|
| |

|
| |
8. For MS CRM 4.0 users, Emails sent from within QuoteWerks (using the built-in QuoteWerks SMTP email or by automating Outlook) are now logged as sent emails in MS CRM history.
|
| |
9. For MS CRM 4.0 users, on the newly redesigned Select Email Address window, there is now a "'Sold To' E-mail Addresses from MS CRM" email list. This will be a list of all email addresses associated with the MS CRM account or contact record that is linked to the Sold To fields in QuoteWerks. If linked to a MS CRM account record, all the email addresses associated with the account and all the email addresses associated with the contacts under this account will be displayed.
|
| |
10. For MS CRM 4.0 users, on the newly redesigned Select Email Address window, there is now a "'Ship To' E-mail Addresses from MS CRM" email list. This will be a list of all email addresses associated with the MS CRM account or contact record that is linked to the Ship To fields in QuoteWerks. If linked to a MS CRM account record, all the email addresses associated with the account and all the email addresses associated with the contacts under this account will be displayed.
|
| |
11. For MS CRM 4.0 users, on the newly redesigned Select Email Address window, there is now a "'Bill To' E-mail Addresses from MS CRM" email list.

|
| |
13. Re-designed Select Email Address window enables you to specify the TO, CC, and BCC email addresses all at once from the same screen without having to go back to the Send Email window and choose a different recipient type. Also, this window is now resizable.
|
| |
14. New and improved Maximizer 10.0 and 10.5 integration! The improved integration includes: a) Maximizer can now be searched to find Companies, Individuals, or Contacts to pull into the quote. Previously you could only retrieve the currently displayed Maximizer contact. b) QuoteWerks now creates/updates linked documents in Maximizer as embedded documents allowing for them to be synchronized using Maximizer's synchronization. c) The QuoteWerks DataLink feature now retrieves the information from the Maximizer record that the quote is linked to, rather than just the current record. This can be used with Maximizer enabling you to retrieve information like Terms and shipping method from the Maximizer Company, Individual, or Contact (whichever is linked to the quote) into the quote. d) When printing, QuoteWerks can retrieve Contact data from the Maximizer contact that is linked to the quote and include it in the printed output. Previously only data from the current Maximizer record could be used. e) Maximizer Contact data can be retrieved using the F2 Lookup macro of ~Max_Macro() to pull data from the Maximizer contact that is linked to the quote. Previously only data from the current Maximizer record could be used. With these changes, Maximizer versions earlier than 7.0 are no longer supported.
|

|
| |
19. In the layout designer when setting background colors, you can now save custom colors in the layout so they will be available to apply to other fields during your editing session, and then next time you edit the layout.
|
| |
20. Using the "Microsoft Text Driver (*.txt; *.csv)" ODBC text driver, you can now link to comma delimited text files as Product Data Sources. This is very useful when you receive product and pricing information from your vendors in a comma delimited text file format. With this new functionality, you can simply link to that text file instead of having to import the data into a database.
|
| |
21. On the Online Ordering window, the last selected Online Vendor is now memorized (per user), so the next time you open this window, it will be remembered.
|
| |
22. On the Layout Designer window, there is now a [Close] button on the toolbar right next to the [Save & Close] button. This button is generally closer to your mouse than the window's close "X" button in the upper right corner. While this change may seem trivial, if you've ever done a lot of layout designing, you'll put a lot less miles on your mouse with this new button.
|
|
| Version 4.0 Build 50 (released September 22, 2009) |
|
| |
23. Real-time Pricing and Availability is now available for IT distributor Dexxxon Digital Storage ( www.digitalstorage.com ).
|
| |
24. New and improved PDF generator no longer requires that a printer driver be installed. Requiring a printer driver be installed involved great complexity and many issues arised relating to security (users have to have OS level permissions to install/remove printers) and low level Operating System (OS) functionality such as functionality on 32-bit vs 64-bit Operating Systems, and even would have issues relating to how many processing cores a machine's CPU had. While PDF Generating Printer Drivers are the most prominent means of creating PDF files (because it is easy for the programmer, but problematic for the end user), we have chosen to rise above all this and create a solution that does not require a printer driver thereby leaving all these problems in the past.
|
| |
25. When choosing the option to embed fonts in the PDF file, the size of the PDF file is now smaller due to the fact that only the font characters that are used in the document are actually embedded in the PDF file. This also makes the document even more tamper-resistant since the only font characters that are embedded in the file are the characters that were used in the file.
|
| |
26. On the Misc tab of the Tools|My Preferences menu, there is now a new "Color and underline hyperlink URLs when creating PDF file" option. The PDF generator automatically detects hyperlink link strings so that when viewed in Adobe Acrobat you can click on those links to display the link in your web browser. Until now, those links did not look any different than the rest of the text. Now, with this new option, you can choose to have these automatic hyperlinks display as blue underlined links.
|
| |
27. When PDF files are created, you now have the option to flag them as Read-Only. You can set this option under the Misc tab of the Tools|My Preferences menu. Additionally, when setting the PDF file as Read-Only, you also have the option to prevent the recipient from copying text out of the PDF file. When receiving quotes/estimates, many customers/leads often copy out part numbers and descriptions, and then paste this copied information into a web search engine in an effort to search for better pricing. Without the ability to copy and paste so easily, the recipient would have to spend a lot of time having to re-type all this information which would be a deterrent against them price shopping.
|
| |
28. When printing a document from the preview window, if the document being printed included PDF formatted Spec Sheets, or PDF formatted Literature Files, a Print PDF file window will now appear that enables you to simply choose which PDF files you want to print, and then it will print them using Adobe Acrobat to the printer that you just printed to from the Preview window.
|
| |
29. Added Misc Access Rights CannotModifyFieldValue:DH_&SoldToFields, CannotModifyFieldValue:DH_&ShipToFields, and CannotModifyFieldValue:DH_&BillToFields. These completely revoke the user's ability to modify any of the SoldTo/ShipTo/BillTo fields located on the Sold to/Ship to tab of the WorkBook. The user cannot type directly into the fields, nor can they use the Retrieve current contact, Search for Contact, Clear fields, or Copy from buttons to affect the data in the fields. Note, the SoldToPriceProfile field is not included in CannotModifyFieldValue:DH_&SoldToFields. There is a separate CannotModifyFieldValue:DH_SoldToPriceProfile right for this field.
|
| |
30. Added Misc Access Rights CannotManuallyModifyFieldValue:DH_&SoldToFields, CannotManuallyModifyFieldValue:DH_&ShipToFields, and CannotManuallyModifyFieldValue:DH_&BillToFields. These revoke the user's ability to manually type into any of the SoldTo/ShipTo/BillTo fields on the Sold to/Ship to tab of the WorkBook. They can still retrieve contacts from a CRM using the Retrieve current contact or Search for Contact buttons, as well clear the fields using Clear fields button. They will also still be able to copy the fields from either the Ship to or Bill to sections using the Copy from button. Note, the SoldToPriceProfile field is not included in CannotManuallyModifyFieldValue:DH_&SoldToFields. There is a separate CannotManuallyModifyFieldValue:DH_SoldToPriceProfile right for this field.
|
| |
31. Added Misc Access Rights CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_&SoldToFields, CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_&ShipToFields, and CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_&BillToFields. These rights behave just like the CannotManuallyModifyFieldValue:DH_&SoldToFields rights, but they only apply once a CRM contact has been retrieved (versus manually typed in) into the quote. Note, the SoldToPriceProfile field is not included in CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_&SoldToFields. There is a separate CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_SoldToPriceProfile right for this field.
|
| |
32. Added Misc Access Rights CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_SoldToXX, CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_ShipToXX, and CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_BillToXX. These revoke the user's ability to modify a specific SoldTo/ShipTo/BillTo field on the Sold to/Ship to tab, where XX is the field name, when the contact was retrieved from a CRM. If the contact was not retrieved from the contact manager, the user still has the ability to manually type into the field and they still have the ability to clear the field using the Clear fields button, but if the data is retrieved from a contact manager, the returned data will not be modifiable. The complete list of Access Rights are: CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_SoldToCompany CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_SoldToContact CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_SoldToTitle CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_SoldToAddress1 CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_SoldToAddress2 CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_SoldToAddress3 CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_SoldToCity CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_SoldToState CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_SoldToPostalCode CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_SoldToCountry CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_SoldToPhone CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_SoldToPhoneExt CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_SoldToFax CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_SoldToFaxExt CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_SoldToEmail CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_ShipToCompany CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_ShipToContact CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_ShipToTitle CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_ShipToAddress1 CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_ShipToAddress2 CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_ShipToAddress3 CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_ShipToCity CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_ShipToState CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_ShipToPostalCode CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_ShipToCountry CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_ShipToPhone CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_ShipToPhoneExt CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_ShipToFax CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_ShipToFaxExt CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_ShipToEmail CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_BillToCompany CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_BillToContact CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_BillToTitle CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_BillToAddress1 CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_BillToAddress2 CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_BillToAddress3 CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_BillToCity CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_BillToState CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_BillToPostalCode CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_BillToCountry CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_BillToPhone CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_BillToPhoneExt CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_BillToFax CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_BillToFaxExt CannotManuallyModifyCRMRetrievedFieldValue:DH_BillToEmail

