QuickBooks Improvements

A number of minor improvements have been made to make data exchange between the applications easier. These modifications include:

• Address lines on documents and customers will be automatically truncated to QuickBooks import limits during the export transaction.
• Manual line items use the same settings as the default item type selected in the QuickBooks setup section. If non-inventory is the default item type,
  then all other non-inventory settings will be used when creating manual line items from documents. This includes the setting for using the same
  item on sales and purchases. The COGS accounts will also be the same as other non-inventory items.
• The Ship Via to QuickBooks now includes the carrier and the method truncated down to 15 characters. ChannelOnline has created truncated descriptions
  to assist in naming consistency (this is a QuickBooks limitation).
• Providing Tax Group support and the mapping of taxes to existing accounts without ChannelOnline having to create new tax accounts on the fly.

XML API Transaction Update

Two important changes are being made to the XML export document request in the ChannelOnline 5.7 release:

• All quote and sales order XML requests must specify an event range or “after” and “before” date and time stamp in the Quote or Sales Order request
  after the ChannelOnline 5.7 release. Transactions submitted without this information will not get processed.
• ChannelOnline will start limiting XML document requests to a maximum of 500 documents per request. Use the above “after” and “before” method when requesting
  large or small data sets via XML.

Suppliers

Arbitech Canada

Arbitech, a world-leading independent distributor of data center products and a valuable complement to conventional distribution options,
has expanded their ChannelOnline reseller support to include Canada. Now ChannelOnline’s Canadian resellers can integrate available Arbitech products
into their customer catalogs.

To set up Arbitech Canada, go to the Arbitech Account Setup page in the Supplier section of Admin, enter the appropriate credentials, select Enable Supplier
and click Save.

IMPROVEMENTS & FIXES

Import / Export

• Custom Item Import has a new Auto-Create Manufacturer option that will create manufacturers that don’t already exist in the ChannelOnline database.
• Custom Supplier Item Import has a new option that will bulk update existing SKUs and delete the ones that are not in the current file. This helps to
  get rid of SKUs that are no longer supported from the catalog.
• The Progress Bar display page no longer refreshes every 2 seconds and instead allows the user to control when the page gets refreshed. Manual control
  eliminates the disruption and system resources that the automatic two second refresh cycle was taking away from browser performance.
