The Press Run Rate Tables are now able to use Net Impressions or Run Sheets in addition to Quantity to affect the run rate of a job. This can be updated in the Press Standard Screen.
Print Calculator now editable in a Multi Quantity Estimate
Print Calculators are now editable from within the edit panel of a multiple quantity estimate. This applies only to print calculators right now, wide format and multi part will be added in coming releases. A point to note here is that additional services cannot be added to a calculator from this area, but they can be deleted. In the screenshot below note the rocket launch icon is now available.
Unpaid Balance Limit Functionality (Credit Limit)
When Payment Processing is enabled in your Midnight system, you now have the option to introduce a limit on a customer's unpaid order balances. The unpaid balance limit can be defined in the CRM screen for any active customer on the Open Orders tab.
When a user tries to create a new order, convert an estimate to an order or copy an order they will get a warning letting the user know that this customer has exceeded their unpaid balance limit.
Unpaid Balance Widget
Users now have a new widget available to them to be able to view customers with an unpaid balance and limit.
Inventory Import/Update Tool
The inventory Import tool is located in a new section under the Tools tab called Data Import. This tool will allow a user to import, update and undo an import, all using a predefined csv file format downloadable from the import page. Imports can be undone for a period of 24 hours.
Cutter Pricing based on # of Cuts
With the introduction of the number of cuts field in 6.9.3, users can now decide to price the cutter based on time per lift, or the new lifts per hour metric. This new option is available in the paper cutter admin located in Admin>Print>Paper Cutters.
When cuts per hour is the selected costing method the calculator will use the cuts per hour field instead of the time per lift costing method that was previously the only option available.
Wide Format Laminate and Mount materials added to inventory tab
When users use the wide format calculator they will now notice that along with the main print material being added to the inventory ta, laminate and mounting material will also be added to the jobs inventory tab.
Version Suffix Column in the DJB
The version suffix column is now available for customers to select if they want to be able to sort by this data source.
Pagination for Customer Contacts
Due to a growing number of customers having a large number of contacts in their customer records we have added pagination to this tab. This will help with being able to search through large numbers of contacts as well as significantly speeding up the page.

Permissions have been added to the apply discount button in estimate departments. This can be applied in Admin>Security>Create Role Rite>Estimate
