The following issues are problems that may affect your decision to upgrade to this version of MoversSuite. The following issue is not resolved for this release.

Citrix issue with phone number control

An issue that cannot be replicated is causing the phone numbers within the Shipper Contact Information section (Name, Address, Phone tab) to disappear and then reappear when you click on that section, however, the user cannot edit them until they press Cancel (on the order) and then attempt to Edit again. (6409)

This section lists new functionality added to MoversSuite.

Combine Multiple Services into a Single Work Ticket and Generate Multiple Work Tickets at One Time

A new option is available from the Dispatch Center in Local Dispatch allowing you to combine multiple services into a single Work Ticket. The Combine on Work Ticket option is available through the right-click menu when you select multiple services for the same order and for the same day.

Figure 1: Right-click options within the Dispatch Center

When you choose this option, the application automatically assigns the services a Ticket Number but does not open the Report Viewer to view the report. However, anytime you press Work Ticket for any of the services associated to the ticket, the Report Viewer opens displaying the combined ticket report.

Alternatively, you can combine services without using the Combine on Work Ticket option. This is accomplished by selecting the services and pressing Work Ticket. The application combines all services for the same day and same order into a single ticket.  So, you can select as many services as you like in the grid and the application automatically combines all those with the same order for the same date of service into a single ticket. It also opens the Report Viewer allowing you to view the report for all tickets generated, in other words, the Report Viewer has been updated to view multiple Work Tickets at a time.

Figure 2: Sample Work Ticket report within the Report Viewer

Of note, if you include services that already have a Ticket Number, then the application simply displays the Work Ticket report.

View the Work Ticket topic for more information.

Additional Work Ticket Report Available

In addition to the standard Work Ticket Report, we now offer a specific report geared to the needs of an Office & Industrial move request.

The new report will be loaded automatically into your system when you upgrade. It will be available under the Menu Name of Work Ticket (O&I) within Report Setup. Administrators can assign this report to O&I user profiles through Report Profile Setup.

The new report is similar to the existing report, except for a few differences. The header includes the branch address and phone number. The Origin and Destination address pull from location set within the Contacts and Locations tab.

Figure 3: Work Ticket (O&I) Report

And, the crew lists on a second page with a few extra places to enter actual crew times.

Figure 4: Crew listing within Work Ticket (O&I) Report

View the Work Ticket (O&I) Report topic for the details that list within this report.

In a related change, the ability to choose from multiple Work Ticket reports is now available to you.

When multiple Work Ticket reports are available to you through your Report Profile, then when you click on Work Ticket from within the Dispatch Center, each available report displays as an option.

Figure 5: Work Ticket options within the Dispatch Center

Choose the report you wish to generate and the application opens the report in the Report Viewer.

Administrators can assign multiple Work Tickets to a profile through Report Profile Setup. Reports with a System Location of Work Ticket Report appear as an option through the Work Ticket function.

Figure 6: Report Setup

Of note, if only one report links your Report Profile, then the default Work Ticket automatically generates without requiring you to select it from a list.

Custom Sort Fields Added to Local Dispatch grid

Two custom sort fields are available within the Dispatch Center grid in Local Dispatch. Sort 1 and Sort 2 allow you to type a value directly into the grid cell (up to 16 characters). You can use this value to assist you in organizing services and your workflow.

Figure 7: Sort columns within the Dispatch Center

The features available to other fields in the grid are available to these new fields as well, such as sorting, grouping, filtering, etc. For example, if you entered a Sort 1 of “Crew 1”, then you can filter the grid to just display Crew 1 entries.

Figure 8: Filtering options on sort fields

In addition to typing directly into either field, you can utilize copy and paste features. Use CTRL+C to copy a text entry from just about any Windows source, including MoversSuite. Use the CTRL+V keyboard combination to paste the entry directly into one of the sort fields.

The data entered within Sort 1 or Sort 2 is only available within the Dispatch Center grid.

List of Fields Tracked by Order History Updated

The list of fields tracked by Order History now includes the following:

On the Military/Government tab:

Within SIT Information:

Refer to Order History for more information.

Building Constraints Now Link to Buildings

For those of you utilizing the Office & Industrial module, you now have a feature allowing you to link defined building constraints directly to building records.

The constraints defined within Building Constraints Setup now link to Building Setup records, allowing you to provide specific constraint information for each building.

Figure 9: Building Setup

By default, all constraints defined within Building Constraints Setup display within the Job Information tab for all buildings. The constraints added within Building Setup records override those set within Building Constraints Setup. This allows you to automatically set Yes flag and to provide a Note pertaining to the specifics of the building record. In the above example (Figure 9), the Elevator constraint overrides the default Note set for the constraint below (Figure 10) and automatic shows the Yes flag as checked.

Figure 10: Building Constraint item

Again, all defined constraints appear for all buildings. The option to assign specifics for a building is what is now available through Building Setup.

Figure 11:Building Constraints tab within Job Information

Building Constraints Available as Letter Management Bookmarks

The Building Constraints set within the Job Information tab on an Office & Industrial order are now available as Letter Management bookmarks.

Figure 12: Insert Bookmark screen

Three bookmarks have been added allowing you to display the constraints of the destination location, the origin location, and all the other locations specified within the Contacts and Locations section.

