Version 2020 R18 Notices

This section lists important notices related to MoversSuite.

 

SIRVA sHub Changes May Affect QLAB Users

SIRVA sHub Replacement changes made at MoversSuite Version 2020 R17 can affect those working in QLAB. New connections now exist between MoversSuite and the SIRVA STS (API) system, which replaces SIRVA sHub, therefore your existing login may not have suitable permissions to register shipments, pull orders down, etc. from QLAB. So, please contact EWS Group support so that we can verify that your login credentials are linked to MoversConnect and that they have the correct permissions.

 

Multiple Email Addresses: Response Emails Returned on Credit Card Payments

Multiple Email Addresses changes made at MoversSuite Version 2020 R17 are causing issues with response emails returned for credit card payments. We also discovered that many users were sticking two or more email addresses in the same email field for an order record. These “extra” email addresses resulted in verification errors if the order was edited after upgrading to R17. These issues will be fixed in MoversSuite Version 2020 R19.

 

Admin History Logging Updates

Admin History and Logging at MoversSuite Version 2020 R14 are causing a draft record to be saved even after a new payment attempt is cancelled. Having these drafts exist are causing, “A new payment on this batch is incomplete” errors (#830) and are preventing people from finishing the apply process of a payment. This issue will be fixed in MoversSuite Version 2020 R19.
