Summary of Changes

The purpose of this document is to provide you with the latest information on recent changes for the release of IFS IDEAS 6.6.0.0 and to notify you of the expected release date.

IFS IDEAS 6.6.0.0 provides a maintenance release that resolved various customer-reported issues. This release demonstrates our continuing effort to improve IDEAS to meet our clients' needs. 

  
IFS IDEAS 6.6.0.0 includes enhancements in the following areas:

General Ledger

New Trial Balance by Vendor Option

Primarily for our Colombian clients, we added an option to the Trial Balance Report in General Ledger that allows subtotaling by vendor.

When you select this option, the report will be grouped and sub-totaled by the vendor ID which is recorded for each transaction. The transactions are summed by the FQA and entered into the report. There are setup considerations to address before using this option. Refer to the General Ledger Help Documentation for details. To view a demonstration of this new feature, refer to the following link:  General Ledger Trial Balance by Vendor

Journal Posting Rollback

The Journal Posting Rollback was expanded in 6.4.0.0 to eliminate duplicate converting and reversing journals when posting was ended abnormally.

The solution did prevent the creation of the duplicate journals, but it also locked the entire application when posting was occurring. Additional logic was added to the opening of the module to prevent the locking. The rollback has been reinstituted to protect the data integrity in the case of abnormal interruptions but also allows the rest of the application to be used while posting is occurring.

Accounts Payable

Argentine Tax Certificates

Argentine Tax Certificates have been modified to print the Tax Authority Name in the header of the report instead of the Tax Authority Code.  Additionally, the comments “Withholding for the month of <current month> presented in the sworn declaration corresponding to the month of <current month> of <fiscal year>”.