When a document generates with one of the new bookmarks, the application inserts it as a table with appropriate labeled sections and background color.

Figure 13: Sample bookmark for Building Constraints

You can modify the table by adjusting column width, removing rows, changing font and background color, and more.

Specifics of each new bookmark displays in the following table.

Refer to Letter Management and to Office & Industrial Bookmarks for further details.

Additional Bookmarks Available

We added several fields to the list of items available as Letter Management Bookmarks. You can now access the following to add to your custom documents and emails.

All the new bookmarks list under Order Information Bookmarks, which are available under the Order Information group within the Insert Bookmark screen.

Of note, the Survey Time is one bookmark for two fields: Start Time and End Time. If both times are specified, then the bookmark renders the date as the time separated by a dash, e.g. 09:00 AM – 12:00 PM.

UniGroup International Download Sync Function Available

When working on an UniGroup International order and you wish to manually sync the order to the data within UniGroup, then you can evoke the UniGroup International Download option. This option is available through the Tools Menu.

Figure 14: Tools Menu

When you select this option, the application all data associated to the order within the UniGroup International system and updates the corresponding data within MoversSuite.

This option is only available for UniGroup International orders viewed through the International Orders module.

Refer to UniGroup International Download for more information.

This section lists any fixes made to MoversSuite.

Administration

User password rule change

When establishing a new MoversSuite user, the application now requires that the password be a minimum of six characters in length (as set through the Password field within the User tab in Personnel Setup).

This change only affects newly defined users. All existing users can change their password without needing to specify the new, six-character requirement. (4683)

Local Dispatch

Entering actuals for one service is not copied to another

When two requests are assigned to the same crew and actuals entered for one of the services, the application no longer copies the actual data to the other service. (4731)

Payment Management

Generic CSV Import invoice only updates

If the Customer or Service Code is not set within the Generic Import and only the Invoice Number is referenced to identify the order, then the application now set appropriate indicators to identify the needed customer and service codes. Prior to this release, if only the Invoice Number was set (no Order Number nor GBL Number), then the apply was unable to match on service code and a missing customer number resulted in an error when importing through the Statement Import Summary (Generic Import). (4720, 4722)

Revenue Entry

Multiple-session check for generated transactions

When editing revenue items, MoversSuite now checks to verify that transactions have not been generated prior to saving the changes. This check is to ensure that when the same revenue items are being edited concurrently by either another party or by a different session, that the edits made after the transaction give proper notice to the other party or session window. This change affects adding and editing of commissions, Revenue Item, Revenue Group, and third-party items. (4125)

Invoice Number Only Generic CSV Import Not Working

If the Customer or Service Code is not set within the Generic Import and only the Invoice Number (no Order Number nor GBL Number included) is referenced to identify the order, then the application cannot determine the service codes when applying. Also, the process cannot determine the customer, therefore an error is received when importing the statement. NOTE: If the Order Number or GBL Number is supplied, then the import works as expected. (4720)

Citrix issue with phone number control

An issue that cannot be replicated is causing the phone numbers within the Shipper Contact Information section (Name, Address, Phone tab) to disappear and then reappear when you click on that section, however, the user cannot edit them until they press Cancel (on the order) and then attempt to Edit again. (6409)

Refer to the Letter Management topic for more information on creating customized documents and emails.

Atlas SUDS Interface XML Download

The Atlas SUDS Order Download process has been modified to now accept XML formatted requests from Atlas SUDS interface that add orders directly into MoversSuite while utilizing the Standard XML Pipeline. Prior to this feature, MoversSuite only accepted physical files and interpreted them based on their location on your system.

Only a few configuration changes are needed to begin utilizing direct XML through the Atlas SUDS Order Download process. You can view the Atlas SUDS XML Order Download Setup topic to see a full set of setup instructions.

This section lists improvements made to MoversSuite.

Generic Import can identify record based on Invoice Number

The Generic Import process can now identify a MoversSuite order based on the Invoice Number included in the file. Prior to this enhancement, the Order Number or GBL Number was needed to identify a MoversSuite record. Many of you utilize the Generic Import to process remittance information that may not necessarily include an Order Number or GBL Number.

If your file includes the Order Number or GBL Number, then the application attempts to locate the order by matching one of these values. Otherwise, if neither is specified, then the application attempts to locate the order based on what is specified for the Invoice Number in the file.

This section lists any fixes made to MoversSuite.

General Application

Updated development tools to correct screen scaling

The DevExpress tool utilized to compile the MoversSuite application have been updated. The newly updated software and related VCL libraries are needed to address a scaling issue on some environments, most notably on the MoversSuite cloud-hosting environment (Microsoft Azure). (4129)

Related Orders accessing correct security information

The security around the Related Order functionality (Move Information tab) for the Find and Go To features has been improved to recognize user security access. Prior to this release, the Related Order functionality only worked inside the International Orders and Special Services modules if the person also had security access to Order Information. (4666)

Administration

Incorrect Rate Mask on Commissions

Although all calculations for commissions are correct, the Commission Amount displays as a dollar amount though the Commission Type is set to Percentage within the Commission Plan Setup.

