Bennett/Porter & Associates, Inc. has been a Master Developer for
Best Software products since 1994, and has written many programming
enhancements for our clients. Although we make every attempt
to use the software as
it is delivered from the manufacturer, there are times when
a customized solution is necessary.
Sometimes it is a “tweak” to
the MAS 90 program, such as adding Custom Office fields to a Data Dictionary
to be
able to use the field on reports, and other times it might
be a fairly significant change to the software. We have developed utilities
to recalculate
Period to Date and Year to Date totals fields based on Invoice
History files, and have also created “one time” programs to
assist clients with mass changes they want to make after using the software
for
awhile.
If you think you might want a customized solution,
give us a call at 503-620-3484 and we’ll be happy to help you.
Below is a list of our MAS 90 / 200 software enhancements:
Alpha Numeric Divisions in Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable
Standard MAS 90 / MAS 200 software is limited to 99 Divisions because
the Division field is Numeric only. Our modification allows the use of
Alpha Characters in the Division field, so you are virtually unlimited
to the number of Divisions that can be used.
Bill Of Materials Extended Find Name
The Find Name has been modified to work like the Inventory Extended Descriptions
do. Any number of characters (or notes) can be added to each line of a
Bill.
UPS Worldship Link
This enhancement provides a two-way link with UPS Worldship.
Not only is the tracking number automatically copied to the
Sales Order Invoice
from Worldship, but also an e-mail notification that can automatically
be sent to the receiving party giving them the tracking number
of the shipment coming
their way.
This is accomplished by modifying the A/R Customer Maintenance
and Inquiry screens to include an e-mail address for the
Ship-To Address information. When an order is shipped, the e-mail address
defined in the
Customer’s Ship-To Address is copied to the shipping file, and UPS
sends the notification to that e-mail address containing their tracking
number. An “Edit E-mail” button has been added as well, to
allow changes to be made on the fly.
New fields have been added to the
Shipping Rate Maintenance screen which allow your customer
to determine what freight amount will be added to the invoice: None, Per
Package or
Flat Rate handling charges. Three new checkboxes have
been added to the Sales Order Total Tab: Consignment Billing, COD, and
E-mail Shipment Notification.

Quick Print Pick Button and Date Stamp
A button in the Sales Order Entry screen has been added to allow immediate
printing of the Pick Sheet for an Order. Two new fields have also been
added to the Sales Order, which show the date and time a Pick Sheet was
printed for an Order. These two new fields flow through to the Sales Order
History Inquiry as well.
Check For Customer Duplicate Purchase Order Number
During Sales Order Entry, a message is displayed if a duplicate Customer
Purchase Order exists, or has existed, for that same Customer.
Unique Invoice Form Per Customer
This enhancement adds the ability to assign a specific invoice format
to various customers so that during Invoice Printing, any customer with
a unique invoice format will have that form automatically used.
Oregon Payroll Mods
Oregon Form 132
This is a modification to automatically print
the information required on the Quarterly Oregon Form 132.
Oregon Workers Comp
This modification supports the calculation
of employer and employee deductions for the State of Oregon’s Workers
Comp Assessment based on Hours Worked (uses only “R” and “O” Earnings
Types in Payroll Earnings Code maintenance).
