title8. Update of the Task internal supply date when changing the Task supply date- introducing new sync logic

Note: relevant only in systems in which the Task internal supply date is enabled.

The sync logic will determine how will the Task internal supply date be influenced when changing the Task supply date, or when changing any other date that the Task supply date is linked to.

Before changing the Task supply date, or any other date linked to the Task supply date, the user can select 1 of 2 options:

  1. Always sync- when the Task supply date is changed, the Task internal supply date will always follow

  1. Smart sync (checks if assigned)

Option #1- Always follow:

When setting the Task supply date to an earlier or later date, the Task internal supply date will:

Always follow (regardless if the task is assigned or not)

Option #2- Smart sync:

Backward:

When setting the Task supply date to an earlier date which is prior to the Task internal supply date, the Task internal supply date will:

·         Always follow (regardless if the task is assigned or not)

When setting the Task supply date to an earlier date which is till later than the Task internal supply date, the Task internal supply date will:

·         Follow if the task is not assigned

·         Not follow if the task is assigned

Forward:

When setting the Task supply date to a later date, the Task internal supply date will:

·         Follow if the task is not assigned

·         Not follow if the task is assigned

How to use:

The new 2 sync options are represented by 2 buttons that were added in most pages that display dates.

Before changing the Task supply date, or any other date linked to the Task supply date (Order supply date, Order internal supply date or Step date), select the necessary sync option to receive the required result (each button has a tool tip to explain its functionality):

System configuration also added to determine which of the 2 options will be the default sync method when navigating to any page.

Info

From: Administrator > Web administrator > Configuration > Settings > System preferences section > Task supply and Task internal supply dates sync method button:

In addition, please note that the connection button will no longer turn red when Task internal date is disconnected from the Task supply date:

The connection button will currently only turn red when the Task supply date is disconnected from the “Set date by” date its linked to (either the Order supply date, Order internal supply date or Step date).