Figure 33: Commission Plan Detail within Commission Plan Setup

In the above example (Figure 34), the Commission Amount should read as “100%.” Again, the application calculates the commission amount correctly based on the type. With this release, no masking of the Commission Amount displays. (4687)

Atlas Statement Security Module

The upgrade process now inserts the Atlas Statement Integration module into the MoversSuite database. Prior to this release, the EWS Group Support Team manually added this module where needed. On systems that utilize this module, you can assign personnel to this module through their Security Profile Setup. Refer to the Atlas Statement Integration listing within Security Modules for more information. (1411)

MoversSuite API Service auto start after reboot

Options have been implemented to set the MoversSuite API Service to automatically start on a delay after an upgrade (which generally involves a system reboot). The option applied of Automatic (delayed start) gives the Microsoft SQL Server a chance to be up and running before the MoversSuite API Service is started. (1560)

Connections

SIRVA QLAB processes all imports based on UTC time

Time issues related to order notes downloaded through the SIRVA QLAB Integration system have been corrected by updating all processes to be based the UTC time. (3783)

Shipment Type converted correctly on upgrades

The upgrade process updates the mapping for Shipment Type Setup records to reference the correct XML Interface. Prior to this release, the upgrade process did not set the interface mapping on Shipment Type records which caused errors within the UniGroup HHG Upload. (4668)

Local Dispatch

Notification emails sent correctly

When multiple services are selected and the services cleared or declined within the Requested Services screen, individual email messages are sent out to each appropriate party on the order. Prior to this release, if multiple services were selected and cleared at the same time, a single email message was sent to potentially the wrong audience. (4075)

Payment Management

Auto Apply Options default to those set through Payment Application

The settings you save through the Import Auto Apply Options screen from within Payment Application are now available as the default settings when accessing this same screen from within Statement Import Summary. (3874)

Cleared Driver Number field no longer causing CSV statement import error

When a Driver Number is cleared (blanked-out) within the Dispatch tab on Personnel Setup records, the application sets the value to a NULL within the database. This prevents any confusion about whether the field is set or not. Prior to this release, it appeared that multiple drivers (all with blank Driver Number values) were attached to the same vendor account which prevented statements from importing through the CSV Import process. (4679)

No more error message when attempting to add a duplicate order to a payment

You can use the Quick Find and the Find available through the Payment Application screen to add an order to a payment. With this release, if you attempt to add an order that already exists on the payment, instead of receiving an error message, the application automatically expands the payment information for the specific order you were searching for. On previous releases, if you attempted to add an order that was already on the payment, you received the following error: “That order is on the current payment and will be ignored.” (4662)

Recurring Billing

Handling of archived orders on storage run

When storage billing is run in arrears, the application retrieves the original Order Number associated to an archived order for proper billing during the time the order was active during the billing period. Prior to this release, if the application encountered an archived order with active billing, it would halt the storage run with an error. (3716)

Field label correction within Payment Setup

The Payment Setup field label related to the email generated through Recurring Billing and Storage has been updated to indicate Email Recurring Billing Invoice to by default.

The following issues are problems that may affect your decision to upgrade to this version of MoversSuite. The following issue is not resolved for this release.

NEW: Incorrect Rate Mask on Commissions

Although all calculations for commissions are correct, the Commission Amount displays as a dollar amount even though the Commission Type is set to Percentage within the Commission Plan Setup.

Figure 34: Commission Plan Detail within Commission Plan Setup

In the above example (Figure 34), the Commission Amount should read as “100%.” Again, the application calculates correct based on the type, i.e. the example amount is interpreted as 100%. (4687)

Citrix issue with phone number control

An issue that cannot be replicated is causing the phone numbers within the Shipper Contact Information section (Name, Address, Phone tab) to disappear and then reappear when you click on that section, however, the user cannot edit them until they press Cancel (on the order) and then attempt to Edit again. (6409)

This section lists new functionality added to MoversSuite.

Local Service Unit Standardization

The administrative side of Local Services setup has been standardized to allow your company to define custom units for calculations of hourly crew needs. On prior releases, the options within System Wide Options allowed you to set the following:

•    Minimum Number of Packers

•    Minimum Number of Loaders

•    Maximum Number of Cartons

•    Number of Hours per Packer per Day

•    Number of Hours per Mover per Day

•    Maximum Load Weight

•    Cartons per Hour

And in Local Service Type Setup you could specify the following:

•    Average Cartons per Hour

•    Average Weight per Hour

All nine of these options have been removed and replaced by settings within Local Service Type Setup and Local Service Type Setup. The following table provides a summary of the changes made to these settings.

Additionally, the Units setting within Local Service Type Setup provided only two options for Weight and Cartons. These options are now part of the Local Service Unit Type Setup that allows you to define custom units assignable to a Local Service Type. Further, you can now specify a Field Label for the type that displays within the Add Local Service screen.

Figure 35: Local Service Type Setup defaults of Cartons and Weight options

Additionally, the average settings associated to a Local Service Type have been incorporated into a single Units per Hour setting within Local Service Type Setup (Figure 36).

Figure 36: Local Service Type Setup

MoversSuite updates existing Local Service Types to reflect the new settings during the upgrade process. It utilizes the values within the prior settings along with what is set for the Labor Type field within Local Service Type Setup to determine values for the new fields.

