What we shipped, in plain language.

Employees can request a loan or advance, which is approved through the levels its loan type requires, disbursed, and repaid through payroll against a repayment schedule. The schedule is the balance: payroll reads the instalment due, and the approved payroll run records it as repaid. A change to the loan regenerates the schedule from that period onward, and take-home pay is never driven negative. At exit, the final settlement recovers the outstanding balance.

Typing a date on the Bank Book fetched the whole account history several times before the date was complete. The query now runs once the date is typed; Refresh still runs immediately.

A direct customer invoice line can now state a quantity and rate (which derive the amount), an HSN/SAC code and the sales order it relates to. A line can also be entered on the debit side, for a discount or contra charge that reduces the invoice.

Reversing a journal on the Journal Entries screen now asks for a reversal date as well as a reason, and shows the reason a reversal is refused. Typing in the dialog no longer lags.

A new Layout control saves a grid’s column visibility, order and width per user, with save-as, a default layout and reset. It is available on the Journal Entries, Bank Book, Customer Ledger, Payments Received, Payment Register and Vendor Invoice lists.

A disciplinary case runs from the incident through HR review, a bilingual show-cause notice and its service, the reply or its expiry, a domestic enquiry with hearings and findings, the penalty proposal and its authorisation, to the order, an appeal and closure. No penalty can be proposed without a show-cause notice that was issued and served and a reply, a witnessed refusal or an expired deadline.

The case records what was ordered; the linked function carries it out — a payroll deduction, a suspension, a withheld increment, a demotion or a separation. An unauthorised-absence rule can raise cases, and the employee master gains a Disciplinary Record tab.

Complaints can be raised by name, by an outsider or anonymously, including suggestion-box batches, and are tracked through owner or committee, actions, resolution, feedback and closure against an SLA, with reminders and escalation. POSH complaints are visible to committee members only. Employees see their own notices and grievances in My Workspace.

Every company object handed to an employee — ID card, uniform, laptop, phone or SIM, tools, keys, PPE, vehicle — is recorded with its issue, acknowledgement, return, loss, damage, replacement or transfer. Issue sets propose the standard kit when an employee joins, and uniforms can be issued in batch. The register records who holds an object; it posts no journal and moves no stock, but updates the custodian of a fixed asset.

A loss or damage never deducts pay by itself. It raises a recovery proposal that the HR Manager approves (split over one or more pay periods), waives or rejects. At exit, the clearance lists outstanding objects per owner and the final settlement picks up the unrecovered value.

Where TDS was withheld when the invoice was posted, the payment advice printed “TDS Deducted 0.00” while the invoice table showed a short payment. The advice now takes that TDS from the invoices cleared, shows Gross = TDS + Net, adds a TDS column per invoice, and says on each line whether it was deducted at payment or on which invoice.

Payment runs, the payment register and detail, manual and advance payments and the due-invoices worklist rounded every amount to the rupee, so an operator could transfer a rounded figure from the bank. These screens now show two decimals. Reports and the dashboard keep whole rupees.

TDS was calculated to the paisa — a 1% deduction on 46,155 withheld 461.55 — leaving a net payable that no bank transfer matched and no challan accepts. TDS is now rounded to the nearest rupee (fifty paise up), as Section 288B requires, at invoice posting, in the payment proposal and on down payments alike. The base is not rounded.

Picking a PO line on a service entry sheet filled in the gross price, so a sheet against a discounted line accrued the expense before the discount and the difference was left standing in the service clearing account. The sheet now proposes the net price and shows the discount applied, for example “@ 3,384 after 20% off 4,230”.

Issuing a GST receipt voucher on a customer advance needs the tax-on-advances account configured, and the only way to do that was the admin console. A new page under Financial → Receivables → GST Advance Accounts lists every company — configured or not — and flags an incomplete setup, so the missing row is visible on exactly the tenant that needs it.

A new Lot Wise Summary tab on the Cutting Reports page lists cut pieces by lot, part, colour and size, sectioned into in-house, vendor and company-shift cutting. It filters by sales order, production order, lot and date, prints as the CUTTING - LOT WISE SUMMARY sheet and exports to CSV.

The automatic debit note for an over-billed purchase invoice claimed the taxable value only, leaving the GST on the excess with the vendor and the input tax credit standing on money not being paid. The note now carries the tax rate stated on the difference, or failing that on the invoice line it came from, and reverses the proportional input tax credit. An RCM invoice carries no tax on the note, as the vendor charged none.

A missing input-tax account is flagged on the Differences tab while the invoice can still be edited, rather than refusing the posting.

Opening a project from the Projects grid for editing showed its planned and actual dates blank, and saving lost them. The dates now load into the dialog as they are stored.
