Accounting
- Based on your company settings, you can
now enter invoices and have the distribution for those
invoices cross multiple general ledger files. This is
accomplished by making an inter-company entry for the
distribution that includes accounts for libraries other than
the current library. For example, if ALIB and BLIB have
separate general ledger files but share accounts payable
files, you can take an invoice and enter it in ALIB and allow
the distribution to be split into accounts for both libraries.
- Based on company settings, you can now
have a history of accounts receivable payments. This history
will be retained for a user-defined number of days and allows
the user to see the distribution of a check, as well as a
display by other parameters such as customer number/invoice
number, etc.
- Based on company options, you can now
receive payments from a customer and apply that payment to
invoices for multiple libraries. The System will generate
inter-company accounting for the deposit. For example, if ALIB
and BLIB share customer master files and open invoices but
have separate general ledger files, one library can now
receive payments for both locations and the System will
generate inter-company accounting for the invoices not within
the current library.
- Based on a message member setting, when
the Detailed Activity Aging report is run by branch,
invoices shown on the report can optionally be based on the
prefix of the invoice rather than the branch number in the
customer file.

Factory communications
- The new Caterpillar PS/IP e-Hub module
has been developed for Caterpillar TEPS Dealers to retrieve
Caterpillar pricing and to send electronic purchase orders to
Caterpillar.
- The International part number length has
been changed from 11 to 25 characters to comply with
specifications from International.
- The new MackCharge interface will allow
fleet operators to charge the cost of parts and service at
Mack dealerships to their MackCharge cards. A new program then
collects and formats the MackCharge order information into the
proper Mack formats. An End-of-Day procedure sends the
information to a PC, and then the information can be sent to
Mack via Mack software.
- The Volvo Warranty Download module is now
available. Volvo Warranty Download allows you to transmit
warranty claim information to your Volvo PC so that it can
then be sent to Volvo Corporate via the Internet.

- New programs have been created that will
allow the client to receive purchase orders via electronic
transmission. INFO 5 will convert the electronic data to a
counter ticket. The countermen can access this counter ticket
from Menu ACUST. The transmission will create the
picking ticket for the order if the Message Member is set to
create picking tickets at the time the order is received.
- A new message member option has been
added that determines if the user must enter a SHIP TO name
and address on counter tickets created from MENU ACUST,
Option 1 or Option 2, if the customer number in the customer
master is flagged as cash only and the ZIP code field contains
only zeros.
- Clients will now be able to create the Customer
Stock Class Sales by Salesman Report (Menu ASAP,
Option 10) for an individual salesman. A new field has been
added to the screen that will let the user select a salesman
to list on the report. The report can still be run for all
salesmen as in the past.
- Menu ACUST, Option 22 Update
PO# on Billed Order has been added to allow users to add
or change the purchase order number on a closed counter
ticket. This option is controlled by a message member setting.
- A message member option has been created
that restricts the update of stock class records to only the
current branch in Menu AMNTP, Option 4 Maintain
Stock Class Records (Screen ODA140 3), as well as Menu
APRICE, Option 1 Maintain Stock Class Records. If
access is restricted based on the message member, a command
key is available to enable the user to enter a password and
allow full access to all stock classes.
- Based on a message member setting, you
can now select by invoice the printer to be used to print a
counter ticket. When the printer screen is displayed, you will
only be able to change the printer. The invoice will print on
either the changed printer or the default printer; in other
words, you will not be able to cancel the print job from this
screen.

- Enhancements have been made to the
CrossMaster-HD module. Additional manufacturers have been
added to the CD, and you will now be allowed to select all
parts from the cross-reference file or filter on parts from
selected vendors. Based on message member settings, you can
select how the punctuation and cross-reference searches
function.

KOLD (Karmak OnLine
Documents)
- The search functions in the KOLD module
have been modified to allow you to search for reports created
in a specific year or year and month. The Next and Prev
buttons have also been modified so that within the year and/or
month search, you can select Next and go to the next
month or year as selected, and select Prev to go back
one month or year based on the search criteria. The enhanced
search functions will work for all reports, or it will search
based on a selected department, functional area, or report
title.
