Productivity Enhancements<\/h2>\n
\nGeneral<\/h3>\n
User Setup as Card Page<\/strong><\/p>\n A separate screen is now available for the user setup, providing a clearer overview of the numerous configuration fields.<\/p>\n Exclude line quantities from availability<\/strong><\/p>\n When calculating availability on a line, the line quantity itself is now excluded. This logic, previously applied to sales orders, has been extended to assembly and production lines.<\/p>\n Manually start periodic activities<\/strong><\/p>\n Certain activities can be placed in a job queue via the SmartTrade setup. These activities can now also be executed directly from the setup page.<\/p>\n Start job queues as delegated admin<\/strong><\/p>\n A function has been added to the job queue card page allowing users to start an entry as a delegated admin.<\/p>\n Removal of basic\/premium distinction<\/strong><\/p>\n The distinction between premium and other functions in the SmartTrade settings has been removed.<\/p>\n Assembly orders drag and drop<\/strong><\/p>\n Resolved an issue where drag and drop attachments on assembly orders were not correctly transferred to the archive.<\/p>\n Volume calculation per outer packaging<\/strong><\/p>\n The SmartTrade purchase lines screen now displays the volume in cubic meters (m3) per outer packaging unit. Field is hidden by default and may be added through personalization.<\/p>\n Drag and drop support in production order screens<\/strong><\/p>\n Drag and drop functionality has been implemented across various production order list and card pages for easy access to store files connected to documents. This feature is only available in case Continia Document Capture is activated.<\/p>\n Display components in planning worksheet<\/strong><\/p>\n Component lines for production items can now be made visible directly in the planning worksheet. Users can configure via User Setup whether this is displayed in a factbox or directly below the planning lines.<\/p>\n Display availability in production orders<\/strong><\/p>\n At the bottom of production screens and overviews, lines can now be displayed directly with their availability status. This is configurable via user settings.<\/p>\n Direct display of component lines with status in production<\/strong><\/p>\n In production screens (released, planned, etc.), component lines are now directly visible along with their availability status.<\/p>\n Display component availability in planning worksheet<\/strong><\/p>\n The planning worksheet now allows for the direct display of all component lines, including their current availability status.<\/p>\n Display availability as text<\/strong><\/p>\n For users who prefer text over color-coded symbols, it is now possible to display availability information as a text field.<\/p>\n Promised delivery date in availability<\/strong><\/p>\n The promised receipt and delivery dates are displayed within the planning lines for availability per event and lot.<\/p>\n Inherit lot numbers on credit notes<\/strong><\/p>\n When creating a credit note for an item with lot tracking, the lot number is now immediately visible on the credit lines.<\/p>\n Include production quantities and components in lot availability<\/strong><\/p>\n Production orders and component lines are now visible within the availability per lot.<\/p>\n Single Lot and New Lot Availability features enabled by default<\/strong><\/p>\n The “New Lot Availability” and “Tracking at Line Level” functions are now enabled by default and are no longer optional features.<\/p>\n Sending EDI Credit Memos<\/strong><\/p>\n It is now possible to send EDI credit memos directly from Business Central.<\/p>\n Update EDI message after reading<\/strong><\/p>\n When reading an EDI message that lacks an invoice-to address, the system now retrieves the address based on the invoice customer. If still not found, it falls back to the invoice customer’s PO Box number.<\/p>\n Extended item texts in EDI orders<\/strong><\/p>\n Extended item texts are now included in orders created via EDI.<\/p>\n Display cost price sales cost excluded in factbox<\/strong><\/p>\n The calculation factbox now displays the cost price excluding sales costs such as last mile delivery. A separate field is available for cost including sales cost. This includes both direct and indirect sales costs.<\/p>\n Option to show only cost lines<\/strong><\/p>\n A button and shortcut key combination CTRL+K have been added to view the summary of an item line on a purchase or sales order, focusing on calculation lines.<\/p>\n Display covered exchange rate and status in factbox<\/strong><\/p>\n The status and exchange rate of a covered currency can now be made visible on the calculation factbox. This information is hidden by default.<\/p>\n Storage cost type selection<\/strong><\/p>\n Previously, a cost type calculation (e.g., interest, storage) could only be added once per cost type. An “Other Calculation” option has been added that can be used multiple times.<\/p>\n Visibility of messages per item<\/strong><\/p>\n Notifications and messages per item were previously only visible if entered with the same language code as the purchase or sales order. This dependency has been removed.<\/p>\n Display messages for assembly and production items<\/strong><\/p>\n Pop-up texts linked to an item are now displayed when entering assembly and production orders, provided the settings are correctly configured.<\/p>\n\t <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n\t Copy item with ‘Copy All’ option<\/strong><\/p>\n When selecting the “Copy All” option while copying an item, all SmartTrade-specific fields and checkboxes are now enabled as a logical consequence.<\/p>\n Content quantity error when copying items<\/strong><\/p>\n When copying an item, content fields and consumer unit information are now only included if related units are also copied.