Issues Resolved
Summary of the issues resolved for the 19.1 release:
Fix problem when app would crash while reporting a bin problem and the server is not responding. It now says try again.
Changed the way some errors are reported. Some are now just warnings that do not appear in Sicon error logs. For example, ‘The barcode * was not recognised as a Stock Item’
Fix to comment lines on purchase orders (was hidden)
Fix problem where for ad hoc labels, it wasn’t picking up the printer set against the user
Fix for when picking Tilted orders, it was displaying an object reference error when opening the order.
Fix to the put back feature in SOP where the SOP was not updating after put back performed.
Fix to showing picked quantity and allocated quantity and free stock quantity when displaying batch items during put away, and picking and write off and issuing and stock transfer. Sometimes it was showing the wrong labels, although the information was correct.
Fixed problem with Put back feature on sales order not displaying only items for the current sales order. Was displaying for all items in the Picked:SOP bin
Fixed problem with Kit status not been set after build.
Fixed problem with despatch sicon stock transfer – the app was crashing when opening the transfer to despatch
When an error occurs when issuing a works order component, the app was crashing. The error is now displayed.
Fixed overlap on putaway screen if there is lots of decimal places in the number
Aligned the options for message that pops up when the bin needs to be scanned.
Prevented app from crashing if a messaged is displayed when booking in works order.
Reduced the label text for Allocated quantity when picking or despatching traceable items as it wouldn’t fix on some devices with smaller screens.
If the was inspection bin is scanned on the stock enquiry screen, then it was not showing what items are in the inspection bin. The stock enquiry was also leaving items off that had passed inspection.
Fixed problem where user was unable to see stock in the stock transfer screen, when the stock requires inspection flag is set on the stock item.
Fix for encourage scan option setting where if the item has been scanned, then the user can enter the quantity without having to go through the questions again. This was fixed previously for enforced scanning, and is now fixed for encouraged scanning.
Change to when scanning complex barcodes, the leading 0’s of the code are trimmed
Fix problem where enforced scanning for bins are on, but on a sales order, if a bin has been scanned thus applying a bin filter because there are multiple items in the same bin, it wasn’t allowing the user to select an item (it was still saying please scan a bin)
Scanning enforcement or encouragement is now ignored on the stock enquiry screen. This allows the user to type in the stock item and then reprint a label.
Resolved an issue where part-issued WO items would not appear for picking
Fix for when scanning a complex barcode for a non traceable item and the barcode has a quantity, the quantity in the app wouldn’t increase when the barcode was scanned multiple times.
Fixed problem with put back function putting back stock from another sales order, and not the sales order that was picked.
Fixed problem with using the move to function on a sales order and it was saying that there was insufficient stock. This was a rounding issue when UOM was set.
Now show the expected quantity if the user taps the quantity and the enter quantity popup appears.
Fixed problem with picking SOP item, and items have been filtered by bin, and then when an item was scanned, it was prepopulating with 1. This is ok if the quantity expected is a whole number, but for decimal, it now pops up asking for the quantity.
Fix for PO receiving items direct to bin when the item code has a #. Was displaying a null error.
Fix for standard transfers to transfer allocated items
Fixed problem where if a item is in a transfer, but is allocated to a SOP, then the item was been displayed as picked on the SOP. It now doesn’t
On pick screen, the description wasn’t wrapping if it was a long description
Fixed problem with issuing a traceable item using a complex barcode and the app would crash when the barcode is scanned. The item would also have no attributes.
Fixed an out of index error that could crash app when selecting Cancel or Submit on a full screen dialog (like when entering the GRN for a PO receive). This was mostly happening when the user tapped on the button more than once.
Fixed problem with the question of number of boxes on SO despatch appearing more than once. The problem was actually that the despatch could be processed more than once if the user selected the action button more than once. This could have also happened on the PO receive side, so this is fixed as well.
Fixed problem where the user could not select a sales order that they just depatched or picked. Selecting the sales order in the list would do nothing.
Fixed problem where if a complex barcode was scanned during pick, and then the user selected the traceable item, on the next screen with the list of traceable items, the item quantity was not pre populated.
Fixed problem with Generating Serial numbers between two serial numbers routine to allow a format of a serial number with a – in it.

Wave picking can now complete the wave pick, prevent adding the same sales order multiple times and prevents despatching sales orders from the wave pick.

Made add stock screen layout better as the Confirm button was going off the screen for the smaller zebra devices
Implemented setting to allow scanning unallocated orders – they will be allocated automatically
Fixed problem with user filter on stock transfer (it was case sensitive and sometimes this wouldn’t match what was setup against the user in Sage barcoding settings.
Hid the pick / pack filter for wave picking
Increased the tap area for the filter on the putaway screen.
Fix to print labels option was available during packing stage when it shouldn’t have been. This also fixed the ‘No sequence’ error when selecting the print option.

Improved layout on pick screen if catch weight is enabled – the line description is bigger
