Feature details

Features becoming mandatory with the 10.0.29 release

These features have become mandatory and can no longer be disabled.

  • Bill of materials report pre-processing to avoid timeout: Pre-processes the bill of materials report. This will help prevent timeout issues for reports that include a very large amount of data.
  • Default financial dimensions separately when using item templates: Lets you use the various financial dimensions (Business unit, Cost center, Department, Item group, and Project) separately when applying an item template. When the template is applied and contains one or more of the financial dimensions, instead of overwriting all the financial dimensions specified on the item, the dimensions will be treated separately. In other words, if a given financial dimension is specified on the item, its value for the specific financial dimension will be kept when applying a template that has a blank value for the financial dimension. And if the item's value for the dimension is blank or specified, and the item template defaults a value, then the value from the template will default on the item.
  • Enable product dimension groups for item templates: Adds support for product dimension groups in item templates for product masters.
  • Item - barcode entity improvements: Enables you to update, delete and use change tracking for item-barcode associations. You can do this using the new entity named item - barcode associations.
  • Regenerate product variant names based on nomenclature: Lets you regenerate product variant names based on their assigned nomenclature, thereby allowing you to update product variant names that already exist. This is useful, for example, in cases where you assign product variant names based on nomenclature that includes dimension names, which can change during the lifespan of a product variant.
