IFS IDEAS Release Notes

Summary of Changes

IDEAS 6.24.2.0 has the following Key Maintenance resolutions.

Issues Resolved

Accounts Payable

• Aged Open Payable Report 

  • Corrected a condition where previous years taxes were showing as currently due.

  • Corrected the report where any Advance Applications were duplicated when the Current option was used.

• Cash Requirement Report – When run for a single vendor, the report correctly showed the invoices scheduled for payment.  When run for all vendors, however, the report was showing invoices not associated with the cash requirement file.  This has been resolved. 

• Create Accounts Payable Journal

  • Purchases Journalization – Resolved an issue where the following options were set – Journalize WH with Purchase, Intercompany Processing.  The WH lines in the journal were multiplied by the number of non-stock lines in the journal. 

  • Disbursement Journalization

    • Corrected a situation where the same check number for a different bank code but that the same company and currency combination was being picked up multiple times for Journalization.  Enforced a recognition of the bank code in the payment selection for Journalization.

    • Corrected a situation where one disbursement must be converted to multiple currencies.  The same rate was being used for all currencies.  Now the correct rate per currency is used for each conversion.

  • Advance Application Journalization – Corrected a situation where the Advance Application journal is unbalanced when using the Selection Option – Journalize Items for the Specified Period

  • Manual Checks – Corrected an issue where the Payment Check Amount in the header of the screen did not match the sum of the Currency Payment Amount column in the Invoice grid when Discounts were applied.

  • Void Check – Resolved an issue when voiding a check that paid an invoice in a different currency.  The paid amount was calculated by the rate of the invoice instead of the actual payment rate which caused an imbalance.

Account Receivable Trade

• Auto Invoice – Corrected an issue where a VAT tax amount is stated in the Auto Invoice file, but the amount is re-calculated if the invoice is opened in the ART Invoice Entry screen.  The invoice will now retain the amount loaded by the Auto Invoice process.

Advanced AFE

• AFE Detail Report – Corrected an error when selecting the accounting period in the AFE Detail Report.

Currency Conversion

• AP Gain/Loss Reversal – Resolved an issue where an incorrect journal was created when a check was voided that impacted Realized Gain/Loss.  The wrong journal was used for the posting and the FQA coding was missing on all lines except the first line.

• Gain/Loss Calculation – Corrected an issue where Unrealized Gain/Loss report was created correctly, but the Unrealized journal did not match.

General Ledger

• Journal Posting – Modified the next batch logic to prevent the freezing of the posting process in certain conditions.

iApprove

• Rejection Notifications – Added logic to get user emails from the main IDEAS User table for rejections that should go to users that are not members in iApprove.

Purchase Requisitions

• Purchase Requisition Entry – Resolved an issue where a user changes that stock item on a requisition line item, but the UOM value remained the same as the previous stock item.  The UOM is now successfully updated with the new UOM value.

See the 6.24.2.0 Risk Assessment for the full list of maintenance items included in this release.
