Licences


The existing method of licencing was causing issues with transaction log growth. The licencing has changed to a per seat licence. Users are now explicitly attached to a licence by the customer - they now choose which Jiwa users are attached to which licences issued within the Licence maintenance form. Named user licences are now deprecated.
The licencing form has changed to provide a simple way of linking users to a licence. Only enabled users use a licence, and an easy method of disabling or enabling users via the licencing form has been provided.
Where there are licences for a previous version (upgraded database), it will attempt to attach licences to the same users as the previous version, ordering by username up until the number of CALs of the licence.
Where there were no previous licences (new database), the active, enabled users are added in username order up until the number of CALs of the licence.
The Company Name has been added to the Licencing form together with a button to open a dialog to set the company name from there. Use the Import Licences icon to import the relevant licences if the company name has been changed.

...

...

Logon

The speed when loggin in has been improved with assembly references by plugins only being resolved if the plugin needs compiling. Previously all plugins were read and their respective references resolved regardless of whether they needed compiling or not and this caused a noticeable delay to the login process.

...

Menus

...

Formatting


The menu arrows have changed from black to white for ease of moving between open forms.

...

...

Inventory Menu Changes


Standard menu changes have been made as follows:

  • Inventory > Utilities renamed Export Inventory to Inventory Export; and

...

...

...

Access the Troubleshooting article for this issue if the script is needed for releases 7.00.175 or prior.
http://docs.jiwa.com.au/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=8716776

...

...

Permissions

The Disallow permission had no affect when merged with another group with an allow permission. A Disallow permission will now always "win" i.e. take precedence when being masked against other permissions.

...

...

Plugin

...

Custom Code

Changes have been made that now allow plugins to provide custom logic to determine the cash book receipt batch to use when processing sales order payments.
The logic was not overridable. A cash book receipt batch was either created or appended to based on static logic. This change now allows users to be able to specify their own logic for determining which cash book batch to append to, or if to create a new cash book batch.
Sample plugin can be downloaded from https://docs.jiwa.com.au/display/J7UG/Override+custom+logic+to+determine+the+cash+book+batch+to+use+when+processing+sales+order+payments

...

Export to ABA File


Two new standard plugins "Westpac Export EFT Batch to ABA File" and "CBA Export EFT Batch to ABA File" have been added to the Plugin Maintenance area. The formats comply with each Banking Corporation format. Refer to the Documents tab of each plugin for specifications.
This plugin adds an option to the ribbon on the Creditor Cheque Payments form to allow export to ABA file. Both plugins are disabled by default.

...

...

Pending Journals

A standard plugin has been provided that when enabled, automatically sets new General Journals as the type Pending. This allows the user to review the journal before changing the Status to 'Normal' and thus posting the journal.

...

Purchase Orders

...

...

GRN Reversals


The status of GRN's where they are a reversal and have been reversed display in the Received On grid in the source purchase order form.

...

...

Messages

...

Purchase Invoices

...

...

Custom Fields, Documents, Notes & To Do's


Additional functionality has been added to the purchase invoice form to include cusotm fields, documents, notes and To Do's.

...

Reports

...


The ability to replace the Jiwa report logo with the client logo has been implemented by adding a standard plugin (disabled by default) called "Report Image". This will update all reports dynamically when printed to have any image on the report with the css classname of "jiwa.logo.png" (This is what all our logos on our reports have their css classname as) replaced with the image attached to the Documents tab of the plugin.
Customers just need to enable this plugin, and on the documents tab of the plugin replace the attached image with the image of their choice. Don't change the document description as the plugin relies on that.

...

Bill of Materials Component WIP


Grouping option by Work Order has been added to the report BMMGT010 - Bill of Materials Component WIP so components allocated to WIP can be viewed by the work order they're attached to

...


The previous field Account is Enabled has been re-named to Active Staff Member, It is used to indicate if the staff member is an active employee.
A new field "Account Enabled" appears below "Active Staff Member" and this maps to a new field - HR_Staff.IsEnabled.
The licencing system now only counts licences for staff members where IsEnabled is set, and users can only log into the system if IsEnabled is set.
