Version History

v1.70 (3rd December 2004)


  • This version only available in client server versions.

New features

  • There is a new type of item – Ad Hoc item. These items can not be added directly to a customer invoice – but can be added to purchase orders. When a purchase order arrives, a customer invoice is automatically generated for the item.
  • Cross-reference items are another type of item that do not have any stock, but rather “point” to a different item. When you choose a cross-reference item the item to which it points is substituted.
  • Names and name codes can only be changed by users who have permission to do so.
  • Postal address fields added to names.
  • All name fields and address fields can now hold 50 characters.
  • Names now have a separate category drop-down list. You can set name categories for suppliers and customers separately.
  • Added accounts for items (that’s “accounts” as is accounting codes). You can manage accounts using the menu Items > Show accounts. Each item can have accounts set for an asset account, an expense account and an income account.
  • Expanded range of fields that can be imported for items and for names.
  • New purchase order printing format.

  • Item units are now stored in a table. Choose Item > Show units to view and add units.
  • Purchase orders now store the item name at the time of the order.
  • Purchase order access is divided by user permissions into those who can receive goods and those who can make invoices and enter/edit prices
  • Purchase orders now display invoices created from that order in a separate tab.
  • Supplier invoices now display the purchase order they were created from (or zero if they were not created from a purchase order).
  • Supplier quotes can now store information including supplier outer pack, supplier bar codes, price breaks and freight details.
  • Purchase orders can now have an expected price and units recorded for each item.
  • Customer pick slips and invoices record the date they were printed. They give a warning if you try to print an invoice that has already been printed.
