====== Release Notes ====== ===== Version 2.40 PL2 (June 2024) ===== ==== Date Format Customization ==== * Users can now change the date format in the options (either DD.MM.YYYY or MM-DD-YYYY), which will be applied across all modules. ==== Base Document Item Descriptions ==== * For existing BaseDocs (e.g., deliveries with a customer order), the ItemName is now pulled directly from the BaseDoc instead of the OITM table, allowing for customized descriptions in the BaseDoc to be used. ==== Inventory Module Enhancements ==== * The inventory module now supports multiple counters (team counters and individual counters, but not a mix of both). ==== Sales Bill of Materials ==== * Improved handling of sales bill of materials after picking. If a sales BOM exists, the "parent item" will be automatically pulled in the delivery module after picking. ==== New Options ==== * Goods Receipt: Hide Orders for Drop Ship Warehouses * This option hides all orders for drop ship warehouses as well as individual lines in orders for drop ship warehouses. * Picking: Check Available Quantity * Checks if the quantity to be picked is available in the specified warehouse. If not, the line and the entire order are marked with an exclamation mark (!). * Picking: Sort by Base Documents * When a picking list consists of multiple documents, they are displayed separately. * Issue for Production: Check Available Quantity * Similar to the picking process, it checks the available quantity and marks insufficient stock. * Miscellaneous: Allow Negative Storage Bins * Miscellaneous: Automatically Select Current Storage Bin for Item ==== Additional Features and Improvements: ==== - Support for additional barcodes from the OBCD table alongside standard barcodes. - When picking for production, positions will now be highlighted in orange if there is insufficient stock in warehouse x, making it clear which items and documents are not ready for picking. - An exclamation mark will also be displayed if there is insufficient stock in warehouse xx, though it will specifically reference warehouse x. - Manually edited item descriptions will now be displayed during goods receipt, as in version 2.34 PL10, improving control processes for goods receipt staff. ==== Item Images/Attachments ==== * Item images and attachments can now be viewed in the quantity entry screen. * Images can be enlarged by clicking on them. ==== Negative Inventory ==== * It is now possible to allow negative inventory levels. ==== Stock Check Option ==== * Stock checking is now an optional feature that can be selected in the settings. ==== Scanner Support ==== * The issue with Denso Scanner has been resolved. * New logic for Denso Scanners has been implemented. ==== Storage Bin Selection ==== * Improved selection process for storage bins. ===== Version 2.38 (August 2023) ===== ==== Picking ==== * Pick lists based on production orders are now supported. ==== Production ==== * Production orders of type "Special" are now supported. (They are treated the same as standard production orders.) ==== Attachments ==== * You can now add new attachments to old Delivery and Purchase Receipt documents by opening them from the history screen. (Top right "clock" icon in the Purchase Receipt and Sales Delivery modules.) * Signature attachments can now be added to all documents. * You can now add new attachments to items. ==== Translation ==== * Swedish translation has been added. ==== Item Master Data ==== * Advanced active/inactive date ranges in item master data are now also supported. * Caching of item master data is now more granular: COBI.wms will continually retrieve items that were newly added to SAP Business One. **Updates to existing items still require a restart of the app to take effect.** ==== User Interface ==== * New Option: Show the "Free Text" field of document lines in the app. * The due date of individual Purchase Order lines are now shown in the Purchase Receipt module, if they are different from the due date on the document header. ==== Other ==== * COBI.wms can now retrieve the address of the [[Print Service]] from the [[Management Database]] so you don't have to configure it manually on all your Android devices. ===== Version 2.36 PL11 ===== * Ability to add a signature to a delivery document by drawing on the screen. * New Option: Block over-quantity: This will disallow over-quantities in all modules * Document printing via Coresuite is now supported for all document types that can be booked with the app ===== Version 2.36 PL3 ===== * Support for picking items that have "Issue primarily by" set to "Bin Locations" in the Item Master Data. * Display current login information (company and user) at the top of the Main Menu. * Ability to set a Session Timeout in the Options screen. When this is set to a value greater than zero, the app will log out automatically after the specified number of minutes. ===== Version 2.36 PL2 ===== * There is a new option to disable batch/serial numbers in the Picking module. This means the app won't ask the user for batch/serial numbers during picking. The batch/serial numbers will have to be provided later to complete the process, such as when creating a Delivery Note or Inventory Transfer from the Pick List. ===== Version 2.36 (May 2023) ===== === Purchasing === * The Purchase Receipt module now supports Reserve Invoices. * You can now scan the supplier catalog numbers of items as barcodes. * In the Purchase Order module, before selecting a supplier, you can now scan an item barcode, which will select the main supplier of that item as per your SAP Business One item master data. Alternatively, if the scanned barcode was a supplier catalog number, then the corresponding supplier will be selected. === Picking === * The warehouse filtering feature has been expanded to include the Picking module: In the Options screen of the app, you can now enable a new filtering option (checkbox) to make the Picking module only display pick lists for the warehouse chosen in the Options screen. * The