In addition to the two default units for Cartons and Weight, your company can establish additional types to accommodate a variety of needs. For example, you can establish a type for packing computers within Local Service Unit Type Setup.

Figure 37: Local Service Unit Type Setup

Based on the example above, new Local Services requests would include at least one crew person and will assign an additional crew person once the total number of hours reaches 5.

This Unit Type is assigned to the Local Service Type through the Units field within Local Service Type Setup. Assuming that a typical person can pack ten computers per hour, set the Units per Hour to 10 (Figure 38).

Figure 38: Local Service Type Setup

Continuing with these example settings, when a request is established within Add Local Service for 75 computers, the application computes Total Hours Required of 8.50. This includes 7.5 hours for labor (75 computers divided by 10 units per hour) plus an additional one hour for drive time. Since the time needed exceeded 5 (set as the Number of Hours per Crew), an additional person was added to the service request (Figure 39).

Figure 39: Add Local Service

Refer to Add Local Service, Local Service Type Setup, and to Local Service Unit Type Setup for more information.

Save Features Added to Day Note

The Day Note functionality on the Dispatch Center tab has been improved to include a date selector; the additions of Auto Save, Save Note, and Cancel options; and functionality to manage concurrent note updates from multiple users.

Figure 40: Day Note section within the Dispatch Center

The date selector allows you to view a Day Note without having to navigate away from the Dispatch Center tab. The selector provides the ability to enter a date manually or choose one from the date menu. Once a selection is made, the Day Note for the corresponding date displays.

Figure 41: Calendar Control

Save options include the options to Save Note or Cancel your changes, and an Auto Save option that keeps any changes you make automatically without the need to press Save Note.

Changes made on the Day Notes tab include the ability to Save and to Delete the note altogether.

When changes are made and not saved, the application recognizes this and prompts you to save the updates or to disregard them.

Figure 42: Note exists notification

The application also confirms any changes made by another user that may be updating the note for the same day at the same time. In the case that a note was updated while you were making changes, you receive a prompt requesting to append the Day Note with your changes.

Figure 43: Concurrent note update warning

If you continue with adding the note, the application inserts the text of your note into the body of the one saved by a different user. The application also tags the addition with “—Appended” followed by the date and time the addition was made.

Figure 44: Day Note section within Dispatch Center

Additional Job Costing Fields

The Job Costing data available through the Single Order tab now includes the following data fields:

Figure 45: Single Order tab within Job Costing

You now have the Valuation option that you can assign to events within the Field Requirements Setup.

Figure 48: On Create event within Field Requirements Setup

Refer to the Field Requirements topic for more information.

This section lists improvements made to MoversSuite.

Rate Field Expansion

The rate amount field in MoversSuite has been expanded to accommodate additional places beyond two decimals. For example, you can now provide rate information for a sales tax with three or four places, e.g. 7.375.

This change affects rates assigned to a rate plan through Rate Plan Setup.

Figure 49: Add/Edit Rate section within Rate Plan Setup

This change also affects rates applied throughout the application, such as when adding revenue items and group.

Figure 50: Add/Edit Revenue Group screen

General Application

Index added to AcctTransactions table

In order to increase runtime processing, an index has been added to the AcctTransactions table on a combination of Order Number, Item Description, and Source. This improves the efficiency of retrieving information related to accounting transactions stored within MoversSuite. (4100)

Connections

Document Management file path saved on Azure

The application now saves the last path you accessed when adding documents through Document Management on the MoversSuite hosted environment (Azure). (2501)

Time correct on SIRVA QLAB downloads

The application now adjusts based on UTC times for items imported through the SIRVA QLAB Integration. Prior to this fix, the time indicated when notes imported were incorrect. (3784)

International Orders changes no longer affect SIRVA QLAB requirements

The requirements for a user credentials now only affect UniGroup International orders. Prior to this fix, the requirement checks also affected SIRVA QLAB Integration. (4681)

Modifications for in-flight orders in UniGroup International

The UniGroup International system has been updated to recognize when an order exists in trafficking. In such cases, MoversSuite requests a download and provides a message regarding the status within Third Party Application Error Management. (4661)

UniGroup International orders prevented from being rebooking

If an International Orders record is booked and linked to the UniGroup International system, then MoversSuite does not allow the order to be rebooked. (4682)

Letter Management

“C” removed from Claim Items bookmark

The Claim Items bookmark within the Letter Management system no longer displays an extra letter “C” at the start of the first item listing. (4028)

Local Dispatch

Calculated service hours no longer being cleared

The number of hours anticipated for a service is no longer being cleared when the service is edited. Prior to this release, some events triggered the Hrs/Man field within Add Local Service to be cleared when the service was edited. (4065)

Office & Industrial

Required field updates for Office & Industrial orders

When Field Requirements logic is evoked for an Office & Industrial order, the application no longer attempts to validate fields that are not available through the Office & Industrial module. (4076)

Recurring Billing & Storage

Correct storage begin date displays on invoice items

Prior to this release, invoices for storage billing incorrectly displayed the Begin Billing Date of the entire billing record (set on the Billing Record tab) and not the start billing date for the specific item (set the Billing Items tab) when listing detail storage items. The application did calculate the storage amount correctly. And, with this release, now displays the starting date of the storage item correctly on invoices. (3802)

Customizable Unit Types for Local Service Types

Changes to the Local Service Type Setup allow your company to specify custom units for the labels and calculation of Local Services requests.

