Version 5.0.8 ready for release
April 10, 2008
The latest version of Data Entrée's Foodservice Distribution Software, v. 5.0.8, has been tested and is being deployed.
New features include:
- Purchase Order:
- A Total Cube figure now appears at the bottom of the printed PO if the total cube is not zero.
- The quantity totals were not printing at the bottom of the PO when the option to exclude prices is selected.
- Users are now prevented from adding inactive items to POs.
- Purchase Order Report:
- The report now sorts properly, displaying purchase orders in order by PO number or by vendor and then PO number, depending on which option the user selects.
- Be aware: The PO number field is an alpha-numeric field, so PO numbers might not always sort as you would expect numbers to sort. For instance, PO # 1442 will come before PO # 203. This is because the computer is reading the “number” left to right as if it were a word, and “1” comes before “2” when sorting is applied.
- The options to select dates in the Select Relevant PO Date section are not sorting options. They are there to allow you to choose which date to reference when determining whether the PO falls within the selected date range for the report. So selecting a different date option under Select Relevant PO Date will not change how the POs are sorted on the report, but it might change which POs appear on the report based on the date range you selected.
- A bug was also fixed that caused cases and units not to be displayed properly under certain circumstances.
- AP Entry Form:
- When you delete an AP entry, the system now keeps the header record so you have documentation that the AP entry had been created and a reference to a PO, if there was any.
- Schedule A/P Payments:
- There is now a discount column for informational purposes. This column shows the discount from the AP entry without regard to any date. That is, it will always show the discount amount regardless of when payments are being scheduled or other timing factors.
- Inventory File Maintenance:
- Changes have been made to the On Hand tab on the Inventory File Maintenance form. The Allocated and WIP fields will now show a negative number for outgoing inventory. The WIP field will show a positive number if un-posted Processing Room entries total to a net gain for the inventory item (a larger quantity of the item in Finished Goods than in Raw Materials). Also, a bug has been fixed that caused inventory items set to Sell By Unit to display incorrectly in the On Hand fields.
- Picklists:
- There is now a checkbox on the Miscellaneous tab of the Configuration File Maintenance form which allows you to switch between sorting your picklists by bin number and sorting them by item number. If you enter bin numbers, the system default is to sort your picklists by the bin numbers first and then the item number. If you deselect the Sort Picklists by Bin Number checkbox the system will always sort by item number.
- Inventory Price Books Report:
- This report now looks at the Price Digits setting in the Inventory File Maintenance form to determine how many decimal places should be displayed on the report for each item.
- Remit-to Address:
- In the Configuration File Maintenance form you can now specify whether the remit-to address is printed on invoices and/or statements, for those who may already have the remit-to address pre-printed on their forms.
- Order Entry:
- The bug that allowed the user to change items on a posted invoice using the F8 form has been fixed. Also, the GP% markup field on the F8 form now restricts input to a range of 0 to 99.
- Checks:
- The system now remembers the last check number used and suggests the next check number as the Beginning Check Number in the Process Disbursements form.
