Support / Subscription policy changes with c9 from Feb 1 2023.

Starting Feb, your c9 must be kept up to date.  Once a new version of c9 becomes available you'll have two weeks upgrade your c9.

Upgrading c9 is easy, click on Main in top left then click on Check for updates. Only needs to be done on one computer.

If you allow your c9 to get older than 2 weeks then txn processing in c9 will progressively slow down with alerts until you install the latest version.

Tweaks and fixes

• More tweaks to Stihl warranty export. Modify date format to conform to strict iso-8601 requirements of zero padding date.
• Honda Magician check is a bit fragile for some users. Changes made which I hope will make it more robust (specifically flush all cookies on re-login attempts. I suspect stale cookies are causing problems sometimes)
• Payroll monies report. Rerunning the report would not reset allowances tally so allowances total line would keep increasing. Now fixed
• Some unit sale bugs and tweaks
  • System would let you add liability encumbrance to a resale unit. Removed as doesn't make sense here
  • Bugfix with a tradein where 'reconciliation warning' pops and user selects cancel.  If you retry save the resulting journal postings are a mess, doubling up on recipient invoice. Now fixed
  • Edit unit deal, resale unit, if resale contains onroad costs you could not do any further modification to these costs. Now fixed
• C9 Version policy changes. Changes coming to force dealers to keep their c9 relatively up2date. Once a new version comes up you'll have 2 weeks to install it before subscription becomes adversely affected
  • C9 now logs when you were alerted to a version change to help implement new policies coming
  • C9 license / subscription warnings will advise subscription is being affected by running an old version of c9
• Unit deals : add sell unit to order. Default unit type to 'New'
• Nidasu Integration: added a couple of slots in edit franchise to drop an ID + password for nisdasu data transport
• Piaggio group EPC importer : now working again
