    If the specified order and price units for the material data are different, the calculation of the total price now takes the required conversion into account.

    Order confirmation fields automatically populated after confirming synchronized purchase order

    On synchronizing a purchase order from SAP to the portal and then confirming it, the created order confirmation document is now automatically populated with the following fields.

    •Net price
    •Short text
    •Unit of measurement
    •Manufacturer part number
    •Vendor material number

    New object types to split archive document type

    New object types, "OR_IN" and "OR_OUT", have now been created to split the attached archive document type according to the direction in which it needs to be synchronized.

    Log message displays document ID for duplicates

    The log message displayed after synchronization now displays the document ID when the processing fails because of the existence of duplicate documents.

    Improved framework used to process attachments when synchronizing order confirmations

    An improved framework is now applied to process the attachments during the synchronization of order confirmation documents.

    Documents synchronized even on addition of attachment or note

    The synchronization of documents to the portal has now been enhanced such that even if the document data itself is not modified, but the document is updated by the addition of an attachment or a note, it is still triggered to be synchronized.

    Display of bank account holder

    The name of the bank account holder (from the vendor master data) is also synchronized to the portal now.

    Connection test message enhanced

    On clicking the "Connection test" button, the corresponding pop-up displayed now contains an enhanced message about the connection that is being tested.
