  • 1.  JC - copy customer address into new jobs

    Posted 07-20-2023 14:00

    Customer upgraded from v2018 to v2023, and complained the customer address wasn't showing up in new jobs.  I checked their old v2018, and it did work there... no scripts or enhancements (that I could find)... but on my local v2018 the address does not copy to new jobs.

    I wrote a script to do the field copy (so the customer is happy), but I'm curious if there is a hidden option / checkbox somewhere that might have changed during the upgrade (and is off by default in EEC)?

    Whoa, this may be a reason for me to stick with 2022 for a huge JC upgrade I'm working on right now.  When we started this back in April (LOTS of complicated Crystal Reports done by someone else - sometimes it's really hard to follow someone else's logic) I told them it would be 2022 until 2023.1 was out before they went live (Aug 21).  But...  I do see that my 2023 EEC has addresses, but it would have just upgraded for 2022.

    I tested in out of the box version 2016, 2018, 2019, 2022, and 2023 with EEC company. The only version where the address came over when I added the customer was 2018.  I wonder if the change to business logic in 2018 pulled the address in automatically Maybe someone complained and Sage took it out? I think 2018 is where Sales order to job cost integration was added also, maybe that is related somehow. I don't see any setting that might control it one way or the other.

    Thanks for testing.  It's inconsistent then... good to know.

    The script is pretty simple, in case anyone needs it.
