What we shipped, in plain language.

The Dispute Management list now respects the items-per-page setting, so the disputes grid paginates as expected.

Fixes in Plant Maintenance, including the Failure Prediction and Work Order Part forms, so these screens save and display their data correctly.

Editing fields on a CRM Opportunity had a noticeable typing lag, where characters appeared slowly while the form re-rendered on each keystroke. The opportunity form and grid have been reworked so text fields now respond immediately.

A round of fixes and refinements to the Bill of Materials and Sales Order BoM workflows:

• Improvements to the SO BoM list and the BoM entry form.
• Corrections to the component allocation screen so allocated quantities and component details display reliably.

A batch of fixes and refinements across the Payroll module, including employee compensation, statutory components, GL configuration, bank file generation, payslip templates, posting logs, and retro-calculation screens. These improve data validation and the reliability of the payroll maintenance pages.

Added in-app help documentation walking through the Vendor Down Payment process — from raising and approving an advance to its payment and automatic adjustment against vendor invoices.

A new Vendor Down Payments capability in Accounts Payable lets you manage advances paid to vendors end to end:

• PO-linked and non-PO advances — raise an advance against a purchase order or as a standalone payment, as a percentage or a fixed amount (defaulting from the payment term's advance percentage). Multiple advances per PO are supported.
• Maker–checker approval — requests are created, approved, and then paid through a controlled workflow.
• TDS at source — tax is deducted on the advance using the configured TDS section.
• Automatic adjustment — advances are automatically applied against the vendor's invoices when those invoices post to the general ledger, with residual clearing.
• Reporting — an advances aging report and a per-vendor advance statement.

Available under /fi-ap/down-payments and gated by new down-payment permissions and roles (Requestor, Approver, Accountant).

Deleting a delivery note used to leave stale delivered quantities behind on the related sales order, which then carried through to invoicing. This is now corrected:

• Deleting a delivery note recomputes each affected sales order line's delivered quantity and delivery status from the remaining delivery note items, and refreshes the parent order's status.
• Invoice preparation now reads the live delivered total from the delivery note items instead of a cached field, so the remaining-to-invoice quantity reflects deleted or adjusted deliveries.

The Management by Exception (MBE) exception scan previously sent one email for every exception, for every recipient. A single scan can raise thousands of exceptions, so recipients were flooded — in one case a user received over 2,500 emails overnight. The notification flow has been reworked:

• The scan now creates only the in-app notification for each exception and no longer emails them individually.
• A new routine sweeps the un-emailed notifications, groups them by recipient, and sends one consolidated summary email with all of that user's exceptions.
• The daily scan moved from 02:30 to 09:00 IST so the digest lands during working hours.

The Sales Order Bill of Materials can now be converted directly into a budget in the Budget Control System:

• Generate a budget document from an SO BoM in a single action, carrying its planned material requirements and costs across.
• Keeps the committed sales order, its bill of materials, and the budget aligned without re-keying line items.
• Feeds the resulting budget into the existing Budget Control availability and consumption checks.

Refinements to the Sales Order BoM to Budget flow, improving the budgeting experience and the accuracy of the figures carried from the bill of materials into the budget.

The "Load a batch" / "Select a batch" pickers on the Batch Traceability pages started out empty and only populated after typing a character, so clicking the list showed nothing.

• The pickers now preload the 20 most recent batches the moment they open, on the genealogy, history, recalls, quality, and documents pages.
• The list opens on focus and still searches as you type.

Further usability enhancements and bug fixes across the Real Estate Management module.

Added in-app help documentation for the new User Defaults framework.
