UPS integrated shipping has the option for gif files, which are great for sharing with customers, as it can be used without a Zebra Printer. However, the file comes out horizontal, as shown in the below image. Is there a way to get the UPS Gif files to print out vertically, instead of the default horizontal? 

Hi!does acumatica have the functionality to add landed costs to a sales order? i couldn't find anything and the closest I could get was creating a non-stock item for the landed costs (in this case, tariffs) and added that as a new line on the sales order.  in our clients case, the landed cost is not added to the cost of the item.would love to hear what others are doing or if this is on the roadmap for added functionality thanks! Iqra

I’m trying to work on a GI to show my Inventory Manager all Warehouse locations that currently do not have inventory in them.  This is a way to see how many open locations exist, build out a storage capacity percentage, and help receiving pick locations to put inventory away. I’ve tried something as simple as looking at INLocationStatus and filtering out there QtyonHand = 0, but all that seems to be doing is showing me inventory IDs that had a reference there at one point, that is currently at 0.  I can look at that location and still see inventory allocated there in the system.I’m curious what I am missing.  Do I need to find a why to sum all inventory IDs as a location first, then show only the ones that equal zero? 

Hi! Long post alert… just want to say i appreciate your time in advance. I’d love to hear how others have handled configuring variations of a product without using manufacturing.Our client is a manufacturer’s representative that has expanded into distributing manufactured products from their warehouse. One of their manufacturers provides a base product that is always customized to the customer’s request—customers rarely, if ever, order the base product as-is.To streamline fulfillment, the client has identified common configurations of this product and now stocks those pre-assembled versions in their warehouse. These configurations involve minor modifications, such as swapping out the base pressure valve for an upgraded version. Additionally, the client stocks individual parts, which can also be sold separately.Item Setup Overview:Mfg. Base Model 1 – Not stocked, never ordered directly. Model1V1, Model1V2, etc. – Pre-configured versions of the base model. These items are set up as kits,

We write up 200-400 parts orders daily.  Some automated via ecommerce, some entered by our CSR team.  Some orders we have stock in the warehouse to ship, others we will be ordering the product into the warehouse and shipping it out when it arrives.Our current Shipment Creation process is a scheduled job that runs every 15 minutes for each of our 3 parts warehouses.  It runs against every order in the warehouse, but there are a couple hundred that are in some level of backordered status.  Most are truly “Backorder”, while others are in Open because they have no product available to ship (and that product is coming in either on linked POs, or on larger stock replenishment POs).I’m getting nasty looks from Acumatica recently because our ERP transaction count is way over the limit, and the majority of this is coming from the Process Orders screen.  Apparently (at least in 2023R1) when you run process orders/create shipment against 400 orders, you’re looking at at least 400 ERP transactions

The following post indicates that manifesting has been implemented for EasyPost with direct UPS/FedEx integration on the roadmap as of 2022.  I took that to mean that batching and manifesting works for UPS via EasyPost.UPS End of Day ReportingBut when you try to batch & manifest shipments from a Test integration with EasyPost, you get the error message “Unable to create a ScanForm from shipments bought from this carrier”.  I thought it might just be a Test system issue, but EasyPost Support provided the following information:Thank you for reaching out to EasyPost Support about End of Day/ScanForm/Manifesting with UPS. The integration that EasyPost has with UPS is a live-rated integration, which means when you create the shipment through EasyPost, EasyPost sends that information to UPS electronically and they return rates to us in real-time. Because of this, UPS is already aware that the shipment has been created and doesn't need further record. This is in contrast with other carrie

I’ve created business events that are “Triggered By Action”. There are 3 business events, and they MUST be done in sequential order, but they need to be seperate business events. I have named the three actions with the following format. 1 - XXXXX. 2 - XXXXX. and 3 - XXXXX. I would expect them to show up in this order. But they don’t. I have deleted and re-created the BE’s, thinking that maybe it mattered. It does not matter.I would expect them to appear….. 1 - 2 - 3 - 

Created test account on EasyPost site with api keys.  Created new carrier for UPS service.When creating Ship Via with new carrier there are no Service Methods to pick ?created more than one Easy Post account and apisWhat am I missing ?   

