Just installed OE 8.1C. Company Profile/System Default/Reverse order of order list is checked (as it was in the old OE) except, the new OE is defaulting the blue line to the bottom of the list instead of the top in Enter Orders/Invoices/Credit Notes. Can I fix this?

Converting AR data now.... !!!

IC, OE and AR all installed now. Not sure how AR knew which fields were city and province but it appears to have converted perfectly!!! The speed in all 3 modules is unbelievably better for searching items and customers. Even remotely I can tell the speed is 20 times faster. Very Impressive!!!! I'll have to fine tune things in the coming days and especially looking forward to setting up the Ontario Environmental Fees properly. Great work Softrak!!

I installed OE 8.1C today and ran into a glitch with the "Print Order Action" report. Running the same report as yesterday (which worked fine with OE 8.1B) it generates the error message "Starting value cannot be greater than ending value". Both the beginning and ending values for the item # are the same. Fields other than item # are at their defaults. This also happens if the starting value is lower than the ending value. If the starting value of the item # is higher than the ending value, the report generates but gives no details.

I tried to open the sample data to check it there but it doesn't recognize my user group and will not open. Sample data for CR and IC opens with no problems.

Is anyone else experiencing these problems?

Try turning off "remember report settings" in the company profile and running the report again.

Hi Susan,

The 'reverse grid' settings appears to be working for me with OE81C - the newest orders or invoices are at the top of the grid. Perhaps try editing the Company Profile to remove the option, then add it back in.

Glad to hear that you are happy with the upgrade so far.

Hi Rick,

I cannot duplicate a problem with the Order Action report in OE81C and sample data. Can you?

What are the item codes that you are using in your range? Do they have leading spaces or contain special non-alphanumeric characters? Do your item codes have one segment or multiple segments?

There was an update to the Order Action report to allow selection of the 'expected ship date' that is stored on the order detail (as opposed to the date on the order header).

"Reverse Grid" is working fine.. and yes, the newest Orders, Invoices and Credits are at the top of the list and the oldest Orders, Invoices and Credits are at the bottom of the list. It's just that the particular Order that is "selected by default" when you open OE/Enter Orders/Invoices/Credits is the one at the BOTTOM of the list. Therefore the first thing you have to do each time you open OE/Enter Orders/Invoices/Credits is scroll all the way through thousands of Orders to the opposite end of the list so you can see the current orders. This is silly. Why would anyone want to default to viewing their Orders from last year? We want to see TODAYS Orders/Invoices/Credits when we open OE/Enter Orders/Invoices/Credits.

If you uncheck Company Profile/System Default/Reverse order of order list, you'll get the oldest Orders, Invoices and Credits at the top of the list, however "selected by default" is still the oldest Order when you open OE/Enter Orders/Invoices/Credits, this time at the top of the list.

So, whichever way you list the Orders (oldest to newest or newest to oldest) you are stuck with looking at the oldest Orders on your system, before they are moved to history, by default. I preferred the old OE in this respect because it defaulted to the top of the list when using the reverse grid, and therefore brought you immediately to today's orders.

Overall this is a small inconvenience in comparison to the many improvements, but just a little annoying..

Hi Susan,

OrderEntry 81B always highlighted the first order at the top of the grid regardless of the sort order.

OrderEntry 81C always highlights the oldest order. This should be a feature for the person who is invoicing existing orders.

Why are the orders from last year still in the current file? Are they incomplete?

Instead of scrolling through thousands of Orders, use the Home/End keys to quickly move to the other end of the grid.

Hello Rick,

I have been able to duplicate the error message that you are receiving with the OrderAction report and it has been forwarded to R&D.

The issue is related to Single segment items.
