      Release Notes for LOU59

      Release Date: September 27 2023

       

      LOU could it be now?!

       

      New Features

      • Accounts Receivable Post Date: When creating a Payment you can change the date to another date from the Invoice Date forward. This feature should be used with extreme caution as it impacts Accounting Records.

       

      Feature Changes and Enhancements

      • LOU Audit Log for Payment on File: When a User or Customer adds a Payment on File (POF) for a Customer, it will show on the LOU Audit Log.
      • LOU Accounting – Account Reconciliation: When selecting 500+ records, LOU will process the reconciliation in batches of 500 and email you when processing is complete. When you leave and return to a reconciliation still processing, LOU will prevent you from making changes by notifying you that the reconciliation is currently being processed and no changes may be made.
      • Calendar: The name of the Calendar was updated in additional menus from Scheduler (Beta) and Calendar to Calendar (New) and Calendar (Classic), respectively.

       

      Bug Fixes

On the Apply Payments and Credits page and the Review and Unapply page for Payments and Invoices, a Discount and Paid Amount field will display.
      • POS 2.0 Sync Date and Time: We corrected an issue that was preventing the Date and Time from updating when automatically or manually syncing Data on POS2.
      • LOU Accounting – General Ledger Register: The General Ledger Register report will now process in the background and tell the user they will receive an email when the report is ready to view.
      • LOU Accounting – GL Accounts with Special Characters: We corrected an issue that caused GL Accounts with special characters not to appear on the GL Register spreadsheet.
      • Mobile App Activations: We corrected an issue that caused inactive users to appear on the Mobile App Activation page.

      • LOU Audit Log: We corrected an issue that caused the User ID to show as both Name and Work Email.
      • Customers – Payment On File: We corrected an issue that caused the wrong amount to display on the Authorize Payment on File pop-up when a Refund was processed for a Payment on File and the full amount of the Refund was not applied.

Changes made to Kits during transactions should be for that single transaction only. To make global changes to Kit SKUs, edit the SKU on LOU Web.
      • Error Miscategorized as Info Message: We corrected an issue that caused an error message to appear as an informational message in LOU.
      • POS2 Tax Amounts Posted to GL Incorrectly: We corrected an issue that caused Tax Amounts collected on LOU Retail POS 2.0 transactions to post incorrectly to the GL as “SKU Discount – Balance Adjustment” instead of correctly posting as Tax.
