Compatible with Simply Accounting 2012. Note: Budgets are retrieved as they were entered in Simply - the sign is flipped on Revenue accounts.
You can now automatically retrieve a subset of the G/L into a separate data folder. This is useful in cases where you want individual Departments to have access to their financial data without having access to the G/L and without seeing other Departments. A Windows scheduled task could be used to perform the retrieve after hours, so that the Department would have current data as of yesterday's closing. In order to implement this functionality, entries must be made to the AFWININI file in the FX data folder and a /R added to the FX shortcut. See Auto Retrieve in the Help file for more detailed instructions.
Styles and Account Filters are available to display accounts in different colors and Filter accounts that meet specific criteria.
Installs the AdagioPDF printer driver. All reports and printouts from Adagio can be printed to the AdagioPDF printer to create a PDF document in the data folder.
Adagio FX and Financial Reporter fully support the features in Adagio ePrint. When ePrint is installed you can print reports to PDF files in configurable folders determined by the Report Type (General, Transaction or Audit). Financial Statements and Statement Groups print to a separate, configurable folder. Fields can be embedded to establish the file and folder names (User, Session Date, System Date, Time). Click the ePrint button (red "EP" icon) on any report dialog to print the report to PDF. The Paperless Reports option forces all reports to be printed to PDF. Reports can be printed to PDF and attached to an email (MAPI) with a single button click.
Report Favorites allow saving Reports with specific options chosen. Click the Favorite button (a star icon) on any report dialog to create a Favorite. Favorites for a report can be accessed from the report dialog in a drop-down field. Favorites can be private to the Adagio user or public for use by all users. Private Favorites are yellow, Public Favorites are blue. Added Favorite Reports and Print/Delete Favorites functions to the Reports menu. Multiple favorites can be defined for the same report.
Report Sets allow the grouping of Report Favorites and Statement Groups into a single print job that will run unattended. Report Sets may be printed to printer or PDF files. Report Sets may be launched from a command file or a scheduled Windows task by running FX.exe with the parameter /W followed by the Report Set (ex. /WMonthEnd). Note: in all other Adagio modules /R is used but /R is used for Auto-retrieve in FX. A progress dialog lists the reports in the Report Set, the printing status of each, the destination folder, filename and conflict strategy. A log is generated that records the printing status of each report in the set. Use Report Sets to automate the printing of all your month end reports. Report Sets can be private to the Adagio user or public for use by all users. This allows you to give a user access to particular Report Sets containing statement groups, but no access to the Financial Reporter, even in print only mode, which would allow them to select/print any financial statement.
Added User Preferences under the File menu. It allows you to set certain options by user that were previously global, including options previously found under File | Options, Reports | Report Options and the Company Profile (company background color). Includes new options 'On Start-up', 'Alphabetically sorted field list' and 'Exclude Ranges'. The preferences can optionally be set for all users and preferences can be printed. If no individual user preferences have been set up for a user, all preferences originally set for the Adagio System Administrator, user SYS, will be used.
The option 'Auto-advance smart finder' has been added (in the User Preferences function). It controls whether the focus is on the previously found grid or on the search criteria field when the smart finder is opened. Select the option if you want focus to be on the next row in the grid, allowing you to press F6, Enter and march through the found list. Turn it off if you usually want to search by a new criteria each time the smart finder is invoked. In either case the position is advanced in the grid each time the finder is opened.
The option 'Implied decimal' has been added (in the User Preferences function). Turn the option on if you want a decimal automatically entered before the last two digits. For example, typing 400 in an amount field and tabbing to the next field will result in the number being changed to 4.00; typing 400.00 and tabbing to the next field will leave the number as 400.00. With the option off, typing in 400 will result in the number being changed to 400.00 (the behavior in previous versions). Percent fields and exchange rate fields are not affected by this setting. The setting is by Adagio user, for all companies, and when set in any Adagio module, it is set for all Adagio module versions that support it.
Added 'Report Preview Options' in the File | Workstation Options function to allow you to set the default zoom factor and preview window state (full screen or partial screen) for previewing reports to screen. These settings are saved by workstation. Note: this applies to previewing reports only (but not previewing financial statements).
