Date: August 30, 2005 These are the release notes for Response v9 (build 4018) IMPORTANT NOTE! Only Response 9.x users may install this update. --------------------------- --- Enhancements [4018] --- --------------------------- Custom Constraints enabled in Picking Tickets view. Counter Sales now supports Kits (components will expand). A new security group called "CCVIEW" can view full credit card information when encryption is enabled (as can MANAGER and SUPERVISOR). Reverse Phone Lookup web service added to New Customer dialog in Counter Sales. Added option in Bin/Item Labels to skip discontinued items. Added "staging area" flag on bin types: [ ] This location is a 'staging area' which will be removed from an item's bin references when the on hand drops to zero. Our Orbital Gateway interface was officially certified by Paymentech Vendor Price Changes - grid of Vendor Item ID, Item ID, Description, price codes, and std cost for easy worksheet entry. Pick from Single Bin option for Inventory items: Will pick all suggested quantities for an item from a single bin or nothing at all. Email address is indexed and searchable in the Customer/Prospect file, and is available in the popup lookup lists for each. Coupon Code added to Order Entry and Import Orders (on Totals Tab). Flag Option to enable it. Variable Kits with premiums/discounts work properly now. Optional Drop-Ship logic enabled. "Our Rates" in Order Entry will show ship charge for all enabled shipping methods in Response. SPE Hook added to "Print Purchase Orders" User Menu added to show items added to User/Group Task Launcher. WHS and Allocated Qty added to Shipto/Order Lineitems View. Can link to external websites/files in Inventory Text Prompts. ------------------------ --- Bug Fixes [4018] --- ------------------------ In the "Apply Payments" screen of Account Receivable, the Finance Charge amount showed an incorrect date. Clone "Stock Levels & Bin Locations" changed to "Bin Locations", since on hand figures cannot reasonably be cloned. Customer Purged Item History would not always start at the top of the list. Added check at start of day to set all Advertising Media record "contents code" to (NONE) if not set that way. Inventory Pricing Import using Price Utility would not work when importing from file of ITEM_ID, Price1, Price2, etc. Added failsafe routine after printing picking tickets to ensure orders go into the proper W or Q status. If the first item (by alpha) in the inventory database is a kit master, the Receipts/Adjustments screen would always show the message: "You cannot process a Kit master record". Duplicate checking for settlements was not enabled for Transfirst. Imported Orders could get put on hold with "Invalid Zipcode for customer" when the zipcode was fine. The "Finalize" section of SPE scripts might not run resulting in files left open, receipts not printing correctly, etc. On Order Quantities for Inventory were not being updated properly when cancelling a "T" status Purchase Order. Bookmark set/resume functionality for referrals in Merge/Purge duplicates was not working. Referrals were not updated properly for customers when imported. (4 scenarios tested). Clicking "View Order" or "Select" from Customer Orders would occasionally bring up the incorrect order. "Invalid Symbol In Expression 'Y'" could occur when entering Telemarketing Setup. Enter Credits/Debits screen could load with a transaction ID already on the screen. Deleting "T" status orders at start of day would not update WHSINV properly. Could get the Order Entry warning that you haven't run Start of Day even when you have. Clicking "discontinued" on an inventory item could cause the 'closeout' flag to remain 'Y', even though it shows unchecked on the screen. Confirm by Manifest would not confirm backorder shipments correctly. Confirm by manifest would show progress bar above 100%. Returns wasn't calculating discount amount per item properly when discount AMOUNT used without percentage. ------------------------ --- Usability [4018] --- ------------------------ Customer /Prospect Activity now displays more information (reference order numbers, transaction IDs, etc.) Added flag to optionally defeat placing imported orders on hold if they fail CASS Address check (the default behavior). Will stop attempting to CASS imported orders if CASS Server fails to return a valid response more than 2 times. Will update shipto address with changes to customer address if the Address Line1, city, or zipcode are blank. Added Ctrl+R hint for reverse phone lookup. Added matchcode check when exiting phone number field (after reverse phone lookup to find duplicate customers). Removed autoCASS after reverse phone lookup since the web service already returns a standardized zip+4 address when available. Added flag option to use the "old" method of keyword searching, if desired. Shift+Tab in counter sales ITEM field will take you to Qty field, as expected. Payments and change due in counter sales can now be accurately displayed in receipts. Adding new views to security setup simplified (new secupdatev9.fil won't remove security settings on existing views). Sample mail merge documents included with build update for Microsoft Office Word (Print letter option). Encryption check added to system login - makes sure the workstation is capable of performing128-Bit Triple-DES encryption. Added flag option to NOT namecase the Shipto Attn: line. Warning added when attempting to remove ALL orders on hold for a "ship in full" reason. Batch credit card processing uses different filenames for Authorizations and Deposits (used to be the same). Added a parallel processing script function {get_run_background("application.exe")} to auto-load Windows programs during SPE scripts and continue running the script (instead of waiting until the app is complete). Added "Max Detail Lines" to picktick.rpt and changed standard picktick.rpt to work with Crystal 10 Runtime (prior versions print lineitems all the way down the page). Flag Files Changes/Added in 4018: - nobooleankeyword.flg - Do not use the boolean keyword search system. Use the "old" way. - NoAttnLineSmartCase.flg - Do not automatically SmartCase the ShipTo Attention Line. - ShowCouponCode.flg - Show a Coupon Code field in the Totals section of Order Entry. - ptnumlines.fil - Number of detail lines to print on picking tickets.
