2. Drill-down ability is provided to PO Number/Order Number fields to display the original R/M Web Purchase Requisition/Sales Quotation.
Four new features are provided for A/P Payment Requisition
1. Provides the 'Adjust' ability to 'Payment' type payment requisitions.
2. Two improvements made for 'Misc. Payment' type requisitions:
a. Allows to maintain Tax Included flag.
b. Provides the G/L Account override ability.
3. Display a 'Total Amount' for selected requisitions on the 'To Approve List'.
4. Drill-down ability is provided for Document Number/PO Number/Order Number fields, to drill down to the relative R/M Web requisitions.

1. Normally, the Resource Manager workflow tables/records cannot be restored if you use the Sage 300 Database Dump/Load tools to do the database backup/restore. After a Sage 300 dump/load, you might encounter some workflow related errors, then you need to use the below 'Workflow Integrity' in the Admin Portal, to repair the workflow data.
In some cases, this tool cannot 100% repair the workflow-related data, like the pending 'Transfer', 'Endorsement Request' related records. For these cases, you will have to reject requisitions back to requestors and start over.
This tool can also be used to clear workflow temporary records to improve the system performance.
2. Improves the 'To Approve List' function to ensure all the validations can be properly processed.
In previous versions, users can maintain attachment only for ‘Open’ and ‘Awaiting Approval’ Requisitions, while this new feature allows user to upload/remove attachments for the following requisitions with a status of ‘Approved’ or ‘Posted’:
● AP Payment Requisition
● PO Receipt Requisition
● PO Invoice Requisition
● Sales Quotation
● A/R Invoice Requisition
To enable this feature, the 1st step is to assign the permission of uploading/removing attachments for ‘Approved’ and ’Posted’ requisition to ESS users through the ESS Group or ESS User in the Admin Portal.
Then ESS users are able to upload or remove attachments for ‘Approved’ or ‘Posted’ requisitions mentioned above.
Provides the 'To-confirm Invoices' tab to only list the to-confirm invoices.
Provides the approval ability for A/R Invoice Requisition.
Provides web screen for A/R Invoice Requisition List.
