MoneyWorks

9.0.2r3 supplementary update for Datacentre/Gold 30 July 2021 — see end of notes for additional bug fixes

• New Rounding Mode option: For jurisdictions that mandate rounding half cents (for GST/VAT) “upwards” (technically, away from zero) you can now choose this rounding option instead of the default Bankers’ Rounding (round-half-to-even). Find this option in the GST/VAT Preferences for your document.

• Anomalous entries in GST report now also have a background highlight, to be more easily discerned by colourblind users
• Work around macOS High Sierra and later not reporting the correct language locale, resulting in Long Date format always being in English for customers in non-English locales. Note that working around this (intentional) Apple bug/feature has the unfortunate side effect of showing incorrectly localised sidebar headings in Open and Save dialogs within MoneyWorks for all locales (e.g. “SD8.1” instead of “Locations”). Apple appear to have fixed this bug in the upcoming Monterey release.
• Fixed an intermittent login crash for users with very long MoneyWorks Now usernames
• Optimised Sum Selection for Orders
• Asset Register: New assets that have zero bookvalue should be made active
• Asset Register: Allow new assets to be made non-depreciable
• Asset Register: New assets with DV depreciation couldn’t alway be depreciated monthly

Scripting and automation

• REST API change: REST import errors are no longer inappropriately reported as 500 Internal server error. These are now reported as status code 422
• MWScript: handler parameters that are not provided now have value NULL instead of throwing an error when accessed (allowing for optional parameters).
• MWScript: The Round function’s default rounding method is now the document’s rounding mode. Use the optional third parameter to force a specific rounding mode.
• Script Editor: reloading of dependent scripts improved
