Below is the complete list of 3.11 major features, enhancements, and fixes:

MAJOR NEW FEATURES:

  • BOM Quote Worksheet UI revamp
    • Columns are now show/hide
    • Part description is now available to show/hide
    • Addition of left side-nav menu
  • Pieces per hour option for time estimate
    • On Data Maint » Build Operation table, there is now a flag for “pieces per hour”
    • If this is selected, then when that BuildOp is selected on a Labor Plan, then the “repetitions” input will be replaced by a “pieces per hour” input.
    • If you select this flag, then you should input 3600 seconds (one hour) for that BuildOperation.
    • This has the effect of dividing time input by number of pieces input, instead of multiplying time by the Qty on order for the part’s labor estimate.
    • This is useful for estimating machine throughput time on labor plans.

OTHER ENHANCEMENTS

  • Order that puts customer over credit limit now puts order on credit hold

  • Added retained earnings filter to Statement of Cash Flows financial report.

  • Speed optimization for invoice commissions report.

  • Added logic to cutoff work location movement tracking at time of invoice (order closure) instead of retaining it indefinitely.

  • Made Prcpart and Description sortable on Order List; made bin column sortable on inventory list by bin.

  • Added logic to close any open part requests created from a work order if/when that work order ships/invoices/closes.

  • Added tax group column to sales history report (invoice list)

  • Open permissions of ProductionOnly user role to allow issuance of part requests

  • WIP Material report is now exportable to Excel

  • Added “moved on” date to production -> order -> list to see when an order entered its work location (“Show Prod Mgmt?” needs to be checked in order to see “Moved On”)

  • Added PO Line dock date to PO Line Receipt history report

  • NCR bonus columns are now filterable on NCR report

  • New default GL mapping now exists for RMA Credit Memos (set in Admin > Config Settings > GL Transaction Settings)

  • If an order is linked to an NCR, you can now block shipment of that order until NCR is closed/resolved.

  • Tightened controls around partial shipment % ratio relieve; System will now check to ensure “qty relieve” of inventory is correctly proportionate to amount being closed/shipped, otherwise complete/receive and/or invoice will error/alert.

  • Recommendation to enable “Stop Underpick Invoice” config to ensure inventory relief is in concert with partial complete/receive and partial shipment.

  • New scrap management tool. If you have a BUILD order for Qty 50, and 2 fail inspection and are scrapped, you may close the entire line item for Qty 50, while marking the Qty 2 as scrap, which will invoice the passing Qty 48 per normal invoice backflushing process to the order, while adjusting the Qty 2 (and all its component inventory that was picked for those Qty 2 BOMs) with a certain inventory adjustment reason code. This tool can be accessed via the Close Line/All tab (left side-nav) of an order.

  • Chart of accounts report, when filtered by comparison dates, will now show credits/debits as columns for reporting.

  • Work List is now an available document to be batch printed from Release To Print/Pick screen.

  • Added ability to see credit memos on a customer’s AR statement

  • Added new “hold” flag to set on vendor record; vendor master report allows you to filter on this hold flag.

  • Customer Backlog Report shows open order backlog by customer in 30-60-90-120 day “buckets”. You can customize the “buckets” of days with this config setting - Customer - Backlog Aging Buckets

  • Speed optimization to WIP Material report

  • You can now search the usage log by how many seconds a request took to complete loading.

  • Non-inventory parts can now be required to be received before allowing vouchering. You can set this requirement flag as a default on the part record, or on the pquote/PO line. If this flag is set, then the PO line won’t be selectable on voucher, only PO line receipt.

  • Sales Quotes and Orders will now display other users currently viewing the page.

  • Account list now displays a collapsible hierarchy similar to the Balance Sheet and the P&L.
