New Features and Enhancements
In alignment with this update, we have migrated the Synergy Updates service to an all new server and away from our former webhost provider in order to improve uptime and reduce the likelihood of errors that pop-up in Synergy when it is unable to reach the webserver.
Detailed Enhancement List
| Issue Key | Module | Description |
|---|---|---|
| SYN-1045 | Accounts Payable / Stock Control | The Supplier Invoice Number field in Accounts Payable and Stock Control has been extended to 20 characters in length. |
| SYN-34 | Accounts Payable | You can now set up Synergy so the saved accounts payable invoice will pop up automatically when receiving a purchase order. <<Click here to read the KB Article>> Note - this functionality is for Receiving Stock (Ordered) process only, not for Receive Stock (No Order). |
| SYN-283 | Accounts Receivable | The Journal Report is now included in the month end Print Key Reports list. |
| SYN-1048 | Autoshop | Indicative NZTA pricing presented within the software has been updated to align with current pricing structure. |
| SYN-1001 | Marketing | The Gross Profit Report by Staff, available in Marketing/Reports > Gross Profit, has been resigned to be much clearer in its presentation. |
| SYN-3 | Marketing | You can now display a list of customers based on their Created Date (a system generated date, based on when the customer was created/added to your database) by going to the *Client* list, clicking the *Select* *Clients* button and choosing the *Create Date* option. The subsequent display can be filtered by date range. |
| SYN-1047 | PumpLink | Analysed Purchase addon enhancement - users can now specify, in Payment Type Setup, to “Block ‘71 - Disallowed Products’ sales”. This will make the respective payment type unavailable in the payment screen if the transaction includes any products allocated to the “71 - Disallowed Products” analysed purchase code. |
| SYN-474 | Stock | When using the Receive Stock (Ordered) function the total cost of the purchase order will print on the bottom of the Received Order report. |
