Please be advised that new system updates will be released in April 2023. System downtime is required for some databases. The release date and downtime varies based on which EMDECS database / URL you use to access the system:
| Program Area | Release notes | Item Type | |
| 1 | Financials -> Month End- > Setup Recurring Journals | Fixed an issue where the Warehouse and Vendor Fields would sometimes be missing on the Recurring Journal Entry popup screen | Bug Fix |
| 2 | Administration -> Vendors -> Import Vendors -> Download Template | Fixed : A 'Currency' column has been added as a field to the Import Vendors template, for use with vendors who do transactions in a different currency than the user | Bug Fix |
| 3 | Tech RO -> Enter badge -> WO Drilldown | Added a new Undo button to the Technician Pause functionality, for use when the tech pauses to work on another item then does not actually log any time on the new item. On returning to the paused work order they can use the Undo button and time will start again on the last labour they were working on before they paused. | Bug Fix |
| 4 | Administration -> Corporate Setup Manager -> Tax Codes | Fixed an issue where newly created tax codes would not appear on the Corporate Profile screens until the user signed out and then signed back in again | Bug Fix |
| 5 | Service -> Service Board | Fixed the database error that can occur when users schedule work on the service board | Bug Fix |

| 7 | Financials -> AP Invoices -> Non Repair Bill | Fixed an issue where you could not void a non-repair bill that had been submitted for approval and then returned for revision | Bug Fix |
| 8 | Mobile App | Fixed an issue with the PM Inspection functionality of the EMDECS Mobile App where sometimes an incorrect technician name would be shown. | Bug Fix |
| 9 | Administration -> User Accounts -> User Manager | Fixed an issue that prevented EMDECS Cloud users with the Shop Management license from seeing the labour standard hours of service programs | Bug Fix |
| 10 | Parts -> Part Master | Fixed an issue where you could not initialize the serial number feature on a part if there was a voided receiving for the part elsewhere in the system. | Bug Fix |
| 11 | Reports -> Employees -> Audit Timesheet | Fixed an issue where the state of the Imported Only checkbox in the scheduled Audit Time Sheet report would revert to "unchecked" if the user moved to another step of the scheduling wizard then moved back. | Bug Fix |
| 12 | Service -> Service Board | Fixed an issue where, if the Service Board was filtered using the Checked In radio button and then the user drilled into a work order shown on that screen, on returning to the Service Board the filter would be removed even though the Checked In radio button was still selected. | Bug Fix |
| 13 | Service -> Complete RO | Fixed an issue where an error would occur when splitting an RO and then moving the currently selected labour line to the target RO. | Bug Fix |
| 14 | Parts -> Receive Parts | Fixed an issue where receiving an Auto Replenish does not generate a PO Number. | Bug Fix |
| 15 | Reports -> AR -> Misc. Invoice Register | A second version of the Miscellaneous Customer Invoice Register report has been added, which exports to an Excel file instead of PDF format | Bug Fix |
| 16 | Parts -> Part Master | Fixed an issue where serialized tires that were dismounted and set as USED would show as NEW in the inventory. | Bug Fix |
| 17 | Parts -> Receive Parts -> Receiving History | Fixed receivings not displaying Linked RO# at inventory receiving report & on inventory receiving screen | Bug Fix |
| 18 | Service -> Service Board | Fixed an issue where work required that was added to a unit after checking in that unit would not show when trying to assign a tech to that work from the Service Board | Bug Fix |
| 19 | Service -> Complete RO | Fixed an issue where, if the description of a part was very long, it would overlap other fields in the Issue Part popup | Bug Fix |
| 20 | Service -> Service Board | Fixed issue on Delete Assigned technician and assign new technician | Bug Fix |
| 21 | Service -> Service Board | Fixed an issue where scheduling a labour item when checking in a unit could not be reversed. | Bug Fix |
| 22 | Administration -> Corporate Setup Manager -> McLeod Integration | Fixed exception error on save of reading | Bug Fix |
| 23 | Service -> Complete RO | Fixed an issue with surcharges for cGVs that also create work orders for non-FXG customers. | Bug Fix |
| 24 | Tech RO | Fixed TechRO displaying pagination in mobile and not all labor lines in single page. | Bug Fix |
| 25 | Financials -> Financial Manager | Fixed an issue where exporting a journal to Sage 50 Quantum accounting would sometimes fail because EMDECS supports longer invoice numbers than Sage 50 Quantum. Journals exported to that accounting software will now truncate invoice numbers if necessary to fit Sage 50 Quantum's limitation. | Bug Fix |
| 26 | Service -> CompleteRO -> +Non-Repair Bill | You can now search by customer code with the basic search feature in the non-repair bill screen | Enhancement |
| 27 | Cosmetic changes to RO Statuses to make them easier to read. | Enhancement | |
| 28 | Financials -> Bank Reconciliation | You can now sort by the Reference column in the Bank Reconciliation popup | Enhancement |
| 29 | Financials -> Financial Manager -> GL Mapping | Repair Order GL mapping has been simplified | Enhancement |
| 30 | Administration -> Corporate Setup Manager -> Invoice Setup | Several new toggles have been added to the Standard work order invoice report. They will let you show or hide the following elements when printing a Standard work order invoice: your customer's address, your corporate address, your corporate logo, and the Copy label (e.g., "Customer Copy/Office Copy") and report title ("Repair Order Invoice"). This has been done to better accommodate pre-printed invoice forms that already have this information in the header. | Enhancement |
| 31 | Parts -> Part Master | You can now reverse the superceding of a part. To do this, drill into the superceding part, click its Superceded Parts link, and then delete the entry of any part that you no longer want it to supercede. The part(s) whose records you delete here will become "independent" of the superceding part again. | Enhancement |
| 32 | Mobile App | Made the Repair History module of the EMDECS Mobile App accessible to any user with any EMDECS account | Enhancement |
| 33 | Parts -> Counter Sale Manager -> Order Request | For accessibility reasons, we increased the font size for Notes that are printed on an Order Request Estimate | Enhancement |
| 34 | Parts → Counter sales → Back Orders | A new screen has been added to better handle counter sales that have been triggered by a PO issued on an earlier counter sale. When a customer seeks to buy more of a part than you have on-hand, and you generate a Parts Order PO to accommodate them, an entry will now appear in the screen Counter Sale Manager > Back Orders. If you set the "Show Parts with On-hands Only" checkbox there to ON, the entry will only show once you have received the PO's parts. This way you can tell at a glance which orders you can now fulfill for customers, plus a button has been added that lets you generate the fulfilling counter sale directly without having to switch back to the main Counter Sale screen. | Enhancement |
| 35 | Reports -> Financials -> Trial Balance Export | Enhanced the Trial Balance Excel export so that users should never have to manually change column widths to improve readability of the report | Enhancement |
