March 2021 - version 1.2.10

Release date for production: March 15th, 2021

Technical

This update corresponds with the Dooap package 1.2.10 for D365. Update of D365/AX2012 is not generally mandatory but some of the fixes or features require the Dynamics package to be installed.

Customers utilizing miscellaneous charges with PO matching will need to deploy the new Dooap 1.2.10 D365/AX2012 package. There is no backward compatibility due to the new feature: percentage based misc. charges.

Overview of Features

New Features

  • Automation for AP step
    • It is now possible to allow invoices containing no errors or warnings to automate the initial AP phase. In this case the invoice will be automatically sent to the next step in workflow. For matching PO invoices this enables touchless AP. Click here to learn more about the feature.
  • Dimension Based Approval (DBA)
    • Dimension Based Approval tracks invoice coding and forces the approval workflow only to approvers who have been assigned approval rights for the selected dimension values. Click here to learn more about the feature.
  • Remittance address
    • New field on the invoice header 'Remit to address'. Addresses are fetched from D365 real time. Click here to learn more. To enable this field, contact support@dooap.com 
  • New permission to edit only the invoice posting date
    • This permission will allow reviewers and approvers to edit the invoice posting date without being able to change any other invoice header data. Click here to read more.
  • New color to highlight completed workflow
    • Closed workflow branch is now indicated with a blue circle at the last step of the workflow. Green circle still indicates an active step. Closed approvals are not sent back to the reviewer, but all steps are reset if the invoice is sent back to AP.
  • Improved support for misc charges
    • Percentage-based misc charges are now working in Dooap. Click here to learn more.
    • When PO contains multiple lines, but only one line is selected for matching, Dooap brings only the misc charges that are allocated to that line, instead of all charges on the PO.
    • Misc charges that are not affecting invoice’s amount, but instead only create internal postings are now recognized by Dooap. Note! Dooap does not check the tax settings for misc charges: if the misc charges have settings that do not allow taxes, Dooap will not prevent those. Click here to learn more.
  • Invoice type logic improvements for PO invoices:
    • When a vendor has a PO invoice type default, this is the invoice type that should be chosen upon import of the invoice when PO is detected in the XML file.
    • If there is no default on vendor setting, or the default is non-PO, invoice type will be checked from company code default.
    • If the company code default is a nonPO invoice type, then the invoice will check the default from the Invoice types.
Other new features:
  • A comment is now mandatory when deleting an attachment (file(s) attached to an invoice)
  • Changing the coding via pasting values from excel or from previous invoices is now logged
  • Workflow can now be split into more than 8 branches
  • Machine Learning improvements: predictions are hidden when workflow is split
  • (Pilot) New Search improvements: creating a user filter preset
  • (Pilot) Technical: delta (only changed) vendor master data import every 5 minutes
