when the other media type is set to "skip” those customers.

*GL In GL, when printing a historical financial statement with CS2453 enabled,  the Retained earnings would show wrong amount. This has been corrected.

*IC Item maintenance would, for an item that has no product number, do nothing when attempting to use the Shift-F5 key to jump to the vendor item screen. It will now explain that the item needs a product number.

*IC The inventory recalc function has been enhanced to allow use of the P for pdf printer.

*IC The inventory recalc function would use the previous item# when reporting a problem with the serial count. This has been corrected.

*OE Billing's control information screen has added a new flag, if you are using samco option 2319, which asks when you want to use the customer form: when eSending only, when printing paper only, or for both.

*OE The invoice print could, with samco option 2319 turned on, remember the contacts specified in the last form print if the last print was cancelled. This has been corrected.

*PS The ticket entry could take a ticket off hold, and if it was put on hold by another screen, and that screen still had the print options showing, then taking the ticket off hold would not have any line items. This has been corrected, and a message added to indicate when a ticket is still in the process of being put on hold.

*RW The print functions would still use the term "fax" when referring to the esend feature. This has been corrected.

*RW The gui interface would, as of 14.07.35.192, display the startup screen momentarily when exiting the software. This has been corrected.

Current Release 35.194 (14.07)
May 10 2021

*AP The comparison to GL report would treat transfer vouchers as positive transactions instead of negative. This has been corrected.

*AP The comparison to GL report would skip some GL entries. This has been corrected.

*AP In AP, Open item history, an option to include items past the aging date has been added.

*DX 850 import has been enhanced to check D/X customer record for  partner id to see if this partner is in test mode.

*DX 850 import would use the D/X customer separator characters even when the override flag was set to no. This has been corrected.

*DX The order export has been enhanced so that if the document is using X12 format, it will create an entry for that document (ASN, Invoice) in the X12 acknowledgement log, for later 997 documents to update with accept
or reject status.

*DX The order export now supports "full street" fields which combine both street addresses (from before the city) into one field, to make creating an edi document easier.

*DX The order import has been enhanced to allow import of the terms code field.

*DX The order export formats entry function has been enhanced to now include a flag in the edi details window, for whether the export should treat credit memo values as negative or not.

*IC Item maintenance could get a 94,20 error on the PAVITF file when setting  a product number to blank, if the item had a prime vendor set but not using vendor items. This has been corrected.

*IC The status maintenance has been enhanced so that if the primary location code is changed, it will be pushed into all O/E line item records so that their picking tickets can sort correctly when sorting by location code, instead of referencing the old location from when the line was added.

*OE A new flag to print batch invoices in one PDF or individual PDF file has been added.

*OE The label copy could, as of level 14.07.35.051, fail to copy the specified label format. This has been corrected.

*OE The samco feature for order status can be set in the user defined form, so the order status changes when you print the form. This status can be different between order types. The auto-copy feature would overwrite the status of the other types, when a change was made in the body of  the form. This has been corrected.

*OE The order entry could get into a record in use message about the station file that would not go away, when using station order numbers and the samco option for tracking deleted orders was RM:in use. This has been corrected.

*OE The packing label template feature was enhanced to add %PROSHIPNO% and %CUSTDEPT% fields.

*PA The immediate form print feature for transfer printing could leave the message "Form XXXXX requires a printer id" on the screen overlapping with screen prompts in a gui environment. This has been corrected.

*RW The gui screen drop down menu for I/C reports would go to the wrong report for some entries. This has been corrected.

*RW The print functions would print dashed lines for the headers instead of printing unbroken horizontal lines, even when the printer supports the horizontal line. This has been corrected.

*RW The gui screen interface would, with field mode turned off, insert a carriage return after each character when pasting from the clipboard. This has been corrected.

*RW The user maintenance field for default printer has been enhanced to allow P for pdf as one of the options.

Current Release 35.193 (14.07)
Apr 07 2021

*AR The statement printing, when samco option 2618 is enabled, will have an option to include P/I invoices/credit memo with the statement when emailing to a customer.

