Release Notes for November 2, 2021

Notes

Support for SYSPRO 6.1 was officially stopped a long time ago. We have continued to attempt to provide updates when required, but enhancements for the SYSPRO 8 user interface have caused some of the screen features to stop working on SYSPRO 6.1. We are sorry, however, nothing can be done if an enhanced program has problems on 6.1 except encourage the upgrading of SYSPRO to version 8.

EDI file formats other then ANSI/EDIFACT (such as TPPC, Gentran, etc.) will not be supported in the future. Anyone using these formats should switch to reading/creating a pure ANSI/EDIFACT format as soon as possible to prevent the possibility of problems in the future. This does not effect the XML imports and template driven exports.

General Updates

2021-08-03 : The WCF service has been upgraded to allow the SYSPRO Load Balancer port to be set.

2021-08-15 : The reporting service has been modified to allow for a blank SavePath option. If SavePath is blank the report control files will not be saved.

2021-08-17 : Identifier update added to acknowledgement query and proper identifer set for documents with BGN segment.

2021-09-08 : New system setup was not displaying/saving notes options properly

2021-09-28 : Clearing of records from DTP table based on the underlying document status added to DTP browse.

2021-11-02 : The system and shipping setups have been enhanced to use a side treeview to select the information to modify. After installing this update perform a "Reset View" the first time you use the setup programs.

EDI Solution Updates

2021-07-28 : Imports would throw a SQL error if lots are being assigned and an error causes a sales order not to be created.

2021-08-02 : Initial beta release of a double pass scripting system for imports. This system will run each segment though the scripting system twice. The first time, no processing is done by the import. During the second pass the normal processing is done. There is a new setting on the scripting tab of document setup to enable the double pass processing (an option to disable scripting has also been added). The latest support library is required to support a new EDI.Pass object in the scripting. EDI.Pass equal to 1 indicates pass one, 2 = pass two, 0 = before first document or double pass is not enabled. The 850 and 830 imports have been enabled at this time and others may be added on request. This should be considered a beta enhancement at this time.

2021-08-03 : Corrected a quirk that if the messages for a PO cross the page header boundary and that PO is not going to be imported due to errors, the test mode message is shown incorrectly in the page header.

2021-09-09 : Added EDI.rValue to scripting to store/return real numbers as a vbscript data type of "Double".

2021-09-13 : Corrected file read error on second etc. file when a wildcard is in the file name and the import files do not have CR/LFs after each segment.

2021-10-06 : Corrected address exports from countries that do not have state/provinces and there is more then one line to the address.  Note: Country information cross-reference must be imported and country must be marked as not having state/provinces.  In addition the "State unknown" message has been removed if a country does not have states.

2021-10-20 : REF segment processing has been enhanced to look at the REF0401/02, REF0403/04 and REF0405/06 pairs and treat them the same as the REF01/REF02 pair with parsing based on the cross-reference.