You can create values within the new Local Service Unit Type Setup.

Figure 54: Local Service Unit Type setup

And, assign them to the Units field within Local Service Type Setup.

Figure 55: Local Service Type setup

There is no longer a need to specify separate unit of measurements by weight or carton count, so the Average Cartons per Hour and Average Weight per Hour fields have been incorporated into a single Units per Hour field.

Figure 56: Local Service Type setup

MoversSuite automatically converts any existing Average Cartons per Hour and Average Weight per Hour value to corresponding Units per Hour value. For example, an Average Weight per Hour value of 600 before the release translates into 600 in the new Units per Hour field.

More changes related to this functionality are slated for the next release of MoversSuite.

MoversSuiteCrew Updates

O&I Invoices display Origin and Destination Addresses

You now have the option to specify an Origin and Destination address from the list of Locations found on the Contacts and Locations tab of an Office & Industrial order. The Location Address Type option is available when you add or edit a location through the Add/Edit Order Location screen and provides the choices of Origin, Destination, and Other.

Figure 59: Add/Edit Order Location

The default is set to Other when you add a new location. Further, the system allows only one Origin and one Destination address. For example, if you add a new location and select Origin and there was already an Origin location, the application updates the new record to be the Origin and changes the existing one to Other; you do not receive a warning or error.

With this change, addresses associated to the Origin and Destination location of an Office & Industrial order display on invoices.

This section lists any fixes made to MoversSuite.

Connections

Country code for Extra Stops interpreted

The country code of each Extra Stops record is now interpreted and set correctly. Prior to this release the default country code set within the System Wide Options was referenced. This change affects all imports utilizing the Standard XML Pipeline, which include imports from Atlas and UniGroup. (4671)

No duplicate ports for International Order download

A check has been added to avoid duplicate ports within the Vessel/Voyage and Flight Information listing when an order downloads. Prior to this release, duplicate ports for different legs appeared after an import into the International Orders module. (4675)

Error handled for lift vans/containers on order but not on download

An issue has been corrected that caused an exception on an import from UniGroup International. Prior to this release, if an existing order in MoversSuite contained either a lift van or container and the import order did not, then an error state was encountered for the order import. (4677)

Local Dispatch

Improved security for Local Dispatch

The security around the Local Dispatch module is now independent from that of the Order Information module. On past releases, you could perform some functions through Local Dispatch without having proper security access. Now you can only view, edit, and add orders in Local Dispatch to which you have appropriate branch access through the Local Dispatch module. In other words, if you wish to add services through Local Dispatch for Branch A, then you must have FULL access to the Local Dispatch module for Branch A established within your Security Profile Setup record.

Related to this change is an update to the Open Order function within Local Dispatch. You now receive a warning if you attempt to open an order associated to a module that you cannot access (based on Security Profile Setup).

Figure 60: Information dialog

(8801, 8829)

Clear Service Times

You now have the option to clear service times not associated to crew or equipment assignments. To clear the times within the dialog, highlight the entry, press the Delete key (on your keyboard), and then click in a different field. The service time resets to its default of 12:00 AM but once you save the entry, this default clears out as well.

An image (e.g. picture) sent through the MoversSuite Email Service is now formatted to allow the image to be accessible and visible through Microsoft Outlook. (8899)

No errors on recurring storage run with automatic email messaging

MoversSuite Email Service no longer causes errors during a Recurring Billing storage run. Prior to this release, the storage billing run would produce an error when setup to automatically email invoices to storage accounts. (8953)

UniGroup International

Correct mapping for phone number types on download

An issue with the mapping of phone types has been fixed. This issue prevented origin and destination, along with affect phone numbers, to not download from UniGroup International. (4109)

Message regarding upload/download

When an upload or download occurs, a message is written to the Third Party Application Error Management log to provide information on when the last update occurred. Prior to this fix, only errors were written. (4108)

Updated mapping codes

The mapping codes associated to an order have been updated as follows:

•    Added PERMANENT_STORAGE as a supported Service Type Setup record

The following issues are problems that may affect your decision to upgrade to this version of MoversSuite. The following issue is not resolved for this release.

Citrix issue with phone number control

An issue that cannot be replicated is causing the phone numbers within the Shipper Contact Information section (Name, Address, Phone tab) to disappear and then reappear when a user clicks on that section, however, the user cannot edit them until they press Cancel (on the order) and then attempt to Edit again. (6409)

This section lists new functionality added to MoversSuite.

Improved Options for Import Revenue from Local Services

When you import revenue for Local Services through the Import Actuals function, you now have two options to assist you in determining how the items import.

Figure 64: Import Actuals screen

Import Revenue As options:

Import Labor and Hourly Equipment as a single revenue item

Choose this option to bring in revenue associated to labor and/or hourly-based equipment as a single transaction item. When importing items, the application combines revenue for the same Service Code (Item Code) across multiple items into a single line entry. For example, if there are two items under Service Code 6016, then the application combines the amount into a single entry under the 6016 code. This is the default behavior of the import function, i.e. how it worked before this release.

