Enhancements
Improved Bundle Setup Options in Production Order Entry
The Bundle Setup option in Production Order Entry has been redesigned to be more intuitive. To view the options, click the "Setup" button under the "Bundles / Cuts" column.
For linear and 2 dimensional items, you are able to select the pcs per bundle, the weight per bundle, or the number of bundles you'd like to produce. The tags will be entered in the BTS grid directly under the line you used to set up bundles.
When creating bundles for slitting orders, you can also split tags. There are two methods to determine the tag weights depending on how the sales order was entered. If the order was entered by weight with more than one piece, or if you entered the number of cuts in the BTS grid, using the Split Tag weight and Total Cuts options will create one tag per cut.
If you would like to copy an existing tag you can select the Copy Tag Weight option and the number of tags you'd like created (shown in blue).
The setup window has also been updated to show the estimated weight of the cut and a comparison between the master coil width and the total number of inches of finished width for all tags.
Hard Reserved Sales Order Lines Now Selectable in Production Order Entry
Production Order Entry has been updated to allow selecting and adding Sales Order lines that have hard reservations. Lines with hard reservations will display in grid when no master has been selected. In addition, when an order line is selected and added to the BTS grid, the assigned master tag will be automatically loaded as a source.
(Note that this functionality excludes order lines with multiple processes, which still require using the Multi-Stage Processing application to set up.)
More Processes Available to Select when Multing Sales Orders
This release allows users to designate and then select processes beyond Multing Cuts when using the Multing application on Command Center. To designate additional processes for use in Multing, an administrator can go to Maintenance > Processes and check a new "Mult Process" checkbox.
Once checked, users in Command Center are able to select that process from a new Process dropdown in the Multing application.
After multing and sending the details to the quote, the process selected will be added to the order line instead of the default Multing Cuts. Pricing, costing, and the unit of measure will be used from the standard options set for the process.
In addition, the Multing Report (launched using the Print Mult option in the Multing app) will also indicate the process selected.
Other Enhancements
- Application Control: Added an option to the scanner settings in Application Control that determines which Width and Length formatting options will be used by integrated Android Scanners. (Note this feature will be used in a subsequent release to the Android Scanning application to sync formatting with Eniteo).
- Application Control: Added a new "Enable Toll Processing" checkbox to Application Control in the Command Center menu that enables administrators to turn Toll Processing features on and off without contacting Enmark support for assistance.
- Command Center: Updated Command Center to allow Enmark Pay customers to change an order's payment method to Terminal or Sales Order Prepayment if an order line has been picked but not yet shipped. This allows customers to place an order on Terms, then come pay in person prior to it being marked as shipped.
- Command Center: Updated Command Center to allow printing of a related Production Order if one or more of the sales order lines have been added as a BTS line.
- Production Order Entry: Added hotkey support for navigating between Splits in Production Orders: using Shift+PageDown and Shift+PageUp will now cycle through splits down or up, respectively, if they were added to the BTS grid.
- Production Order Entry: Added a new "Match Master" checkbox to the Sales Orders grid in Production Order Entry. When checked, the list of sales order lines in the grid will filter to only those that match the product code of the source tag added as the master.
- Production Order Processing: Updated Production Order Processing to display the Scheduled Date of each production order when selecting an order as well as making the selection window re-sizable and remembering the window position once set.
- Production Order Processing: Added an "Over Producing" warning to Production Order Processing, alerting the user when they're producing more than was in the source tag. This warning previously existed in Production Order Entry and has been extended to Production Order Processing.
- Physical Properties: Added a new Physical Property named "Rockwell (2)" to the Physical Properties sections of inventory screens, including Heat Maintenance, Inventory Adjustments, Receiving, Purchasing, and Report Writer. This second value can be used for tracking additional Rockwell tests taken by customers.
- Physical Properties: Added columns for each chemical and physical property of a tag in Inventory Lookup, the inventory grid of Command Center, and the Find Tag application. Default column settings are off, but can be individually enabled by right clicking in any relevant grid and using the Edit Columns option.
Bug Fixes
Toll Processing and Flat-rolled Inventory
- Billing: Fixed an issue with scrap credit calculations not always loading correctly when using the shipping billing trigger for toll processing orders.
- Command Center: Fixed an exception in Command Center while adding extra lines to a toll processing order when double-clicking in the sales order line list.
- Command Center: Fixed an issue in Command Center where the pricing from the process table was not always loading correctly for toll processing orders lines.
- Command Center: Toll processing orders using gross billing now calculate charges based solely on the weight portion of the master tag linked to each Toll Processed BTS, ensuring accuracy when multiple Toll Sales Order Lines or tags stem from a single master. Additionally, Scrap Credit will no longer appear on invoices unless a matching Scrap Inventory Rate exists for the line.
- Command Center: Fixed an issue in Command Center where gauge values were not loading from customer part numbers created for flat-rolled products.
- Command Center: In Command Center the Search Engine filters for Inventory—Customer Owned Material and Company Material—will now automatically reset to All Inventory when starting a new Standard Order after previously working on a toll processing order.
- Owner Material Receiving: Removed inactive customers from the owner material receiving dropdown.
- Production Order Entry: Fixed the ability to view and cycle through splits in Production Order Entry when viewing completed production orders with multiple splits.
General Fixes
- API: Fixed an issue with adding process lines using the API where lines with a Unit of Measure of inches were not being stored correctly.
- Bank Reconciliation: Updated the Bank Reconciliation application to only show the initial prepayment for clearing when a customer makes a prepayment using Enmark Pay or through the Cash Sales application. Subsequent applications of the prepayment to invoices will no longer show.
- Command Center: Updated Command Center for Enmark Pay customers to no longer be editable while in the Print Preview screen when sending a prepayment using the sales order prepayment option. This ensures that users don't inadvertently edit the order when the sales order prepayment link is being generated and sent.
- Command Center, Production: Updated hard reservations in Command Center, Production Order Entry, Production Order Processing, and Post-Production on toll processing orders to prevent selecting owner material when the material is not owned by the customer on the order. In addition, toll processing orders now filter Find Tag search results to only material owned by the customer.
- Credit Memo: Fixed the ability to print tax credits in the Credit Memo program for Avalara integrated customers when Avalara was set as the tax code on an order.
- Customer Maintenance: Fixed an issue in Customer Maintenance where users were able to change Customer Types even though they did not have permission in Menu Builder to edit that option.
- Forms: Fixed invoices with multiple finished tags for the same size when using the Ship Actual Bill Theoretical option so that all the tags are displayed in a list with the actual weights supporting the line total weight.
- Processing Purchase Orders: Fixed shipping allocations for Processing Purchase Orders (PPOs) so that hard reservations will be visible and loaded immediately when you select the order line.
- Production Order Entry: Updated the Line Notes and Multiple Process buttons in the sales order grid of Production Order Entry for better visibility.
- Reservations: Fixed an issue with Inventory reserves where owner material items were being soft reserved to a standard sales order line in some circumstances.
- Reverse Cash Receipts: Fixed an exception in Reverse Cash Receipts caused when reversing an invoice that is single digit.
