What's New
- Enhanced Upgrade Process: The rebuild window is now more clear to understand and easy to use, and the process is more reliable.
- Payment Monitor: Payment monitor allows to track the invoice payment status. With it it is possible to know whether invoice is fully paid or not. If not then how much has been receipt, how much is pending, when is the next payment due date and the amount that is expected to be received on that date.
- General Ledger Report Review: General Ledger financial report is hugely enhanced with filters and grouping by accounting dimensions and with improvements in pdf, html and xls output formats.
- Revised Search Dialogs: Search dialogs in the most important transactional windows like 'Sales / Purchase Order / Invoice', 'Goods Receipt', 'Bank Statement', 'Business Partner', 'Product' etc. have been improved adding new filter fields.
- Read Only Posted Documents: Transactional windows has been modified to make read only the fields that cannot be edited depending on the status of the document. The user can only modify fields values of the document he is allowed to.
- Document Type Defaults: The document type default can be defined for every window. Apart from selecting the available document types for every window you can select what type will be the default document type for every window.
- Modularity Validations: A number of new validations related to namespacing in modulularity, to avoid clashing.
- Openbravo ERP is now available as an Amazon Machine Image (AMI). Check the Professional Subscription Manual or the Openbravo ERP Installation for installation details of the Professional and Community editions.

Known issues
- When installing or uninstalling an industry template, warnings may happen in the "DAL initialization" part of the rebuild with this message: "The following rows were changed after your last update.database or export.database". This warnings should be discarded, as they are completely harmless.
- Sometimes, when applying an Industry Template or upgrading from 2.50MP10 to a higher 2.50 MP, the following error might happen:
This error is actually an error in the window itself (the user interface), and not an error in the build process. This means that the build in fact went fine (provided there were no additional errors). If this is the only error shown after the build was completed, the steps you should follow are this:
First run
ant smartbuild
in the command line. After that, restart your Tomcat server, and everything should be fine (the Industry template should be active, or the new version of Core should be working and ready to be used).
