Work
Order
In 3.71 you now have the ability to independently select the
automatic issue of labor, materials and outside processing.
Also, the user can select to automatically distribute materials,
labor or outside processing individually by work order.
StarShip
StarShip version 7.1a will be available for new customers
with the release of MAS 90 and MAS 200 version 3.71. The two
new StarShip Link features are:
- The
invoice number is sent from MAS 90 and MAS 200 to StarShip
to make it available to print on the bottom of custom shipping
labels
- The
e-mail address found in the customer contact for the ship-to
address in MAS 90 or MAS 200 is now sent to the e-mail field
in StarShip. This will enable users to take advantage to
the StarShip feature to automatically send advance shipping
notifications directly from StarShip.
Customizer
Best has added Microsoft Script Control enhancements that
will offer customers the ability to invoke an external script
using Microsoft's Windows Script. This enhancement allows
user to invoke an external script, either VBScript (Visual
Basic Script) or Jscript (Microsoft's version of Java Script).
This feature allows you to create scripts to perform calculations,
or launch external applications, such as Microsoft Office.
An example might be performing a special customer balance
calculation in Customer Maintenance.
