37 -There are 2 types of reservations in StockM: from the existing stock in the warehouse and special orders from customers (received in StockM via the pto.csv file).
34 +Until now it was possible to assign the manager to the goods in StockM in two ways: when transferring data from the accountancy system during data exchange or to enter manager on the supplier card in StockM as responsible for the supplier's goods. In the first way, the system automatically assigned the manager to the supplier's items after the data exchange. 
35 +In case there are some managers working with different items of the same supplier – it would be wrong to specify just one manager. Therefore, according to the customer's request, we made it possible to assign a manager in StockM manually for each item. We recommend to use this function when it is not possible to transfer the manager from the accountancy system or assignment of one manager as responsible for all items of the supplier would be wrong.

39 -Since this update, StockM immediately included received pto order in the nearest order to supplier, the date when the order had to be fulfilled was not estimated.

42 +When a unit of measure of the supplier differs from the customer's unit of measure, it is possible to save the conversion of units of measure together with the rest parameters of the item in the supplier system.  According to it the quantity in the supplier units of measure will be calculated. To do this, you must specify the conversion coefficient and its type: multiplier [[image:daugiklis.PNG]] or divider [[image:daliklis.PNG]], that is of how many supplier units consists 1 unit of the customer, or how many customer units are included in 1 unit of measure of the supplier (so far there was a possibility to specify a multiplier only).

If at least 2 regular orders can be formed during the delivery time, then a maximum limit is applied to the ordered quantity, which is calculated according to the ratio of delivery frequency and duration and buffer. The maximum quantity also includes a PTO and a reservation so that ordered quantity was not restricted for special needs.

StockM Update 2020.05.07

StockM update 2020.03.19

PTO orders (pto.csv) validity period.

PTO orders in StockM can be entered manually or received via pto.csv from accounting.

The pto order received so far in StockM could be closed only if it was removed from StockM or if the pto.csv file was not received from accounting.

Since this update, it is possible to specify the number of days of validity of the pto order „Delete after X days“. The number of days can be entered in StockM, in the PTO orders window, or uploaded via pto.csv file. After the specified number of days after the „Delivery date“, the pto order / quantity will be removed automatically or no longer included in the orders to the supplier. If the field „Delete after X days“ is empty, the order has no expiration date.

StockM Update 2020.04.30

New setting for calculating buffer by coefficient.

In the Periods or Inventory window when calculating the buffer according to the specified coefficient, the buffer is calculated according to the formula:  

New BUF = (BUF - MOQ) * coeff. + MOQ

Since this update, this buffer calculation method has a selection / checkbox “Take into account MOQ” that allows you to select to take into account MOQ or not:

  • By default, the check mark is placed and the new buffer calculation formula remains as it was.
  • If the check mark is not placed, new buffer formula is:

 New BUF = BUF * coeff.

In other words, program did not take into account the fact that the customer / buyer does not need these goods now and they can be delivered later with next orders.

Now StockM will check what delivery date of pto is. In the separate field “Activate before X d.” the number of days before the necessary delivery date can be specified, i.e. when the order must become active and can be already fulfilled. If in the field “Activate before X d.:  

  • nothing is specified, the field is empty, the pto order will be processed immediately and it will be included in the nearest order to the supplier;
  • 0 is entered, the goods will be ordered with the last order, which will arrive before the specified delivery date;
  • certain number of days is entered, the order will become active in such a number of days before the “Delivery date” and will be included in the next order to supplier after this activation.

2. Verification by uploading data to StockM via Table L11.

When uploading data to StockM via table L11, the information was loaded only when there were no errors. If the program found errors, the information was not loaded. A list of items was displayed to the user and errors had to be corrected.

Since this update, information will be loaded from those rows that do not contain errors, and a list of errors will be shown to the user (errors can be exported to excel as before). Once the errors are corrected, the data will have to be uploaded for specified rows once again by entering information into a new / separate L11 table template.

 In the window of new order,  you can select a column to see the supplier quantity going to be ordered. This value goes to the order form by default.   

StockM update 2020.01.16

Taking into account free balance (quantity in stock) when forming a spec. order (PTO).

Some companies form spec orders (if such exists) using reservation which is transferred to StockM with the help of the PTO. csv file.

Since this update, new setting up in SM Admine is created by which you can choose whether to take into account the free warehouse balance, or to ignore it, when forming spec. order to the supplier.

If it is set that free warehouse balance does not have to be evaluated, the spec. order (PTO) will be sent to the supplier regardless of the current free balance in the warehouse. In other words, even the balance in stock is enough, spec. order will be sent to the supplier from the PTO file (the quantity is rounded up to the full packing).

The setup works at company level — for all items in all warehouses.