*DX The extended D/X import for edi 850 documents, would (when trying to process a segment) try to process the segment field, even if the “If" segment is false. This has been corrected.

*RW The main eSend function has been enhanced to support the ability to merge extra pdf files into the one pdf file created from the report (or form) being printed.

*PC The report menu function for reprint of archived forms (samco option 2488) would only allow access if the user record specified ability to print checks, not for any of the other forms. This has been corrected.

*PI The P/I invoice print would, when the samco option 2488 is on, only create the archive if the print was to the eSend printer. This has been corrected.

*PI The P/I quote print would, when the samco option 2488 is on, only create the archive if the print was to the eSend printer. This has been corrected.

*SA The Sales Analysis User Defined report, when the item qty on hand samco option is in use, items that do not have sales in a specified period will will also be included in that report.

Current Release 35.192 (14.07) 
Mar 24 2021

*PC The releve 1 master for the 20EMP form would show the maximum value in the QPIP box even if the maximum had not been reached. This has been corrected.

*AP The manual payments edit list/register could show prepayment applications as manual checks if they were in the same batch for the same vendor as a manual check. This has been corrected.

*AP The A/P comparison to GL has been enhanced to hide records that balance by date when sorted by date.

*AP The Change vendor number utility now logs the number change for tracking purposes.

*AP The AP transaction entry has been enhanced so that when entering a check, whether a quick check, a prepayment or a non-ap check, the history will be reviewed to see if this check# (with this date and cash account) has already been used. If so, a message appears notifying about this. This is a protected message so hitting enter will take the user back to the entry when adding (or undo the last change, when changing existing data) so that the values can be made unique. If the F2 key is used, then the duplicate information will be allowed.

*AP The void check function will now show the vendor number associated with the specified check. If there is more than one vendor, ie more than one check, screen will ask for which vendor's check to void. The vendor number can be set to All in order to get the old behaviour, where the check is treated as one check, despite multiple vendors, and all the vouchers are reinstated.

*AP The check register, view by check number, view vendor invoices, and vendor history report would show the document type for a voided online payment as an online payment. This has been corrected.

*AR The A/R comparison to GL has been enhanced to hide records that balance by date when sorted by date.

*AR The Change customer number utility now logs the number change for tracking purposes.

*AR In AR, Customer list, exporting UDF values failed for non-contiguous UDF field definitions. This has been corrected.

*BR The BR Bank account report can now use the export printer.

*CM The new contact entry screen fields for whether to eSend forms, will now warn the user if they try to pick an email option and the contact has no email address, or a fax option and the contact has no fax number.

*DX The order template entry screen could have bad tag numbers in the field detail screen. This has been corrected.

*GL In G/L, File utilities, an option was added to ensure the GL Reference field matches the customer or vendor number.

*IC The change item number utility now logs the number change for tracking purposes.

*IC The find item functions options for showing order detail and for showing purchase order detail have been enhanced to check the extended functions menu password for the same functions. If they are disabled in the
extended functions, then they will be disabled in the find item window as well.

*IC The P/A forms print field for "item bar code" has been enhanced to be aware of samco option 2239, which allows setting a print flag on a specific barcode, so it will print rather than simply the first one in the table.

*IC The inventory register would print the transactions from all users, even though post by user was enabled, when posting was started from the P/A module. This has been corrected.

*IC The I/C Valuation report would, if the new item cost history file is in use, use the posting date to determine the cost instead of the document date. This has been corrected.

*OE Samco option 2605, for transport codes, would not carry the transport code and settings forward when samco option 2535 for linked items is also used to automatically create a 2nd line item. This has been
corrected.

*OE The immediate invoice print window will now appear if the esend printer cannot be set, due to forms in the chain all having their embedded printers pre-set.

*OE The immediate invoice print window would, when the change printer option was chosen for a second time, default back to the master default, rather than the value chosen the first time. This has been corrected.

