Lock/Unlock Budgets

Accounting users with the ‘Lock/Unlock Budgets’ permission enabled can lock and unlock budgets. Locking a budget prevents other users from making changes to the budget. Likewise, unlocking a budget allows changes to be made. Without the necessary ‘Lock/Unlock Budgets’ permission enabled, Accounting users cannot freely make changes to existing budgets.




View Activity in My Workflows

The My Workflows page now includes a Show/Hide Activity button that can be used to view a history of all action performed on the selected workflow. The Activity pane also allows users to attach comments to the workflow.




Assign Missing Items in Docs to Process

When there are unlinked vendor items on the Draft Transaction sidesheet in Docs to Process, users will be notified of the number of unlinked items. From the Unlinked Items tab, users can assign existing items in R365 to vendor items or create new items to link to the vendor items. 




Create UofM for Purchased Items

Users can now create new units of measure for purchased items from the Draft Transaction page of Documents to Process. When a document, such as an AP invoice, includes a new purchased item, the unit of measure for that item might not exist in the system. Users can select the Assigned Details drop-down in the Linked Items section of the Draft Transaction to create a new unit of measure.




AP Capture Automatically Creates Vendor Item Numbers

When an invoice includes a vendor item that does not have a Vendor Item Number, R365 automatically creates and assigns a Vendor Item Number by appending the UofM to the Vendor Item Name.


Example: Ground Beed - 1lbs


The automatically assigned Vendor Item Number can be edited later in the Vendor Item record that gets created when the transaction is saved.


For more information about fields in the Details section of Draft Transaction, see Documents to Process Page.

Operations


Purchase Order and AP Invoice Automap

Purchase orders and AP invoices will now automatically link to one another when both the purchase order and AP invoice meet specific criteria. 



A submitted PO will automap to an AP Invoice when:

  • The PO/Inv. have the same vendor
  • The PO/Inv. have the same location
  • The PO total and invoice amount are within a certain % variance, and the PO delivery date and invoice date are within a certain number of days. These are dependent on the tiered matching rules.


Read about the automap match rules here.

  • New Templates tab on the Invoices page
  • Template selector added to the Smart Ops AP Invoice form
  • New Food AP Invoice Template permissions



Purchase Orders: Vendor Item Name Column

Reports


Employee Certification Report

Managers can run the Employee Certification Report for a quick view of their employee's current certifications. This report can be especially useful when making scheduling decisions or to remind employees if their certifications are out of date. For example, if employees are expected to complete an annual food safety training, this report shows which employees are overdue to renew that certification.




Guest Transaction Detail

The Guest Check Transaction Detail allows users to view transaction details on individual guest checks to effectively address customer concerns. For example, if a customer has a complaint about the quality of their meal and requests a refund, the user can run this report to gain details about the transaction and refund the relevant items in the guest's order. The report provides access to comprehensive check information, including the check number, cashier name, items sold, any discounts applied, the total amount of the charge, any change due, and the method of payment.
