Resolved issues

Multienterprise Information Network Tower, solution version 18.1.0

The following issues are resolved in this release. The prefixes are for internal TraceLink tracking purposes and do not mean anything to customers.

ID	Interface	Issue Description
CMCP- 42289: Missing Warehouse Identity Fields and Reference Types in Warehouse Shipping Order	Web UI	Warehouse Shipping Order transactions did not support certain warehouse identity fields and license-related reference types identified during the ICS 940 gap analysis, preventing these values from being processed correctly. To fix this issue, the Warehouse Shipping Order canonical model and standard picklists are enhanced to support missing ICS 940 warehouse identity fields and reference types, including updates to inbound mappings and the B2B transaction identifier picklist. This issue has been resolved.
CMCP- 42901: Missing Required Shipment, Storage, and Packaging Fields in Warehouse Shipping Advice	Web UI	Warehouse Shipping Advice transactions did not support additional shipment, storage, and packaging fields required for integrations. To fix this issue, new fields are added to the Warehouse Shipping Advice canonical model to support additional shipment, storage, and packaging information. This issue has been resolved.
CMCP- 42902: Missing Required Shipment and Packaging Information in Order Status	Web UI	Order Status transactions did not display shipment, storage, and packaging information, limiting visibility into key logistics details. To fix this issue, shipment and packaging fields are added to the Order Status transaction to display logistics information at the appropriate header, line item, and packaging levels, including Manufacturing Date, Storage Condition, Pallet Number, Dimensions, Cases, Gross Weight, and Net Weight. This issue has been resolved.
CMCP- 42903: Missing Required Logistics and Traceability Information in Warehouse Shipping Order	Web UI	Warehouse Shipping Order transactions did not support the shipment, storage, weight, dimension, and traceability information required for logistics work flows. To resolve the issue, new fields are added to the Warehouse Shipping Order transaction to support shipment, storage, weight, dimension, and traceability information. These fields enable users to create Warehouse Shipping Orders in the MINT UI and share them with logistics partners through both the MINT UI and SAP IDoc. This issue has been resolved.
CMCP- 42905: Missing Line-Level Tax Mapping in Invoice	Web UI	Inbound X12 Invoice transactions did not support mapping of line-level tax information from the TXI segment. To resolve the issue, the standard X12 Inbound Invoice transform is updated to map line-level tax information from the TXI segment, ensuring tax details are processed at the invoice line level. This issue has been resolved.
CMCP- 42912: Missing Shipment and Manufacturing Information in Invoice	Web UI	Invoice transactions did not support several shipment, logistics, manufacturing, and reference fields required for invoice workflows. To resolve the issue, the Invoice data model and inbound and outbound mappings are enhanced to support shipment, manufacturing, and reference fields, enabling end-to-end processing of the new data. This issue has been resolved.
CMCP- 42932: Missing SAP IDoc Mappings for Invoice Data	Web UI	Required invoice fields did not have SAP IDoc mappings, preventing consistent processing of Invoice data. To resolve the issue, the required Invoice fields are mapped in the SAP IDoc by using TDLINE for tare weight, KNREF for shipping locations and plant codes, and E1EDP26 (QUALF=001) for unit prices, without requiring schema changes. This issue has been resolved.
CMCP- 43141: Missing Required Fields for cXML in Invoices	Web UI	Invoice transactions did not support the localization, tax description, and dual-currency fields required for cXML Invoice processing. To resolve the issue, the Invoice canonical schema, subtypes, and JSLT are updated to support localization (xml:lang), tax descriptions, and dual-currency fields (alternateAmount and alternateCurrency), enabling compliant mapping of cXML Invoice data. This issue has been resolved.
CMCP- 43174: Missing Required Logistics Attributes in Advance Ship Notice	Web UI	Advance Ship Notice transactions did not support the summary, logistics, and routing fields required for integrations. To resolve the issue, the Advance Ship Notice canonical schema and mappings are updated by adding support for summary type, value, and unit of measure entries, header-level logistics fields (Delivery Order Number, Sales Order Number, and Seal Number), and updated routing sequence code values. This issue has been resolved.
CMCP- 43183: Missing Required Tax Consolidation Data in Invoice	Web UI	Invoice transactions did not support the tax consolidation (TAXCON) information required for EDIFACT Invoice processing. To resolve the issue, the Invoice data model is updated to support TAXCON message details, enabling processing of tax consolidation information, including VAT breakdowns, as part of EDIFACT Invoice transactions. This issue has been resolved.
CMCP- 43327: Missing Required Tax and Regulatory Fields in Invoice	Web UI	Invoice transactions did not support the regulatory, product, and tax fields required for invoice processing. To resolve the issue, the Invoice canonical schema is updated by adding GST Number, Drug License Number, and Warehouse Identifier fields, introducing HSN Code as a line item product code type, and adding support for CGST and SGST tax types. This issue has been resolved.

Multienterprise Information Network Tower, solution version 18.0.0

The following issues are resolved in this release. The prefixes are for internal TraceLink tracking purposes and do not mean anything to customers.

ID	Interface	Issue Description
CMCP-39696: Purchase Order Acknowledgment Inbound Validation Failure for processingFunctionTypeCode Field	Web UI	An issue was identified where Purchase Order Acknowledgment (PO ACK) inbound transactions failed validation because certain "processingFunctionTypeCode" enumeration values were not supported during IB processing. To fix this issue, the transformation logic is updated to avoid direct mapping of the "processingFunctionTypeCode" field. Instead, the values are now handled through "customFields", enabling successful validation and processing of PO ACK transactions. This issue has been resolved.
CMCP-41595: Unit Price Data Not Processed in Canonical During File Ingestion	Web UI	An issue was identified where Unit Price data provided in inbound files was not being processed in the canonical model. This occurred because the canonical logic was hard coded to support "pricingType = NET" only. To fix this issue, the canonical logic is updated. Additional field enhancements and new field support are also introduced to improve pricing data processing flexibility across multiple use cases. This issue has been resolved.
CMCP-42484: Transaction Reference Identifiers Not Fully Visible in MINT UI	Web UI	An issue was identified in the MINT subtype mappings where certain transaction reference identifiers were being filtered, resulting in incomplete visibility of identifiers in the MINT UI. To fix this issue, the MINT maps and system specifications are updated. This issue has been resolved.
