Overview
Happy Thanksgiving! After getting stuffed with a delicious feast yesterday, some of you may feel like a walrus, sitting on a cornflake, waiting for the sun to come…or was it the egg man? Well, probably only John Lennon knows the answer to this riddle. All we hope is that you enjoyed your Thanksgiving dinner and being with your family and friends.
In the meantime, we have prepared another release filled with new features and improvements to metasfresh ERP. Among other things, we added a trading BOM that allows you to combine several individual components to create a new trading product. Also we extended our API by a new endpoint for retrieving invoice reports in PDF format, and we implemented the functionality to record an alternative recipient name for an address that will override the parent business partner name without deleting any existing and important data.
In addition to some layout adjustments and optimizations for better usability of metasfresh, we tracked down a tiny bug, caught it and sent it off on an ice floe to the Arctic to find out who the walrus really is. We watched it run like pigs from a gun and heard an elementary penguin singing Hare Krishna. Man, you should have seen them kicking Edgar Allen Poe.
Check out the list below for more details on the new features and fixes. And also have a look at the documentations at the end of the list related to some of the features included in this week’s release. Try them out yourself and see how they work. Goo goo g’joob!