Import Labor and Hourly Equipment as individual revenue items

Choose this option to import revenue items associated to labor and/or hourly-based equipment as separate revenue line items based on the rate amount applied, as either regular, overtime, or double time. For example, if multiple crew work the service and their time links to a single Service Code, then the application creates up to three separate revenue items under that same Service Code: One for regular time, one for overtime, and one for double time.

For example, if you have hourly charges to Service Code 6016 at a regular rate of $35 and an overtime rate of $52.50, then two items list for Service Code 6016 (Figure 65).

Figure 65: Transaction tab

Additionally, equipment resources charged on an hourly basis list separately.

Figure 66: Transactions grid

In addition to the two import options, the application includes the work ticket number and date of service within the group and item description. In the above example (Figure 66), the work ticket number of 1001 is appended to the group name for “Local Move” and the service date of “05/15/2017” prepends the description for each imported item.

Additional Required Fields Available

The list of Required Fields now includes the following items:

View the Field Requirements Setup topic for a complete list of required fields and events that trigger Required Fields functionality.

Sales Team Commission Split

Your company now has the option to automatically split commissions based on a sales team assigned to the Account Profile of an order.

Figure 67: Order Defaults tab in Account Profile Setup

Within Account Profile Setup, you can now define a sales team comprising of Commissionable Employees that receive a share of the commission received by the Salesperson on the order. Use the Sales Team Split section on the Order Defaults tab to establish the person receiving the split along with their percentage.

Figure 68: Add Sales Team Split screen

In MoversSuite, the application auto-generates the split commissions based on the profile settings. Additionally, split commissions generate automatically when adding commissions manually through the Add Revenue Commission screen.

Figure 69: Add Revenue Commission screen

In order for the application to automatically generate the Sales Team Split, the Salesperson on the order must match the Salesperson set on the Account Profile assigned to the order. Personnel on the Sales Team must also be Commissionable Employees but do not need to be assigned to the order to receive the split.

This section lists improvements made to MoversSuite.

Add service in Local Dispatch without selecting a date range

On prior releases, if there were no services listed in the main grid, then the Add button was disabled. The Add button allows you to create a new Local Services request that is already available for dispatching.

With this release, the Add button is enabled within the Dispatch Center at all times.

Figure 70: Dispatch Center tab

Work Ticket Report no longer displays Dispatch Note

With the ability to display Service Instructions on the Work Ticket Report (MoversSuite 2016 R03), the need to display a Dispatch Note became superfluous. The Dispatch Note listed on the report under Service Note.

Increased Branch Name for Invoices and Reports

You can now specify up to 255 characters for the branch name that appears on invoices and work tickets.

The Title set for the various address types within Branch Setup has been increased in size from 50 characters to 255.

Figure 71: Add/Edit Branch Address within Branch Setup

This change affects what displays on Invoices and the Work Ticket Report.

Figure 72: Invoice example

This change only applies to newly created reports and invoices. Invoices and reports already generated are not affected by this change.

This section lists any fixes made to MoversSuite.

Local Dispatch

Clear Service email now references service branch

The email generated when a service clears in Local Dispatch is now sent to the personnel associated to the branch of the service instead of the branch of the order. Refer to Automatic Email Service for more information. (8562)

Of note, you can only remove items in this manner if they are not part of group nor an ad hoc entry. To remove items belonging to a group, you must un-group the items first.

Use the  button to remove any ad hoc line items.

International Orders User Interface Updates (Phase V)

Location Name and Location Code Added

Two new fields are available within the Customs Inspection Information screen allowing you to document the Location Code and Location Name of an inspection.

Figure 74: Customs Inspection Information

View the Customs Inspection Information topic for detailed information. (8834)

International Transportation Mode Updates

The External Codes associated to the Transportation Mode have been updated to reflect recent UniGroup changes. The supported codes are now included as default mappings to the UniGroup International interface. Transportation Mode Setup now offers the following default codes:

The Transportation Mode is set for an International Orders record on the Shipping Information tab. (8848)

International Container Size Updates

The External Codes associated to the Container Size have been updated to reflect recent UniGroup changes. The supported codes are now included as default mappings to the UniGroup International interface. Container Size Setup now offers the following default codes:

The container Size is set for an International Orders record within Add Container screen accessible through the Container/Lift Van/Airbox Information tab. (8849)

The container Load Type is set for an International Orders record within Add Container screen accessible through the Container/Lift Van/Airbox Information tab. (8850)

Overtime rules applied to Labor in Job Costing

You can now apply overtime rules to costing within Job Costing. The Overtime Hourly Wage and Double Time Hourly Wage settings are available to employees within the Accounting tab within Personnel Setup.

Figure 75: Accounting tab in Personnel Setup

MoversSuite now applies the overtime or double rate for the Cost amount in the same manner as it does when computing the Rated Amount. The rate applied from the Personnel Setup record is based on what is defined within the Rate Schedule for Labor to compute the Cost that displays within the Job Costing screen. Example: If an employee works two hours of overtime at $25/hr. (see Overtime Hourly Wage in Figure 75), then the Labor cost computes for the employee as $50.00.

