TECHNOLOGY: Facility Security Ranges

Previously, a user could complete the Cost Transfer (CST920) process for any range of facilities regardless of their security settings established in SYS600. This enhancement verifies the user security settings set up in SYS600 before processing cost transfers for a range of facilities in CST920. If the user has authority for a facility range, but there are facilities within that range that are not authorized, the program skips those facilities and completes the cost transfer process.

FINANCE: Expiration Date for Quotes and RMAs

A Cancel-by-Date has been added to the Quote Header and RMA Header panels. This optional field can limit how long a quote or authorization to return items for credit is valid.  

For quotes, this enhancement provides an optional end date for the quote. For RMAs, it provides an optional date by which the customer must return the items to receive the credit listed on the RMA.

The Cancel-By-Date prints on the Order Acknowledgement and RMA Acknowledgement to inform the customer of this important limitation to the quote or return authorization. 

An Order Entry user cannot copy the quote to create a new order if the Cancel By Date has caused the quote to expire.

OPERATIONS: Default Split Salesperson to Customer Orders

Sales commissions are based on combinations of the Primary, Split, and Line-Level salesperson and the commission codes defined for the customer and item. You can now define the Split Salesperson in the same master files as the Primary Salesperson. While the Primary Salesperson is mandatory, the Split Salesperson is optional. It defaults during Order Create using the identical hierarchy as Primary Salesperson. Using Split Salesperson provides more flexibility in the calculation of sales commissions. The ability to define a default Split Salesperson improves the accuracy of sales commission qualification and calculation and reduces maintenance and adjustments necessitated by corrections.

TECHNOLOGY: Archiving Data from tipcs300 and ticst300 Tables

1. Archiving tipcs300

• Using Session tipcs2260m000:
  • When archiving PCS projects, selecting the "Archive Financial data" option ensures that:
    • Records in tipcs300 are archived to the archiving company.
    • Records are deleted from the original company.
  • If records remain in tipcs300:
    • They may belong to projects that have not been archived.
    • The project may have been archived without selecting "Archive Financial data."
  • Verify there are no errors during the archiving process.
• Using Session tipcs3500m001:
  • The session "Delete Financial Transactions by Project" can delete records from tipcs300.
  • Note: This session is not for archiving; it removes records without copying them to the archiving company.

2. Archiving ticst300

• Using Session ticst0250m000:
  • The session "Archive Production Orders" allows:
    • Archiving and deleting records from the original company.
    • Only deleting records from the original company.
  • When executed:
    • Records in ticst300 associated with archived orders are removed.
    • Remaining records belong to unarchived orders.
