Issues Resolved

Works Order Processing

• Fix to highlight any traceable items where the ‘Use by’ or ‘Sell by’ date is before today’s date when amending a works order lines allocation.
• Fixed problem with error ‘Stock item with id 0 cannot be found’ when selecting the Issue button on the Process Works Order screen.
• Fixed issue where a stock analysis code is mandatory, but analysis code on the stock item is not set, and we using auto numbering, then an error would occur: ‘Analysis Code is mandatory and does not have the value specified in its list of allowable values.’
• Fixed works order settings for spare text fields where a ‘:’ was left in the label, and thus would display the spare text field on the additional info tab on the works order incorrectly.

Kitting

• Fix when a kit already exist for a sales order line to update the kit quantity and it’s component when the setting ‘Prompt for kit creation for sales order line shortage’ is not enabled.

Change in Functionality

Works Order Processing

• Added new setting to always use the works order numbering when creating works orders. Therefore, if the user creates a works order from a sales order, it will use the works order numbering format, not the sales order number.
  • Works Orders generated from a Sales Orders (via any method, workflow options, Generate WO from SO etc) will always be given the Sales Order number by default as the Works Order number also.  It was only possible to override this if creating a Works Order through MRP and the setting to “Always use standard works order numbering” was enabled.
    By default, this setting will always be disabled to work like this still.
  • With the setting enabled, when Works Orders from Sales Orders are created, it will use the numbering sequence as defined in the Numbering & Document tab of the Works Order settings.
  • This setting is found in Sicon Works Order Processing Utilities – Quotations & Sales Orders tab.  If enabled in WOP, it will automatically be enabled in MRP, and vice versa.
