Summary of Changes

Features

Accounts Payable

Auto Invoice and AutoInvoice.dll

The Auto Invoice process has been enhanced to allow the user to include Receipt Number information in the file.  This is used in conjunction with the INV_REQ_RECPT flag.  When this flag is enabled and a Receipt Number is included in the Auto Invoice file for an invoice, then the process will create the invoice lines from the lines of the receipt.  Therefore, only the header information of the invoice must be entered (1 line) since the lines are created from the receipt lines.  This field is optional.

Purchase Requisitions and Warehouse

A new validation is being added for the Stock Number selection in the Purchase Requisition Entry and the Material Requisition screens in Purchase Requisitions and Warehouse respectively.  Stock Number accounting defaults are defined by entity/location and group code.  Currently, stock number selection is validated only at the Entity/Location level.  This feature will include the Group Code to complete the validation so that stock numbers are not selected that do not have the appropriate accounting information defined.  This feature is enabled by a new flag in the Purchase Document Parameters Setup screen

This feature will also apply to the Stock Search screen that is displayed when the Spyglass icon is clicked on any of the Stock Number fields throughout the application.