freight costs (AKA "additional expenses") of base documents (sales order or reserve invoice) are now always correctly copied to a delivery note that is created via the Picking module. Previously, the freight costs would in some cases get lost when using the Picking module to create a delivery note. * There is a new checkbox in the Options screen under the Picking section called "Display line details by default" which does exactly what it says: when you enter a pick list, the details of the lines (such as customer and due date), which can normally be displayed by long-clicking on the line, will already be shown for all lines. === Production === * The Issue for Production and Receipt from Production modules now display the completed and total quantity of the production order, and use color-coding to indicate the status. (White = no completion, Yellow = partial completion, Green = total completion) * In the Issue for Production and Receipt for Production modules, you can now long-click on a production order to close it, unless the option to disallow the closing of production orders is selected in the Options screen of the app. === Units of Measurement === * Units of measurements are now correctly filtered in purchase and sales modules on a per-item master data basis (i.e., based on the ''ITM4'' table). * Correct handling of changes in Unit of Measurement master data: In SAP Business One, if you use a UoM in a document, then change its value, the document will retain the original value. For example, if you have "1 Pallet = 10 Pieces" and create a Sales Order for 5 Pallets, then change the UoM group to "1 Pallet = 12 Pieces" then the original Sales Order still expects 50 Pieces to be delivered, not 60 Pieces. This used to confuse COBI.wms, which in this example would have asked you for 60 Pieces, possibly leading to an error due to quantity mismatch in batch numbers. Now, COBI.wms looks at the UoM data stored in each document line, not just the current UoM group definition, so everything works as expected. === General === * The live search mechanism has been improved: when you enter multiple words into the search field, each word will be searched individually, and you will get a list of items for which each word matched. For example, while looking for a business partner, you could enter the text "c2 micro" to find a business partner whose code is "C20000" and whose name is "Microchips Ltd." since the word "c2" will match the code and the word "micro" will match the name. * Screens which display a list of open documents (open sales orders, open purchase orders, etc.) will now auto-refresh once every 60 seconds. * Improved handling of date inputs: The app will now display an alert if it can't parse a date value you've provided, such as for the production or expiry date of a batch number, instead of silently ignoring your input. You can now also use dashes or slashes to separate the date values, for example, all of "01.12", "01-12", and "01/12" will be interpreted as December 1st. (American ordering of month/day is not supported.) * In the Options screen, you can choose a different screen resolution and font size to override the Android device's settings. === Security === * In on-premises deployments using the [[COBI.wms:Management Database]], you normally have to store SAP Business One passwords in a column of the Companies and/or Users tables to allow the app to log in via Service Layer. There is now a way to avoid this if desired. Create a COBI.wms User (see Management Database documentation) with an identical username and password to an SAP Business One User. (The passwords of COBI.wms Users aren't stored in the database, only a salted hash to compare during login attempts.) After verifying the COBI.wms User login, the app will try to use the same username and password for Service Layer if it can't find any username/password in the Companies and Users tables of the Management Database. ===== Version 2.34 (January 2023) ===== * Picking: Support pre-allocated Bin Locations regardless of SAP Business One deployment type (previously this was only supported in deployments where a direct database connection can be established) * Sales Delivery: Show the Transport Type of Sales Orders if specified * Sales Delivery: When creating a Packing Slip, allow scanning

(This scenario can arise when the UoM-Group of an item is changed after documents with that item have already been created.) ==== Picking ==== * The Picker field of pick lists is displayed in the overview. * When quantity to pick is 1, no quantity input is necessary after scanning the item. * The sales order on which a pick list line is based can be seen in the details when long-clicking on the line. ==== Production ==== * The Comments field of production orders are shown in the overview. ==== Item list ==== * The "available quantity" is now the same as in SAP Business One (OnHand - Committed + Ordered). ==== Label Printing ==== * Improved user-interface so you can select the label template, item, batch/serial number, and bin location all at once. ==== App Options ==== * You can now assign an Android device to a warehouse to have that warehouse selected automatically when adding document lines. * New option: Use selected warehouse regardless of base document. In other words, ignore the warehouse of a base document (e.g. purchase/sales order), and instead always pre-select the warehouse chosen in the app options. (The warehouse can still always be manually changed.) * New option: Stay in pick list after picking is completed. In other words, don't automatically close the current pick list and return to the overview after the "All lines picked" message box is dismissed. ==== Management Database ==== * In the API URL column of the Companies table, you may now use the special token ''{host}'' to represent the host of the management database itself, so for instance you can use a URL like ''%%http://{host}:50001/b1s/v1%%'' if the Service Layer resides on the same server as the management database.