<\/p>\n Sorting and fields in document container screen<\/strong><\/p>\n The document\/container screen now opens with the correct sorting and includes the necessary fields on the card.<\/p>\n Application Area persistence<\/strong><\/p>\n Resolved an issue where the Manufacturing application area could disappear from the table even if enabled in the SmartTrade Setup.<\/p>\n Blanket contract changes and sales prices<\/strong><\/p>\n When a blanket contract was modified on a line, the new price was not retrieved if the line number remained unchanged.<\/p>\n Automatic population of cost type code in journals<\/strong><\/p>\n When selecting an account number in a general journal, the default linked cost code was not being inherited.<\/p>\n Margin calculation in foreign currency<\/strong><\/p>\n Margin calculations for orders in foreign currencies, which previously defaulted to 100% or 0, are now calculated correctly.<\/p>\n Currency revaluation critical error<\/strong><\/p>\n Fixed a critical error (entries not in balance) that occurred during currency revaluation when the “automatic” posting option was disabled.<\/p>\n VAT number in journal entries<\/strong><\/p>\n The VAT number of a location is now transferred to the general ledger entries.<\/p>\n Rounding of sales prices<\/strong><\/p>\n Corrected an issue where unit price rounding was incorrect when the sales price per consumer unit exceeded three decimal places.<\/p>\n Ship-to address selection from customer screen<\/strong><\/p>\n Resolved an issue where the ship-to address was cleared after selection when creating a document directly from the customer screen.<\/p>\n Customer change on order with ship-to address<\/strong><\/p>\n Changing the customer number on an order now clears the ship-to address, preventing potential validation errors.<\/p>\n Sales price based on delivery date<\/strong><\/p>\n Resolved an issue where sales prices on order lines were not correctly updated based on the requested delivery date at the line level. The system incorrectly defaulted to the requested delivery date from the order header, failing to apply date-specific pricing (e.g., price changes between February and March) when lines had different delivery dates.<\/p>\n Lead time calculation based on lead time fields<\/strong><\/p>\n Resolved an issue where planned and expected receipt calculations were not correctly utilizing lead time fields.<\/p>\n Goods in transit position<\/strong><\/p>\n Resolved issues where ETA, ERD, and vessel name fields were not consistently populated for incoming goods in the item position.<\/p>\n Transport time adjustments<\/strong><\/p>\n Adjusting transport times between entry and exit ports now updates the underlying lead times per item and vendor.<\/p>\n Calculation of purchase quantities<\/strong><\/p>\n Purchase quantities were not calculated if the “blanket contract” field was not enabled in the availability settings.<\/p>\n Adding purchase orders to second transport order<\/strong><\/p>\n When adding a purchase order to a new transport order, the transport order number was applied to lines already assigned to another transport order.<\/p>\n Update transport order in lines after posting<\/strong><\/p>\n When posting a transport order, the transport number was incorrectly applied to lines that were not part of the transport order.<\/p>\n Removing transport lines and container numbers<\/strong><\/p>\n When a purchase line is removed from a transport order, the associated container number is now also cleared.<\/p>\n Purchase price conversion per consumer unit<\/strong><\/p>\n Insufficient decimals were used when converting direct unit costs to a price per consumer unit, leading to incorrect direct unit cost per CU. This has been resolved.<\/p>\n Undo purchase receipt and lot tracking<\/strong><\/p>\n Corrected an issue where an incomplete purchase receipt line left an incorrect location code in the tracking line on the purchase order.<\/p>\n Transfer orders for undone purchase receipts<\/strong><\/p>\n When a purchase receipt was reversed and the order was subsequently re-posted, the negative adjustment line was incorrectly included in the transfer order. This has been fixed.<\/p>\n Transfer order creation issues<\/strong><\/p>\n Fixed issues in the creation of transfer order lines that previously resulted in duplicate lines within a container occasionally.<\/p>\n Opening transport info on transfers<\/strong><\/p>\n Fixed an error that occurred when opening a line in the availability for goods in transit where no transfer order existed.<\/p>\n Status on production orders<\/strong><\/p>\n Clearing the issue status on a production order now updates the associated status symbol and\/or colour.<\/p>\n Planning worksheet display<\/strong><\/p>\n The planning worksheet now displays planning lines instead of BOM component lines at the bottom of the screen.<\/p>\n Production line availability and remaining quantity<\/strong><\/p>\n Availability calculations for production order lines now use the remaining quantity instead of the production line quantity.<\/p>\n Production component availability and remaining quantity<\/strong><\/p>\n Availability for production components now uses the expected quantity instead of the remaining quantity.<\/p>\n Production quantities and finished orders<\/strong><\/p>\n Finished production orders were incorrectly included in availability calculations. These are now excluded.<\/p>\n Production availability with selection filter<\/strong><\/p>\n Users can now select multiple production orders and recalculate availability for the entire selection simultaneously.<\/p>\n Production line availability and location filtering<\/strong><\/p>\n Availability displays for production lines now respect the location filter.