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 into a single print job that will run unattended. Report Sets may be printed to printer or PDF files (if Adagio ePrint is installed). Report Sets can be private to the Adagio user or public for use by all users. Report Sets may be launched from a command file or a scheduled Windows task by running ICWin.exe with the parameter /R followed by the Report Set (ex. /RMonthEnd). 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 your daily or month end reports.
You are now prevented from entering post-dated transactions for Receipts, Shipments, Adjustments, Stock Transfers and Assemblies. This prevents accidental entry of dates in future. There should be no circumstance where a post-dated transaction would be valid in Adagio Inventory. If future date is entered an error appears and the date is set to the Session Date. If accessing the data with a Session Date earlier than Today, and the transaction date is later than the Session Date but earlier than Today, then the date is allowed with no error.
If you sign on with a Session Date more than 30 days from Today a warning is displayed to help prevent accidentally entering a date in the future.
New program icon and toolbar buttons provide a cleaner look and differentiate this new version visually.
The Adagio menu now includes the module from which it was selected to allow you to quickly open another instance of the same module.
Most Access Violation (AV) errors are now recorded by module in an exception log text file. The file is located in the program folder for each module. For example: \softrak\icwin\icwin.error.log or \softrak\ledger\ledger.error.log. When any Adagio module with a date in 2012 is installed the exception log is enabled for all other modules. An AV error is a generic error that can occur in Windows applications. This occurs when a program tries to access memory that cannot be addressed, which can happen for many reasons, including software or hardware/network problems. The address, program (EXE or DLL), form, and version information contained in the log will assist Softrak in tracing a problem if the address is located in the Adagio application code.
The System Status function can create a snapshot of detailed information about your Adagio installation and package it in a single zip file that can be sent to Softrak Technical Support or your Adagio dealer to assist them when answering questions or tracing problems. The information includes: Adagio install logs, program INI files and logs, system INI files and logs, directory listings of Adagio folders, versions and dates of all Adagio programs and system files. The zip does not take any of your Adagio database files. To create the snapshot zip file, select System Status in the Help menu, proceed when prompted and click the System Snapshot button at the top left of the Status of System screen. There is an option to create an email and attach the zip. The zip file is in the \softrak\system folder, located on the drive where Adagio is installed. The filename contains a date and time stamp, and is of the form AdagioSnapshotYYYYMMDD_HHMM.zip.
The Adagio Data Source (ADS) writes to log files containing “last access” information about each workstation using Adagio, including the date, time, Adagio User ID, Windows User ID, Windows version and system settings. There is one log file per workstation, with a filename of <computer name>.log, containing one entry per Windows user who used Adagio. The log files are kept in the StationLogs subfolder, on the EZTasks path, typically \softrak\system\stationlogs. The log files are included in the System Status snapshot zip file.
The Help | About screen has been redesigned and includes a link to documentation page for the module that shows New Features, What's New video and manuals.
When Inventory is opened after installing an upgrade, a dialog is displayed with a link to a short video highlighting the new features. The dialog is displayed for each user until they tick 'Don't show this message again'. The video also be viewed anytime by visiting the Softrak website. Note: the dialog also appears when Adagio is installed at a new site.
Problems Fixed
When you deleted an item, its history transactions were not deleted if the item number did not use the maximum number of characters (i.e. had blanks at the end). After this occurred the Data Integrity Check reported errors and rebuilt the data (i.e. removed the orphan history transactions).
Corrected a problem in the Find functions on Alternate Price List Items in Inventory 8.1C (2011.07.13) when single-segment item numbers are used.
Corrected a problem in the finder in Inventory 8.1C (2011.07.13) when a Price List code was entered and you then partially entered an Item Code or selected a different item in the item finder. When the item was selected from the finder, the Price List code field changed and the alternate item was not found, resulting in the error 'Record not found'.
When you copied an inactive Alternate Price List item to a new Price List item you received an error saying the original item was inactive and the new item could not be saved.
The vertical scroll bar was cut off at the right on the item smart finder window on Vista and Windows 7.
If you printed the Physical Inventory Worksheet for items that were not active at a Location and the 'Allow items at all locations' option was not enabled, when you exported the worksheet you received the error "The starting field is greater than the ending field", rather than a message indicating the actual problem. The message has be corrected to "No items allowed at Location, export cannot continue".
If you printed the Physical Inventory Worksheet when one (and only one) item was active at the Location, the worksheet could not be exported to Excel although the report showed all the items.
The 'Suppress 0 qty items' option on the Physical Inventory Worksheet did not work for single-segment items numbers.
If you printed the Assembly Audit List from the menu choice but were prevented from doing so because the Assemble Master Items function was open you could not build master items until you closed and reopened the database.
You can now print the Assembly Audit List when the Assemble Master Items function is open.
After importing Bills of Material the Data Integrity Check reported errors.
After importing Bills of Material where the Unit of Measure for the Build quantity was different than the stocking unit for the Master item, when you edited the BOM an error was displayed indicating the conversion factor for the Unit of Measure had changed and would be reset.
The DataCare integrity check for Inventory 8.1C reported false errors in the Bill of Materials table.
The error message displayed when a user attempts to log in when the Security Group for the user does not exist indicated a different Security Group than the one actually missing for the user.
If the smart finder window for items was sized smaller than the width required to display the extra field when searching by 'In the range of' , the Search, Excel and Print buttons were not shown until you sized the window and reopened it.
Several minor problems and inconsistencies with other modules related to ePrint functionality in Inventory have been corrected in this release. This includes some small new features. If you are using Adagio ePrint, Inventory 8.1D or higher is recommended.
Installs a new version of the Adagio Data Source (ADS) that fixes a problem where you receive an error saying you are out of Lanpak licenses when this is not the case. The Licensed Users field on the Help | About screen in Adagio modules showed a huge and incorrect number of licenses in use in some cases when this happened. This error occurred in some cases when you used the Edit Item or Edit Customer functions in OrderEntry 8.1D (2011.09.29) or 8.1E (2011.12.15), or Invoices 9.0B (2011.11.02).
When running any Adagio module that installs vitalEsafe (or WebSafe as it was previously known as) on a Windows 7 (or Vista) station, in some cases the auto-workstation install ran every time you started the application, even if you had done a workstation install. This happened if the user was not an Administrator on their own machine (the default for a new computer) but rather a Standard user, and User Account Control (UAC) was on, and you had not installed any module with a release date of October 2011 or later and done a workstation install for it on the station. This has been resolved. To resolve this problem for ALL other modules, install any module with a release date of October 2011 or later and do a workstation install for it on the station.
