Summary
We are releasing 7 new features this month and 23 changes to existing features in our systems.
We've also made several performance improvements and fixed bugs not mentioned below.
ERP (Backend)
Blocked / unblocked products in the inventory log of a product
Area: | Requires support to activate? | How to access it? |
Product | No | Enabled for everyone |
When a product is placed in blocked storage in WMS, it receives a clear marking in the WMS product log that it has been moved to blocked storage and when it is taken back, it receives a notice in the log as moved from blocked storage. The same transaction in the product inventory log in the Backend gives only the transaction "Block" for both issue and receipt (and without any indication of the number). This can now be followed in a logical way when looking at the log afterwards. All unblocks are printed as e.g. “-4” & blocks are printed as “4”. You can access this information via "Products → "Selected product" → Left side menu → Warehouse log |
Automation of the review queue when orders exceed the customer's credit limit or if the customer has an overdue invoice
Area: | Requires support to activate? | How to access it? |
Order | Yes | Enabled by Extend Support |
Today, Extend ERP has the option to stop orders for, among other things, these reasons: "Invoice late" and "Credit limit exceeded". After that, it is manual work to pass on these orders. We have built a function that automates this by checking whether these reasons are still "valid" to facilitate the work if you have many orders with invoice as payment method. When you have activated the function, orders are automatically released if:
The function automatically releases the oldest order for the customer to the order queue It is possible to disable the function for a specific customer: The feature can also be turned off/on after Extend Support has enabled it: Under gears → Other settings → Client settings |
Now able to release specific order lines for picking without the order becoming "partial delivery allowed"
Area: | Requires support to activate? | How to access it? |
Order | No | Enabled for everyone |
Today we have functions called
Previously if you used these functions, Extend automatically filled in the checkbox on the order header "allow partial delivery" and released the order for picking. The new feature does not enable "allow partial delivery" and ships what is in stock but holds the rest of the order until it is completed. Orders that have not had "allow partial delivery" ticked have not been invoiced before. This is also fixed. If the order line (or orders) you are trying to release cannot be released (because it is not complete) you will receive a proper warning message |
Improvements & bug fixes
Text boxes on the order view did not follow the contents of the box. For example. order view's "Handling mark"
Visma eEkonomi Norway now works with Extend ERP
In particular, errors could occur on the contribution margin calculation on an order
In particular, errors could occur when uploading the price list
You can now change the price of the "BOM products" constituent product on the order view.
Product search on our VMI app
The Extend API supports exchange rate queries
The Batch/Serial number tab on the order view now has a product name & product number
Updated the Shopify API connection to the latest API version
The supplier agreement page is updated to the latest design
Via the API, you can notify an expected delivery directly to a storage location
Indications on EDQC were improved in 11.1 - a bug was fixed the next day
WMS
Notification of assigned order
Area: | Requires support to activate? | How to access it? |
Order picking | No | Enabled for everyone |
We have added so that the red circle is also visible on the assigned orders button. Based on who is logged in, a red circle shows how many orders are assigned to them. All multiple picks, batch picks and individual orders are counted here. An allocated multiple lot with several orders counts as “1” Unassigned orders are not displayed in the circle |
Several changes to the multiblocks page
Area: | Requires support to activate? | How to access it? |
Order picking | No | Enabled for everyone |
We have made several changes to the multiplocks page to speed up the time for pickers to go from finished picking to transport booked, packed & transport marked.
Quick exit only works if you do not have the function to scan the products an extra time before transport is activated. If something goes wrong with the transport booking, "Quick transport" will not be clickable & you will receive a message. |
Hide inventory locations that are no longer in use
Area: | Requires support to activate? | How to access it? |
Inventory | No | Activated for WMS Admins |
By searching for storage locations, you can delete them if there is no stock balance at that location. Should you happen to delete a storage location, just create a new one from scratch with the same name |
Several lines on receivings have become clearer to look at
Area: | Requires support to activate? | How to access it? |
Receiving | No | Activated for everyone |
Inside delivery, we had an interface that had a lot of "air" in it, which made it difficult for staff to find the right product. We've tidied it up a bit and made it more compact. No information has been removed, just clarified. |