*OE In the Orders line item entry screen an in-transfer qty field has been  added.

*OE The O/E forms print added a field for "Item bar code (dflt)" which is aware of samco option 2239, which allows setting a print flag on a  specific barcode, so it will print that one rather than simply the first one in the table. With the option off, it WILL print the first barcode.  

*OE The invoice print would (as of level 14.07.35.190), when sending ROA documents or credit memos via eSend, use the order number instead of the invoice number in the email/fax header. This has been corrected.

*OE The invoice print would ask for esend information, even if the esend printer had been changed to a normal printer. This has been corrected.

*PA The P/A forms print field for "item bar code" has been enhanced to be aware of samco option 2239, which allows setting a print flag on a specific barcode, so it will print that one rather than simply the first one in the table.

*PA The Purchasing Transfer edit list can now use the export printer.

*PA The Purchasing Open transfer report can now use the export printer.

*PI In Professional Invoicing, invoices can now be emailed to a customer.

*PI In Professional Invoicing, quotes can now be emailed to a customer.

*PI In Professional Invoicing, exact copies of invoices and quotes are now archived and can be reprinted on demand.

*PS The ticket print would, when using a system printer rather than directly using a device and the form was not using the "force column" feature, fail to advance the page when the line item section filled up. This has been corrected.

*RW The system could, in some text entry boxes, when the Esc key was pressed and the choice box came up to restart or continue, ignore the choice and restart anyway. This has been corrected.

*RW User maintenance could get an error 94,20 on the WHSFIL.DAT file if the inventory module is not turned on in the company. This has been corrected.

Current Release 35.191 (14.07) 
Feb 25 2021

*AR The cash receipts application screen window for "alt entry screen” would reduce the displayed amount remaining by the amount of the current document if hit F1 for default amount in the pay flag column, and continue reducing if hit F1 again. This has been corrected.

*AR The credit card information can now be changed one field at a time but  all information remains encrypted.

*AR The A/R distribution to G/L report could, when using the selection field for a single journal id, pick up an extra record from another journal. This has been corrected.

*AR The A/R distribution to G/L report has been enhanced to show the percentage complete while building the work file.

*FP In Fishpro, Control information, the "WCB maximum" field now allows entry of up to 6 digits and 2 decimal places amount.

*IC In IC, Physical count, Import count, pressing Tab now navigates back to the menu.

*IC The item label template feature added a new field for todays date, called %SYSDATE%.

*IC The item entry screen function for multiple barcode entry would show the prompts for the barcode entry field in the main window instead of the barcode window. This has been corrected.

*OE The auto archive of linked forms would create an archive even if the print version of the form got suppressed.  
This has been corrected.

*OE In an RMA, always serialized item serial number entry can now be exited  without canceling the line item entry.

*PA In Purchasing, when auto archiving is enabled and printing a form, if the form being printed is linked to another form, the first form prints out repeatedly. This has been corrected.

*PA In Purchasing, Transfer Out/In, using the find warehouse function and selecting the "Central" warehouse would not work. This has been corrected.

*PA In Purchasing, View, Transfers, using the find warehouse function and selecting the "Central" warehouse would not work. This has been corrected.

*PC The calculate deductions would, when processing "extra" cpp or eic or qpip (entered manually in the same place regular time is entered), correctly calculate the check amount, but the correspoding BNK transaction and it's resulting GL distributions, would not include the extra deductions. This has been corrected.

*PS The ticket entry lookup of orders and layaways would, when trying to search by name, and the on-disk name had lower-case letters, fail to find the ticket by the name. This has been corrected.

*SA In Sales Analysis, the User Defined Report would do processing for samco option CS2609 even when not needed, causing the report to slow down. This has been corrected.

Current Release 35.190 (14.07)
Jan 25 2021

*AP The quick check entry screen that asks for cash account, check number, etc, would display the "(none)" literal on the wrong line if the F1 key was used in the comment field. This has been corrected.

