2.55.4

Tasks Management & Exception Notification Enhancements

June 22, 2026
Production

The task edit and unplanned-task entry screens gain richer fields and validation, and Management by Exception notifications are rewritten in clear, human-readable language.

Improvement

Tasks — Richer Task Edit & Unplanned Task Entry

The task edit page and the unplanned-task entry form have been expanded with additional fields and smoother data entry, making it quicker to capture and update task details in one place.

Task Management Global
Improvement

Management by Exception — Clearer Notification Content

Exception alerts (in-app and email) now read as plain, human-friendly sentences instead of terse technical strings:

  • The affected record is shown by its meaningful name (e.g. a task title or document name) rather than a bare id.
  • Severity is shown in friendly form (e.g. “Critical”) and the ageing is phrased naturally (e.g. “5 days”).
  • Detection and escalation messages explain what triggered the exception and that it needs attention.

AI Purchase Order Import Enhancements

June 22, 2026
Production

The AI-assisted customer Purchase Order import now captures the order type and feeds sales-order numbering, with a smoother extraction review and order-creation flow.

Improvement

AI PO Import — Order Type & Sales Order Numbering

The AI-assisted Purchase Order import now records the order type on the imported PO and applies it when generating the sales order number, with refinements to the extraction-review and create-order steps for a smoother end-to-end flow.

Hierarchy Management Workspace

June 21, 2026
Production

A completely redesigned Hierarchy Management workspace replaces the single graph view with a tabbed, type-scoped experience built for high-volume master data — a lazy-loaded tree editor and an Excel bulk-import wizard.

New Feature

Master Data — Intuitive Hierarchy Management Workspace

The Hierarchy Management screen is now a tabbed workspace scoped by hierarchy type, designed for large hierarchies (e.g. Materials Master with thousands of leaf items):

  • Manage Items — a lazy-loaded tree (children fetched on expand) with inline add-child, a breadcrumb parent picker, a live-validated code field with next-code suggestion, edit/deactivate/delete with guardrails, and server-side search with reveal-in-tree.
  • Bulk Import — a three-step wizard (upload & parse → dry-run validate & preview → atomic commit) with a per-type Excel template. Auto-create-parents is off by default to protect master data.
  • Explore — the existing relationship graph, refactored into a type-scoped tab.
  • Structure — an in-app Types & Levels designer with pattern presets and a live code preview (previously admin-only).

2.52.31

Receivables & General Ledger Accuracy

June 20, 2026
Production

A set of accounting fixes that make customer invoices, payments and the GL ledger tie out correctly — branch (ENT) tagging for statement rollups, posting of customer-payment journals, and a chronological running balance.

Bug Fix

Finance — Chronological GL Ledger Running Balance

The general-ledger running balance is now computed in strict chronological order, so the ledger displays a correct cumulative balance for every line.

Other Global
Bug Fix

Receivables — Customer Payment Posting & Invoice Clearing

Customer-payment journals are now posted instead of being left in DRAFT, payments clear the related invoice on posting, and decimal rounding on the receivable leg has been removed for exact amounts.

Other Global
Bug Fix

Receivables — Branch Tagging for Statement Rollups

Invoice and payment journal lines are now tagged with the correct branch (ENT) node, and both legs of a payment are kept on the same node, so customer statements and entity-level rollups balance.

Other Global
2.52.25

Batch-Aware Production Goods Issue & Inventory Accounting

June 19, 2026
Production

Production goods issue is now batch-aware end to end — manual batch selection, per-batch quantity validation and stock checks — and inventory GL account determination is made deterministic.

Bug Fix

Production — Finished-Goods Receipt Costing & Batch Numbering

Finished-goods receipt now values the actual produced quantity at actual cost, and the automatic batch number length is capped to avoid overflow.

Other Global
Bug Fix

Inventory — Deterministic GL Account Determination

Inventory financial postings now resolve their GL accounts deterministically:

  • Account determination no longer guesses accounts during migration; cost-group codes are standardised to two characters.
  • A new account-tag backfill command repairs existing data instead of inferring accounts at migration time.
Other Global
Improvement

Production — Batch-Aware Quantity Validation & Stock Checks

Production goods issue now validates the issue quantity and available stock at the batch level:

  • Issue quantities are checked against each selected batch.
  • Stock availability is verified per batch before posting.
  • Make-to-order goods issue falls back to unreserved batches when no reserved stock is available, and surfaces clear stock error messages.
Other Global
New Feature

Production — Manual Batch Selection on Goods Issue

When issuing material to a production order you can now pick the exact source batch(es) to consume, instead of relying solely on automatic selection. This gives the shop floor full control over which lots are back-flushed into work-in-progress.

Other Global
2.52.27

Materials, Purchase Order & Sales Order Enhancements

June 19, 2026
Production

Usability refinements across Materials, Procurement and Sales — open quantity on production goods receipt, richer Purchase Order line columns, Sales Order entry improvements, and cost-center tracking on cash journal transactions.

Improvement

Sales Order — Entry & Detail Improvements

The Sales Order entry page and order detail panel were refined with improved field layout and additional line-item detail for faster, clearer order capture.

CRM Global
Improvement

Materials — Open Quantity on Production Goods Receipt

The production goods-receipt screen now shows the open quantity for each receipt line — the selected variant’s open quantity when the line is variant-managed, otherwise the production order’s overall open quantity — so receivers always know how much is still outstanding.

