News - Tryton Discussion: udono Fri, 01 Dec 2023 09:40:27 -0800

In the last month we focused on fixing bugs, improving the behaviour of things, speeding-up performance issues and adding new features for you.

Changes for the User

Accounting, Invoicing and Payments

We ease the former unique constraint on IBAN account numbers to allow now multiple equal deactivated IBAN account numbers.

When changing the company or party of an invoice, now the tax identifier are cleared when they are no longer valid.

On payment terms we now display the fields to define the payment term delta in the correct order of application.

Now it is possible to shorten or extend the fiscal year as long as all periods are still in its date range.

On refunds we now show the external payment ID from the payment provider.

Now we order payable/receivable lines by maturity date or move date.

Parties and CRM

The height of the street widget is now reduced to three lines.

New Releases

We released bug fixes for the currently maintained long term supported series
7.0, 6.0 and the penultimate series 6.8.

Changes for the System Administrator

Tryton now fully supports the update of database records via CSV data. The missing piece has been the handling for removing links in xxx2Many fields on update, which is done now. To unlink or remove existing xxx2Many target records, just exclude them in the CSV data to import. This way the imported data is similar to the stored records in the database.

Now the Tryton client cleans-up all temporary files and directories on exit.

Changes for Implementers and Developers

Now it is possible to specify a database statement timeout on RPC calls. The new timeout parameter on RPC calls helps to avoid costly database queries. The default value is 60 sec and can be modified in the configuration.

We included a new policy to require documentation update for modules when contributing new feature to an existing module. We’ve been applying such rule for one month, which already improved the documentation of some modules.

A new contrib group have been included on the heptapod repository. This includes some tools related to Tryton which provide web integration, filestore integration and even a module to send SMS. We are happy to include more similar projects in the group, feel free to contribute yours!
