Enhancements & Revisions

Adagio Receivables 6.8B

February 13, 2004

You can now edit the due date of current posted transactions for a customer in the Edit Customer function.
When you enter a payment in a cash batch for a customer who is 'On Hold', a warning can now be displayed indicating the on hold status, and you can take the customer off hold at that time.
Excel Direct feature added to Smart Finder.
Adagio Receivables now allows you to run multiple instances on the same workstation.
When you start Adagio Receivables, it now checks the "Opportunistic Locking" settings to ensure they are correctly set on the workstation.
The Check System utility now contains just a brief summary, and there is a "View Details" button to see the full details of the scan, which previously could only be seen by examining the log file.
The background color of the main window can be set by company in Edit Company Profile. This provides a visual cue to easily distinguish multiple instances for different companies.
Users of Crystal Reports for Adagio can create custom reports and have them appear on the Reports menu in Adagio Receivables.
The list of recently opened databases has been expanded from 10 to 25 entries.
Multiple users can now print the same report at the same time.
The options and ranges chosen on report dialogs when you print a report are saved by company for the next time the report is printed.
File | Options are now saved by workstation rather than globally.
The Smart Finder search criteria is now saved for the next time you use Smart Finder, rather than always defaulting to "contains".
Screens now open at a more logical position on dual monitor systems.
When printing reports to file, you can now choose from four different formats on the print dialog: Excel, HTML, Text, or Word.
When printing reports to file, the filename defaults to the name of the report rather than the generic filename ADAGIO.TXT.
A function has been added to allow you to purge Customer Notes.
The Customer Notes report prints much faster when a range of notes is selected on a database with a very large number of notes.
Adagio Receivables will now automatically convert an ACCPAC Plus Accounts Receivable 7.0A database to a compatible format.
Posting journals can now be printed automatically after posting.
When entering batches, fields from the previous entry (including date) are now remembered to speed up entry and help you keep track of which entry you are on.
The size and position of the Adagio Receivables and Designer main windows is now saved when the appropriate options are selected in the File | Options menu.
The Data Integrity Check rebuild function recovers more data from corrupt IDT type files that have File Integrity errors reported.
Missing help topics and links have been added.
The Company Profile option 'Include batch in G/L description' now works for the system generated payment batch that is posted if a payment is added to an invoice entry.
Some reports would not print if the currency symbol in the Windows Regional Settings was not a dollar sign ($).
You can no longer edit Control Account Sets until all posting journals have been purged.
The batch status report and inquiry did not show the actual total posted for cash batches that were posted with errors.
The sort by number of days and the range of days in the Overdue Receivables, Projected Receivables, and Aged Trial Balance are now working correctly.
The dunning message on statements for Balance Forward customers was not selected correctly when older, fully paid invoices had not yet been cleared.
The GL account was not verified in cash entry when 'Field verification' was on under File | Options.
The maximum interest sequence number has been increased.
The Adjustment Batch Listing incorrectly reported a duplicate adjustment number if an adjustment was applied to an invoice that already had had an adjustment posted against it, even if the adjustment numbers were different (i.e. unique).
In some cases when multiple batches were posted, the postings appeared on the same instead of separate posting journals.
The import and export functions include many enhancements and revisions, including but not limited to the following items.
New import / export templates default to having no fields selected and the terminology for available and selected fields is clearer.
The default import / export customer templates have been changed to be more generic. Previously they simply contained all fields in the file. Adagio Receivables 6.8B converts the default import / export templates to match the new definition.
Import functions write errors to a log file (ARIMPERR.xxx, where xxx is your company data extension).
Default fields in import templates are now validated when entering the template.
If you copy your database to another directory, the path to the import file in the default import template is automatically updated to the new path.
The default file names for import and export templates have changed. Previously there was a potential conflict of names as all the files were named ARIMPORT or AREXPORT.
When importing batches, only the 'String' type worked for date fields. The 'ASCII - YYYYMMDD' and 'Date' types now work.
Import failed in some cases if the last field on a line in the import file was empty quotes.
The import functions now strip leading zeros from customer, job and other key fields in the import file.
In some cases, files containing a comma in a string field could not be imported.
You could only import retainage invoices if the Job Costing interface was turned on and job number was selected for import.
A retainage invoice is created on import for an import batch of type "job cost and or retainage details" if the transaction type is invoice, there is a non-blank original invoice number, and retainage accounting is turned on.
