New version of Quantify Released (version 3.0.570)

NEW FEATURES

• Consumables can now be tracked separately from your regular inventory. When consumables are shipped to a job they are removed from the branch inventory but not added to the job inventory. These items can also be billed to a customer and will show up on the invoice.
• For serialized equipment that requires servicing and inspections, such as swing stage motors, safety harnesses, tools, etc., Quantify now allows you to return these items to a service node under the branch. These items can be returned to the available stock via a service ticket.
• A new recurrent rent feature allows you to bill by units for non-inventory billing. This is common to industrial facility billing (leg-foot, volume, etc). These items are not tracked or deducted from the branch balance, but are comingled with the job inventory.
• You can now bill per-piece, recurring rent, and ship consumables to scaffold tags. There is an option to allow overriding consumable cost and price on the shipment.
• Added ability to auto-number jobs via a new global option and number option. Note that job numbers are not required to be unique.

ENHANCEMENTS

• Scaffold tags are now billable. There's a new order grouping to group by PO, which will include the PO and all work orders. A new invoice format has been added for this and other scaffold tags.
• Added a new checkbox in Options to control whether or not Quantify will set the tax rate to that which QuickBooks sets.
• Added custom properties to the various pivots that were missing these items.
• You can now prorate a purchase (new and used) to equal a certain amount.
• When creating estimates or shipments with consumables there is a new calculator that allows you to calculate the sell price based on the cost, as well as specify your desired profit margin or markup.
• Added a mechanism that prevents two people from running rental billing at the same time for the same job.
• New global option under report for shipments to hide additional charges on all shipments.
  Enhancement7=There is a new summary estimate report, which, similar to invoices, displays rent or sales as a single item. A taxable checkbox has also been added that applies to the rent or sell items.
• Added a new shipment report that shows pricing. This report is landscape and only available when completed shipments are selected.
• A new numeric slider on the shipment allows you to print multiple copies of a shipment when clicking OK.
• There is a new node under the tool crib (laydown yard) that shows the tools currently checked out. This node is only displayed when the laydown yard is checked on in global options to be a tool crib.
• You can now select all jobs under a single branch for rental billing using a new button on the billing dialog box.
• The rent extension pivot now has an option to include/exclude existing invoices.
• Service tickets now display what invoice the charges are included on. This is displayed in both the main grid as well as the pivot.
• The cost of an item has been added to the rate profile pivot. You can also now drop the prices into the total cells.
• The default save folder for pivots and the new report control now use the folder specified in My Options.
• To perform a branch office or laydown yard adjustment you must now select a menu option to lock other end-users out of completing shipments and transactions.
• Items flagged as billable on out of service when returning now default to being billable.
• You can now move a part from the branch to the To Be Serviced queue.
• For tool management, when checking in parts in the kiosk, we now honor the product catalog setting for servicing the returned item. This item is moved into the parent warehouse To be Serviced queue.
• The tool kiosk now shows the employee name when checking in and checking out.
  Enhancement21=A textbox has been added to the kiosk check out that will filter the list of tools to check out.
• The shipment custom text property now displays on the tool checkout in both the main app and the kiosk, as well as the pivot.
• You can now scan or enter a serialized tool in the kiosk check main window. If a serial number is found to be checked out, the check-in form will display for the employee and show all tools to be checked in.
• PERMISSION: Under the shipment there are two new permissions for add/edit and delete of delivery driver.
• PERMISSION: For transactions there was a single permission for all three actions (add, edit, delete), which now have their own permission.
• PERMISSION: For tool management there is a whole new set of permissions for managing employees at a tool crib.
• PERMISSION: Added a permission for the recalculation of average cost button and removed the permission for deleting a transaction (which isn't a function of Quantify)
• PERMISSION: Added a new permission for archiving an out of service product, which is location-based.

BUG FIXES

• When creating a copy of a rate profile the delivery charges and return credits were not being copied.
• Comments were missing from branch office adjustment history pivot.
• Fixed exception when adding an email address to an existing customer.
• When voiding a purchase or a re-rent (transaction that adds balances to the branch), and the parts that were originally purchased no longer exist, we were skipping these parts. This has been corrected and the balance at the branch is now driven negative.
• When checking in a part we now honor the serviced checkbox in the product catalog and return the part to the To be Serviced queue.
