Liberty4 2.4b Release Notes
4493

Just a reminder!!!

(This feature was actually released in 2.4a)

 We have added a VERY powerful enhancement to this release of L4TA - an image "slideshow." This will allow you to create a much more powerful and impressive listing. To take advantage of this new listing enhancement, you will need to modify your HTML Template.

Editing your HTML template is as simple as locating your HTML Template in C:\RWD\Auction Templates, right-clicking on the template and choosing "Open With > Notepad." You can then insert the HTML Tags we have listed below. If you are not familiar with editing HTML, please contact your Web Design specialist or let Resaleworld.com customize your template for you. For pricing, please contact our Sales Department via (800) 858-1758.

The format to insert your Image Slideshow would be "<#Field SlideShowA/>". The default delay/speed of the Slideshow is 3 seconds. To change the delay/speed, just add ":# of seconds" to the end of the Tag, i.e.: "<#Field SlideShowA:10/>".
4515 We added a new "right-click > Copy Order ID to clipboard" feature in In Order Manager when 2.4a was released. Customers reported seeing a "Field 'IWEB_ORDER_ID' not found" message when attempting to use this new feature. 2.4b provides full use of this handy little add-on.
4517 Tags are now printing from within Retail Vendor accounts.
4527 You can now delete the "F2 - Canned Descriptions" from within Item Entry. These are used to store or "can" certain bits of pre-filled information.
4532 We have added the "Set Posting Date" feature back into POS under Setup > Set Posting Date.
4533 Spelling mistake fixed on the #2 - Inventory tab within the "Disposition Detail" for "Received" - this previously read "Recieved."
4536 If you change the Pay Delay setting under Tools > Options > Payouts, the Transactions tab will now update after clicking the "Refresh" button. This will now show the Total Payable date "as of" when you click "Refresh" instead of having to close out of the account completely.
4538 We added the "Change Sales Person" feature back into POS. You can now use "File > Change Sales Person" or "ctrl + F2" to toggle between different sales people in POS.
4545 When attempting to run the Cash Drawer Total report in POS, customers reported seeing an "Error 513" in release 2.4a. This report is now printing correctly in 2.4b.
4547 On tab #2 - Inventory, the right-click "Filter > Desc. Contains" feature is now functioning. It was returning no results prior to 2.4b. This also leads into the ability to "sort" on the Description column within the same tab. In 2.4a an "Invalid Argument %T" message would appear when attempting to use this feature.
4548 The Terminal IDs were not "sticking" in the 2.4a release of POS. Each time you closed out of POS, the Terminal ID would be set back to "Default." This issue has been resolved with the 2.4b release.
4550 When the new serial numbers were released, the POS and Order Manager modules were not reflecting the correct licensing mode and only showed "DEMO." This did not completely impede the use of either module except for when trying to add new Customers via POS. When in DEMO mode, you are only allowed to add up to 20 accounts. This has been resolved in 2.4b.
4553 In 2.4a, it was possible to save an item without a Price Code selected. This did not cause any problems at that point, but when you attempted to sell the item via POS, you would see an "Access Violation." This has been resolved in 2.4b and if you try to save an item without a Price Code you will see a "There is no value for Price Code" message and will not be able to save that item until a Price Code is selected.
4554 We have added the phone number back in the Title Bar of the Account Detail.
4555 We noticed that when in the Category Editor, if you added a new Category and then clicked the little "+" sign before adding the next Cateogry, once you added the next/new Category, it wouldn't appear until you completely closed out of Liberty. This has been resolved in 2.4b and Categories now show up as soon as they are created.
4556 We have added the "Company" column back into the Account List.
4557 In the first release of L4C, we required all Liberty systems to be on at least Liberty 2002 v1.4e. We have applied the necessary changes to the latest L4C update to allow users on earlier versions to now be eligible for the update.
4559 The new Conversion routine is updating the database with all necessary components. For customers who are just converting from a legacy application (i.e., LFW, CB-DOS, etc.) you will have all necessary entries in the database needed to run the software without errors.
4560 There was a "blank" column header on the Inventory tab. This was actually the "Notes" column, without a description in the header. Also, on the Transactions tab the column read "HAS_NOTE." We have updated both of these to simply read "Note."
4561 In 2.4a, if you attempted to print an Item List "with or without descriptions" by right-clicking in the Inventory grid and choosing "Print," you would see an "Error 534." The Item List is now printing properly in 2.4b.
4564 Customers reported seeing items that were past their expiration period as "Expired" as opposed to what they were actually posted as (i.e., Donated, Returned, etc.). This has been addressed in 2.4b and items past their expiration date will now show the exact posting status for their Disposition.
4569 Tags are now printing the "Tag Name" as opposed to the "Store Name." Only customers that use a different name to print on tags were seeing this issue. For customers that have identical store/tag names, they would never have noticed this issue.
4571 When performing a "Change" sale in POS, the cost of a Retail item will now appear in the dialog. This was previously just showing as $0.00. The sale and totals worked just fine, but on the screen it would only show $0.00.
4572 We have added a much needed "Auction Status" filter on our "Closed Auctions Email" Report. This allows you to filter on statuses such as "Not Sold On Relist." This is helpful if you need to send out a "bulk" email to sellers that have items needing to be picked up after 2 tries on eBay.
4573 We added the "Item Disposition" to our Inventory > Item Description Reports. This will allow you to run Inventory Reports on an account-specific basis, but for Item Dispositions such as "Sold," "Donated," etc.
4574

There is a now a way to email Clients an Item List!!! When in a Client's account and you click "Print Item List," you will see an "Item List - Email" Report. This allows you to send a list directly to the email address on the Client's account with a list of their items. Also, in the Reports Module, you will find a new Report under the Emails category named "Item List Email." This Report allows you to email a group of Clients with the click of a button! It will send each Client their own Report, not the same Report for everyone.

MANDATORY SETTINGS:

You MUST add a "Header" and/or "Footer" note/text to this email. To do so, head to Tools > Ecommerce Options > Email Settings. You can add up to 200 characters for the Header and/or the Footer. For example, "This is a list of items that needs to be picked up from our store."

You will also need to tell Liberty about your email info. This is also set under Tools > Ecommerce Options > Email Settings. You will need to enter your SMTP (outgoing) mail server address, the Port # (usually 25) and the User ID and password this SMTP server requires. Please contact your email provider or ISP for these settings.

Finally, you will need to make sure the account you wish to send this email to has the "Receive Email" option checked on the Account Detail > Add'l Info. tab

A log of emails and activity is tracked in the "CRUFLido.log" file located in the C:\RWD folder.
4575 When in the Account List, you no longer have to click a column twice to sort. For example, if you clicked "Last Name," you would have to click it again in order to get the list to sort. This has been resolved in 2.4b.
4576 We would occasionally receive Support calls regarding missing reports or reports not updating. After testing this over and over again, it appears that the cause of this is/was most likely due to the Reports Database being "in use" at the time of updating. We have added a new dialog to the update installer that will pop-up/prompt if the Reports Database is in fact in use at the time of the update.
4584 Customers had reported seeing "Error 513" when attempting to print the 3-across mailing labels from the Reports module. These are now functioning correctly as of 2.4b.