*AR The cash receipts application screen's "Alt entry screen" which shows a table of the outstanding open items, would increase the running balance in the amount remaining field every time the F1 feature for automatically setting the "amount to pay" was used on an open item that had already been marked to pay. This has been corrected.

*AR In cash receipt entry the "Check/Auth#" field can now be changed.

*AR In cash history, purging of cash receipt records no longer deletes cash deposit records.

*DX In Global DX, Item import, sale prices fields were added.

*GL In GL, the financial statements were enhanced to show comparatives even when Year end has not even been run yet for the current accounting period.

*IC In item list by item description, exporting the report to file excludes the user fields. This has been corrected.

*IC The find serial number function prompt line entry field would logically overlap with the last letter of the "F5=All" prompt, so the entry field pre-populated with the "l" character. This has been corrected.

*IC The handheld physical count has been updated to help avoid conflicts with changes by other users.

*IC Samco option 2046, for load serial numbers, would not see the list of serial numbers for the current item, if the find feature ("?") was used in the serial number field. This has been corrected. 

*IC In item maintenance if a user has a default warehouse assigned, the item prices and cost come from that warehouse.

*IC In item list by item number, exporting the report to file excludes the user defined fields. This has been corrected.

*IC The group price change can now be run using zero as a percentage or a dollar amount change, if the rounding is set to something other than none. Old prices now print directly below new prices when maximum prices count
is less than 4. Items that will not change any price nor costs will now be excluded from
the report.

*OE In Billing, Order entry, RMAs now have the option to print picking ticket.

*OE The quick shipping label extended function would not display the city, state, and zip fields properly when editing the address. This has been corrected.

*PC The T4 and T4 history print functions could, when the 20OTH form is used, and an employee is printed who requires a 2nd T4 to handle all the other income amounts, print overlapping T4 values on the next forms.
This has been corrected.

*PC The T4 and T4A printouts would, as of 14.07.35.189, print the other amounts with the wrong box number. The box number would be the number of the next other amount in the list. This has been corrected.

*PC The calculate deductions funtion, special option 1525 for alternate union dues calculation, has been changed to start reducing tax.

*RW The level update for 32.005 would get a 94,02 error on the PSLINF. This has been corrected.

*RW The level update for 34.086 would get a 94,02 error on the STAFIL. This has been corrected.

*RW The "about" option, which is also available via F4 from any menu, has been enhanced to show the installed date below the build date.

*RW The system would, when mirroring reports printed to screen, store them with too many lines per page, causing the reprint/redisplay logic to show them incorrectly. This has been corrected.

*RW When selecting an eSend printer by mistake, then canceling the eSend, the system would not redisplay the printer selection window. This has been corrected.

*RW The system could introduce non-printing characters (such as tab character)  into text fields, when the mouse right-click paste option is used. This has been corrected.

*RW The system could "overfill" a field, when pasting via the ctrl-v key or the edit menu, if the clipboard had more text than the field would normally allow. The field would drop the text once the enter key was used, but would look odd until then. This has been corrected.

*RW The system copy feature would, when copying from a field on the main underlying screen, while a pop-up window is showing, actually grab text from the screen line below where the selection box displays. This has 
been corrected.

*RW In user maintenance, a user can now be assigned a default warehouse.  The item prices in item maintenance and in item status will come from the default warehouse.

*SA The S/A user defined report could blank out the tag number for "Include components". This has been corrected.

Current Release 35.189 (14.07) 
Dec 22 2020

*GL The general journal transaction entry could, as of 14.07.35.188, get a message about perform stack overflow, after entering a lot of transactions without exiting the screen. This has been corrected.

*OE The immediate invoice print window would, as of 14.07.35.188, appear for the main order entry screens processing regular O type orders, if tills are in use. This has been changed so that if there are till printers for non-invoice forms, the window will appear and only show those printers. But if there are no valid printers in the till, the
window will not be opened at all.

*PC The Record of Employment printout could, as of 14.07.35.188, get an error 90,01 on the PLQFIL. This has been corrected.

