AdMAX 10.67 (March 25, 2015)

LOUT Insertion Order Form
 
Added the option to include the following in the form

• Advertiser_Payment_Terms:  The description of the payment terms
• Ad_Total_Cost:  The total price of the ad
• Ad_Payment_Amount: The total prepayment amount
• Ad_Amount_Due: The amount owed on the ad (total cost - prepayment)

 
Aging Report

Modified the aging report so that if less than the maximum number of aging buckets are displayed on the report, the last bucket is not repeated multiple times in the file export.

Quick Order Entry Interface

Added support for position requests on a page. (These are the options available form the Ad Position pull down list from the Extra tab in AdMAX Order Entry.)

An ad category with an overriding unit of measure defined can now be selected after selecting the first product on the ad. This sets the unit of measure used for all future product / ad category selections on that one ad instance.

The Interface between AdMAX and CAS was enhanced to support passing preprint information.
 

AdMAX 10.66 (March 19, 2015)

Insertion Order Form (ioform)

Added additional formatting options for the header and body of the form in LOUT.
 
Credit Card Approval Process

This process was changed so that it will no longer replace the payment description with Credit Card Approved when the card is settled.
 
EtearAdBoss Interface

If the page has been dumped, send it to eTearAdBoss even if we don't have a page number yet. This way it can be caught in the eTearAdBoss verification step.
 
Ad List Report

Modified the size of the Extra Fields list window so that all of the values could be displayed without having to scroll up or down in the list.

Order Entry

Added a procedure call for the order entry tabs to validate the fields when switching to a new tab. This should prevent the ad status box from remaining visible when clicking on the DISPLAY tab.
 
Salesperson Report

The salesperson report that can be produced in Sales Maintenance will now only show active sales people.
 

AdMAX Parameters

Added two new parameters on screen 14, Order Entry Options.

• Treat Class Line Bill Depth as as Single Column  y/n
• Treat Class Line, Line Count as a Single Column  y/n

    
The flag has no effect on single column ads, or any display ads. It only comes into play when the ad is a classified line ad with a style that uses multiple columns.
 
When composition calculates the billing depth of an ad, it calcuates it as if the ad was a single column. For example a 7 line (1 inch) deep, 2 column wide ad would have a billing line count of 14 lines and 2 inches.
 
When pricing by line, this is convenient as it allows you to use the same rate for a one column as as a two column ad, but when pricing by ad area this can cause a problem as the area is calculated by the product of the billing  depth and the number of columns.
 
This flags will be initialized as Y for line count, and N for Bill Depth. This changes historic behavior which assumed Y for both values.
 
 
Aging Report

Modified the aging report so that it will now display the headings for each aging bucket when exporting to a file as opposed to the bucket number.
 
Address Line, Salesperson ID, Credit Code and Last Payment Summary will also always be included in the export.
