Enhancements for the Departments, Project and Stock modules

28 December 2011

Here's a brand new Market Package from E-conomic

E-conomic's 51st Market Package includes improvements for our Departments, Project and Stock Management add-on modules. New updates include distribution key barring, and the ability to invoice by sub-project and bulk-delete stock relocation lines.

Improvements to the Departments (Dimensions) module

It is now possible to bar distribution keys. This action is similar to when barring customers, accounts or products. You may simply choose whether you would like the system to show or hide barred distribution keys.

Note: When a distribution key is barred, you cannot book or select them.

Here you can see the 'Distribution key' window with the check box option to bar the distribution key

If an entry has been booked with a particular distribution key, it is no longer possible to edit the details of the distribution key. If a distribution key needs to be changed, you will now have to copy the distribution key and then edit the copy instead.

It is now possible to distribute an unlimited number of departments in a distribution key. Before the update you were only allowed to distribute 10 departments per key.

Bug fix: Previously, if you tried to copy a distribution key, you would mistakenly copy a department instead. Now this has been fixed so that you may properly copy distribution keys.

Improvements for the Project Management module

Now when you transfer hours or costs to an invoice that is linked to a main project, you can have the hours/costs distributed by sub-project.

This automatically adds a heading that shows each relevant sub-project’s number and name before its entries, as well as a sub-total after.

Now if you do a project or activity reallocation and the entry that you are reallocating has a date from within a closed accounting year or a barred period, you will be warned that the booking will instead be made on the first open date.

You were mistakenly allowed to reallocate these entries before, but this has been fixed.

Improvements to the Stock Management module

Now when you edit stock relocations, you can bulk-delete lines. This improvement (brought to you by popular demand) makes it much easier and faster for you to delete multiple lines than if you had to delete each line one by one.

Small/standard bug fix

Previously when you ran the customer/supplier balance list report and included day book entries, sometimes an error message would incorrectly be shown that stated that the report contained too many entries. This has been fixed.

Improvement to the Administrator system

Now when you transfer the invoicing of a company to or from the company itself, the transfer will be logged correctly. Also, now when you transfer invoicing to an administrator, notification e-mails will be sent to both the administrator and the company.

These changes have been made in order to ensure better traceability. This is particularly important in this case since whoever is paying for a company is also allowed to add or remove add-modules and user accounts.
