Onventis 2022.1
The Onventis 2022.1 release contains various improvements and bugfixes in the Procure-to-Pay and Platform areas. Check out the full list below!
Release date: Tuesday, February 1, 2022
Supplier Management
All company data, which is updated on the Onventis Supplier Portal registration, including data fields like company name, main address data, VAT ID, VAT ID status, and D-U-N-S number, are transferred to the inviting customer right after finishing the registration and therefore creating the Supplier Portal organization. So the latest and most valid version of company data is provided to the customer, without the need to update the data after the Supplier Portal registration again.
When initially creating a supplier record throughout one of our corresponding input channels, all relevant data is stored in the instance used for supplier organizational data. This includes now also the company data: managing board, managing title, register number, registry court, Tax ID, and VAT ID. This data is therefore also now available in the Supplier Portal’s registration form when sending the supplier access data or when inviting new suppliers to a supplier qualification process.
For each supplier, the Republic of Kosovo can now be specified as a location in the country selection. Portal suppliers can now also select this country as a location in the address data.
To continue to provide a high level of protection against brute force attacks the used technology, Google reCaptcha, was updated to the latest version 3 on the Onventis Supplier Portal. This version includes a better user experience for all Supplier Portal users.
Procure-to-pay
Fixed a bug that caused cost types to be preselected in the shopping cart in specific cases, although they were deleted in the master data management.
Fixed a bug that caused the status of sales order positions to be changed to “Confirmed (Final delivery completed)” if a partial goods receipt was imported from SAP. This bug occurred if the order process setting “For goods receipt posting, automatically close previous process steps” was activated.
Now, only the status of those positions that are included in the partial goods receipt is changed to “Confirmed (Final delivery completed),”. In contrast, positions not included in the partial goods receipt remain in status “Confirmed (Final confirmation received).”
Fixed a bug that caused the cost allocation finding not to be executed correctly in specific cases.
Fixed a bug that allowed sending order changes with a line item quantity of 0 in specific cases.
Fixed an error that allowed selecting the “Service order” criterion for automatically booking goods receipts. A “Service” type order can now no longer be used to book goods receipts automatically.
Fixed a bug that caused wrong numbering of copied orders if an organizational unit-based number range was configured.
When transferring purchase order items with reference to a requirement item that contains delivery schedule lines, this requirement reference is transferred to SAP in all delivery schedule lines of the purchase order item.
Deleting the responsible purchasing group in the respective purchasing organization view on the SAP side is possible during the supplier update from Onventis.
Fixed a bug that allowed users to edit the article favorites list, although they had no right to edit it. Only users who have the necessary editing rights for the article favorites list can now edit the article favorites list.
Fixed a bug that allowed users to create framework orders without having the necessary license. Such framework orders were then not usable.
The possibility of creating framework orders is now offered only to users with the appropriate licenses and access rights.
Fixed an error when confirming a delivery schedule that contained a “valid until” date that already passed.
The messages from the SAP response during the BANF creation from Onventis are now logged in all requirement items for a requirement number and displayed in the change history.
Platform & Core
A new BcJob adapter is now available to import business areas through Excel and CSV.
Fixed an error, which caused certain UTF-8 characters (e. g. Umlaut-characters like ö, ä, ü) not to be imported correctly in various BcJob adapters.
