Software Updates 02/28/2007 (Download)

Some of the Highlights are:

• Payroll checks/stubs by location - these now print alphabetic by employee name with in location.
• Check Washing by bank code - file of checks written that you can send to your bank electronically to prevent check washing, now asks for bank code so you can include or eliminate some checks written (by Wachovia interface).
• Customer Tax Exempt Expiration Date - Enter tax exemption certificate# and expiration date in the customer master record. During sales invoices, user will be notified indicating the tax exempt expiration date has passed. Print tax exempt # on the invoice.
  

  In Michigan, the cert is valid for three years, so prefer to enforce the dates.
  In Minnesota, do not enforce the dates, but use the tax code if there is a tax id number. MN does not have expiration dates.

• Close Lots commands - to clean up lot tracking through a certain date.
  Step 1: (from a command line) call U8UPDTRAN Created 01FEB07
  This program will read through the item balance file. It will create a matching record (in terms of quantity) in U8intrn for each itmbl record with non-zero balance. After this completes successfully, there should be entries of type code 'BI' (in u8intrn) for all items in u4itmbl that had a non-zero beginning balance. These balances should be zeroed out (in u4imbl).

Step 2: (from a command line) call U8UPDBLANK Created 01FEB07
This program will update the lot# field to the word BLANK in records were the field is blank and where the item is being tracked by lot. Files u8intrn, u8invnt, and u4trnd will be updated only for items being tracked by lot.

Step 3: (from a command line, type:) U8CLOSELOT press F4 Command created 01FEB07
This program will read through the Inventory Summary file (U8intrn). It will close all lot numbers with a quantity of 0 with a date less than or quantity of 0 with a date less than or equal to an input date.
Closes lots ('Y' in close lot field in U8intrn) for Closes lots ('Y' in close lot field in U8intrn) for records with fiscal year and period less than or equal to input from the command. Prompt for Date Range to Close Lots input.

• Lot tracking clean up. Command U8LOTLABLC created to roll up item records, with a negative quantity in files U8invnt, u8intrn, and U4trnd into a single record (per item). These records will have a lot number of the last day of the month previous to what was input from the screen. For example, an entered month and year of 10 2006, will result in a lot# number of '20060930'.
• Invoice e-mail report - After you have sent emailed invoices to your customers, you have to wait until the job is completely done sending before you run this option. It will show you invoices that were sent and if there were any unsent emails.
• Accounts Payable Invoicing - F9 (Pull Inventory) from AP Entry/Edit (in change mode) pulls AIMS interface transactions too. Have a great week!