We want to automate the "Auth on ecomm, Capture in ERP" process. Is there a way to do this in Acumatica? 

For tasks, how can the owner determine who assigned the task to them?

A client has a large warehouse where the same item is held in different location depending on the UOM, ie PALLETs at the back, CASES in the middle and EACHs upfront. Sales UOMs are appropriate. Base qty is EACH. Decimals are not allowed. Pick on Location order or location priority does not work. If a customer orders a PALLET then the correct location must be found. If the customer orders a PALLET and a CASE then pick should be from two locations. With Wave picking there should be two pick lists. Is there any way to achieve this or a WMS add-on that will do it?

what would be the best method to identify the last time a customer places an order ?

How would I go about creating a widget on Shipping Clerks dashboard that identifies if a Shipment Confirmation has NOT been printed.  I would also like to prevent shipment from being confirmed until the shipment confirmation has printed.  What would be the best way to accomplish this.

I’ve been digging into some freight margin details lately, and I noticed that some Drop-Shipment Shipments (that are really PO Receipts) have a Freight Cost that is hitting our ARTran table. Does anyone know how that is calculated and why Acumatica automatically applies that (mystery) cost to the Invoice? In our scenario, our Drop-Ship POs are truly not drop-ships, we are purchasing services from a vendor, not physical products. There is no freight cost associated to these receipts, so how/why is that calculated? 

We’re trying to send a FedEx order with multiple boxes in one shipment, however, we keep getting this error. Is this a way to fix this issue? 

Hello all,Can we apply access rights or restrictions to the Notes?highlighted below.  

Has anyone ever come up with anything that "resembles" Fishbowl for inventory purposes?In regards to the color coding, red, yellow, green... ok to ship orders. I know you can do KPI's  but on an actual GI.

Hi all,We have a situation where so not want to discount based on customer specific pricing.We currently have a customer specific pricing based on Inventory as belowwhen we are raising sales order it is double dipping giving discounts on $49.72 which we don't want.If we remove the customer special pricing then then it picks $918 and gives 93.50 which is correct in other cases but just not when it comes to specific pricing for customer.Is there a way to avoid double dipping, not applying discounts when it is customer special pricing?  

In our system, we utilize sales price breaks (1, 10, 14, 28, 42), we are getting rid of an old price break (56). How can we get rid of that price break when updating pricing using the sales price worksheet or another method? Prefer not manually as we have 3,000 SKUs to update for pricing.Thank you.

We have some purchase receipts that have been entered and released incorrectly. I see that the best way to handle is a return, but by doing so, they sit Open unless we move forward and create a erroneous Bill and Debit adjustment. Is there a way to pair just the receipt and the return without effecting AP?  I also would like to suggest a way for an administrator to correct a receipt/bill - if it is in the same financial period and unpaid - even if that has to be administrator access. Being new to acumatica, it seems odd that some of these transactions cannot be edited easily.

Is there a way to correct a Purchase receipt when it has been released? What if there was a typo, how can we adjust the quantities received?

Is there an existing integration to AutoCrib and Acumatica? 

We have a GI-based Import Scenario to change the sales account on the sales order lines that says it’s completing, but is not actually making the change. I have tried changing different things (looking for line number rather than inventory id & vice versa, or selecting/deselecting commit on different fields), and cannot get the change to actually happen. What am I missing here?  

We recently did a major re-organization with our inventory in our warehouse.  We physically and electronically transferred thousands of parts to new bin locations.  We changed the default bin location along with processing 1-step transfers to the new bin location.  Everything is good here.What we’ve noticed though, is when we create Physical Counts on our inventory, the system pulls the “old” bin location into the count even though there isn’t a quantity in that bin location, nor is it set up as default location.  This causes a lot of extra data entry because users have to enter a count of zero in these bin locations.  Is there a way to eliminate these unnecessary bin locations from being listed on the count?  It’s seems like Acumatica is listing these old bin locations because there was a quantity stored there previously.  Thanks 

We have encountered an issue we can’t seem to find the root cause of. SO has a Prepayment on it. Invoice is generated from ScreenId=SO3010PL (we attached to SO items to it there). Shipment is Auto Generated (Since we started from Invoice screen). Go back to the SO - it is closed but the prepayment doesn’t apply to the invoice
