New Features

  1. Account administrators can now enable two password policy settings:

    1. Users are required to regularly change their passwords.The password update interval is configurable.

      Important: at the moment, only Brazil POS (the newest Erply point-of-sale application) enforces this rule, ie. requires a user to update an expired password. Other applications and back office do NOT enforce this rule yet.

    2. Users cannot re-use old passwords: a new password must not be equal to the user's N previous passwords.

    To configure these settings:

    1. Go to user group permissions (Settings > User Groups) and enable access to "Account Security Settings".

    2. Go to Settings > All settings. From the sidebar, locate "Users" > "Account Security Settings".

  2. Field "Factoring contract number" has been added to customer form.

  3. When configuration parameter "unified_sales_and_cogs_report" (that merges the "Sales"and "Cost of Goods Sold" reports into one, and shows BOTH taxes AND costs) is applied, sales reports will now use document dates, instead of inventory transaction dates.

Improvements

  1. The "Erply User Guides and Help Center" and "News from Erply" boxes on back office dashboard can now be closed by clicking an "X" button if they appear too distracting. (The boxes will reappear after a certain period of time.)

  2. Back office now ensures that a new API session key is given to back office plugins after each login, and no keys from previous session are recycled.

Fixes

  1. Fixed: when setting "Partial fulfilment splits sales order" was enabled, creating an invoice from a sales order sometimes created an unnecessary follow-up order with a tiny quantity, even though the original order got completely fulfilled.

  2. Fixed: the popover that is displayed in the list of sales invoices (when pointing mouse cursor to an invoice number) now displays the discounted price, as well as the discount percentage applied. (Until now, only original price was displayed.)

  3. Fixed: deleting a customer from back office will now delete the customer's "integration IDs", too.
