Release 5.08
1) The K3S_1010 Orders – Supplier Summary screen can be set to display all suggested orders across all locations and all buyers sequenced alphabetically by supplier name. This might be a setting that a Purchasing Manager would prefer to use.
2) The K3S_8000 All Locations for a Product screen now includes an optional feature to start the cursor at the Product entry field. This saves the user time when entering the program and wanting to type in a different Product ID to search on.
3) The K3S_8011 Transfer Request screen now provides the capability to default a product cost that comes outside of the K3S database. This provides flexibility for customers who have their own internal costs to use for transferring between locations.
4) The K3S_8011 Transfer Request screen now contains logic to default the Transfer Quantity to not be larger than the From Location On Hand value. The inventory requirement at the To Location (SOQ) might be larger than the available inventory in the From Location. The user can see all three values: From Location On Hand, To Location requirement (SOQ), and Transfer Quantity.
5) New products added to the K3S database can be populated with a default new product average. This capability might be helpful in the Store Level environment to have new products replenished immediately after being added.
6) Non-Stock products can be automatically added to the K3S database during the night job, allowing them to appear in the Regular Suggested Orders for Suppliers.
7) Non-Stock products that are added automatically to the K3S database during the night job will appear in the K3S_3070 Product Interface Log screen with a new type ‘h’ Non-Stock Products.
8) The K3S_2000 Supplier Maintenance screen now provides the capability to drill down to like suppliers that have the same Supplier-sub code. This can be very helpful for customers who use the Supplier-sub code in a consistent way, such as Product Class.
9) The K3S_1010 Orders – Supplier Summary screen now provides the capability to drill down to like suppliers that have the same Supplier-sub code. This can be very helpful for customers who use the Supplier-sub code in a consistent way, such as Product Class.
10) The K3S_1015 Approved Orders Summary screen now provides the capability to drill down to like suppliers that have the same Supplier-sub code. This can be very helpful for customers who use the Supplier-sub code in a consistent way, such as Product Class.
11) This enhancement is for customers who use the “Count Days Out of Stock” logic to help develop product demand at Period End. Products will not begin their “Count Days Out” logic until they have been received into inventory for the first time. This would affect new products.
12) The K3S_1050 Orders – Supplier Approval screen provides the “F7=Retrieve comment” capability. These stored comments can now be specific by Location for customers that run a multi-location environment.
13) The K3S_2040 Supplier Order Cycle Analysis screen now displays the “Last Update” field, which shows the user when they last updated the Order Cycle.
14) The K3S_1010 Orders – Supplier Summary screen now contains a new filter field labeled “Order Cycle”. Using this filter a buyer can easily see suppliers that fit into one of the following groups:
- Order cycle not set up
- Order cycle established
- Order cycle over 6 months old
- Order cycle over 12 months old
- Order cycle over 24 months old
15) The K3S_2020 Supplier Variable Order Cycle screen now allows a buyer to enter an Order Cycle value of 0 days, which helps visually identify which days are “non order days”
16) The K3S_3080 Selected Records Review Batches now contains 3 new types of batches that can be generated to help identify slow moving products. They are:
- ND1 – No demand for 1 year
- ND2 – No demand for 2 years
- ND3 – No demand for 3 years
17) The K3S_3025 Results from Weekly Distribution screen now contains all information to audit the results in one WINDOW, versus the two WINDOWs used before. This makes understanding the answer easier for the user, since the F20=Toggle is no longer required to see all information.
18) The K3S_3016 Product Link Request screen can now be set up for a customer to use a different default record type when F6=Add is used. The original default was to add new ‘D’ Daily values records. The new optional default record type is to add new ‘C’ Copy history records.
