- Move ''Manifest Report by' groupbox to next line and place the radio buttons horizontally.
- Add a new group box "Delivery window adjustment for 'same time'" in above vacant location.
- Add two  +/- numeric controls labelled 'From mins adj' and 'To mins adj'  defaulted to -20 and 10.
- Validation should ensure that the difference between these two are >= 30.
During the system updates, we need a way to be sure which group is an administrator account, to setup access to new features, new enquiries etc so that customers know they exist.

When systems are first setup, an administrator group is created by default. Some customers change the name of this and later may not use it as an administrator group.

Changes will be implemented to ensure that there is always a top level administrator group which our accounts will be linked to, as well as the default customer administrator accounts and this will not be able to be changed.

Unprinted Manifests Report - Reasons

Bug

2.

3.1

The 'on time' calculation used to determine if a delivery is on time (used in the OTIF report & stats TV board) is too strict and will be changed as follows:
 - For fixed delivery bookings (where the from time and to time are the same), deliveries will be considered 'on time' if they are confirmed before the time or up to 10 minutes after.
 - Other deliveries will also be considered on time if they are confirmed 10 minutes either side of the delivery window.
 - If the delivery has a reason code with responsibility 'Customer no fault' (was 'other') or 'Transporter no fault' (new) then these will also be considered on time.NoNoVDIST-855Pallet charging - lines with 1 CPPIssue2.0.4Delivery lines with 1 CPP are calculating 5 cases as 5 pallets for charging resulting in incorrect delivery charges. 
If the CPP is 0 or 1 then we'll use the system default for the calculation.
It must be completely transparent to users how the invoice cases / invoice pallets / and total charge are calculated.VSUP-6050

General

Due to changes made to the Unprinted Manifests report the reasons are not showing correctly as they did before, it’s showing the same reasons for all deliveries within the manifest, preventing users from easily finding problem deliveries which are holding up the automated manifest prints.

A change will be made to introduce a new field to store the correct proportionate value of the line when compared to the delivery total, which would show 1 or 100% in the example above.