It is located in the "C:\Program Files\Common Files\QuoteWerks" folder and is accessible directly, or through the QuoteWerks Medic Utility under the Utilities|QuoteWerks ACT! Medic Utility menu. This is very useful in debugging complicated ACT! integration issues, including detecting and repairing ACT! framework registration issues due to failed ACT! updates, and blocked (by anti-virus or firewall) tcp ports which interfere with .NET component communication.

On this "Select Default Literature..." window, you can also specify if this default literature will be applied by default when converting, for example, a Quote to an Order using the "Apply this literature to documents that are converted to an Order/Invoice" checkbox. When specify which literature documents to use as a default, you can specify individual literature documents, or you can specify to select all the literature contained within a particular literature folder. When adding new literature later, any files added into the specified literature folder will automatically be included in the default literature, whereas if you choose specific literature documents, the newly added literature would need to be specifically added to the default literature selections.
|
| |
41. On the Literature tab of the Print window, there is now a [Apply default literature for Quote/Order/Invoice] button. This can be used to apply the default literature selections by adding them to the existing literature selections. If you wish you replace the existing literature selections, click on the [Deselect All] button before applying the default literature.
|
| |
42. When converting, for example, a Quote to an Order, on the Convert Document window, there is now an option to "Apply default literature for new Order/Invoice" which will add the default Order/Invoice literature to the existing selections currently associated with the Quote.
|
| |

|
| |
44. Added Misc Access Right CannotModifyLiteratureSelections. When this right is set, the user cannot change literature selections on the Literature tab of the File|Print window, specifically they cannot manually select literature, or use the [Select All] or De-Select All] buttons, or use the [Apply Default literature] button. Additionally, they cannot change the selection for "Apply default literature for new Order/Invoice" on the Convert Document window.
|
| |
45. For Canadian users, added support for a document level GST Tax rate. This is important now that the Canadian government has started changing the GST tax rate. Before installing this update we recommend that you do a Utilities|Merge Remote Documents, then install the update, then using the medic utility, you will need to run a SQL command to update all documents prior to the date that you changed the GST Tax Rate in QuoteWerks with the older GST Tax Rate. For MS Access backend database the SQL command would look similar to: "UPDATE DocumentHeaders SET GSTTaxRate=0.05 WHERE LastModified < #01/01/2008#", and for a MSSQL backend the SQL command would like similiar to "UPDATE DocumentHeaders SET GSTTaxRate=0.05 WHERE LastModified < '01/01/2008'". After you run the SQL update query, run the Utilities|Rebuild CM Transport files to update all the DTF files with the new field and data.
|
| |
46. For Canadian users, the GSTTaxRate field is now available as a DataLink field.
|
| |
47. Innovative Context-Sensitive Tutorial Video links are now displayed on various QuoteWerks windows as a hyperlink labeled "Watch Tutorial Video". These links make it easy to play the appropriate tutorial video based on the window you currently have open, without having to manually go to the website, determine if a video on this topic exists, and then manually play it. The Context-Sensitive Tutorial Video links obtain their content from the Tutorial Videos page on the QuoteWerks website ( http://www.quotewerks.com/tutorial.asp ). The "Watch Tutorial Video" hyperlink is now available on the Tools|Export To QuickBooks window, the QuickBooks Interactive Link Setup window, Tools|Export To Peachtree window, the Peachtree Interactive Link Setup window, the Realtime tab of the Tools|Options menu, the Products|Setup Products Data Sources menu, the Products|Import Wizard menu, and then Utilities|Sync menu.
|
| |
48. There is now a new format option "Bottom Align" for Report Footers in a print layouts and report layouts. This is used to force the section down to the bottom of the page (after the last detail section) even if the detail ends in the middle of the page.
|
| |
49. On the Installation tab of the Tools|Options menu, added the options "Allocate inventory for Orders" and "Allocate inventory for Invoices". This are used to set the default values for their counterparts on the Convert Document window.
|
| |
50. Added Misc Access Right CannotModifyInventoryAllocation which prevents the user from changing the "Allocate inventory for Orders/Invoices" checkbox on the Convert Document window. Restricting the user with this right, and setting the default for this option effectively sets this value, and then prevents the user from changing it.
|
| |
51. Added support for default values for "GST Tax Exempt" and "No PST on Shipping" on the Regional tab of the Tools|Options menu.
|
| |
52. Added Select All and Deselect All buttons on the Literature tab of the Print window.

|
| |
60. For Emails sent using the Built-in SMTP email, the pdf or rtf file for the quote/order/invoice that is attached in the email will now be saved in the QuoteWerks\History\Email folder. Previously this only happened if you used GoldMine as your CRM or if you sent emails through Outlook from within QuoteWerks. The file name will have a postfix added to it to ensure unique file names. Only the quote document file itself is saved here. Copies of literature or spec sheet documents will not be saved here.
|
| |
61. If a document is already open and you try to open it again from the Most Recently Used (MRU) on the File menu, you will hear a beep, and it will now be brought to focus. Previously you would receive a message asking you to find it in the Window list.

|
| |
64. Online Ordering module can place online orders with D & H (USA and Canada) from within QuoteWerks (requires Real-time and Online Ordering modules). Order items from a single order, or combine items from multiple QuoteWerks orders into a single D & H order. This will save you the time and hassle of calling your D & H sales rep and reading each part number, quantity, and price to him/her. Another benefit is that the order date and D & H sales order number will automatically be stored with your QuoteWerks order for reference. When placing D & H online orders electronically through QuoteWerks, there is an option that will let you place the order on hold. This will afford you an opportunity to review the order with your distributor rep and negotiate pricing without the time consuming process of reading to your sales rep all the part numbers, quantities, ship to location, etc. No more calling your distributor sales rep only to reach voice mail (understandable - sales reps can't be on the phone with more than one customer at a time) and then have to remember try again later in the day to place the order - or wait for a call back! This is truly the best of both worlds - automation with sales rep service!
|
| |

Order items from a single order, or combine items from multiple QuoteWerks orders into a single Ingram Micro order. This will save you the time and hassle of calling your Ingram Micro sales rep and reading each part number, quantity, and price to him/her. Another benefit is that the order date and Ingram Micro sales order number will automatically be stored with your QuoteWerks order for reference. When placing Ingram Micro online orders electronically through QuoteWerks, there is an option that will let you place the order on hold. This will afford you an opportunity to review the order with your distributor rep and negotiate pricing without the time consuming process of reading to your sales rep all the part numbers, quantities, ship to location, etc. No more calling your distributor sales rep only to reach voice mail (understandable - sales reps can't be on the phone with more than one customer at a time) and then have to remember try again later in the day to place the order - or wait for a call back! This is truly the best of both worlds - automation with sales rep service! Supports government and educational pricing.

|
| |
112. When inserting a file path and name into a custom Menu Item command, and the QuoteWerks installation path is contained within the file path, you will be asked if you want to use the &SYS_InstallPath macro.

|
| |
118. QuickBooks 2009 Canada is now supported!
|

119. Added support for Real-time Product Content through OpenICEcat. OpenICEcat is a worldwide open catalogue developed in co-operation with over 150 sponsoring manufacturers for the purposes of providing real-time product content such as detailed product descriptions, pictures, and spec sheets. There is no charge for the OpenICEcat service. The QuoteWerks Real-time module is required to access this information. You can right click on a product and choose the Real-time Content menu to display real-time detailed product descriptions, pictures, and spec sheets for the product. For products in native product databases, you have the option to update the product with this real-time content, and by doing so, the pictures and/or spec sheet files will be downloaded and saved into your QuoteWerks installation for future use. On the Document items tab, you can select the Tools|Real-time Product Content menu to update the descriptions of any selected items already in the quote with Real-time Content.
|
| |
120. When attempting to open a document that is already in use by another user, you will now have the option to open the document in Read-Only mode. In a situation where a colleague has the document open, has locked their workstation, and is out of the office, other users can still open it (subject to normal rights restrictions) so they can view it. When a customer calls in and asks for information about their quote, other users need to be able to see it instead of being locked out from it. A document opened in Real-Only mode will have “(Read-Only)" displayed in the title bar of the document.
|
| |
121. Added Misc Access right "CannotModifyFieldValue:DH_InternalNotes" and "CannotModifyFieldValue:DH_PurchasingNotes". Useful for restricting a user from modifying those fields on the Notes tab of the WorkBook. These fields could then be updated with information about the quote that other users can see, but not change.
|
| |
122. Added Misc Access rights "CannotModifyFieldValue:DI_Description" and "CannotModifyFieldValue:DI_ManufacturerPartNumber". When these rights are set, the user cannot modify these fields on the Document Items tab. This is useful in restricting a user from modifying these values to be anything other than what is defined in the product database. Preventing a user from modifying the Manufacturer Part Number is especially useful in that if it is changed, it no longer matches the entry in the database and/or accounting software. When these rights are set, these columns on the DocumentItems tab will have a grey (disabled) background, and when the user clicks in the cell, the status bar will display "You do not have rights to modify this field. This field is read-only".
|
| |
123. The list of Misc Access Rights has been re-ordered in order of categorical groupings and can now be sorted alphabetically.
|
| |
124. Added the default option "Don't update Order with real-time ordered price." to the General tab of the Tech Data Online Ordering Options window. Also added the corresponding option "After order submitted, don't update Order with real-time ordered price." to the Tech Data online ordering window, so that this can be changed per order. This option is useful when you receive special discount pricing from Tech Data that Tech Data does not make available through real-time pricing & availability or ordering. When this option is set, the special pricing in the QuoteWerks order that you have manually entered will not be overwritten with the generic pricing that is returned by real-time pricing & availability in the order.
|
| |
125. Added Misc Access right "CannotCreateContactRecord". This can be used to prevent a user from creating or cloning contacts in the QuoteWerks contact database.
|
| |
126. Added Misc Access right "CannotUseRealtimeLicense". Useful for preventing users from using real-time features and thereby reserving a Real-time module license.
|
| |
127. Added "Use comma (not space) to delineate part number from quantity in Quick Lookup Bar." option to the Misc tab of the Tools|My Preferences menu. This is useful when your part numbers contain spaces.
|
| |
128. When searching for contacts under the Contacts|Lookup menu, the ability to sort columns in the results grid by clicking on the column header is now also supported for ACT!, MS CRM, Outlook, Peachtree, QuickBooks, SalesLogix, and salesforce.com users.

|
| |
130. Added View/Modify and Refresh buttons for the Picture File field on the Picture tab of the Edit Product window.
|
| |
131. For API users, added new Database backend object. With this developers can read from and write to any QuoteWerks database, except the product databases. This is useful for performing database related activities like importing and exporting records, running queries to find particular data, etc. For security purposes a Developer Access Key system was implemented so that the QuoteWerks administrator will have control over what applications will have this access to the QuoteWerks databases. This security is administered under the Security tab of the Tools|Options menu.
|
| |
132. For API users, added new DocFunctions.DocumentSave method. This method can be used to save a new document, or save changes to an existing document. It does not however perform any CRM related integrations.
|
| |
133. For API users, added the Installation.UniqueID property. This is the counterpart to the Application.GetMacro method. The Application.GetMacro("&SYS_InstallUniqueID") will return a unique ID that indentifies this QuoteWerks installation. Then, with this, the developer loop through all the installations (using the backend dll object) to find the installation with the matching unique id.
|
| |
134. For API users, added new Application.DoAction method. This .DoAction method enables developers to initiate menu selections. Currently supported are "CallMenuFileSave", and "CallMenuToolsOptions".
|
| |
135. Added macro &SYS_InstallUniqueID.
|
| |
136. Updated QuoteWerks on October 16th, 2008 to support another new real-time URL that Ingram Micro has implemented for USA and Canada.
|
| |

|
| |
146. When running management reports, you can now insert the fields Application->ReportFileName, Application->ReportName, and Application->ReportDescription into layouts used in reports. This is useful when a report layout is used with multiple reports. For example you might have several reports like Today's Quotes, This Week's Quotes, and Last Month's Quotes. The layout format for all of them will most likely be the same. If you wanted the layout to print the text "Last Month's Quotes" you would have to manually insert a label with that text and would have to create a different layout for each report just to have that unique label. By inserting the new Application->ReportName field into the same layout shared by these reports, whichever report is printed will display the respective report name like "Last Month's Quotes".
|
| |
147. Added new &APP_CompanyMessage1 and &APP_CompanyMessage2 macros. The values for these macros can be set on the Company tab of the Tools|Options menu. These are useful for storing, for example, a daily special and/or the monthly special. What is so powerful about this feature is that these macros can be inserted into cover pages, print layouts, email signatures, etc. When you change the Company Message value, it automatically changes everywhere it is used, so you do not have to manually update your cover pages, print layouts, and email signatures with the daily special - EVERYDAY! Alternatively, you could store something like "Serving the Chicago land area for over 15 years." and when you’ve reached year 16, you will just need to make the change in one place.
|
| |
148. Macros are now supported in Document Names for templates. For example, if you save a document as a template and give the template a name like "Standard System - &DH_SoldToCompany &SYS_TodaysDate", then when you use the template by selecting this template from the File|New menu, and then save the resulting document, those macro values will be replaced with the actual values.
|
| |
149. Added support to increase the maximum number of open documents allowed at the same time. The default maximum number is 5. Editing the SITE.INI file and adding the INI key MaxNumOpenDocs under the [System] section you can set this maximum number to a value between 1 and 10. We recommend that you use this setting with caution as the use of this setting may cause you to run into memory issues depending upon your machine and usage (size of each document). If you run into issues, we recommend you reduce the MaxNumOpenDocs .
|
| |
150. On the Utilities|User Maintenance window, pressing the DEL key will now initiate the delete for Users or Groups.
|
|
| Version 4.0 Build 39 (released August 25, 2008) |
|
| |
151. Custom Menus can now be created under all of the root menus of the Quote Workbook. So custom menus can be created under the File/Edit/View, etc root menus. These custom menu items can be used to launch external programs, open documents, or open a website URL. Macro field can be included in the command line used to launch these external programs effectively enabling you to pass information about the current line item such as &DI_ManufacturerPartNumber to the external application when the custom menu item is clicked on. You can also specify whether or not to start the application in normal window or maximized window size and can choose to run this command only once, or once per each line item that is currently selected. This new Menu Customization functionality is available under the Tools|Customize Menus menu. It can also be accessed from the User Preferences window and also by right clicking on a User in the User Maintenance window and selecting Customize Menus. Both users and administrators can create menu items and then specifically choose which users are allowed to have access to that menu item. This enables users to create their own menu items and to share those menu items with other users. Once a menu item has been created and made available to a user, the User can choose to include this menu item in their menus and choose the location of this menu item within the assigned root menu. Misc Access right of "CannotCreateMenuItems" is available to prevent specific users from being able to create menu items. The Misc Access right "CannotModifyMenus" can be assigned to specific users to prevent them from being able to customize their menus at all.
|
| |
152. Custom Menus can now be created for the Product Lookup Context Menu. This enables you to right click on a product in the Product Lookup window and launch an external application or open a website based on this item. Macro fields &PL_VendorPartNumber, &PL_ManufacturerPartNumber, &PL_UnitCost, &PL_&SelectedPDS, &PL_RecID, &PL_CustomText01, &PL_CustomText02, &PL_CustomText03, &PL_CustomText04, &PL_CustomText05, &PL_CustomText06, &PL_CustomText07, &PL_CustomText08, &PL_CustomText09, &PL_CustomText10, &PL_CustomText11, &PL_CustomText12, &PL_CustomText13, and &PL_CustomText14 are specifically supported for this context menu. This enables an external application to be launched with the selected part number being passed to the application as a command line parameter so that the 3rd party app could perform an action based on that part number. You can also use this functionality to view product details on a website by passing the product part number as a macro in the url. Menu items created for this Product Lookup Context Menu will be displayed when any product data source product is right clicked on (subject to view rights assigned when the Menu Item is defined). Menu Items can also be created that are specific to individual product data sources. So for example a custom Menu Item will only be displayed when you right click on a product. For example, if you right click on a product in the Tech Data Product Data Source it could run a command like "http://www.techdata.com/tools/ProductDetail/ProductDetail.aspx?P=&PL_VendorPartNumber". This would open the Tech Data website and display the Specifications and Details for the product that you have selected in QuoteWerks. Another example would be the web URL of "http://www.google.com/products?q=&PL_ManufacturerPartNumber&price1=&price2=&PL_UnitCost&lnk=prsugg". This would perform a froogle search that will search the web to see if the selected item can be purchased for a cost lower than what you have in the database!

166. When the API method FindAndCopyProductsIntoMLIBuffer was called and external product data sources like QuickBooks, Peachtree where not running, a message box would be displayed to that effect. This would interrupt the program execution of the external API application. Now, no message boxes are displayed if there is a problem with QuickBooks or Peachtree not running; essentially normal usage. However, if there is a configuration or setup issue, message boxes may still be displayed. In the case where QuickBooks or Peachtree is not running the error of -40 will be returned.
|
| |
167. The API method FindAndCopyProductsIntoMLIBuffer will now return error -11 if the Operator being passed is not supported by the product data source. For example, QuickBooks, Peachtree, and salesforce.com product data sources only support the "Equal to" operator.
|
| |

206. Added command line option "/dontstartaddons" command line option. This option is useful when you are automating QuoteWerks to for example run a product import through the command line, and a 3rd party addon is loading and stopping the process because it is asking for you to supply login credentials. This command line option requires the /exit command line option, so when the process has finished, QuoteWerks will shutdown. Requiring QuoteWerks to shutdown after it has performed the automated action, when the /dontstartaddons command is used, will prevent the situation where QuoteWerks is running and the QuoteWerks user is logged in and using QuoteWerks, but their addon is not running.
|
| |
207. The Product Import Wizard can now auto-detect the "|" (pipe character) as a field delimiter.
|
| |
208. You can now export the list of users to the Windows Clipboard from the Utilities|User Maintenance menu.
|
| |
209. On the Create GoldMine forecasted sale window, Create GoldMine call window, and Create GoldMine Completed sale window, the GoldMine activity codes are now displayed in a drop down combo (so you do not have to manually re-create this list in a QuoteWerks F2 Lookup list)
|
| |
210. On the Create GoldMine Completed sale window, the GoldMine Result codes are now displayed in a drop down combo (so you do not have to manually re-create this list in a QuoteWerks F2 Lookup list)
|
| |
211. Added SoldToCompany column to the Online Orders window. Useful as a reference when deciding which items to place on the Tech Data order.
|
| |
212. On the Online Orders window you can now re-arrange the columns. The re-arrangements are not saved.
|
| |
213. When selecting the picture file for a product on the Edit Product window, if sub folders have been created under the QuoteWerks\Images folder and an image file from one of those subfolders is selected, only the relative path will be stored like "subfolder\speaker.jpg". This is particularly useful when product databases are used in different installations that have different paths.
|
| |
214. When selecting the Spec Sheet file for a product on the Edit Product window, if sub folders have been created under the QuoteWerks\SPECS folder and a spec sheet file from one of those subfolders is selected, only the relative path will be stored like "subfolder\specs.rtf". This is particularly useful when product databases are used in different installations that have different paths.
|
| |
215. After selecting a file for the Product Import wizard, the next time during that QuoteWerks session you select an import file, it will default to the last folder that an import file was selected from.
|
| |
216. After selecting a file for the Paste Special, the next time during that QuoteWerks session you select a file for the Paste Special, the default folder will be the last folder you selected the last file from.

|
| |
217. MS Dynamics CRM 4.0 is now supported!
|
| |
218. For MS CRM users that have changed their statuscode or opportunityratingcode values to anything other than the default there are now INI settings in the site.ini that can be set to accommodate these non-default codes. Under the [Contact Managers] section of the site.ini file the following keys can be set: MSCRMOppStatusCodeOpen, MSCRMOppStatusCodeWon, MSCRMOppStatusCodeCanceled, MSCRMOppStatusCodeOutSold, MSCRMOppRatingCodeHot, MSCRMOppRatingCodeWarm, and MSCRMOppRatingCodeCold.
|
| |
219. The QuoteWerks contact lookup search window has been redesigned. You can now perform searches by company name, last name, phone number, or e-mail address. You can run "Equal to", "Not Equal to", "Begins with", "Ends with", "Contains", and "Does not Contain" searches. The matching results will automatically populate as you type. Columns can be re-ordered, resized, and sorted (by clicking on column header). Clicking the column header again will reverse sort the column. Column orders, sizes, and last sort column are remembered per each user. |
| |
220. Added fields AccountRep, LeadSource1, LeadSource2, CustomText01, CustomText02, CustomText03, CustomText04, CustomText05, CustomText06, CustomText07, CustomText08, CustomText09, CustomNumber01, CustomNumber02, CustomDate01, CustomDate02 fields to the QuoteWerks contact database. Also added DataLink support for all these fields.
|
| |
221. All the labels on the QuoteWerks Edit Contact window can now be customized. Any label customizations here will also be reflected as column headings when viewing these columns in the QuoteWerks contact lookup window.
|
| |
222. F2Lookup support has been added for the fields AccountRep, LeadSource1, LeadSource2, Terms, and TaxRate.
|
| |
223. All the QuoteWerks contact database fields are available as columns on the QuoteWerks Contact Lookup window. You can re-arrange and resize these columns. The settings will be remembered for each user.
|
| |
224. On the Sold To/Ship To tab, added "Copy" buttons to the Sold To, Ship To, and Bill To fields. These are very useful if you have manually typed the customer information into any one of the Sold To, Ship To, or Bill To fields and want to copy that information into any other area.
|
| |
225. In a multiple monitor environment, status windows are now displayed on the same monitor as the main QuoteWerks window instead of always displaying on the primary monitor.
|
| |
226. On the Price Comparison window (Tools|Compare Prices between Vendors menu), after retrieving real-time information, the quantity in stock is now displayed next to the price for both your preferred warehouse availability and the total availability.
|
| |
227. Added [Select All] and [Deselect All] buttons to the Price Comparison window (Tools|Compare Prices between Vendors menu).
|
| |
228. Re-designed the File|Insert Document window to add the ability to search by DocName, DocNo, and SoldToCompany. You can run "Equal to", "Not Equal to", "Begins with", "Ends with", "Contains", and "Does not Contain" searches. SalesRep and DocDate columns will be displayed in addition to the search fields. Columns can be re-ordered, resized, and sorted (by clicking on column header). Clicking the column header again will reverse sort the column. Column orders, sizes, and last sort column are remembered per each user.
|
|
| Version 4.0 Build 33 (released March 3, 2008) |
|
| |
229. New Online Ordering module (requires real-time module) can place online orders with Tech Data (USA) from within QuoteWerks. Order items from a single order, or combine items from multiple QuoteWerks orders into a single Tech Data order. This will save you the time and hassle of calling your Tech Data sales rep and reading each part number, quantity, and price to him/her. Another benefit is that the order date and Tech Data sales order number will automatically be stored with your QuoteWerks order for reference. When placing Tech Data online orders electronically through QuoteWerks, there is an option that will let you flag the order for manual review and release by a sales rep. This will afford you an opportunity to review the order with your distributor rep and negotiate pricing without the time consuming process of reading to your sales rep all the part numbers, quantities, ship to location, etc. You can also place a note in the order to ask the sales rep to call you to confirm pricing. No more calling your distributor sales rep only to reach voice mail (understandable - sales reps can't be on the phone with more than one customer at a time) and then have to remember try again later in the day to place the order - or wait for a call back! This is truly the best of both worlds - automation with sales rep service! Supports government and educational pricing, Tech Data MyOrderTracker, and assists Tech Data MyOpportunityTracker by optionally supplying end user details with the order.
|
| |
230. QuickBooks 2008 (USA only) is now supported!

| |
236. When closing certain windows like the main QuoteWerks window, the Product Lookup window, the Open Document window, the View Log window, Configuration Setup, and Edit Item window the position and size of the window is saved for the next time that you open that window. In situations where a user runs QuoteWerks from more than one machine like if QuoteWerks is run from a network workstation (that has dual monitors) and then also is run through terminal services (which does not have dual monitors), when QuoteWerks is run through Terminal Services, if one of those windows was last open on the second monitor, the window would display outside of your viewable area (so you could not see it). Now all window memorized position data is stored per user per machine name which supports differing monitor configurations.
|
| |
237. Added CustomNumber03, CustomNumber04, and CustomNumber05 fields to the Edit Product window. These fields also display in the Product Lookup and Document Items grids.
|
| |
238. Added CustomText11, CustomText12, CustomText13, and CustomText14 fields to the Edit Product window. These fields also display in the Product Lookup and Document Items grids.
|
| |
239. On the Personal tab of the Tools|My Preferences menu, added fields Address1, Address2, Address3, City, State, PostalCode, Country, PhoneExt and FaxExt. This is useful for Terminal Server or Citrix type of environments where sales reps from various geographical locations connect to the server and all need to display their own address information on print layouts rather than the central company address information. These fields are available in the layout designer under the 'Application' table as LoggedInUserAddress1, LoggedInUserAddress2, LoggedInUserAddress3, LoggedInUserCity, LoggedInUserState, LoggedInUserPostalCode, LoggedInUserCountry, &LoggedInUserAddress, &LoggedInUserFullAddress, LoggedInUserPhoneExt and LoggedInUserFaxExt. Additionally, these same fields are available as cover page/literature document macros as &APP_LoggedInUserAddress1, &APP_LoggedInUserAddress2, &APP_LoggedInUserAddress3, &APP_LoggedInUserCity, &APP_LoggedInUserState, &APP_LoggedInUserPostalCode, &APP_LoggedInUserCountry, &APP_&LoggedInUserAddress, &APP_&LoggedInUserFullAddress, &APP_LoggedInUserPhoneExt, and &APP_LoggedInUserFaxExt.

Additionally, these same fields are available as cover page/literature document macros as &DH_&SalesRepAddress1, &DH_&SalesRepAddress2, &DH_&SalesRepAddress3, &DH_&SalesRepCity, &DH_&SalesRepState, &DH_&SalesRepPostalCode, &DH_&SalesRepCountry, &DH_&SalesRepAddress, &DH_&SalesRepFullAddress, &DH_&SalesRepPhoneExt, and &DH_&SalesRepFaxExt.
|
| |
241. Added macro field &DH_&SalesRepFullName.
|
| |
242. Added Misc Access right "CannotManuallyModifyFixedPriceInAddItemAssistant". When an item is selected from the product database and the item pricing method is set to "Fixed" and this right is set, the user will not be able to change the Unit Price in the Add Item Assistant. -New: Added Misc Access right
|
| |
243. "CannotManuallyModifyPriceModifierInAddItemAssistant". When an item is selected from the product database and the item pricing method is set to a price modifier based method and this right is set, the user will not be able to change the Price Modifier in the Add Item Assistant.
|
| |
244. Added support for CustomMemo01 and CustomMemo02 fields when linking to an external product data source.
|
| |
245. When running the Configurator, full description field value will now be displayed in a tool-tip.
|
| |
246. When inserting fields into the layout designer, the last field that you just inserted will now be selected by default which will help when selecting several fields in a row by defaulting the selection to a selection close to the next field that you may be inserting.
|
| |
247. For QuickBooks users, there is now an option to specify 'Ready for Export' criteria. With this new feature, only documents that match your criteria will be displayed in the Non-Exported documents tab on the QuickBooks batch export window. The DocType can now be specified in addition to the DocStatus being 'Equal to' or 'Not Equal to' one or more values. This is useful to set, for example, DocStatus 'Not Equal to' "Lost,Void,Exported" so that any documents that have been Lost, Voided, or Exported will not be displayed. The drop-down list will display all DocStatus F2 Lookup values and all unique values from the database.
|
| |
248. For QuoteWerks built-in contact database users, on the Lookup QuoteWerks contact window accessed by the Contacts|Lookup menu added a [Clone] button to clone existing contacts.

|
| |
257. For QuickBooks users, on the Product Lookup window, you can now enter a % symbol before the value in the manufacturer part number field (QuickBooks Item Name) to return any products that end with the value you are searching for. If you also check the "Begins with" checkbox, it will return any products that contain the value you are searching for. You can also just use the % symbol before and/or after to value to accommodate all combinations ("%door", "door%", "%door%") without having to check the "Begins with" checkbox.
|
| |
258. For Peachtree users, on the Product Lookup window, you can now enter a % symbol before the value in the manufacturer part number field (Peachtree Item ID) to return any products that end with the value you are searching for. If you also check the "Begins with" checkbox, it will return any products that contain the value you are searching for. You can also just use the % symbol before and/or after to value to accommodate all combinations ("%door", "door%","%door%") without having to check the "Begins with" checkbox.
|
| |
259. For salesforce.com users, on the Product Lookup window, you can now enter a % symbol before the value in the manufacturer part number field (salesforce.com Product Code) to return any products that end with the value you are searching for.

You can also just use the % symbol before and/or after to value to accommodate all combinations ("%door", "door%","%door%") without having to check the "Begins with" checkbox.
|
| |
260. On the Product Lookup window, when a salesforce.com Product Data Source is selected and the grid has focus, pressing the F5 key will force QuoteWerks to re-retrieve the list of products from salesforce.com (rather than use the cached values normally used for increased performance).
|
| |
261. Added new Utilities|API Info menu to the Medic Utility. This will verify that the qw4.dll is registered and functioning, and will display the location, version and date/time of the file.
|
| |
262. On the QuickBooks and Peachtree batch export window, pressing the F5 key will refresh the list of documents displayed.
|
| |
263. For Peachtree users, when exporting an Invoice to Peachtree, if the DocDueDate field on the QuoteWerks Sale Info tab was empty, a Due Date will be calculated using the Terms value with the reference date being the Document Date or Date Exported depending upon the setup option you have selected in the Peachtree link setup.
|
| |
264. On the Compare Assistant window, when searching for a part number, any part numbers that begin with the entered value will be displayed rather than only exact matches.
|
| |
265. For Peachtree users, "Cost of Sales" type accounts are now listed in the Default GL Purchase Account drop down on the Items subtab of the Mappings tab under the Tools|Options menu.
|
| |

Here you can specify the physical location of your company which can then be used in print layouts, cover pages. The cover pages macros for this information are: &APP_OurLocationCompany, &APP_OurLocationContact, &APP_OurLocationAddress1, &APP_OurLocationAddress2, &APP_OurLocationAddress3, &APP_OurLocationCity, &APP_OurLocationState, APP_OurLocationPostalCode, &APP_OurLocationCountry, &APP_OurLocationPhoneNumber, &APP_OurLocationPhoneExt, &APP_OurLocationFaxNumber, &APP_OurLocationFaxExt, &APP_OurLocationEmail, &APP_&OurLocationAddress, &APP_&OurLocationFullAddress. The similiarly named fields are also available in the print layout designer through the Insert|Data Field menu, under the "Application" table.
|
| |
267. On the Documents tab of the Tools|Options menu, the default Doc Due Date can now be cleared (set to blank). When this is done, the default Doc Due Date will be blank.
|
| |
268. In Customize Product Columns window, double-clicking on a field will now Add or Remove the item from the list depending upon which list the field is in.
|
| |
269. In the Product Lookup window, the product database resizing pane can now be resized 20% wider.
|
| |
270. Added new 'DLL' object to the QuoteWerks API Backend qw4.dll. Through this QuoteWerksBackend.DLL interface you can retrieve the properties: VersionMajor, VersionMinor, VersionRevision, File. These are useful in determining which version of the backend object is currently installed. This feature was added in revision 10 of version 4.0.
|
| |
271. For API users, QuoteWerksBackend.Installations collection now includes all the installations that are available through the local machine. The collection lists the installations in the priority assigned through the QuoteWerks Launcher app. The collection only lists installations that are currently valid and accessible which is useful in situations where QuoteWerks is installed on the network and on the local laptop. Typically in that environment, the QuoteWerks Launcher would be used to set the Network installation as the first installation to try and use and if it is not available, then use the laptop installation. When the laptop is disconnected from the network, the Laptop installation will be the first installation listed in the collection. For existing code, this change mostly changes which installation is located in the (1) position of the installations collection. Before build 33 it was the last installation installed. After build 33 it is whichever installation has been set as the top priority.
|
| |
272. Added new Peachtree option "Use company name instead of contact name for Ship To Name" on the Customers subtab of the Mappings tab on the Peachtree Interactive Link Setup. When this option is selected, the company name instead of the contact name will be used when creating the ship to record in the Peachtree customer record and also in the Peachtree Invoice, Sales Order, and/or Purchase Orders.
|
|
| Version 4.0 Build 31 (released September 13, 2007) |
|
| |
273. Tremendously improved Peachtree link. This new Peachtree link uses the interactive Peachtree API instead of the older manual export and import methods which brings many new features and benefits. You can now export batches of invoices/sales orders and/or purchase orders to Peachtree. If a customer does not exist in Peachtree, QuoteWerks can now create customers in Peachtree for you. Customer information is also updated automatically. If an Inventory Item does not exist in Peachtree, QuoteWerks can now create items in Peachtree for you. Item prices in Peachtree are also updated automatically. Grouped bundles can now be exported as a single line item in Peachtree. When purchase orders are created in Peachtree, there is now an option to lookup the vendor full name in Peachtree to obtain the Vendor ID for the Peachtree Vendor. Using this option, you no longer need to maintain a manual translation between vendor names and Peachtree Vendor ID's. You can now choose which vendors you want to create purchase orders for instead of just all of them. The Peachtree link now has Purchase Order creation options of Never, Always, and Prompt. The invoice and SO due date is now based on the DocDueDate field on the Sale Info tab instead of just 30 days from the document date. The PO Good Through date passed to Peachtree is now 30 days from the export date. There are now 5 sales rep id mapping options and the manual mapping now displays the Peachtree Sales Rep ID and Peachtree Sales Rep full name on the mapping window making it much easier to setup. When exporting, if a manual sales rep id mapping is not found, you will be prompted to select the appropriate rep. Purchase Orders can now be exported separately from the corresponding Invoice/Sales Order. There is now an option for 'Part Numbers are required for all items exported to Peachtree'. QuoteWerks can link directly to the Peachtree product list (without the need to import the data) giving you access to real-time availability, part numbers, description, and pricing. Peachtree can now be used as a source of customer/contact information just like the integration to the contact management software! DataLink support has been added for Peachtree including ability to pull from ShipVia, BillToTaxCode, and Custom fields into the quote. Works with Peachtree 2006, 2007, and 2008.
|
| |
274. Improved Paste Special Wizard now supports the ability to copy data from outside of QuoteWerks and paste it into QuoteWerks as line items in the quote. Static information such as descriptions, prices, etc can be pasted in and/or a part number can be used to retrieve all the product details from a product database. This feature can be useful for integrating with external software outputs like the Cisco and HP configurators. The Cisco configurator outputs a ManufacturerPartNumber, Description, and Quantity. QuoteWerks can now import this data as line items and automatically retrieve the price for these items from a QuoteWerks product database. The HP configurator outputs a ManufacturerPartNumber only. QuoteWerks can now import this data as line items and automatically retrieve the Description, and Price for these items from a QuoteWerks product database. All settings can be saved to templates and with the One-Step option, a paste special can be run with a single click. Pre-defined sources like the "Tech Data Shopping Cart File" and "Tech Data Search Result File" already contain all the paste special template details like field mappings, file names, etc enabling you to get up and running fast.
|
| |
275. Added Misc Access right. You may want to restrict a user from being able to delete a Paste Special Template. Use the Misc Access right "CannotDeletePasteSpecialTemplate".
|
| |
276. Added Misc Access right. A user may have the rights to save the changes to an existing Paste Special Template, but you may not want them to be able to create a new Paste Special Template. Use the Misc Access right "CannotCreatePasteSpecialTemplate" which would prohibit them from saving to a new .qii Paste Special Template file.
|
| |
277. Added Misc Access right. You want a user to be able to load an existing Paste Special Template, make changes and run the changes, BUT NOT save the changes into that template. Use the Misc Access right "CannotSavePasteSpecialTemplateChanges".
|
| |
278. There is now an toolbar button for the Peachtree link.
|
| |
279. There is now a User Full Name setting on the Personal tab of the Tools|My Preferences menu. While we recommend that you setup QuoteWerks User Login names to be the reps name like "John Lewe", in the event you setup the QuoteWerks User Login name to be more like "JLEWE", this Full Name setting enables you to set it to a full name like "John C. Lewe IV" and then display this Full Name on print layouts, reports, and cover pages.
|
| |
280. Added 4 more CustomText fields on the Custom tab of the Quote WorkBook. Added fields CustomText17, CustomText18, CustomText19, and CustomText20.
|
| |
281. The manual Sales Rep ID mapping setup in the interactive QuickBooks link now displays the QuickBooks Sales Rep Initials and QuickBooks Sales Rep full name on the mapping window making it much easier to setup.
|
| |
282. In the QuickBooks link, when prompted to have QuoteWerks create an item in QuickBooks for you, you can now modify the description for the new QuickBooks item definition to be different than the description of the item in the current document.
|
| |
283. Added [Save] button on Finish step of Import Wizard and Sync Wizard so that the settings can be saved without having to run the import or sync process.
|
| |
284. Added new option "When choosing Optional item(s), default to keeping them Optional." under the Misc tab of the Tools|My Preferences menu. This sets the default for the "Display as optional item(s) on document" checkbox on the Add Item Assistant window and the "When adding to quote, flag as Optional item." checkbox on the Optional Items window.
|
| |
285. The QuoteWerks WebConnector now supports the additional parameters of &QuoteWerksUserName= and &QuoteWerksUserPassword=. If these new parameters are added to the URL string passed to the WebConnector, and QuoteWerks is not already running, the QuoteWerks WebConnector login window will be bypassed using the supplied credentials. Note, you can use the DECRYPT: feature of the QuoteWerks login password so that the actual password does not have to be included in the URL as plain text that anyone can see.
|
| |
286. Added new salesforce.com option "Enable 'SandBox' mode testing environment". This option enables QuoteWerks to to take advantage of the salesforce.com Sandbox which enables you to create a fully replicated, scalable on-demand customer replica environment for customization, integration, testing, development and training purposes.
|
| |
287. When using alternate currencies, in the "Totals for All items" frame, a button will appear that when pressed will display the totals in the alternate currency instead of the base currency.
|
| |
288. When saving a document as a template, if the DocDate is cleared, when the template is used, the DocDate will be set to today's date.
|
| |
289. When saving a document as a template, if the DocDueDate is cleared, when the template is used, the DocDueDate will be set to today's date (or using the DocDueDate default feature it can be set to x days from today).
|
| |
290. On the Documents tab of the Tools|Options menu there is now a Doc Due Date days setting. You can use this to default the due date for the document to a specified number of days in the future.

The preferred warehouse for each P&A distributor can be specified on the Real-time tab of the Tools|Options menu.
|
| |
304. The [Export to Clipboard] button on the Price Comparison window will now export all the items if none are selected, otherwise it will export all selected items. Previously, it always exported all the items.
|
| |
305. Added [Save All] button to the Price Comparison window that will save changes to all selected line items or all line items if none are specifically selected.

This is particularly useful if you need to make sure that QuoteWerks is not running before you run some other process like a file backup or behind the scenes manipulation of QuoteWerks data. This command line can be used like "qw4.exe /shutdown". If QuoteWerks is not running, then it will start briefly and then shutdown. If it is running, then it will be shutdown. It is important to note that this command line parameter is designed to make sure QuoteWerks stops running. As such, if there are any open documents in the running instance of QuoteWerks, they will not be saved.

To set this restriction, Use the security right "CannotSetOneStepSyncProfile".
|
| |
398. Misc Access right. You may want to restrict the user from making any changes to synchronization settings before running them. Using the security right "CannotModifySyncSession" will disable the Advanced Sync options of "Start new session" or "start session using profile".

When searching the Outlook database for contacts to use, QuoteWerks can return the Business address, Home address, or both.

Macro fields like &PricingLevel01.Amount exist so that users can easily import data into one of the data placeholders in these fields. If you export a QuoteWerks product database and need to re-import it, with this new feature, you can now map the actual database field of PricingLevel01 to the PricingLevel01 field in the import file which will import all pieces of data into the database field.
|
| |
424. On the Products|Setup Product Data Sources menu, you can select a QuoteWerks native Product Data Source, right click and choose the Export menu to export all the items in the data source into a tab delimited text file.