<\/p>\n Availability on firm planned production orders<\/strong><\/p>\n Corrected the logic for updating production order status when one or more components are unavailable.<\/p>\n Availability per event for production\/assembly<\/strong><\/p>\n Production and assembly lines were missing from the ‘Availability per Event’ view. They are now included.<\/p>\n Logistic planning colours<\/strong><\/p>\n Colours in the logistic planning screen now correspond consistently to the calculated values.<\/p>\n Availability colour on order lines<\/strong><\/p>\n Fixed an issue where order lines were marked as unavailable when the stock level exactly matched the order quantity.<\/p>\n Availability per event<\/strong><\/p>\n If the release status table was empty, a negative line was added to the availability for every inventory line.<\/p>\n Availability calculation after order quantity entry<\/strong><\/p>\n The availability status and colour are now recalculated immediately after entering a quantity on a sales order line.<\/p>\n Availability and blocked WMS bins<\/strong><\/p>\n The availability calculation now correctly accounts for inventory located in blocked bins.<\/p>\n Item position for damaged\/unavailable stock<\/strong><\/p>\n Items with inventory at an unavailable location (e.g., damage location) were not visible in the item availability overview. This has been corrected.<\/p>\n Multiple unavailable locations in availability<\/strong><\/p>\n Resolved an issue where multiple locations with unavailable stock caused incorrect displays in the “Availability per Event” view.<\/p>\n Location filtering in Availability per Event<\/strong><\/p>\n In the “Availability per Lot and Event” view, changing the location filter now updates the detail lines.<\/p>\n Incoming goods availability description<\/strong><\/p>\n The description for incoming goods in the availability per lot has been adjusted from ‘Inventory + Location’ to ‘Vessel Name + ERD.’<\/p>\n Bin availability permission error<\/strong><\/p>\n Resolved a permission error related to warehouse entries that occurred when changing the availability status on a bin.<\/p>\n Drilldown on availability for items with serial numbers<\/strong><\/p>\n Fixed an issue where drilldown from ‘free on inventory’ fields did not work for items using only serial number tracking.<\/p>\n Drilldown on availability status<\/strong><\/p>\n After the availability status of an order line had been modified, accessing several screens would not function properly.<\/p>\n Reservation and availability field conflicts<\/strong><\/p>\n Separated availability information and reservation issues, which previously shared a field and caused errors when opening tracking lines.<\/p>\n Availability calculation on non-item lines<\/strong><\/p>\n The system no longer attempts to calculate availability for non-item lines (e.g., text lines) on quotes, preventing unnecessary error messages.<\/p>\n Cumulative counting of blanket contracts<\/strong><\/p>\n Blanket contract lines are always shown in the item position, but they no longer count towards the cumulative total if the contract calculation setting is disabled.<\/p>\n Release status and expiration date on lot receipt<\/strong><\/p>\n Resolved an issue where receiving an item for the second time always sets the status to quarantine\/not released and incorrectly filled the expiration date.<\/p>\n Expected cost assignment on sales lines<\/strong><\/p>\n When assigning a lot number to a sales line, the expected costs from the lot number were not being inherited by the line.<\/p>\n Currency information on lot numbers<\/strong><\/p>\n Resolved an issue where currency information on lot numbers could not be modified.<\/p>\n Release status and expiration date on lot receipt<\/strong><\/p>\n Resolved an issue where receiving an item for the second time always set the status to quarantine\/not released and filled the expiration date automatically.<\/p>\n Availability per lot for transit and free stock<\/strong><\/p>\n Fixed a display issue where lot availability was not correctly shown when a single lot number contained both cleared and customs (transit) inventory.<\/p>\n Drilldown for items with lot and serial tracking<\/strong><\/p>\n Corrected the drilldown functionality for items that utilize both lot and serial number tracking.<\/p>\n EDI invoice-to address validation <\/strong><\/p>\n The error triggered when no EDI profile existed for an invoice-to address in a message has been downgraded to a warning.<\/p>\n Invoice-to address based on order customer<\/strong><\/p>\n If an EDI message lacks an invoice-to address and the order customer has no invoice customer, the system now uses the order customer’s address or PO Box.<\/p>\n EDI settings when converting quote to order<\/strong><\/p>\n If a customer is an EDI customer at the time of quote creation but not when converted to an order, all EDI fields are now cleared as may be expected.<\/p>\n Cleanup of EDI envelopes and messages<\/strong><\/p>\n EDI messages with the status “Imported” were not being removed during cleanup processes.<\/p>\n EDI processing with unknown BY<\/strong><\/p>\n EDI messages with an unknown ‘BY’ code are now successfully imported instead of triggering a processing error.<\/p>\n EDI import with names in UNB segment<\/strong><\/p>\n Resolved issues where names included in the UNB segment caused EDI import failures in some cases.<\/p>\n Reading EDI delivery date and time<\/strong><\/p>\n When importing multiple EDI files, the date and time from the DTM+2 segment were not always correctly processed.<\/p>\n Price per consumer unit display<\/strong><\/p>\n Corrected the display of the price per consumer unit when entering the unit price.<\/p>\n Recalculating cost lines<\/strong><\/p>\n When recalculating a single line in the cost calculation, unrelated lines were previously being included.
