Requires database changes. You will be forced to log all terminals out during upgrade

  • Do not allow creation of  dealer estimate
  • Supplier specific instructions on order sheet.  Instructions are set via utilities -> edit franchise/edit supplier
  • Secure minimum margin on parts.
    • If margin on any single part, after factoring discounting is below a preset %, an authorising clerk key is required.
    • Only applies on spares sales.
    • Does not apply to freeform items
    • Test will apply for parts on order.
    • Configure on edit staff. New check box.
  • Print customer address labels via miner
  • Phonebook - allow search by phone number
  • Phonebook - visual fixes and tweaks
  • Staff - allow zero labour rate
  • Customer search by phone, allow search to match with or without state prefix for customers in same state as dealership. For example, in Victoria, a phone number '03 9123 4567' will be indexed as both '0391234567' and '91234567'.  Previously, c9 would only index the shortened version
  • Orders
    • Print/Export order requires a clerk key on initial execution. It also records date print/export occurred
    • View order : display information captured above
    • Receive order : get clerk key, print clerk on receive sheet. Display clerk in browse received orders
  • UI behaviours lost in conversion from c8 to c9
    • Old c8 would allow an empty list of have keyboard focus.  C9 considers such controls unfocusable.  Tweaked to recapture old c8 behaviour.
    • Tab traversal via Ctrl+Tab and Ctrl+Shift+Tab now working, just like old c8.
  • Print customer phone on spares invoice
  • Spell checker, take whether word is fully upper cased, or first letter capitalised when making spelling suggestions
  • Bug fixes
    • Promise report contained a subtle bug: running it would in some circumstances prime the instance of c9 for later failure, i.e. selling parts to a job.  Now fixed.
    • Changes made to miner a couple of months ago broke remote access. You could not view miner query results via remote access. Now fixed.
    • Closed floorplan report : was incorrectly including partially curtailed units.  Fixed.
    • Unit deal.  If you manipulate deposit and then invoice parts on a deal in the same 'modify deal' session. The details of the deposit changes will be forgotten; as though you never keyed them in.  Now fixed.
    • Spares: Freeform items on order need to have unique identifiers so that printing and receiving can discriminate separate freeform items as indeed being separate.  There is a situation where this fails and freeform items are combined on printing and receiving order: when merging onto an existing invoice.  Now fixed.
    • Spares: when offering to merge order onto existing invoice, make sure invoice is locked first, so that another terminal is not simultaneously invoicing received parts for same invoice.
    • Workshop: sell spares via workshop. Was not asking for a clerk key. Now fixed.