Figure 76: Single Order tab in Job Costing

Note: If the Overtime Hourly Wage or Double Time Hourly Wage are not set, yet the Regular Hourly Wage is, MoversSuite computes the overtime rate as 1.5 times the regular rate and the double rate at 2 times the regular rate. In other words, you can just set the Regular Hourly Wage and the application will automatically compute the overtime or double time for you (based on the 1.5 or 2 multiplier).

Read more about this subject within the Job Costing and Job Costing Rating topics.

This section lists any enhancements made to MoversSuite.

Cost column visible only to managers in Job Costing

The Cost column within the Job Costing screen is now visible only by those assigned as managers to the Job Costing security module. The reason for this change is to provide more security around employee compensation.

If you have manager access, you can view the Cost column for orders under any branch within the Single Order and Compare Orders tabs.

Figure 77: Job Costing

Likewise, without manager access, you can still view the Gross Margin and Profit/Loss information but you cannot see the specific cost data within either Job Costing tab.

Figure 78: Job Costing

Set the manager access by checking the Allow Manager Privileges flag for the Job Costing Security Module within Security Profile Setup. Only one branch needs manager privileges to access the Cost information for orders under any branch of service.

View the Job Costing topic for more information.

This section lists any fixes made to MoversSuite.

Agents

Market removed for Booking Agent

The Market setting is deemed unnecessary for the booker, so it has been removed from the Booking Agent section within the Agents tab. (8856)

SIT Information

Agent/Carrier contact title added to Stored At selector

When associating a contact to an Agent or Carrier type for the Stored At setting within SIT Information, you now have the title of the person along with their name to assist you in making a selection.

An issue that cannot be replicated is causing the phone numbers within the Shipper Contact Information section (Name, Address, Phone tab) to disappear and then reappear when a user clicks on that section, however, the user cannot edit them until they press Cancel (on the order) and then attempt to Edit again. (6409)

Import Quote into Invoice as it Appears in Quotes

Two new options are available that allow you to copy an entire quote or just the detail items of the quote directly into an invoice as they appear on the quote. Both options are available through a right-click on a Quote revenue import item within the New Complete Invoice screen.

Figure 79: New Complete Invoice

Selecting Import as Quoted populates the invoice items with all items on the quote, including groups, directly as it appears on the quote.

The example below illustrates a Quote group that we wish to import as is into an invoice.

Figure 80: Quote tab

Choosing the Import as Quoted option adds the quote group and items in the same order.

Refer to the Quotes item within the Source Description listing within the New Complete Invoice topic for more information.

Capture Reason, Date, and Person that Cancelled an Order

When you cancel an order, the application can be configured to also request a reason for the cancellation.

Figure 83: Cancel Order Reason

This feature is tied to a new flag set for the Order Status. Setting the Is Cancelled Status on any Order Status Setup record instructs MoversSuite to capture the reason through the new Cancel Order Reason dialog when the MSS Order Status is changed to the particular status value.

Figure 84: Order Status Setup (example)

The cancellation and reason are documented within Order History.

International Orders User Interface Update (Phase IV)

Estimated Cutoff Dates Removed

Two unnecessary estimates for cutoff dates have been removed. Inland Departure Cutoff and Port of Sailing Cutoff within the Shipping Information tab no longer have an Estimated column (Actual only). These dates have been removed as Task Dependency Dates and as Create Duplicate Order fields.

Figure 85: Shipping Dates section within the Shipping Information tab

(8831)

Origin Port added to Vessel/Voyage/Flight Information

The Origin Port is available through the Vessel/Voyage and Flight Information section on the Shipping Information tab.

Figure 86: Shipping Information

When you add a line (leg) to this section, the Origin Port defaults to the value set for the Origin Port set for the order (located above the Status Dates). If you add additional legs to the voyage or flight, then the application defaults the Origin Port to what is set for the Destination Port on the leg above the line.

You also receive a warning if you happen to enter the same Origin Port twice. This is to assist you in avoiding a circular route.

Figure 87: Duplicate voyage/flight warning

(8824)

Estimated and Actual Pickup and Delivery Dates

You can now specify estimated and actual dates for Pickup and Delivery locations within the Pickup/Delivery Information screen.

Figure 88: Pickup/Delivery Information

Customs Inspection Information

The ability to document customs inspection data is available through the Customs Inspection Information button on the Shipping Information tab.

Figure 89: Shipping Information

Pressing this button opens the Customs Inspection Information screen, providing you an area to document the inspection.

Figure 90: Customs Inspection Information

New setup areas are available allowing your company to customize the Inspection Location and Inspection Type. The International category within MoversSuite Administration now offers the Customs Inspection Location Setup to establish the values available through the Inspection Location setting and the Customs Inspection Location Setup to define Inspection Type values.

Both setup areas allow for you to map to codes supported by external systems. MoversSuite provides default values anticipated to support uploads and downloads from the UniGroup International system.

