This has been done for both the&nbsp;<strong>buying and selling systems<\/strong>. The reason for this is to help users who deal with logistics when planning for trucks or other ways to transport sales\/purchase orders. When a&nbsp;<strong>Purchase\/Sales Order<\/strong>&nbsp;is entered, PICS will calculate the total number of storage units using the quantity ordered, and quantity per storage unit on the lines. As receiving\/shipping records are added, these calculations will use quantity received\/shipped instead of quantity ordered. Also, if you are using either type of storage units in PICS, then they will be used instead of these two fields as receiving\/shipping is done. These new total fields have been added to the Purchase Order, Inbound and Outbound Load, and Sales Order Shipping header tables. They can be seen on the 4 screens which manage these tables. They have also been added to the following reports:\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Purchase Order<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Inbound Load Confirmation<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Outbound Load<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>BOL<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Added the ability to automatically create an&nbsp;<strong>Outbound Load<\/strong>&nbsp;when saving a&nbsp;<strong>sales order<\/strong>. In the customer screen is a new \u201c<strong>Create Load<\/strong>\u201d field. If you set this to Y (default is N) when a new sales order for this customer is saved, PICS will create a new Outbound Load using the default Outbound Load vendor.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Added a&nbsp;<strong>Buyer Assigned Location ID<\/strong>&nbsp;field to the&nbsp;<strong>customer and customer ship to tables and screens<\/strong>. This, along with GLN and DUNS # is used for EDI import programs to be able to identify the customer.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Added a new \u201c<strong>Selling\/Ship Un-Ship Button to fill or blank date and time shipped<\/strong>\u201d system control which will allow you to configure PICS such that when a sales order is shipped, the date and time shipped fields in the sales order header and shipping header tables will be filled with the current date and time. Likewise, when you unship, those 2 fields will be blanked.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Added a new \u201c<strong>Selling\/Disable line editing after Sales Orders are Shipped<\/strong>\u201d system control which will allow you to configure the sales order screen such that when a sales order is shipped, users can no longer add\/edit\/remove lines. If they need to do these activities, they need to un-ship the sales order first.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Added a new feature to&nbsp;<strong>Purchase, Sales and Work Orders<\/strong>&nbsp;as well as&nbsp;<strong>Stock Lots<\/strong>. It is called \u201c<strong>Standing<\/strong>\u201c. You can think of it as a user defined status. In the new Standing setup screen, you can define the different Standing types (we\u2019d suggest things like CANCELLED, ON HOLD, INTERNAL USE, QUARANTINED etc.) as well as what they apply to. Once these are set up you can use them in the above screens.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Enhanced the&nbsp;<strong>notes system<\/strong>&nbsp;such that they now share the security settings with the screen they are called up from. For example, if a user only has rights to view customers, they will also only be able to view the notes for the customer. If they have add\/edit\/del rights for the customer, then they can also add\/edit\/del notes for the customer.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Enhanced the&nbsp;<strong>attachments system<\/strong>&nbsp;such that they now share the security settings with the screen they are called up from. For example, if a user only has rights to view customers, they will also only be able to view the attachments for the customer. If they have add\/edit\/del rights for the customer, then they can also add\/edit\/del attachments for the customer.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Added default&nbsp;<strong>Stock Transfer<\/strong>&nbsp;from and to warehouse system controls. If these are filled, when Stock Transfers are created, these will be used.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Added a new&nbsp;<strong>PICS 3.0 Printing method system control<\/strong>. This is for the changes we are making to modifying and anchoring reports. The code is not finished yet, so please contact us for information for the time being. There are several improvements arising from this, but one of them is major and worth noting \u2026 we are separating the anchoring from the layout. This means that when you modify a form, all users (and EmFx) will have the changes immediately, and nothing needs to be done to re-anchor the reports. Anchoring can be changed independent of modifying reports.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Added a new&nbsp;<strong>system control<\/strong>&nbsp;to allow you to suppress the warning to let you know that when duplicating a Work Order, only the header will be duplicated, and that you need to use the BOM to create lines.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Enhanced the&nbsp;<strong>stock list<\/strong>&nbsp;such that in the stock totals popup, it now shows the total for the items in the entire list. This is very handy when searching with a filter. For example, if you put in *RED GRAPE, you will see all the items where RED GRAPE appears somewhere in the description, c\/w a total for all of them. If you change it further, to include a label, so *RED GRAPE ALLISON for example, only items with those 3 words in the description will appear, and the total will be updated.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The\u00a0<strong>wildcard search<\/strong>\u00a0in the lists has been enhanced to include the leading asterisk in the search box at the top.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Make the switch to PICS! <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Powerful, reliable, and user-friendly.
