025184: New HHT - MOVE_STOCK_CROSS_SITE option missing

1.   Overview

KCSL have enhanced new HHTs to allow for group moves between sites.

 

2.   Specification

Customer needs the ability to move stock items from one site to another.

Currently this is achievable via the Old HHTs by enabling the configuration option MOVE_STOCK_CROSS_SITE within the setup of the HHT website.

KCSL will add a similar option to allow for cross-site group moves.

 

3.   Configuration

An updated Khaos Control application and changelog will be provided with this functionality. Once the update is applied, please contact the Support Team to update the necessary HHT files.

A new HHT option called ‘Cross-site group moves’ can be found in the HHT [ Options | Options ] screen. To enable cross-site group moves, tick this option and click ‘Next’ to return to the HHT main screen.

 

4.   Usage

After applying the above Configuration, typical steps for usage would include the following.

 

With new ‘Cross-site group moves’ option disabled, group move functionality will not change.

With new ‘Cross-site group moves’ option enabled, stock can be moved between sites via the HHT.

 

An example usage with new option enabled:

  1. In the HHT, go to Group Moves.
  2. Input source location and click next.
  3. Input stock code and click next.
  4. Input quantity and click next.
  5. In the ‘Destination Location’, you may type/scan any unique location across any site.
    1. Non-unique location names will give a warning message, but you can still choose these locations using the ‘Location Lookup’ screen.
  6. You can also use the ‘Location Lookup’ screen to filter for specific locations as usual.
    1. Note that when ‘Cross-site group moves’ is enabled, the ‘Location Selection’ dropdown now also shows which site a location is in.
    2. This allows for users to pick from non-unique location names (e.g. an Arrivals location in multiple sites).
  7. Choose your location and complete group move as usual.

What's New v 8.248

Below are details of new features added in this version of Khaos Control

025401 Suppress Hidden Couriers from Dropdown Lists

025476 GFS - NI Changes - Windsor Framework

025506 Improve DLL handing

025506 Improve DLL handling more/again

1.               Overview

KCSL have enhanced how the KhaosControl.exe app stores and uses dll files.

 

2.          2.     Specification

DLL handling has been changed such that DLLStore folders are ignored, and the rules now are:

-A folder is created in %appdata%\KhaosControl with a name based on the contents of the DLLs, not the version number

-If this location can't be accessed, it falls back to a temp folder

-It should therefore be possible to run multiple dev versions (which contain different DLLs) simultaneously if necessary

-Whenever KC starts, it writes a timestamp file into the DLL folder, and only clears down folders where no file has been updated in the past 30 days, so old folder will be cleared, but not until they're actually unused

 

3.               Configuration

An update will be applied as a part of this development. No further configuration steps are required.

 

4.          4.     Usage

Once configured steps for usage are as follows:

Users should see no different in how things operate.
