Budgets - Adding to an Inactive Procurement List:
When adding Budget lines into a to an inactive Procurement list that is inactive, a warning message is now displayed, and it is up to the user to go ahead or not (depending on their internal processes).
Warning “The selected Procurement List is set as inactive.”
Contracts - Receipt details:
As part of the Project Trust Account functionality that we are currently developing, we have added a new column in Job Receipts to display the GL account for the bank account the AR Invoice was paid into. This will be used in Workbench to verify, if the Contract has a Project Trust Account (PTA), that the funds were deposited into the PTA as expected, or highlight it if they were not.
For this we We have to update the integration with the different financial systems APIs for this. MYOB Account Right is the first one to support these this new field. We will add other systems shortly.

Plant Maintenance Logs:
New Setting to control visible tabs on Plant Maintenance Logs:
Service Logs and Plant Logs shared a common setting ‘Log Maintenance Tabs’ to control visibility of tabs in the Log. This has been split, and the Plant Maintenance Log has its setting, so changes to one won’t affect the other.
New setting name: ‘Plant Maintenance Log Tabs’A new ‘Workflow Status’ column was added to the Logs list.
A few enhancements in Plant Items List:
In the Service section, we splitted the Status field, and added two separate columns to display the Days due of the Log and the Next metering reading due date:
Days Due = Next Service Date - Today
Meter Due = Next Service Reading - Latest Reading
The existing Status description now shows overdue date.

Approval of Revenue Journals & Internal Sales:
The approvals of Revenue Journals are now only done by the Standard method only (where you assign it to a specific user for approval). So regardless Regardless of the approval method on Job Invoices (workflow or Standard), Revenue Jouranls Journals only support Standard . This is because Workflow apporval do not really work with $0 amounts.
Two new control parameters have been added to control the apporvals:Revenue Journal Approval Process - only Standard supported.
Revenue Journal Approval Process - defaults to Workflow methodWho can create and edit Revenue Journals?
We have introduced a new permission ‘Allow Revenue Journals’, added by default to the Finance Role.Users that do not have this permission will not see the New Revenue Jornal button, and will not be able to edit existing ones.
New options on New Job Invoice:
The New Invoice button in Job Sales Invoices now has specific options to create either a New Internal Sales invoice or a New Revenue Journal. The selection of the Job selection within the new document will be filtered by the document type selected. This is makes the creation of a Revenue Journal or Internal Job much easier.
approvals and Internal Sales only supports Workflow approvals.
Why?
Workflow approvals don’t work with $0 value invoices (and Revenue Jouranls are a $0 value invoice).
Makes sense to be able to route the approval of an Internal sales based on complex rules that can be configured in a Workflow.

Import procedure enhancements - wbImportCostSheetScheduleLinesWeb:
Fixed a bug introduced on the previous release (error message: Error converting data type numeric to numeric.).Enhanced Selling calculation on Revenue lines:
On a an At Revenue & Cost lines cost sheet, we have added a field were where you can chose ho wyou wantthe choose how you want the Revenue Selling value to be calculated. So far we had two options, either using Markup % or Sell Rate. We added a third option, ‘Inherit Inherit Sell. This helps to understand the selling calculation at a glance.‘Inherit Sell’ sets the Revenue Sell Rate as the total sell of its cost lines, and auto updates as any cost lines are amended.
Markup %,
Sell Rate
Fixed an error when deleting all cost lines (BOM lines) from a Revenue line with a Markup %, where the changes were not saved and the line was back to the original status.

LogNo handling on Voucher and AP Invoice:
