Contexte Context

This update brings several major improvements such as redesigned vendor bills tracking, tolerance on quantity shipped, and the ability to split a purchase order line item in some key scenarios. 

Nouveautés

✯ Improved tracking of vendor bills
  1. From now on, it will be possible to do detailled tracking of bills in ALIX. In addition, with the Zoho Books integration, the payment status will be updated automatically when the payment is registered in the accounting system.
  2. To add purchase order lines to a vendor invoice, select them and then press "Add a bill".

  3. In the next popup window, it will be possible to directly create a manual bill or to create a new one in Zoho Books or add the lines to an existing bill that is in the "Open" status.

  4. The billed line count appears under the inventory list.
  5. To see the list of bills or update the quantity, simply click on the billed quantity. If the vendor invoice was created manually, the status can be changed here for tracking.
✯ Tolerance on shipments
  1. To improve the flexibility of the shipping operation, two new item configurations are available in the sales sub-tab.


  2. First of all, the possibility of indicating that the inventories of a particular item cannot be partially picked up during shipping. This will for example prevent a tag scan that would take a partial amount of an inventory when the shipping line is almost filled. This function can be combined with the next one on tolerance for better control.
  3. Tolerance will better manage cases where the exact quantity that will be shipped cannot be determined in advance. As long as the quantity collected is between the 2 boundaries (AR-: lower bound, AR+: upper bound), the shipment can take place. In addition, with the new billing behavior that consider the shipped quantity by default, this should greatly simplify these steps.


✯ Split a purchase order line
  1. From now on, it will be possible to split a purchase order line instead of just splitting the inventory. This will be possible if and only if only one inventory is associated with the purchase order line and this inventory is at the "to be received" status . In addition, it will also be possible to do it on the particular case of an inventory received, but with a current measure of 0.
  2. To divide the line, you have to select it and then press "Split".
  3. During the split, 3 values can be updated, namely the expected delivery date, the quantity and the unit cost. Note that the quantity must balance with the quantity of the line to be divided.
