ACCESS RIGHTS

Updates to Access Rights profiles are as follows:

• • Specific access right for the ability to delete accounts, contacts and documents that a user has access to based on permissions. The
    two new settings are: “Delete documents a user has access to”, and “Delete accounts a user has access to”.
  • User ability to Lock or Lock and Mark for Export on a sales documents. “Ability to lock or lock and mark for export: Quotes, Sales Orders,
    Invoices and RMAs”
    NOTE: These rights are available by default for Admin SalesRep – Buyer and Admin SalesRep.

ACCOUNTS & CONTACTS

Account Settings

• • Restricting an account contact’s ability to see other contacts address on the storesite. A new setting was added at the account level
    that restricts users ability to see all addresses. A second setting was added to the contact to allow them to access the company addresses
    when the restriction to see others addresses is in place. The customer import file was updated with a field to indicate access type “All”
    or Own” in support of this new setting.
  • Billing and shipping addresses indicator is now included to show when an address is associated with an individual contact. The contact name
    will be seen in brackets at the end of the description (example [contact name]).

• Set tax certificate expirations at the account level and receive a warning when it expires. Once the certificate has expired, the tax being calculated on the quote and order documents will revert to the default tax profile setting for that ship to location.

CATALOGS & PRODUCTS

DOCUMENTS

Sales Documents

• • Create and apply an alphanumeric prefix, or suffix, to Quotes/Orders, Proposals, and Invoices. This is a Company Setting under Documents for each document
    type, and therefore global in application. Details are below.
    • Basic Functionality:
      • Enable the use of a static five-character alphanumeric prefix or suffix on your quote and order documents. The text field
        accepts the use of dots, dashes and underscores. This additional text will be added to documents created after activation is set, and
        will limit the maximum document number length to 13. (Use the Bulk Update feature to update all prior documents with the entry provided.)
      • Radio buttons are used to select either Prefix or Suffix.
      • Alphanumeric text field, five character max, must have at least one non-numeric value to enter text before/after the document number
        (Note: the use of symbols may cause errors to occur with some 3rd party integrations. Please check with that application before applying
        this change.)
      • This field is fixed and not editable on the documents.

• • Batch updates for documents:
    • Added a new tab for documents in the Batch Update section.
    • Supports the all-sales documents we allow for number range changes. Quotes, Sales Orders, Invoices and Proposals.
    • Initial application is to “Apply current document number format”. The format will include the padding, and the prefix/suffix are under company
      settings.
  • Set the maximum document number length with padding by using zeros. This may be used on its own or with a prefix or suffix. Example:
    a document numbered 3518 with a padding length of 10 will look like 0000003518.

• Users with the ability to Lock sales documents from within a document will see a Lock / Unlock button in the footer next to the Send button.
• Proposals can be assigned the Leasing Payment option based on the total of all the attached quotes.
• Ability to assign supported suppliers to manual line items, no longer just to custom suppliers.

Purchase Orders

• Updated custom field mapping options: Electronic signature (E-sign) field for opportunity and sales order, Shipping Amount, Shipping