On the Open database dialog you can now use Alt-B to open the browse and Alt-F (for Favorites) to open the previously opened list. In previous versions you had to use the mouse to select the folder buttons.
Alt-X now selects the Excel Direct button on grids where it is available. In previous versions you had to use the mouse to select Excel Direct.
The vitalEsafe upload progress dialog has been improved and the progress bar now accurately shows the percentage. It is no longer necessary to install the vitalEsafe patch.
Added function to 'Print Financial Statements' to the Reports menu in FX to allow you to print financial statement groups without opening Financial Reporter. If 'Specify Fiscal Period' is set on the statement group you will be prompted to select the fiscal period and fiscal year.
Added ExcelDirect Financial Statements to the Reports menu to send statement groups directly to Excel without having to launch the Financial Reporter.
Problems fixed
In the View Transactions/Budgets function in FX 9.0A, if you changed the year in the drop-down from the current to a prior year the View Detail and View GL Entry buttons became disabled until you closed and re-opened the function.
A problem occurred with data retrieved from Adagio G/L when Next Year was created before closing the Current Year. In this case, the QuerySheet function caused cells to display !Error and values returned were incorrect.
In Adagio FX 9.0A (2011.09.23) you received an error message when backups were uploaded to vitalEsafe, although the backup file was correctly uploaded.
When installing Adagio to a computer or server where no Adagio modules had previously been installed, if you installed an Adagio module that does not use the Crystal print engine first (such as Lanpak or GridView), when you installed FX you received the error "Adagio has been established on destination folder: [x:\SOFTRAK]. Yet the install cannot detect the corresponding Reports Tables..." and were unable to proceed. If the first module installed uses the Crystal print engine there was no problem.
The updated version of vitalEsafe no longer triggers a workstation install if it has already been installed by the workstation install for another Adagio module. This is also the case when installing Adagio for use with Remote Desktop Services (Terminal Services in Windows Server 2008 and previous versions).
After installing Adagio FX 9.0A (2011.09.23) at a site running certain other Adagio modules, where no other modules with a release date of October 2011 or later had been installed and run at least once on the station, the auto-workstation install ran every time you started the application in some cases, even if you had done a workstation install. There was not a problem at sites running FX only.
Financial Reporter
You can now force a statement to “Fit to page” either by column or row. File | Page Setup allows you to fit the statement columns or rows to a specific number of pages. The printout will be scaled to fit the space available.
Editing a SmartSheet is now disabled if the sheet is expanded to prevent you making changes that will be discarded when the statement is refreshed.
A new function =ISEXPANDED() (returns TRUE() if the Smartsheet is expanded, otherwise returns FALSE()) has been added so that a formula can test the state of the financial statement.
'Include Y/E Adj' and 'Ignore inactive accts' options have been added in statement groups. This information will be printed if “Statement Group” is selected in File | Send to sheet.
The current row and column is now easier to determine with the column and row number highlighted.
You can now protect the Excel worksheet that is created when you ExcelDirect a financial statement. The Protect option is enabled in the Edit menu.
Remove Row and Remove Column on the Edit menu have been renamed Delete Row, Delete Column for consistency.
Speed keys have been added to most Menu choices.
The Verify SmartSheet command now ignores inactive accounts.
You can now enter hyperlinks such as web addresses into cells in a financial statement and these hyperlinks will be preserved when a statement is sent to Excel.
Problems fixed
You are now prevented from changing the relative position of the Description column when creating a drag & drop Smartsheet as this caused problems in the construction of the cell formulas.
Saving a statement as a template now works correctly if the statement has not yet been given a name. The default directory for the Template is now the System area, not your data directory.
Selecting “Separate Dr/Cr columns” when creating a drag & drop financial statement now correctly ignores the Revenue sign on accounts.
It is now possible (or easier) to cancel a Print or Export of a Statement Group.
User Department Restrictions are now sorted by user code.
The maximum formula length has been increased. This will reduce the possibility of an error being returned from a formula containing the RNGMERGE function.
When using Departmental Restrictions, the value returned by the RNGMERGE function was understated.
When you right-clicked on a range of cells in a financial statement in FX 9.0A, the Copy and other options were missing when the SmartSheet was expanded.
