Summary
Muhasib ERP v1.0.2 introduces customer credit application during POS sales, improves Payment Terms handling, enhances purchase and sales reports, and adds new tools for managing payment account transactions.
This release also resolves several POS-related issues involving customer selection, customer payments, sale editing, fiscal year selection, and Payment Terms validation.
Additional improvements include purchase return visibility, customer balance information in the Single Sale Report, inventory sorting options, and minor refinements related to the updated workflows.
New Features
Apply Customer Credit During POS Sale
Users can now apply available customer credit while creating a POS sale transaction.
A new POS Apply Credit window has been introduced to support customer credit selection and application during the sale process.
Manage Payment Account Transactions
A new Manage Payment Account Transactions window has been added.
The window allows authorized users to manage the payment accounts and payment types associated with payment transactions.
Manage Payment Account and Payment Type
A supporting Manage Payment Account and Payment Type pop-up window has been added to the payment transaction management workflow.
This window supports the selection and management of payment account and payment type information for applicable transactions.
POS Improvements
Default Payment Terms for New POS Sales
The configured default Payment Terms are now automatically selected when creating a new POS sale.
This improves consistency and reduces the need to select the same Payment Terms manually for each new transaction.
Reset Payment Terms
A reset option has been added to the Payment Terms drop-down list in the POS Sale screen.
Users can now clear or reset the selected Payment Terms where required.
Payment Terms Transaction Validation
Payment Terms can now be selected only when the POS transaction type is:
- New Sale
- Edit Sale
This prevents Payment Terms from being selected in transaction types where they are not applicable.
Customer Selection During Sale Edit
The customer associated with an existing sale can no longer be changed while editing the sale.
This protects the consistency of customer balances, payments, credit application, and transaction history.
Reporting Improvements
Purchase Report
Purchase return transactions are now displayed below their related purchase entries in the Purchase Report.
This provides a clearer view of purchase activity and the effect of purchase returns on reported values.
Single Sale Report
Customer balance information has been added to the Single Sale Report.
Users can now review the applicable customer balance together with the sale transaction information.
Sales Report Corrections
Several minor calculation, display, and processing issues in sales reports have been corrected.
Inventory Improvements
Adjust Inventory Sorting
New sorting options have been added to the list view in the Adjust Inventory screen.
Inventory records can now be sorted by:
- Item ID
- Item Name
This makes it easier to locate and review items during inventory adjustment activities.
Fixes
Customer Selection During Sale Edit
An issue where the existing customer was not selected correctly while editing a sale has been resolved.
The customer originally associated with the sale now loads correctly when the transaction is opened for editing.
Customer Payment Processing
An issue affecting customer payment processing in the POS workflow has been corrected.
Payment Terms Selection
Payment Terms selection has been corrected so that the option is available only for supported POS sale transaction types.
Company Fiscal Year Selection
An issue where the fiscal year was not selected according to the active company has been resolved.
Muhasib ERP now loads the applicable fiscal year based on the selected company.
Minor Related Fixes
Additional minor issues linked to the updated POS, payment, reporting, purchase, and inventory workflows have been corrected.