The inspection dates are also available as the following Task Dependency Dates:

Customs Inspection Start Estimated Date

Customs Inspection Start Actual Date

Customs Inspection End Estimated Date

Customs Inspection End Actual Date

The following new roles are available to Admin Profile Setup records:

International > Customs Inspection Location

International > Customs Inspection Type

(8731, 8744)

International Auto Register Flag

IMPORTANT: This feature is not yet fully implement and the auto upload of an international order is not yet available.

A new flag is available that is assignable to move types. The International Auto Register flag within Move Type Setup instructs MoversSuite, when checked, to automatically upload an UniGroup order when it is booked within the International Orders module.

Figure 91: Move Type Setup

When this feature is available, in a future release of MoversSuite, the application will automatically upload the order when the following occurs:

International Auto Register flag set on the Type of Move

Authority on the order is Van Line

Order is booked through the International Orders module

More on this feature in a future release of MoversSuite. (8828)

Link Personnel Records to Credentials of an External Application

Administrators can associate the login credentials of an employee to those required by an upload process to an external application. These credentials are needed to identify the employee performing the upload.

An Interface section is available within the Interface Mapping in Personnel Setup that allows the administrator to link the credentials to a particular interface, such as those needed to access the UniGroup Trafficking System.

Figure 92: Interface Mapping tab within Personnel Setup

Once an interface is established, press the Credentials button to add the User Name and Password for the disparate system.

Figure 93: Credentials entry prompt

Credentials are encrypted within MoversSuite.

Administrators can access the Password option within the credentials of an employee if they are assigned to the XML Interface Credentials Passwords role in Admin Profile Setup. This role lists under the Personnel category. If they are not assigned to this role, the can still enter a User Name through the credentials prompt.

Refer to the Interface Mapping section within Personnel Setup for more information.

(8825)

SIRVA QPD Integration

MoversConnect communicates directly with the SIRVA QPD system using a RESTful service that allows event monitoring to automatically update information in MoversSuite. Refer to the SIRVA QPD Integration topic for more information.

Additionally, two system phone types have been added to the list available within Shipper Phone Type Setup. Destination Other and Origin Other are available for assignment within MoversSuite, such as through the contact information found within the Name, Address, Phone tab. These two types are also included in the data utilized by the Pass Thru Connector and by the SIRVA QPD Integration.

This section lists any fixes made to MoversSuite for this release.

Administration

Timeout error on Data Warehouse Refresh

You no longer receive an error when performing a manual Data Warehouse Refresh. This issue appears to have only occur when MoversSuite Administration is opened through the Tools Menu. (8837)

Local Services

Remove Extra Stops on Voided or Cancelled Services

If a service is set to Void or Cancelled, you can now remove any stop associated to the service by deleting the record through the Extra Stops tab. Prior to this release, the application prevented you from removing stops associated to the voided or cancelled services. (8595)

Local Dispatch

Remove Crew from Services with Actuals

Crew can be removed from a service with actuals provided the specific assignment the person is assigned does not have any actuals. Prior to this release, if there were any actuals set for the service, whether they tie directly to the employee or not, the application prevents you from removing this employee. (8231)

Payment Management

Payment Application Timeout Issue

Using Payment Application no longer produces an error. An error indicating that “The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation…” has been addressed by updating the table structure of the RM20201 table to include an index, making searching more efficient on the Dynamics GP database. (8745)

MoversSuite Crew Mobile Application

Auto Synchronization of Crew Settings

Mobile API Setup now auto synchronizes with MoversConnect when one of the following flags change:

Activate MSCrew

Activate Crew Time

Crew Time for Crew Lead Only

This function can be performed manually through the Verify/Synchronize all mobile data with MoversConnect function.

When the Mobile API Setup data is synchronized with MoversConnect, either manually or automatically, then the date and time of the sync displays within the Last Synced with MoversConnect On field (also within the Mobile API Setup screen).

Figure 94: Mobile API Setup tab within MoversConnect Setup

(8803)

Revenue Entry

Third party invoice no longer duplicated

An issue was occurring when multiple reversals spread out over time were lumped together into a single third party invoice transaction. Now the application locates the correct transaction and creates new documents for any transaction that is not already assigned a Dynamics GP document number. (8552)

Log into MoversSuite via Windows Authentication

With this release is the ability to open MoversSuite or MoversSuite Administration without login by using the account information you use when logging into your Windows environment.

The first time you log into MoversSuite after upgrading to this release, the application captures your credentials and associates them to your Windows domain user. The next time you log into MoversSuite, the credentials are passed along to MoversSuite automatically without the need for you to enter your MoversSuite username and password.

Logging into MoversSuite Administration is under Windows Authentication as well.

This features works everywhere you reference your Windows domain account. For example, if you switch to a different computer but log into Windows with the same credentials, then you are automatically logged into MoversSuite or MoversSuite Administration.

Administrators can see which Domain User Name is associated to a Personnel Setup record through the User tab. They also have the option to Remove domain user association for any user through this setup. This option provides the ability to remove the Windows Domain User Name associated to the record. This is useful if a person needs to change their domain affiliation, i.e. change their user name.

There can be only one user record associated to a domain user. If you attempt to log into MoversSuite on an environment associated to a different domain user, you receive the following error: “The provided user is already mapped to a different Windows Domain User account. Please see your system administrator.”
