Over the lifespan of the Inventory Management system, a number of major enhancements and minor fixes have been applied. Following is a brief summary, (listing the most recent items first).

The Item Master record has been revised to include two new fields. These are the Distribution Channel Code, and the ReOrder Manager.

Upgrade Program Must be Executed

Existing users must have an Upgrade program executed to have applicable data records rebuilt accordingly. After installing the update, you must select User Functions from the menu on the Series 5 Main Menu screen, and select the Upgrade I/M function, and specifically choose to upgrade the Inventory Master file.

(Nov-03-2010)

When the Inventory Management system is used in association with the Series 5 Purchase Order Processing system, each Inventory Item may now have a set of default "Extra Costs" defined. When that item is ordered and received in the PO system, these Extra Costs will be used in computing the Landed Cost of the Item. (Oct-18-2010)

For those functions that export data to Excel spreadsheets, the following enhancements have been made:

•	When titles are output, they will be formatted as bold in 14-point

•	When legends are output, they will be formatted as bold in 12-point

•	When headers are output, they will be formatted as bold and italic

•	Dollar amount data column will be formatted for "Currency", (where $ signs will be displayed with 2 decimal places)

The following applications have been revised accordingly, where applicable (Dec-15-2009) :

•	Inventory Item Maintenance – Properties Export

•	Physical Count Processing – Export functions – (with new default filenames of PhysicalCntOut)

When generating this report for a specific range of Inventory Items, the program looped continuously until canceled. The report had successfully been created, but did not actually exit. The problem has been fixed. (Jan-26-2009)
