2022 - Eclipse Updates

08 Feb 2022

Removed the New Popout button under Invoice Entry → Attachments tab
1. This button had no functionality and was causing issues with stopping and starting the ChromeExplorerProcess.exe and spamming the Go-Global logs when pressed.
General Ledger → Financial Reports → Unposted Batches → Add Unposted to PO Column
1. A new checkbox called Add Unposted to PO Column has been added.
2. This was added for Nautilus. They are using DPF and are not able to post all their DPF Invoices before running a cost report due to them being in various stages of Approval.
3. Ticking this option will affect the PO balance of the cost report as some DPF Invoices that are not fully approved and posted may have reduced POs.
Cheque Printing and Posting Blocking
1. A system default under the General tab named Reset Locked Posting/Printing has been added. This allows users and the support team to reset any blocked modules instead of manually editing the eclipsed.ini files. See Another user is currently posting / printing - try again later
Invoice Inquiry Reports
1. Added the Invoice Date field as additional criteria to run reports over.
Invoice Entry → Send to DPF
1. Fixed an issue where sending an Invoice from Eclipse to DPF where it was not applying the correct approval group if the Invoice had been OCR’d.
General Ledger Reports
1. Updated glm:desc to pull in ext desc format (hire dates from - to etc).

Send To context menu
1. Removed all the broken Send To context Menus via Right Click. A User can still access Send To via the buttons in each module.
System Defaults → Tax Balance → Warn if no Tax Code Entered
1. Renamed this system default to “Block Posting if no Tax Code Entered” to better reflect its actual functionality. This option has always blocked a user from posting if they do not enter in a tax code to their transaction line.
Invoice Inquiry Reports → Section 16 Reports
1. Added functionality to run Section 16 Reports for NBCU. All databases can run this report.
2. The instructions on how to run this report can be found here: Section 16 Reports
Cheque Printing Blocking
1. Functionality has been implemented to only allow one user at a time to use the Cheque Printing function. This is to stop users from running cheques at the same time and breaking their data.
2. This functionality exists for every module but is now being rolled out to Cheque Printing.
3. If another user tries to enter the Cheque Printing window they will receive the message below until that user has finished printing their cheques or closed their window.
4. If the system becomes stuck in a state where no one can access the Cheque Printing window, it can be reset by TPH Support by following this guide: User unable to post a batch, print Cheques, or access Cheque Printing window

Send To context menu
1. Removed Word and Excel from the send-to context menus.
Invoice Entry/Petty Cash Entry → Right Click → Move to Batch context menu
1. Fixed an issue that could move the transaction into the incorrect numbered batch zero.

Petty Cash → Paste EU Petty Cash Form
1. Added some logic to prevent a tax line being created when ‘create dist line’ is unticked under Indirect Tax Codes.
2. A tax line will only be created if a tax code rate is >0% or if the ‘create dist line’ option is ticked under Indirect Tax Codes.
System Default → Tax Balance → Auto Create and Balance Tax Line
1. Added additional criteria for when a tax line is automatically created under Petty Cash.
2. Under the Indirect Tax Codes setup, If ‘create distribution line' is ticked or if the tax rate > 0 then a tax line will be automatically created for that tax flag.

System Default → Tax Balance → Auto Create and Balance Tax Lines
1. Added additional criteria for when a tax line is automatically created under Invoices.
2. Under the Indirect Tax Codes setup, If ‘create distribution line' is ticked or if the tax rate > 0 then a tax line will be automatically created for that tax flag.

Invoice Inquiry Reports
1. Fixed an issue with the paid date field returning Unpaid reports as blank.
Invoice Inquiry → Unposted Invoices
1. Fixed an issue that allowed users to edit fields that should not have been editable (Currency, Tran Number, etc).

Invoice Inquiry Reports
1. Updated 1099 reports with a paid date field
New Tax Balance System Default → Tax Balance → Auto Create and Balance Tax Lines
1. Added a new tax balance system default. It is turned off by default for all Australian databases and must be manually enabled. See: Auto Create and Balance Tax Lines System Default
