Enhancements
FFA-1354 Advanced Intercompany Journal Entry support of approval per GL line
In 1.9.0 version release introduced was the Advanced Intercompany Journal Entry as an additional record type users can run approval routing on. The approval was limited to (custom and standard) segmentation parameters and fields of transaction forms exclusively.
With this new release, users now have the flexibility to conduct approval routing based on GL accounts as well. Setting it up is simple: just drag and drop the GL impact (Line) parameter onto the matrix and designate the specific GL account that should trigger approval.
FFA-1360 ZoneApprovals Matrix, display full name of Approvers on hover
This version release further improves the ZoneApprovals Matrix look and feel, by allowing users to view the full name of an employee added as Approver on a Matrix, when hovering the name selection. This functionality is limited to Matrix edit mode only.
FFA-1363 ZoneApprovals Matrix, filter the entity dataset
Very often users use standard fields of NetSuite as parameters to run approval routing to their transactions. One of the most commonly used dataset is the Entity field. The Entity field in previous version was listing many values including Customers, Vendors, Partners, Jobs, Employees etc. This version release removes the noise and limits the Entity selection to Customers, Vendors and Employees only.
Bug Fixes
FFA-1356 Accruals running into infinite loop
Several inconsistencies were present in user's accounts, particularly concerning transactions submitted for approval that experienced updates in amounts and were processed in closed accounting periods. Following these occurrences, accruals were inconsistently generated in duplicate.
This version release introduces an overhauled accruals behavior, accounting for a notable improvement, tackling all possible events by blocking duplication of accruals being created.
FFA-1361 Rename the menu from ZoneApprovals Setup to ZoneApprovals
In the previous version release, the ZoneApprovals Setup in the Setup menu was renamed. Consequently, the navigation menu to the Bulk Approvals page was updated as well. However, due to the incorrect naming convention, the menu path of Transactions have been reverted to the initial state accordingly.
FFA-1364 Deployment tool, Default the Credit Memo deployments to 'Deploy'
In the latest version release, the Credit Memo deployment was dependent on Approval Routing enablement of the Accounting preferences, resulting in auto-approved Credit Memos. Since Credit Memos are custom transaction types in relation to native Approval Routing, this version release removes the dependency allowing users to run approval routing on Credit Memos as expected and configured.
FFA-1365 Stop the FFA Approval Framework on Rejected ZoneCapture Vendor Bills
Previously, when ZoneCapture Vendor Bills were rejected via email, they would have been automatically resubmitted for approval once again, following the AutoSubmit feature of the ZoneApprovals configuration. However, since a transaction is rejected, the standard expectation is for it to be adjusted by an end user before resubmission for approval.
To align with this expected flow, this version release introduces an additional logic that disables the AutoSubmit functionality when a Vendor Bill is rejected, preventing automatic resubmission.
FFA-1366 Deployment tool, deploying AICJE triggers an error
In the latest version release, deployment of Advanced Intercompany Journal Entry of SuiteApp installations was experiencing an error, blocking users from using the record for approval routing. This error has been completely resolved, enabling successful deployment and further configuration of the matrix.
