    Accounts Payable

    Warning when payment terms are deleted

    If all the payment terms fields are cleared, PROCESS DIRECTOR automatically enters the payment terms values from the vendor master data or the purchase order. This behavior is different from MIRO, where it is possible to post with empty payment term fields. If the new user setting “Show payment terms change information popup” is activated, PROCESS DIRECTOR now issues a warning to inform the user that the payment terms fields will be automatically filled.

    Search helps for OTP configuration

    Search helps are now available in the One Touch Processing “Verification of received data” configuration table.

    Web Application

    Assign action to field

    PROCESS DIRECTOR actions that are assigned to PROCESS DIRECTOR Accounts Payable fields in the field catalog are now executed in the Web Application.

    Display notes in table area

    With the new "pd_notes_in_detail" parameter, notes can now be displayed in the table area of the document detail, instead of in the additional information area.

    NullPointerException message when clicking Worklist node

    Fixed an issue that resulted in a Java “NullPointerException” error message when the user clicked a Worklist node and the relevant grid structure had not been properly generated or activated. Proper error messages are now passed from SAP and displayed when the document list view is called.

    WORK CYCLE

    Email for forward and query in recipient language

    When a document in workflow is forwarded or a query is sent from the Web Application, the email notification is now sent in the recipient’s language instead of the sender’s language. (EMEIC2674)
