Previous Release Notes Shoper POS 7.2 Rel. 2.953

Enhancements Backup The performance of Shoper 7.2 backup during day end is enhanced. Data Archival The data archival application is provided as part of the standard menu. Close Day

Day End program is optimised for improvement in performance. If any files fail to get uploaded to the FTP site during the Day End process, the same would be uploaded the following day during the Day End process. ID/IM ID/IM Flat file creation during Day End is optimised. Setup The provision to shift Day End Backup to Day Begin has been provided under Supervisory option.


Bug fixes Close Day 32278 During the Day End process an error was displayed ItemMaster does

Setup/Configuration 32344 While creating price masters through item master entry the analysis

code was not in order. This issue has been resolved.

Sales Reports 32848 The display of item quantities sold for the required sizes was not

properly aligned in the Size Wise Sales report. The quantity details were displayed alongside the sizes of the stock items causing confusion. This issue has been resolved.

Stock Reports 32838 The Size-wise Stock Reports did not display/ print the quantity under

relevant sizes. The first 48 numbers of sizes for a product-brand combination were being considered for the report and the rest were being omitted. This has been resolved by clubbing the stocks held under the sizes beyond 48 numbers of sizes and displayed under the caption Others. This issue has been resolved.

Billing 35762 In some cases while during sales return, there was an inconsistency in

the sale value and cash collected. Day End program attempted to fix this by modifying the records, which was sometimes resulting in wrong payment modes shown in the cash reports for those transactions. This issue has been resolved.


Shoper POS 7.2 Rel. 2.952 Bill Printing 31194 Bill printing was not possible if there was any mismatch between the

customer name and the name in the Mailing list information. By running the script provided to update the mailing list name, this

problem can be resolved. 32004 If there was more than one tax component, the tax amount of each

component was not getting printed separately during bill printing. This issue has been resolved. Slips 27294 A new option Pending Order / Trn Closure under Sales menu is

provided to foreclose the partially consumed or not consumed Slips during billing.

30837 While scanning items for Slips, if there were blank lines in between,

these lines were being saved as line items with zero value. This issue has been resolved. Export/ Import 32511 When new items were imported using the option DC Import with the

file format as GUI with Delimiter New Format from Shoper 9 to Shoper 7.2, some of the inventory information was being updated incorrectly. This resulted in incorrect data while generating stock related reports.

This issue has been resolved. 31307 When PT files created from Shoper9 with file format as GUI with

Delimiter New Format were loaded to Shoper 7.2 by DC Import, a runtime error was being displayed if the supplier name contained more than 30 characters.

This issue has been resolved. Now, if the supplier name contains more than 30 characters, it gets truncated to 30 characters by accepting only the first 30 characters.

31350 While importing Item Master, the fields Retail Price, Dealer Price,

Current Cost and Last purchase price were not being validated for negative values.

This issue has been resolved.


Inwards/ Outwards 32798 When PT files created from Shoper9 with the file format as GUI with

Delimiter New Format were loaded to Shoper 7.2 by Goods Inward, a runtime error was being displayed if the supplier name contained more than 30 characters.

This issue has been resolved. Now, if the supplier name contains more

than 30 characters, it gets truncated to 30 characters by accepting only the first 30 characters.

32508 When new items were imported using the option Goods Inwards with

file format as GUI with Delimiter New Format from Shoper 9 to Shoper 7.2, some of the inventory information were being updated incorrectly. This was resulting in incorrect data while generating stock related reports.

This issue has been resolved. 31998 During Goods Inwards, if the item details were loaded from a PDT

file, then these item details were being displayed in the item grid with a blank line between each line item. Due to these blank lines, it was not possible to save the Goods Inwards entries made.

This issue has been resolved. 32337 The values edited in Goods Outwards transaction were not being

updated properly. A script is now provided to correct the edited values of Goods

Outwards transactions. Pricing Master Entry 31353 During the Item Master entry, some of the fields were not being

updated properly in their corresponding master tables. This issue has been resolved. MIS Reports 32122 While generating Customerwise Productwise OffTake Report:

A message Record Not found was being displayed if the report was based on the selection criteria Description.

Item details for more than one customer were being clubbed instead of displaying item details for each customer separately.

These issues have been resolved. Additionally, now it is possible to generate the report where orders can

be sorted on the basis of Quantity, Value or Customer Code.


Sales Reports 32231 While exporting Daywise Sales Reports to MS Excel, the columns

were not being displayed in the appropriate sequence. This issue has been resolved. Stock Reports 31887 If the Stock Movement Report is generated based on Transacted

In such situations, Shoper checks the version in the application database with the version of the corresponding EXE to launch any option.

unreadable due to malware attacks, typically computer viruses. Due to this, some or all menu options would not be functional, displaying a "Version Mismatch" message.

While we continue to strongly recommend that all Shoper installations


be protected from all forms of malware with updated anti-virus, anti-worm and other software defence mechanisms, we have changed the method of storage of our version number to enable your business to run even if the executables are infected.

Please note that this change will actually help propagate these

malware across your network - making it all the more important that you follow best practices in keeping your IT systems protected.