*SA The user defined report would, if the fields chosen fit into 132 columns exactly, still automatically switch to the 220 column mode. This has been corrected.

Current Release 35.188 (14.07) 
Dec 16 2020

*PC The form processing field for "RL1 orig/amend flag" has changed to say "Original/amend code" to better reflect the fact that it is also used for T4 and T4A printing.

*AP A/P Check register can now be printed to file, pdf, html and to screen when posting AP Checks.

*AP In A/P Pre-check writing report, vendors with EFT set up but not activated will show as being paid by cheque or online.

*AP In A/P, individual voucher selection for payment, vendors with EFT set up but not activated can only be paid by cheque or online payment.

*AP In vendor maintenance, an Electronic Funds Transfer active flag was added. This new flag is used to turn off sending funds transfers even if the bank account information has been entered. This would leave the options for
printing a paper check, or using online payment.

*AR The cash application detail window would reset a manually entered discount amount back to the default (from terms) discount amount. This has been corrected.

*AR The cash application detail window has been enhanced so that the amount applied column now has an F2 option to allow resetting the discount back to default values. Also, an F5 option was added to that field so the discount window, with the allowance and reference, could be set before having to decide on the amount to apply, so the default amount (available via the F1 key) would include those amounts.

*AR Sales Register can now be printed to file, pdf, or screen when posting.

*AR The historical statement print would, if the user had not yet set the printed flag on the history open items (by saying Y to statements printed are okay), show those after the balance forward line. This has been corrected.

*BR The transfer function would, when any bank account is set up to use summary method for EFT transfer, try to use A/P and Payroll funds transfer files, failing if they do not exist. This has been corrected.

*CB The submission function has been enhanced to count the closed entries marked for sumission, and limit them to 50.

*IC In I/C Control information, if purpose codes are used, a valid purpose code is now mandatory.

*IC The inventory menu would, when samco option 2373 is enabled, put the recycling menu option on the second page of the menu, rather than on the bottom of the first page. This has been corrected.

*IC Detailed Inventory Register can now be printed to file, pdf and to screen when posting.

*IC In "Work orders, Print work orders", print to file, pdf, html and screen printers been enabled.

*OE In batch invoice printing, when Samco option 2488 is enabled, the archiving of forms could cause system printers using the windows spooler selection window to ask for the target printer multiple times. The archiving process now only starts if the invoices were confirmed to have printed successfully.

*OE When copying invoice from history into a new order, the "Release-to” field value has now been excluded in the new order.

*OE Audit reports like registers can now be printed to screen, file, html or pdf.

*PA In P/A Control information, a default purpose code entry field was added. This field is mandatory if purpose codes are used in I/C.

*PA A/P Check register can now be printed to file, pdf, html and to screen when posting AP Checks.

*PA In the Purchasing Transfer reconciliation posting screen, if purpose codes are used I/C, the Adjustment Account entry field is replaced with the  purpose code entry.

*PC The control information function's various extra-information windows would display prompts in the wrong locations and not clear them properly. This has been corrected.

*PC The TD1 details entry by table has been enhanced so that the Fed-claim and Prv-claim column headings have been right justified to line up with the data, and also changed to FedClaim and ProvClaim so the province claim amount is easier to recognise.

*PC The employee maintenance screen for other accumulators would, when run in gui mode, leave blank boxes on the screen as you arrow down the list. This has been corrected.

*PC Check register can now be printed to file, pdf, html and to screen when posting checks.

*PC Payroll transactions can now be printed to file, pdf, html and to screen when posting.

*RW The print functions have been enhanced so that if the user gets a "printer in use" message, then the name of the report the other user is printing is displayed in addition to their user id.

*RW The print function message for printer in use could have the input field occur inside the text of the message rather than after it. This has been corrected.

*IC Inventory's Sale prices screen would, when using warehouse costing, display the default item costs and prices instead of the warehouse costs and prices. This has been corrected.

