A list of Properties where the Product Detail exists will then display.

The functionality for deactivating a Product Detail has not changed. 
When a Product Detail is deactivated at CP it will be deactivated in all Properties where it exists.
If the product detail is in use at one of the properties you will receive a warning before the product detail is made inactive.

- If the Account from the Item master record is allowed for the Outlet then it will be assigned as its Account (existing behaviour)
- If there is only one Account allowed for the Outlet it will be automatically assigned to the Item (new functionality)
- If there is more than one Account allowed for the Outlet but none of them is the Account assigned to the Item master record, then no Account will be assigned. The user should select the appropriate available Account (existing behaviour)

Customers Affected
Adaco customers who use the mobile Ordering app to create Purchase and Outlet Requisitions.
Release Note Info/Steps
When creating or updating Outlet Requisition Templates it is now mandatory to specify a Template Name.
This will ensure that when the Template is published to the Ordering app as a Market List, it will be easily recognisable within the app.
Fig.4 – Mandatory template name field in Outlet Requisition Template form.
Please note: For consistency, Template Name is used in the Outlet Requisition (was previously Comments) and Purchase Requisition (was previously Description) Template screens.
To more easily identify Outlet or Purchase Requisitions that originated in the mobile Ordering app, these Requisitions will be created with "Ordering app" as the description.
The description can be updated/overridden as required.