Other Global
Improvement

Purchase Order — Currency & Balance Line Columns

The Purchase Order line-item detail grid now displays the line currency and the outstanding balance quantity alongside the received quantity, giving a clearer view of what is still to be delivered.

Procurement Global
Improvement

Cash Journal — Cost Center on Transactions

Cash journal transactions can now carry a cost center, so cash receipts and payments can be attributed to the correct cost object for reporting.

Other Global
2.52.29

Sales Dispatch Costing & Invoicing

June 19, 2026
Production

Dispatch now relieves finished-goods stock and books cost of goods sold automatically, invoice tax is calculated live from the sales order, and several receivables/delivery edge cases are fixed.

Bug Fix

Invoice — Retry GL Posting on Re-send

Re-sending an invoice after a general-ledger posting error now retries the posting, so a transient GL failure no longer leaves the invoice stuck.

CRM Global
Bug Fix

Delivery — Dialog Lookups for Users Without an Employee

Fixed an issue where the delivery dialog lookups collapsed for users who are not linked to an employee record. The dialog now loads correctly for all users.

CRM Global
Bug Fix

Receivables — Payment Allocation Fixes

Corrected accounting behaviour on the Payment Allocation screen for more accurate matching of receipts against open items.

Other Global
Improvement

Invoice — Live Tax Calculation from Sales Order

Invoice tax now calculates live and is copied from the originating sales order, so tax amounts stay consistent between the order and the invoice.

CRM Global
New Feature

Dispatch — Automatic Stock Relief & COGS Posting

Dispatching a delivery now posts a goods issue (GI-SALES) that relieves finished-goods inventory and books the cost of goods sold to the general ledger, keeping inventory and profitability accurate the moment goods leave the warehouse.

CRM Global
2.52.20

Guided Inventory Posting Setup

June 19, 2026
Production

A single guided stepper replaces the scattered admin screens for inventory financial account determination, and per-material cost groups can now be assigned directly on Material Master.

Improvement

Material Master — Cost Group Assignment

The cost group (valuation class) for a material can now be assigned directly from the Pricing & Valuation tab on Material Master, so routine master-data work no longer requires visiting the configuration screen. Effective-dated valuation history is preserved.

Other Global
New Feature

Inventory — Guided Posting Setup Workspace

A new five-step Posting Setup workspace consolidates inventory financial-account configuration into one guided screen:

  • Company & Policy, Cost Groups, Posting Logic, Account Matrix (with a GL-account picker and auto-fill heuristics) and Validate & Test with a dry-run movement check.
  • Copy a complete configuration from another company in one step.
  • Access is permission-scoped, with a new Inventory Accounting Configurator role; the entry lives under the admin Settings group.

Available at /materials/posting-setup.

2.52.16

Storage & Bin Transfers, Receivables Refinements

June 18, 2026
Production

New self-service Storage-to-Storage and Bin-to-Bin transfer screens for warehouse stock movements, plus further refinements to payment allocation and payments received.

Improvement

Receivables — Payment Allocation & Payments Received

Follow-up refinements to the Accounts Receivable screens: the Payment Allocation and Payments Received pages were adjusted for more accurate matching and display of receipts against open items.

Other Global
New Feature

Materials — Storage & Bin Transfers

New stock-transfer screens make it easy to move inventory within a warehouse without going through Django admin:

  • Storage-to-Storage Transfer — move stock between storage locations.
  • Bin-to-Bin Transfer — relocate stock between bins within a location.
  • Backed by new transfer APIs and movement reporting, with a dedicated Materials sidebar entry.
Other Global
2.52.14

Production Cost Accounting & Schedule III P&L

June 18, 2026
Production

A real-time, settlement-free Production Cost (WIP-control) ledger that capitalises material and conversion costs as work happens, variance analytics against a frozen standard, and a new Schedule III (Companies Act) Statement of Profit & Loss.

New Feature

Finance — Schedule III Statement of Profit & Loss

A new Schedule III (Companies Act) Statement of Profit & Loss is generated directly from posted journal lines:

  • Lines grouped by their Schedule III tag, with a keyword fallback for untagged accounts.
  • A derived “Changes in inventories of finished goods and work-in-progress” line.
  • Comparative prior-period figures.
  • A printable A4 PDF export.
Analytics Global
New Feature

Production — Cost Variance Analytics

At order release the planned cost is frozen as a reference standard, enabling variance analysis independent of the ledger:

  • Material, labour, overhead and utility variances per production order.
  • Material price-versus-usage breakdown.
  • Order-level and summary variance views.
Analytics Global
New Feature

Production — Work-in-Progress Cost Accounting

Production orders now carry a fully GL-backed Work-in-Progress (WIP) cost ledger that values shop-floor activity in real time, with no month-end settlement step:

  • Actual back-flush — material issued to production is capitalised to WIP, and each operation confirmation absorbs labour, overhead and utility cost at the routing rate × actual hours as it happens.
  • Balanced finished-goods receipt — when finished goods are received, the accumulated WIP is relieved pro-rata across all cost accounts, and scrap is posted separately.
  • WIP reconciliation — a reconciliation report proves that the sum of open-order WIP always ties back to the GL control account.
  • Cost on genealogy — batch genealogy now carries unit and total cost for full cost traceability.
