6.0.130

  • When changing a P/N, program now prompts to change "(from P/N)" link on POs of all status (Pending, Open, Closed [Closed is new]) and changes "P/N" entry for Pending and Open orders, but leaves P/N on closed orders undisturbed.

6.0.119

  • This release adds alternate dropdowns that fix the cell-blanking problem seen on Sources and Items Supplied grids on some installations when manipulating the Vendor, Mfr and Mfr P/N dropdown lists on those grids (and typing in new data there). Activate these from the Grid Settings menu (small gridded button): Use Alternate Dropdowns.

6.0.118

  • Fixes error under certain conditions when using 'Copy Selected to Another List' with ECO edition on a non-ECO enabled database.

6.0.116

  • If previous data file is not available, attempt to install new Job field is now cancelled.

  • Change to program behavior when adding a new Detail item directly to a Parent P/N's Detail list: Parent Status is copied to all Detail items. This is consistent with program behavior when linking existing items as child items of a Parent P/N by adding to the Detail grid, up to release 6.0.115. Editing a Parent P/N has always copied the Status to all Detail items.

6.0.115

  • AF The RFQ Date Reqd entry textbox now can be set for either a Text type field (the default) or a true Date type field, similar to the PO Dely Reqd box. The RFQ report and the Buy page Pending RFQ listing column toggles to pick up selected data type.

  • Changing the PO or RFQ Date Reqd field type setting from Date data type to Text data type now prompts to transfer data to the text field. Previous data transfer when changing type had been text-->date only. Now transfers date-->text if changing back.

  • AF Show Sources subreport (optionally available for Item Master ShowAll, Assy Tree, and Purchase List from Page Setup dialog) now includes RoHS field checkbox.

  • On 'Order This Item' window, textboxes for Cost, Per (unit) and AtLevel are now locked (not accepting keystrokes), consistent with functionality (user entries not accepted here).

  • Field POMAccount in POM table is now populated from the Vendor Account field when creating a new PO from 'Order This Item'.

  • Change to program behavior when adding an existing item to a Parent P/N's Detail list:
    Now does not cause the Status of all sibling items to be set to the parent's Status. This is consistent with creating a new Detail item directly on the parent P/N's Detail list. Editing the Parent P/N's Status does still result in its Status being copied to all of its Detail items.

6.0.114

  • AF Adds new 'Cust. Order #' field to Job page and quotation, invoice and packing list reports.

  • Enables Qty entry on the AddItem dialog when adding line items to the Job | Tasks grid.