*IC The inventory register with detail will now print the vendor number if one is available.

*IC The inventory register would, when posted from another module, still display a warning about "no inventory transactions in range selected” if there were other inventory transactions already on file. This has
been corrected so the message will not display.

*IC When copying an item, the new item is now automatically marked as an active item.

*IC The Recalculate inventory quantity function could set the quantity commit incorrectly for serialized items when using in-transit warehouses. This has been corrected.

*OE The billing select screen for line item entry would, if the customer went over their credit limit and the user was viewing a line, allow the user to select the "cancel line" option without checking to see if a
customs document had been printed/generated, so a supervisor override was not asked for. This has been corrected.

*OE The orders enter screen for line item entry would, if the customer went over their credit limit and the user was viewing a line, allow the user to select the "cancel line" option without checking to see if a customs document had been printed/generated, so a supervisor override was not asked for. This has been corrected.

*OE The order/7512 recall screen has been enhanced so that instead of simply saying "duplicate record" when the order number was already in the submission list, it will now tell the user that the order# was already in the submission list and it would need to be retracted first. The submission screen has a similar change.

*OE The form printing has been enhanced to allow 200 feature codes rather than just 100 feature codes.

*OE The rapid entry screen could get "order in use by XXX" message when it really wasn't. This has been corrected.

*OE Order Entry would, when changing the customer on an existing order to one over their credit limit, still proceed with the order even when you specify not to. This has been corrected.

*PA Changing the product number of an item would create a new vendor item record instead of modifying the existing one. This has been corrected.

*PA The transfer in screen would, when the in-transit warehouse was in use and the transfer out was deleted and the item had serial numbers attached to it, fail to put those serial numbers into the reversing
inventory transfer that is created to move the stock from the in-transit warehouse and back into the from warehouse. This has been corrected.

*PA The transfer in entry function would not correctly commit serial numbers. This has been corrected.

*PA The transfer out entry of serial numbers now allows ? to bring up the serial number find window. It defaults to just available serial numbers and just those in the "from" warehouse.

*PA The transfer out handling for serial numbers would not commit them. This has been corrected.

*PA The transfer out serial number window would not update the serial numbers remaining count. This has been corrected.

*RW The eSend feature for saving the last message in the faxmemo/LASTxxx.FAX file would leave the space in if the initials XXX were less than 3 characters, causing the system to be unable to find it afterwards. This has been corrected.

*RW The eSend feature for loading a memo has been enhanced to replace the
old creation date and time with the current date and time.

Current Release 35.171 (14.07) 
Sep 26 2019

*IC The inventory entry screen could say "invalid item" when in actual fact only the user record cost flags prevent viewing costs for that item. The message has been changed to say: You are not authorized to see costs for this item.

*IC The inventory entry screen would only show the total quantity available (in all warehouses) tag when the transaction was a warehouse transfer. This has been corrected.

*OE The feature codes for .1LFT and .1RGT would not work when the force column position feature was turned on, even when they were set to the same column position as the field that needed to be shifted. This has been corrected.

*PC The employment type code field has been expanded to include types 15 thru 17, and the entry now uses a selection window.

*AR The statement printing would only set the printed flag of the first payment open item, when a cash receipt is applied to multiple open items, and the statement criteria says to show the payment total rather
than all the apply detail. This has been corrected.

*BR The bank reconciliation screen has been changed so that void and stop payment records can now be "cleared" like regular documents. They  will remain in the list until cleared. Once cleared, they are attached
to that reconciliation date. The "*void*" mark (and the "*stop* mark)  have moved from the cleared-date column to the opposite amount column.

*OE Billing could, for a newly created company, not record invoice history files. This has been corrected.

*OE The EDI option for enable/disable edi status would not show if the user did not have access to the D/X module function for EDI customers.

*PC The year end screen would, when warning about the last time it was run, display that date in non-standard format YY/MM/DD, which could be confusing. The screen now uses format MM/DD/CCYY.

