Summary | Issue key | Issue Type | Description | Linked to | Config Needed | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Transfer pre advice - supplier information missing | VW-7219 | Design Change | When entering transfer orders, the system automatically creates a supplier record for the destination customer using the source supplier’s details and the supplier code = source customer code. The system looks for this when creating future transfer pre advices, in order to link correctly to the supplier record. However in customer’s own systems those suppliers are likely to have different codes, codes which do not match the warehouse’s customer codes, so when these supplier records are created (either by VCIS users, VW users, imported data at data take on etc) this presented two problems: # Supplier records are duplicated (those the customer creates with their codes & those the system creates with the warehouses customer codes) In order to prevent this a new field has been added to supplier maintenance to store the warehouse’s customer code, which is now used in the transfer order process. Existing records have been updated where possible. | VSUP-32816 | No | ||
Picking - bin allocation | VW-7042 | Design Change | Pre pick locator was introduced and now renamed to ‘Bin’ to avoid confusion with the locator allocated later on in the process. | No | |||

Ordering - mandatory collection fields | VW-6982 | Design Change | Collection fields were not mandatory when "order collection fields mandatory" was ticked in the collection group. Collection date, time, collection by are all mandatory. Vehicle registration is also mandatory, but not for external carrier collection groups. The same will be replicated to EDI orders in VEDI v4.7.0. | QVW-249 | No | ||
Pre advice - frozen reason code | VW-6950 | Design Change | In some scenarios trying to manually freeze stock upon receipt would result in a warning "contact the Vision helpdesk" when clicking on the "Final receipt All" button. The frozen reason code is now available on the pre advice screen, receipting details tab. | No | |||
Product maintenance - nicotine (vapes / vaping) | VW-7230 | HMRC | Initial changes allowing customers to store the nicotine milligrams per millilitre in product maintenance, intended for the Vaping Products Duty coming in 2026.

CDS - Removal of document status | VW-7134 | HMRC | Removal of document status code RE “To be used when declaration of a REX number is required“ following the release of CDS v4.3.0. | No | |||
CDS - CD paid after transfer / ownership change | VW-6510 | HMRC | When stock in customs duty suspense was transferred to another customer without having the customs duty paid, the 300 preference code was carried across to the new rotation but the Country Whence Consigned (CWC) became GB, this has recently changed with [https://visionsoftware.atlassian.net/browse/VW-7122|https://visionsoftware.atlassian.net/browse/VW-7122|smart-link]. When the new owner paid the customs duty, Bond CDS used to automatically force the U112 document (preference for imports from the EU) for EU CWC’s, in this case however because the country was set to GB, N954 (preference certificate) would be used and this combination resulted in the declaration being rejected, requiring the Bond CDS user to change the N954 document code back to U112. With [https://visionsoftware.atlassian.net/browse/VB-1113|https://visionsoftware.atlassian.net/browse/VB-1113|smart-link] the hard coding of U112 has now been removed, documents captured on the pre advice receipt are now used in the CDS declarations instead. With this change, transfers will now pass through the import documents to the new stock records created. Existing EU stocks in customer systems with the 300 preference will be linked to the EU-DOC import document.
