Default dimensions from item
When assigning default dimensions and attributes on the Company page, you can set default dimension rules based on the item. On the Item page, you can enter dimensions that default based on the rules you defined for the company.
Dimensions and attributes can default from the item for purchasing, sales, stock, and manufacturing documents on the line level for each item.
Improvements
Stock cost adjustment for released item that is no longer in stock
When a work order is closed for an item with FIFO or average cost valuation, any difference from the planned cost is balanced with an actual cost adjustment to increase or decrease the unit cost of the produced stock. When the current stock on hand is less than the produced quantity or is no longer in stock, the adjustment amount is recorded as a not absorbed cost and posted as a production variance on a journal entry.
Other updates
Purchasing and sales: Account determination control remains active when stock posting is off
Average cost justification does not include transactions for current date

Features

You can import work order operations time trackings. The time tracking transaction generates automatically to update the work orders.

Features
Required fields default to single record
When there is only one possible value for a required field, that value is automatically selected. This can be a result of user permissions or when there is only one active record, like only one supplier or site. For example, if user permissions limit access to a single site when creating new documents, that site is automatically selected.
Improvements
GraphQL queries: Filter syntaxes for date management and DateTime comparison
You can compare properties and use date operators.
