User Reports Folder

 It is now possible to set a specific sub-folder for saving reports. The reports will be saved in a sub-folder below the reports directory. Annapurna will need to be started with runtime parameter

REPORTSFOLDER=roger

This will save the reports in "files"\reports\roger.

There is a special case

REPORTSFOLDER=user

In this case, the subfolder will be logged in Annapurna user name so if log in as Chris and 

REPORTSFOLDER=user is specified then the reports will be created in folder "files"\reports\Chris.

Annapurna 376 is needed to show the additional shapes.

Annapurna - checking delivery box

 Annapurna has a new module in order processing to allow a barcode reader to scan the order and which delivery box that the order has been placed in. If the order is placed in the incorrect box then an alert is raised.

Weekly Postage in Annapurna

 A new postage type has been created for those labs that will charge a weekly fee for postage.

There is a new module on the invoicing panel which will show the deliveries made for customers set to the weekly postage method between two dates. A delivery fee can then be entered for each customer. 

When the apply button is clicked then a wholesale order for the delivery is created for each customer which is then picked up in the subsequent invoice run.
