Release Notes: Version 11.27

New Features:

  • Schedule Report:
    Report start date

    • Added a new
      start date selection control for the Schedule Report. The date will default to
      the begining of the schedule but can be changed to create reports for different
      periods of time. This is useful when creating work reports for future
      shifts, days, weeks, etc.

Corrected Issues:

  • Show other user
    actions message improved
  • MRP creating PO for
    safety stock when original marked as firm

    • Fixed an issue
      where MRP would create extra purchase orders to meet safety stock, which were
      not needed.
  • Shelf Life: Material
    expires too early

    • The expiration
      date for non-lot controlled on-hand inventory is the clock time plus the item’s
      shelf life.
    • To specify a
      specific expiration date of on-hand material, the material must be imported as lots.
  • Overlap: Job Schedules
    with wrong material source listed.

    • Fixed an issue
      where jobs could schedule even if material was not available when using
      material overlap.
  • DBR: Shipping buffer
    has no effect
  • Purchase Order:
    Receipt Date not set on import

    • Purchase Order
      receipt date will now be set correctly when imported or created manually.
  • MRP: Demand for sub
    jobs not being met

    • Fixed an issue
      that was causing MRP to not create jobs to meet sub job demand.
  • Gantt: Mouse wheel
    doesn’t zoom or scroll

    • Added Gantt mouse
      zoom and scroll functionality. Mouse scroll on the gantt area will zoom in or
      out in time based on the mouse position. Mouse scroll on the time line above
      the gantt area will scroll in time.  Holding the Ctrl key while scrolling
      in the gantt area will also adjust the resource heights during zoom.

Minor Changes:

    Improvements

  • Users: Import
    validation added

    • Added
      validation to prevent multiple users with the same Login from being imported.
  • Recurring Capacity
    Interval: ExternalID is reused when copying

    • Recurring
      capacity intervals that are copied will be created with a new external ID,
      instead of the same ID as the original.
  • Purchase Orders:
    Unload hours are being set to 1, but import is null
  • Internally created or
    MRP generated Purchase Orders are not deleted during import

    • Added a new
      auto-set field on the PurchaseOrders called MaintenanceMethod (similar to field
      on the Job). This field can be set to the following valuesInternal: When PO is
      created internally by MRP or user. These types of POs will not be deleted when
