2022 - Eclipse Updates

15 December (AU and UK)

  1. System Defaults → Scanning → Exclude Manual Cheques

    1. Added an option to prevent the creation of CK/C0 placeholder filenames when assigning a manual cheque number to an invoice (either via Invoice Entry or Invoice Inquiry).

    2. These CK/C0 attachment files were always blank PDF files as they needed a barcode scan uploaded to be populated.

    3. Ticking this checkbox will ensure these blank PDF files are never created. This option should be ticked on if you are not using Barcode Scanning.

    4. See: https://tphglobal.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/TPHCS/pages/1700954115/System+Defaults#Barcode-Scanning


13 December (AU) / 14 December (UK)

06 December (AU and UK)

  1. Accounts Payable → Invoice Entry

    1. Fixed an issue where invoice lines would sometimes not delete when deleting an unposted Invoice. This caused a problem which prevented trying to delete chart of accounts no longer required because of unposted data attributed to it.

  2. New Feature: Invoice Paste template paste in and user entry location default

    1. Implemented an option called AP Paste Loc from User Default into the Eclipse System Defaults.
      See:

    2. This system default changes the functionality of Eclipse. It uses the user specific location specified under Control Table → User Entry Defaults → Accounts Payable when pasting Invoice Cheque Request Templates from Excel. Normally this paste in uses the Location code of the Bank’s Control Account.

    3. Invoice Cheque Request templates are located here:

  3. New Feature: Ability to edit transaction dates after they have been posted

    1. Supervisor accounts in Eclipse can now edit transaction dates after they have been posted.

  7. Petty Cash → Petty Cash Fuel Entry

26 October (AU & UK)

  1. Petty Cash → Petty Cash Entry

    1. When a user pastes in a petty cash template, we are now attempting to clean some invalid newline characters which could previously corrupt the import into Eclipse - resulting in a failed paste in for the user

    2. We’ve added some fixes into the Attachments tab to try fix GPF crashes some users were running into.

  2. General Ledger → Cash Flow

    1. We have removed this incomplete module from Eclipse as this functionality will be merged into DPF.


19 October (AU & UK)

  1. New Feature: Budget Worksheet Approved Overages and Adjustments

    1. We’ve added two columns to the Budget Worksheet Excel Export called AppOverage and Adjustment.

    2. These two fields are not required to be filled out by the accountant, and are not required to be selected and highlighted when pasting the Budget Worksheet back into Excel for your budget updates.

      The AppOverage and Adjustment fields in the Budget Worksheet Excel Export can be used when the production has a locked budget but the studio/financier has agreed to extra expenditure rather than just increasing the EFC and it showing as an overage or by changing the budget. The accountant can now track these “Approved Overages” in the AppOverage column and have them show on their Cost Report.

      Instead of using an Approved Overage field, most productions will adjust the EFC or increase the budget fields, so your workflow does not need to change if you do not wish to use these fields.

    3. The guide on how to use these two new fields can be found here: .

    4. TPH Support can follow this guide for adding the new report into existing productions: .

  2. General Ledger → Ledger Inquiry Reports

    1. Cleaned some invalid characters inside transaction description lines which could corrupt the export of the BAS Report shown to the user.

  2. All Modules → Chart Lookup Function

    1. Fixed a bug where the chart look up function would highlight the “next” chart code in the list rather than the one that was entered. This fixes the chart lookup in the following modules:

      1. Control Account Selection

      2. Budget Worksheet Distribution Change

      3. Vendor Master Maintenance (PC Advance Account Selection)

  3. Petty Cash, Journal, Invoice and PO Entry Attachment Tabs

    1. Added a new library for determining the filename for attachment uploads. This should fix some intermittent crashes some users have been experiencing when uploading attachments to Petty Cash entry.

    1. To use this feature highlight a vendor in the vendor list, then navigate to the Invoices or Cheques tab.

       

    2. Highlight the Invoice or Cheque you want to view the attachments for and then click the Attachments tab.

    2. Users will no longer be allowed to send a Fully Approved DPF Invoice in Eclipse back to DPF. If they need to they will need to raise a New Invoice and send that to DPF.

       

    3. When Users are trying to send a Rejected or Partly Approved DPF Invoice in Eclipse back to DPF it will throw the below message. If they send the Invoice back to Drafts in DPF it will wipe all approvers and the user will need to send it for approval at the start of the approval chain.

       

    4. If Users are sending an existing Draft DPF Invoice back to DPF in Eclipse it will overwrite the currently existing one DPF.

25 Feb (AU & UK)

  1. Budget Worksheet → Chart Rebuild

14 Feb (AU) / 20 Feb (UK)

  1. System Defaults → Tax Balance → Balance Tax Before Posting

    1. Added some checks to catch edge case scenarios where the tax did not balance but a user was still able to post.

    2. These additional checks will catch issues were the user has flagged two separate tax types but has only one tax line, and where a vendor was set as a different tax type to what the tax line was being coded to.

  2. System Defaults

    1. Renamed some options to better reflect their functionality and removed some system defaults that had no functionality.

  3. System Defaults → Warn if posting a record/saving older than X Days

    1. Added the date check when saving records. Previously only checked when posting. This functionality can be switched off by changing the days to 0 or less warnings by increasing days. This check is essential to pickup malign dates pasted in.

  4. New Feature: System Defaults → Accounts Payable → Check Aust Bank Details

    1. Added a system default to check the bank details added to a vendor on edit and insertion. Also checks on saving an invoice and warns if bsb, account or account name are blank. It is only compatible with Australian bank detail formatting so should only be turned on by Australian Productions.

      1. Warns if BSB is not 6 numbers and removes any alphabetical characters and symbols.

      2. Warns if Acc Number is <6 or >9 numbers and removes and alphabetical characters and symbols.

  10. Invoice Entry → Right Click Context Menu → PasteChqList

    1. Added this option for Endemol Shine Australia to do a bulk AP upload of payments.

    2. The only caveat is that it defaults the coding to the TPH payroll tax clearing account. The user can do a dist change on the items via BWS after a paste if they included unposted AP in the BWS transactions (they would need to add this code to their COA).

    3. Chq list template attached to bottom of patch notes.

  11. Invoice Entry → PO Transfer

  2. 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.

  3. 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

    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:

  4. 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:
