What we shipped, in plain language.

The shop-floor Complete button closed an operation however much was still open, so 60,000 of 70,000 showed as Completed. It now refuses, states the open quantity, and points to Final Confirmation for a deliberate short close.

A data upload matched a value such as a department name against every hierarchy, so a name that existed in two hierarchies matched twice and the row failed. A lookup now honours the field's own scope (for example, only the enterprise hierarchy for a department), and the upload template lists the same choices.

Opening an existing production order for editing crashed the form. It now opens normally.

Editing a purchase order opened with blank notes, terms and addresses because the form used the list record. It now loads the full order, and the expanded grid row shows Notes and Terms.

The Vendor and Customer Balance List Excel export now has Opening and Closing Dr / Cr columns, including the totals row, so the sign of a balance is no longer ambiguous.

• Saved column layouts per user, column chooser, resizing, and Excel and PDF export.
• Date columns filter by range (between, before, after) by day.
• The sales order filter loads quickly from the operations themselves.

A rework quantity can be keyed on confirmation. It is a record only: reworked pieces come back and are confirmed as good later, so they do not consume components, are not written off and are not received. Negative quantities are refused.

Five UAT scripts (setup, run and calculation, approval and payment, interim and supplementary runs, exit bonus and reports) and Help Centre articles for Statutory Bonus.

Production Confirmation now records what was produced in each sitting and adds it to the operation's totals. The operation stays In Progress until good plus scrapped reaches the order quantity, or the confirmation is marked Final to close it short.

• A partial confirmation posts nothing; the closing one posts the back-flush, receipt and scrap once, on the cumulative quantities.
• Two confirmations of the same operation at the same time both count.

On Windows the browser installer could hang after the download, so every start of the demo shell downloaded Chromium again and never launched.

• The shell now checks whether Chromium is actually installed rather than trusting the installer's exit.
• A first install finishes as soon as the browser is complete, with a 15 minute limit.

Every Help Centre category, article and search results page returned a server error after the help content formatting update. The pages now load the formatting they need and open normally.

Audit report, abstract, bank statement, cash acquittance, exceptions, unpaid, exit, provision and year-on-year reports, plus statutory Form C and Form D.

Statutory bonus is calculated from released regular payroll results on the wage types flagged as bonus wages, with arrears counted in their original month. The Act is a floor: the employee receives the higher of the scheme and the statutory amount.

• Bonus year per company with category rules, staff slabs, gift amounts and minimum wages; copy to a new year, close and reopen.
• Bonus groups resolved from the assignment, payroll area or employee type.
• Full, interim and supplementary runs: calculate, check (override, hold, disqualification, deduction), submit and approve (HR Manager, Management Auditor, MD).
• Approval pays through one bonus off-cycle run per payroll area, with TDS, GL posting and bank files of up to ₹49 lakh each; confirm paid, or reverse before the bank file.
• A month with no payroll result is reported as an exception, never counted as zero.

Final Settlement pulls the bonus due to a leaving employee, with an eligibility panel. Employees see their bonus under My Bonus in self-service, with a bilingual bonus slip.

Both AP notes are issued by us: the debit note reduces the payable and the credit note increases it. The credit note now posts Cr Trade Payables against the offset and input tax, appears as a credit in the vendor ledger, and is no longer offered as a credit to apply against invoices.

An unreachable SMTP host held the request for minutes while workflow emails were sent. The connection now times out after 10 seconds.

Payroll now floors one-time deductions at net pay. The unrecovered remainder is carried and recovered when the run is approved.

A versioned referral scheme with one case per referred hire, created when the hire is made. The qualifying-day counter reads attendance results and is recomputed, never incremented.

• Release and pay through payroll, accounts payable (agent GST per partner) or an off-cycle batch.
• Clawback when the referred employee separates; it reverses if the separation is withdrawn.
• Public kiosk for referrals, and company / plant scoping.

One-time payments are paid in a real off-cycle payroll run with marginal one-time TDS and a separate bank file.

Configure an SMS gateway and templates per tenant. With none configured a message is logged as skipped rather than raising an error.

UAT scripts and help articles covering the referral scheme, cases, release and payment.

• A price difference was filed as a quantity mismatch; each is now recorded as its own exception.
• Simulate failed on an invoice line with no GL account; it now reports a blocker.
• Approve and Reject worked at any status; they are now allowed only where valid and return a clear error otherwise.

A 35-step walkthrough with a generated training guide takes a presenter through capture, matching, approval and posting, proving each posting against the journal, Trade Payables and the vendor ledger.

The grid showed only the first 100 receipts and sorted and searched within that batch. It now pages, sorts, searches and filters columns on the server, and Excel export covers the whole result set.

Submit, Approve and Post used to act on the last saved version, so an edited but unsaved form was posted with the old values. The form is now saved first on Journal Entry, Customer Receipts, Direct Invoice, Vendor and Non-PO invoices, Debit/Credit Notes, GL Payment and Bank Transaction.

• Simulate on GL Payment and Bank Transaction saves a draft first, because the preview reads the saved record.
• Once a document is posted, Simulate reads Display.
• The Simulate dialogs carry Save / Submit / Approve / Post buttons, including Advance and Manual Payment.

The retired FI-AP reconciliation package and its empty tables are removed. Nothing visible changes; AP permissions are unchanged.

The voucher panel is removed from the receipt form and now lives under GST in the sidebar, with a register of issued vouchers and an issue dialog over on-account receipts.

• A return order goods issue needs a Released order and is recorded as a delivery with its own transport, gate-out and vendor acknowledgement or dispute. Partial shipments are supported.
• Optional per company: a fully shipped return settles itself, closing the order or raising the AP Debit Note as Draft, Approval or Auto-post. Failures are recorded and can be retried.
• Goods billing nets returned goods that were not on a posted invoice, so a vendor cannot bill goods sent back.
• e-Way Bill is refused without vehicle, transporter and distance.

• A consent question left blank is no longer saved; Record stays disabled until every question is answered.
• The Hostel Manager can now mark guardian consent as not applicable on a draft request, with a reason.
• Food cost per resident-day is entered on Hostel Charges; Hostel Setup shows it read-only.
• The employee master Hostel tab lists only pending employee group changes.

The Travel Management UAT scripts shared their codes with the Time Management scripts, so loading one replaced the other. Travel is now UAT-HR-086 to UAT-HR-090, the Time scripts are restored, and existing Travel test runs move to the new codes.

Cutting room bundle labels now print as 50 mm x 50 mm stickers, one label per page, with the Bundle No and a scannable QR code. The on-screen preview matches the printed label exactly.

Seven UAT scripts (UAT-HR-079 to UAT-HR-085, 64 test cases) cover hostel setup, admission, check-in, movement, visitors and incidents, charges, self-service and check-out. Twelve help articles explain each hostel screen.

A new Hostel group under Real Estate manages worker hostels. A hostel is set up on a Real Estate property of type Hostel; its rooms and beds come from the property's spaces.

• Admission - a hostel request with a voluntary declaration, rules acknowledgement, emergency contacts and guardian consent where required, approved in up to two levels.
• Check-in, beds and transfers - bed status (vacant, occupied, held, blocked) is worked out from the residents; bed and hostel transfers are recorded.
• Movement - out and in, overdue returns, native leave and the night strength count. Gate device punches are recorded as movement, never as attendance.
• Visitors, incidents and damage - damage is recovered only after the Hostel Manager approves it; suspension and eviction come from an Employee Relations order.
• Monthly charges - rent and food are calculated from the nights stayed and deducted in payroll; net pay is never driven negative and the balance is carried forward.
• Self-service - employees see their hostel on /ess/my-hostel; check-out joins the separation clearance. Ten hostel reports are included.

A manual payment could be made against a draft, blocked, cancelled or reversed vendor invoice. The payment is now refused, naming the invoice and its status. Only posted invoices can be paid.

• A requisition set to approved now records who approved it and when.
• A requisition line with quantity 0 is refused.

The demo bundle publish step was being skipped on merge builds, so new walkthroughs did not reach presenters. It now runs on every production build, uploads only when the content has changed, and uses the server's own storage settings.

A new guided walkthrough takes a presenter through the full purchase cycle in 25 steps: requisition, two purchase orders, two goods receipts, two vendor invoices built from the receipts, a part and a final payment, and the PO History trace.

Every step is checked against stock, GR/IR, input tax, Trade Payables, the bank and the vendor ledger.
