Released December 19, 2014

ENHANCEMENTS:

Orders / Issues Module Enhancement: The Issues Module, accessed from any order, had several updates.
–Issue Search Page:
– Added Close Date column. Anything that has a close date should not be visible by default in the search results. A new extended search was added where one can search via closed Issues.

–Issue Page:
– Added a label on the page showing who created the issue.
– In the header of the page, it now displays the issue number when creating a new Issue.
– After selecting a customer, you will only see open orders for that customer.
– If initiating an issue while in an order (not from search screen), then the customer dropdown will automatically populate and not be editable. Order number will work the same way.
– Added a field named Department. This populates with your Service Type Admin table values and lets you further define where the issue took place.
– Email is now optional and is set up in Admin/Global Settings/Estimates and Reports tab. You can turn on/off email notification of new Issue creation by providing one more email addresses.

Pickup/Delivery Enhancement: This page is available from the Order/Shipping tab, and the Inventory Module.
–Pickup/Delivery Search Page:
– Added Order # column after Company name column (This is the order # selected in header of request)
– Changed sort order from ascending to descending based on Request #
– Added paging
– Added ‘Requested By’ column so one can sort by the person who requested the Pick Up/Delivery.

Pickup/Delivery Page
– Removed message that was displayed after clicking save button.
– Removed ‘time’ from the Date Needed field and added it as an individual item below the Date Needed field.
– Added Requested By (employee dropdown) below Order #.
– Change “Request” column to “Requested Qty” in grid.
– Name of the report displayed in the reports box was changed from Packing Slip to Pickup/Delivery ticket.
– One can now create a pickup or delivery request from the Order/Shipping tab rather than just a delivery.

Estimates/Orders: You will notice a performance improvement on both estimates and orders after picking the customer and contact. On the order, you will also see a noticeable improvement on the Apply Funds page as well. Lastly, performance was optimized when selecting the contacts on the Shipping Tab of the Order.

Scheduling: The Orders to Load button and the Job Schedule button have been removed. These were legacy functions. The same information is available from the Dynamic Job Board (DJB).

API: Additional web service methods have been added allowing one to update postage and job costing information inside of an order. The OrderList method was provided additional input parameters.

Accounting: QuickBooks accounting export has been modified. We currently export postage affix, services applied and postage applied in our QuickBooks export file. If the GLID and Inv Item codes are NULL under the Postage Affix list, we will now exclude those items from the Quick Books export file. This will not negatively affect anyone currently using this export format.
