What we shipped, in plain language.

The in-app help now covers Employee Relations, Employee Loans & Advances and Objects on Loan, and the GST receipt voucher and over-billing debit note articles are updated.

The order Time & Action calendar was a separate calendar beside Task Management. Each order’s TNA is now a task project and each milestone a task, generated from a task template marked for TNA — so milestones appear in My Tasks and can be assigned, commented on and have time booked against them. A milestone with no owner falls to the order’s merchandiser and is reported as a warning.

On the cutting QC screen, “Rejected Pcs” was saved as rework, and a bundle only partly reworked or rejected appeared on neither the Rework nor the Rejected tab. Rejected pieces now have their own figure, and both tabs list partial verdicts.

A lay slip now records waste once per lay, covering all its bits, and compares it with the waste the marker expects once every bit is weighed. Roll-wise recording remains available but is optional, and neither gates completing the slip.

A lay’s waste is broken down by waste type, maintained on a new Waste Types page with a rate per kg. Each line keeps the rate it was valued at; a type with no rate is left unvalued rather than valued at zero.

The made-to-order sales order list loads about four times faster on large tenants.

A new dashboard at CRM → Merchandising brings together the made-to-order sales orders: what is late, what is due, each order’s Time & Action milestones, buyer approvals, date revisions and — for users allowed to see it — margin. A figure that cannot be read shows “Not available”, never zero.

An order’s TNA is generated from a template chosen by buyer and style complexity and back-scheduled from the due date. Milestone status comes from the dates; a decided buyer approval completes its milestone. A revised delivery date or a cancellation needs a reason code.

On a foreign-currency customer ledger, the balance strip printed dollar amounts behind a rupee sign. Each figure is now converted at its own booked rate, the rupee closing balance is the sum of the open items, and the statement shows outstanding in two columns — INR and the ledger’s currency. A part-paid invoice now shows only its open portion as outstanding, not its full value.

The open items of a manual vendor payment are now a full grid, with filtering, sorting, grouping, totals and Excel export.

A Print action on the direct invoices grid opens a preview of the actual PDF, with Print, Download and Open in a tab. A debit line prints negative so the sheet adds up to its own total, a document that nets to a debit is titled Credit Note, tax is summarised by rate, and a draft prints with a DRAFT banner so it can go to an approver before posting.

The Projects screen can now sync a project’s tasks with its current template and reschedule them — the same action that was available only in the admin console. It is offered for a planned project with a template, and reports the tasks added, updated and removed.

Reversing a customer receipt gives its allocations back, so a reversed receipt reappeared on the Payment Allocation worklist at its full value, as if nothing had been applied. Reversed, cancelled and failed receipts are now excluded, and the Unallocated column shows the same figure the list is filtered on.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