*SA The sales analysis user defined report would ignore the key range on the detail item if item number was used as a sub-total and the range of items was first to last. This has been corrected.

*SA The sales analysis user defined report would, after reading a saved set of parameters, keep the record locked preventing a second user from using that same set of parameters. This has been corrected.

*SA The sales analysisy user defined report has been enhanced to use the standard counter system, so that internet use of the report will not experience slow downs due to the counter being updated too often.

void-check's date for the distribution date instead of the actual distribution date. This has been corrected

*AR Accounts ReceivableThe cash transaction entry could create an incorrect unposted record that gets left behind if the transaction is deleted. This has been corrected.

*MS Multisite The mailtouser.sh script has been enhanced to support -a <file> as an option to attach a file to the email.

*CB Custom Bonded The customs bonded document processing would not find the inbond number in the response (C1) to an inbond query (CQ). This has been corrected.

*GL General Ledger The general journal edit list could get a fatal file error 96 when sorting by document number and suppressing the zero balance documents, and all documents get suppressed. This has been corrected.

*GL General Ledger The extended trial balance would only show the processing date column when  the processing date was outside the current reporting period. This has  been corrected.

*IC Inventory Management  The change item number function would, if the import file option was  used, try to display more than the first 10 entries, and could get an index out of bounds error. This has been corrected.

*IC Inventory Management Inventory Control The change item number function would allow the "to" item# to be the  same as the from item#. This has been corrected.

*IC Inventory Management The change item number function would rename/merge the item record in the middle with the other files instead of waiting until the end. This was a problem if the process got interrupted and had to be resumed, so the item file is now processed last.

*IC Inventory Management The item history function to adjust history from status has been changedto use the standard record counter logic instead of showing the item# and date of the transactions currently being processed, as this is more efficient.

*IC Inventory Management The Price list in Inventory now allows you to specify to show items that are active or inactive only.

*IC Inventory Management The inventory posting could skip adjustment transactions created by the billing module and they would have to be posted separately. This has been corrected.

*IC Inventory Management The inventory transaction posting could, when two offsetting transactions have a cost which is right on the rounding boundary of 1/2 cent, end up with a leftover penny due to rounding twice. This has beencorrected.

*OE Billing The Find Order window now uses the A and D hotkeys to sort ascending or descending.

*OE Billing The view invoice history function to view by invoice number would include component line values in the invoice total, if the invoice had a miscellaneous kit on it. This has been corrected.

*OE Billing The rapid entry (and retail entry) screen would set the order status  from incomplete to complete (or selected) when tab out of the line adding to get to the totals section at the bottom even if the user resumed adding more lines. This has been corrected so the order status remains incomplete until after exiting the entry screen for that order.

*OE Billing Order Entry would not update the salesman when pressing F1 to show the next ship-to address for the customer. This has been corrected.

*OE Billing The orders enter function would not mark the order as in use, when the order was found using the F1 or Shift-F1 options. This has been corrected.

*RW The print to screen was making the second dashed line of the headers brown instead of black. This has been corrected.

*SC The find tickets function has been enhanced to show a counter when building the work file, purging it, and when paging up/down (using a filter) so that when a large # of records have been loaded, any delays are
still giving feeback about progress.

*IC The item maintenance would not allow a supplier number be the same as the item number, even though it is common to use a supplier's part number as one's own. This has been corrected.

*OE The line item entry could set the quantity committed wrong if the item was lot controlled, and the option inside the lot allocation window was used for changing the line quantities, then after the line was finished the user pressed F5 to select a line. This has been corrected.

*OE The billing posting would allow the selection of an eSend printer as the device to send reports to, but it would ask for the eSend information multiple times, allowing the user to tab out without specifying designation information, and causing the reports to be lost. This has been Changed - The eSend printer option has been removed from the selection  window for the billing option for Post Invoices.

*PA The find vendor item function (?2 in the item# field when processing a PO) has been enhanced to show both the vendor item# and the inventory item# and to show column headings so it is easy to tell which is which.
