NWSP is pleased to announce that the roll out of our Q2 2013 release began this week! This is a brand new quarterly update to Tallys 5.12 and have some helpful and handy new Tallys tricks to introduce.   Contact NWSP today to schedule your implementation of the Q2 2013 update at support@tallys.ca.

Here is a brief summary of the update, available now.

Enhanced Release Detail Screen

• Store new Definitions (Release Detail Screen)  – We’ve added additional material description fields to accommodate entry of Surface, Intermediate, and Production String Requirements.
• OC# field (Release Detail Screen) –  Now contains a  field to store an Order Confirmation number (OC#).
• Date Completed (Release Detail Screen) – When a Release is complete and the inventory requested has been tallied out, a new ‘Completed’ check box at the top of the Release Detail screen can be checked, and completing the release will automatically date stamp the current date. Releases can be sorted based on completion from the Releases List screen.
• Auto population of location (LSD) on Tallies and Dispatches – If you’ve added a Release to the database which includes an LSD or location indicator, then adding that Release # to a Tally or a Dispatch will auto-populate the LSD and description to your form. Additionally, if a Tally with a release number tied to it is added to a dispatch, it’s LSD and directions will auto-populate to the Dispatch form.

New Feature – Auto-populate Dispatch Release # to Tallies tied to a Dispatch.

• If a dispatch has been started and includes a Release #, the program will populate that Release # and it’s corresponding LSD to any tallies added.

Enhanced Functionality for Tenaris Stocking Points

• Owner P.O. Field on Rack Detail – If your facility is a stocking point for Tenaris tubular goods, it is now mandatory that all of your Tenaris racks have an ‘Owner P.O.’  entered (to be provided by Tenaris). The Owner P.O.# will be automatically added to any Tally posted to or from the Rack going forward, and will in turn be viewable on Rack List Report, Stock Cards Reports and Movement Reports.

Enhanced Tier Detail Report

• This issue was brought forward by our customers: Some owners would like their storage facilities to store location indicators or LSDs on an individual joint basis when pipe is being tallied onto a rack, which helps them to keep a record of where the inventory originated from. Tallys now allowing 20 characters to be entered and printed on Tier Detail reports accommodates these customers.

          Please keep in mind : the ‘Heat#’ header can be changed on a per owner basis.

Enhanced ‘Stock Card’ reference column in the ‘Rack Export’

• When Rack Detail is exported to a spreadsheet from the racks list menu (a .txt file best viewed in Excel), the resulting export now includes a column to store Stock Card numbers.

Enhanced character allowance for  ‘owner part #’.

• We have added additional space to the ‘owner part #’ field on the Equipment Detail screen so that it can accept up to 12 alphanumeric characters.

Enhanced ‘Ship Items’ maximum quantity.

• The ‘Ship Items’ count on an in or outbound Shipment will now accept a part quantity up to 5 digits in length (max of 99999 parts).
