New Features - 11-2 Build 9

Welcome to Collect! Version 11.2 Build 9. This latest version has many new features and functionality. There are also many optimizations and enhancements to existing features.

Deny Multiple Signon

This new feature in Operator Security enables you to restrict your operators to signing into only one instance of Collect! at any given time. When this switch is ON and the Operator attempts to sign on more than once, this will generate an error message. The event will be written to the Application Log and Collect! will shut down.

Please refer to Help topic, Operator Security, for details.

What Is My IP Address

New option in System menu, Diagnostics enables you to find out your external IP address. This is very useful if you are operating behind a firewall and are attempting to set up a web site so that your clients can access the Web Host.

The What Is My IP Address option goes behind the scenes to the web site, www.whatismyip.com. Then Collect! displays the IP Address fetched by the site.

New Check Digit 2097

Two new commands in the Report Writer enable you to generate Australian Post Office Modulus 97 - 20 weight Check Digits. Use <cd2097> to output the field data as well as the check digit. Use <cd2097c> to output the check digit only.

Examples:

@de.ac<cd2097>
@de.ac<cd2097c>

We use the following weights to support up to 20 digit numbers: 20,19,18,17,16,15,14,13,12,11,10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1

Please refer to Help topic, How to Generate a Check Digit, for details.

Run NCOA Update In Scheduler

You can now update NCOA From File using the Scheduler. Configure a Scheduler Task to read your NCOA return file during off hours and automatically update your database. This is the same functionality that you can perform manually, using the File menu, Import/Export, Import NCOA option.

Please refer to Help topic, Scheduler Task, for details.

Optimizations

Enhancements were made to Access Rights, WIP List, Security, Display and Handling, Web Host, Import/Export and other areas.
