General Ledger-> Master Files-> GL Accounts-> GL Account Maintenance: Period balance forward and net change values used by the Steel Plus Financial Reporting system now support amounts up to $9,999,999,999.99. Previously, the largest amount supported was $99,999,999.99.

 

General Ledger-> Reports/Inquiries -> GL Reports/Inquiries: A new program labeled “Landscape Financial Statements” is now available. This program supports amounts that exceed $99,999,999.99. The program previously labeled “Financial Statements” is now labeled “Portrait Financial Statements”. This program will truncate amounts larger than $99,999,999.99. If your financial statements have to support amounts that exceed $99,999,999.99, 1) remove the Portrait Financial Statements option from the menu system of all users and user groups, and 2) modify your financial statement formats to account for the fact that landscape documents support fewer lines per page. If your financial statements do not have to support amounts larger than $99,999,999.99, remove the Landscape Financial Statements option from the menu system of all users and user groups.  

 

 

 

Miscellaneous Functions-> Master Files-> Warehouses-> Warehouse Maintenance: As shown below, a prompt labeled “Reserved Location” has been added. The value entered in this field cannot be an existing location. This location is used exclusively by a new warehouse-floor application which prompts for a warehouse location and then allows the user to scan all of the tags that are present in the specified location. The location of tags that were not scanned but, according to Steel Plus, should have been present in the specified location are set to the reserved location. A new Steel Plus report will list all tags that are in the reserved location. This report is designed to be used by warehouse employees to search for tags that were, most likely, physically relocated but not relocated in Steel Plus.

In a previous release, we introduced the ability to support branch ownership of customers via Feature #1872.

 

 

With this feature enabled, a prompt will appear on the Customer Maintenance screen allowing you to optionally specify which branch will own the customer.

 

 

 As of this release, when entering a new transaction in Enter Orders/Quotes, if the customer specified is owned by a branch, the new transaction must be associated with that branch as well.

 


The Customer Lookup screen now includes a new masking option that will allow you to specify any portion of the customer name to be included in the lookup results. For instance, you can enter “STEEL” and have all customers that have “STEEL” occur anywhere in their name be included in the lookup.
