Enhancements – FFL Compliance Manager  – Version 108.105.26578.1497

1.    FFL's with multiple physical locations can now designate a default bound book by location. This designated bound book will display by default in the acquisition, disposition, and both the e4473 and Paper 4473 workflows.

2.    We have put logic in place to accommodate more data in boxes 3, 19b, 25, 26, and box 27 of the 4473 form.  With this level of software, we shrink the font to fit more characters into each of those boxes. 

3.    The Paper 4473 workflow now supports denied and cancelled paper 4473 transactions. The new dropdown in the paper 4473 workflow supports transferred, cancelled, and denied options. Choosing 'Transferred' causes the paper 4473 UI to behave like it originally did and will create disposition records flagged as belonging to a transferred paper 4473. Choosing 'Denied' or 'Cancelled' will trigger a new flow that assigns a sequence number and creates records available for review in the 4473 review screen.

4.    We have put logic in place to accommodate more data in box 24 and box 28 in Section D of the 4473 form.  With this level of software we shrink the font to fit more characters into each of those boxes.  We now fit about fifty characters in manufacturer (box 24) and about thirty characters in caliber (box 28).

5.    The EZ Check Database has been updated with the latest available file from the ATF.

FFLCM Integration Users:

6.    Paper 4473's can now be matched with dispositions in the disposition queue.

7.    Inside transaction review, when editing a disposition, there is now a new option available to 'No Longer Send to Point of Sale'.  Selecting this will set the 'Send to POS' flag to 'N'.

8.    In the Review Transactions menu, for the disposition in question Click the Edit button, choose “No Longer Send to Point of Sale” to change the ‘Send to POS’ flag to N.

Enhancements – FFL Compliance Manager and Range Management – Version 104.26.19538.0

1.    Two new categories have been added to the ‘Pending 4473’s by Status’ quadrant.  This addition now gives insight into each combination of NICS status.

 2.    EZ Check data now includes the list of license holders through September, 2017.

 FIXES:

 3.    When adding attachments to acquisition or disposition records the ‘Save Attachment’ button was not enabled when selecting the desired attachment.  This issue is been resolved.

4.    In ‘Manage Roles’ when editing a role across multiple stores the store list continued to reset to the top.  This has been corrected.  This will be particularly appreciated by our customers with over 20 locations.

Enhancements – FFL Compliance Manager and Range Management – Version 103.9.18854.0

1.    For those of you using Epicor Range Management, we now integrate with Smartwaiver.  You will be able to search and view waivers from within Range Management for shooters that have waivers on file in Smartwaiver. 

2.    Similar to the Transfer Warnings that were introduced in the last upgrade, we now also present the user with a popup warning.  This popup warning will contain the same text as the regular warning page but serves as an additional alert for the user that must be dismissed before proceeding.

3.    There is a new option in user maintenance under the Authentication tab to allow a password to never expire.  Currently passwords expire in 90 days but this option would override that reset requirement.  While we are not endorsing the broad use of this option, we understand that some business will have situations where this may be useful.  One particular example could be in use with FFLCM Agent users. FFLCM Agent is used for automating local bound book backups and may be associated with a limited security, non-monitored user.

4.    We have put logic in place to accommodate more data in box 24 and box 28 in Section D of the 4473 form.  With this level of software we shrink the font to fit more characters into each of those boxes.  We now fit about fifty characters in manufacturer (box 24) and about thirty characters in caliber (box 28).

5.    This level also has an updated FFLCM Agent.  To download simply click the ‘2016-1 Compliance’ link under the Admin menu and click the download button.  Once downloaded, the install process will replace your current version automatically.  Additional help with installation is listed for you on the ‘2016-1 Compliance’ download page.

Fixes: 

6.    In areas of the system where date filters are used we improved the way our date filters work with UTC time related information.

7.    We fixed an issue in Transaction Review where the Transaction Type filter was not producing expected results.  Now we see correct data for whatever transaction type is selected.

Enhancements – FFL Compliance Manager – Version 102.14.18403.684

1.       This release allows for enhanced international support on supplier.   When selecting an acquisition type of “Receipt: Import” the system now allows for free-form text entry in the supplier country. We still require the country of manufacturer to be something other than USA before allowing free-form entry for importer name.

2.       Of particular importance to businesses with many locations is the enhanced Transfer Warning messages contained in this level.  The system is now able to help flag potential purchases of concern.  In Settings, you will now see the different levels of Transfer Warning that you can watch for.  Additionally, a new security setting now allows a user to see 4473 transactions from other branches.  This combination of feature and security will provide a user with additional guidance regarding the sale of a firearm in their branch. 

3.       In “Manage FFL” we now allow the ability to change the Store location on an existing FFL with bound book entries.  This is often helpful when bringing up a new location and managing the location relationships to the license and related bound books.

4.       For those of you utilizing the integration of an ERP System (Eagle) to the FFLCM application, several interactions to the Acquisition Queue have been completed.  These changes should clean up the interaction with the queue and make things easier for Acquisition Queue management.

Enhancements – FFL Compliance Manager – Version 9.1.16947.461

2.       We have added a Store Import functionality that will facilitate easy setup of multiple stores and their respective store hours.

3.       Multiple improvements related to the printing of 4473 documents.  

4.       Various platform stabilization enhancements.

Enhancements – FFL Compliance Manager – Version 8.0.16490.0

1.       If you are using FFLCM on a MAC, you now have a MAC version of the FFLCM Agent available to you.  The MAC operating system is now an available choice when you click Admin -> 2016-1 Compliance.

2.       In Transaction Review we now ask you to select your filters first and then click the Search button.  In previous versions each filter change would result in a refreshed results list.  This change will make your desired results appear much quicker and result in many improved search speeds throughout the application.

3.         Answers given to 18.a (Authority) and 18.a (Type) were previously together on a single line on the 4473.  Now they are each on their own line which allows for more information to be entered for both Authority and Type.

4.         In the Compliance Reports area we have moved the “View As” icons to the right of the screen and the “Reset” button to the left.  This should be a more natural interaction with FFLCM reports for those using an iPad or tablet.

5.         In the 4473 workflow we have done more in this version to alert the user to invalid data in date fields.  Previous versions allowed the user to get to the end of a 4473 before being notified that there was a problem with a date field several screens previous.

6.         When Open Dispositions is selected in the bound book report, Type I and Type II are automatically included.  This is a change from previous versions.  Selecting Open Dispositions will also include all open dispositions effectively ignoring any date range specified.

7.         This release contains several platform stabilization enhancements and bug fixes.
