It's time for a new Market Package!

Market Package 53 features reconciliation reports that provide details on differences between your balance lists and control accounts, further Stock and Project improvements, and much more.

New reconciliation reports

For several years, a frequently arising question from our administrators, customers and supporters alike has been: "As of some date – typically the last day of an accounting year – why does the total on my customer/supplier balance list not equal the total balances on my customer/supplier group control accounts?"

There are really only two ways this can happen: If direct entries have been made to the control accounts, and/or if the control accounts have been changed over time (meaning that customer/supplier entries have been made to accounts that are no longer used as control accounts).

In practice, it has previously been rather difficult and cumbersome to figure out these differences.

Not so any more... Just in time for the accounting year closing season, we have created two new reports – one for customers, and one for suppliers – allowing you to quickly and easily spot any differences.

These reports show any differences, broken up into direct entries on control accounts and customer/supplier entries on non-control accounts, respectively – and each of these allow you to click on the amounts in question to produce an entry drilldown.
These reports can literally save you hours of tedious ‘lookup work’ – and are obviously particularly useful in connection with accounting year closing processes.
An additional twist on this: After seeing a couple of cases of users linking customer or supplier groups to profit and loss accounts, trying to do so will now issue a warning that one would ‘typically’ use a balance sheet account as a control account.

General improvements

The 'Find entries' search function now also shows each entry’s VAT code. This makes it easier and faster to see the VAT associated with each entry.

When deleting an account used as a supplier payment account, a proper error message is now displayed (previously, this resulted in a system error). Deleting a supplier payment account is not allowed since it is referenced by bank accounts.
When creating a new quotation, order or invoice, warnings are now issued if the customer is barred, and/or has reached or surpassed his/her credit maximum (see figure to the right).

Stock Management improvements

On product ledger cards, links to produce the underlying stock supplier invoice PDF are now available, where applicable.

The stock supplier list now has links to 'Entries on account' and 'Open entries' – similar to the Bookkeeping supplier list. This way, if you primarily work with suppliers from the Stock tab, you can use these features without switching to the Bookkeeping tab.

Project Management improvements

Barred cost types are now hidden by default, but can be shown using a new 'Show/hide barred cost types' function – similar to what’s recently been implemented for e.g. barred accounts and barred customers. This makes it easier to 'hide away' legacy cost types that cannot be deleted since they have already been used.
