Back Download 5


Any users who have already upgraded to Version 6 should NOT download or install any Version 5 updates.  Information about Version 6 can be located on the Version 6 web page.

Version 5.11 M will be the last update release for AVM-2000 version 5.  Users will need to upgrade to Version 6 to obtain any new program features or modifications.

The Version 5 Upgrade may be downloaded from the Download 5 web page.

Users who own version 5 and have a current Annual Maintenance Agreement in place may still download Version 5.11M for a limited time.

Version 5.11 M released Mar-06-2007

bullet337 Form, Rev. 10-06 - modified the behavior of the "Date" block on the back page of the 337 at the top of Block 08.  This date field was originally programmed to use the Conformity Date, and now instead uses the "337 Date" from the Main page of the 337s form.  This modified behavior is consistent with the Date used at the top of Block 08 on the 337 Form, Rev. 12-88.
bulletEnvironment > Date - fixed problems where users with a date format other than American were experiencing problems using the italic pop-up calendar date selector.  This was especially a problem for the Work Order Closed Date as users were forced to use the pop-up calendar to choose their Close Date.
bulletOther - miscellaneous custom modifications

Version 5.11 L released Feb-13-2007

bullet337 Form, Rev. 10-06 - completed modifications to include the newest printout for FAA Form 337, Rev. 10-06, in AVM-2000.  Print choices still exist to print the 337 form Rev. 12-88 as well, in the event that an "old" 337 may need to be printed.  

*  Some new fields/choices were added such as Aircraft Series, a new choice for 6 B - "Certified Maintenance Organization", a new choice below 6 D - "Extended range fuel per 14 CFR Part 43 App. B", and a new choice for 7 Approval BY - "Maintenance Organization".  These choices only affect printouts for form Rev. 10-06.

*  A new Series field was added to the Aircraft Database > Main page, and if populated, will be auto-filled into the new 337 Series field when the Tail # is selected.

*  Some fields left in the 337 form are no longer used on the new form Rev. 10-06 and a notation is provided on the screen to indicate this.  These fields will only work for printouts for form Rev. 12-88.

*  Some changes were made in the 337 Configuration to accommodate changes on the new form.

*  Formatting changes were made to the Address auto-fill for Registration Address and Block 6 A - Agency per the new form Rev. 10-06.  1 line prints with the street address, 1 line with the City and State, and the last line with the Zip Code and Country.  This change will only affect new 337 forms created.  (NOTE:  If Block 6 A - Agency is auto-filled, the Country used comes from the main Company Address configuration under Admin > Global Config > General > 1 Company Information)

*  Users with 337 Templates may need to update their Templates to accommodate the new form requirements, in particular, Block 6 A - Agency Address.

Specific questions about the effective date for use of this new form, and how to properly fill out the form, etc., should be referred to your local FAA person.

Version 5.11 K released Feb-09-2007

Version 5.11H released Jan-09-2007

bulletWO Convert to Invoice  -- fixed problem where all aircraft data was not being copied over to the Invoices  (Make, Model & Serial # were missing)

bulletWork Orders > Main > Close or Convert buttons -- added new function to stop users from Closing or Converting a Work Order if any other user has the Work Order open on their computer. This will prevent errors where the Close Date and/or Invoice # were not being saved in the WO Main Page, etc.
bulletWork Orders - Multi-User Task Protection - new configuration option allows users to "lock" individual Work Order tasks to prevent more than one user from editing a task at one time. This will help significantly with data loss by keeping one user from overwriting the work of another user. See Admin > Global Config > Work Orders > General > Main > Protect against multiple users. Users can still work on different tasks in the same Work Order, or make entries from the WO Quick Labor and WO Quick Parts forms into a task that another user has open. 
bulletInvoices > Browse - now warns user with text "Needs Calc" in the TOTAL column if a Work Order has been converted to an invoice and the tax calculations have not yet been done on the Invoice. Viewing the invoice, or printing the invoice, will calculate the taxes, and make the TOTAL display on the Browse page.
bulletInvoices > Print Range of Invoices - improved to now completely pre-process and re-calculate all Invoices before printing. This will prevent an isolated problem where some users had invoices in the print range that did not print the taxes.
bullet8130's - now allows Dual Release in Block 19
bulletWO Quick Labor > Browse - fixed intermittent problem with the Delete button on the Browse page. AVM-2000 sometimes did not let users delete labor entries.

bulletAircraft Database - added new program code to prevent users from adding a BLANK tail # record

Version 5.11b - no public release

Version 5.11a released Jul-19-2006

bulletWork Orders > Browse - Added new "highlight" function to give good visual cue on status of Work Orders.  New "legend" button added to page to assist users with color scheme.  YELLOW = Open, GREEN = Closed, NOT Invoiced, WHITE = INVOICED.  Also added new column to far right of grid for Invoice #.

bulletP & E's > Main > Print > Shop and Vendor Copies - fixed intermittent problem where TERMS did not always print on these PO printouts.
bulletTransactions > Vendor Checks > Clear P & E's page - added new column for Pending Payments.
bulletCHANGE buttons - added text warnings to "Change" screens (Customers, Vendors, Aircraft, etc.) that all other users should be OUT of AVM-2000 when completing a change such as these to avoid problems where any open records may not get properly "changed".

Version 5.10z released Jun-21-2006

bulletDatabases > Inspection Items Master - Added program code to prevent users from making duplicate entries.
bulletDatabases > Inspection Items Master - Added new "CHANGE" button to allow users to change the name / description of an existing Master Item.  This name change carries over and updates the Item name for every individual entry assigned to each aircraft for the "changed" Inspection item.

bulletWO Quick Parts / ATC - NEW - checkbox was added to form to allow users to "look up" which WO # the employee is currently logged into; or if un-checked, the WO # does not get looked up.  Also fixed refresh problem where WO # did not update with each new Ecode entered
bulletPrint to File - Limit Email list to Code - fixed problem where the "limit to" function was not restricted to exact matches on the code.  (Example:  Limit to CHTA would also show email addresses for CHTA1 and CHTAN, etc.)

Version 5.10U released Apr-19-2006

bullet

bulletInvoices > Print > 2 Range of Invoices (for Print Direct to Default Printer) - Fixed error from version 5.10S where printing a range of invoices would incorrectly print the same name and address on every invoice in the range
bulletWork Orders > Details > Update Aircraft Records - Modified the pop-up confirmation window for this function so that users will see a better picture of what the changes to the Aircraft records will be.
bulletRight-click for Phraser - Modified - Now stops users from highlighting a block of text, and then overwriting the highlighted text with a Phrase. This will prevent problems where users would inadvertently overwrite existing text with a Phrase and would be unable to "Undo" the Phrase insertion. Users will now need to delete any unwanted text before inserting a phrase.

bullet

Work Orders > Main page > Print - when WO's are configured for SINGLE appliance use only -- fixed intermittent problem where sometimes the task printouts would not correctly display the FAA Repair Station text

bullet

Optional Label Printing Module - fixed problem from 5.10Q where label printing would only print a single label; even when multiple labels where selected to print. (Note: By fixing this issue, another issue has re-surfaced where SKU labels cannot be printed from the Print Preview window directly in the Inventory module. SKU labels printed directly in the Inventory module must be printed using the Print Direct to Default printer option. CTI is still trying to find a fix for this issue.)

Version 5.10R released Mar-09-2006

bullet

Warranty Apps and Warranty Claims - fixed intermittent problem where some users would experience a message on opening the Warranty Claim or Warranty Applications forms: "Before leaving this window, changes were made but not saved. You can either cancel these changes or make additional changes and then save the record." This would then cause the user to be unable to edit any existing records or add any new records

bullet

Invoices > Printing - fixed problem for 5.10Q users only where the "Terms" was not printing correctly on all invoices.

Version 5.10Q released Mar-06-2006

WO Quick Labor

bullet

Work Orders > Reqs - added new functionality to WHS field for qualified drop-down list. Now users must choose their WHS from the drop-down list rather than type the WHS manually.

bullet

PO Quick Reqs - added new functionality to WHS field for qualified drop-down list. Now users must choose their WHS from the drop-down list rather than type the WHS manually.

bullet

Inventory > Label Printing - fixed problem where previewing a label on-screen would cause a "Variable 'pnum' not found error.

bullet

Invoices > Taxes - addressed issue where under certain, specific conditions, taxes were not calculated on every invoice. This problem only occurred when an Invoice Type was not selected, and the Tax Configuration was not completely and properly filled out. Users are now prevented from printing or posting an invoice unless a Type is selected to prevent this problem from occurring.

Version 5.10P released Feb-21-2006

bulletDatabases > Aircraft > Inspection Data > Inspection Items Management - MODIFIED -- Made changes to how Inspection Items are managed in the Inspection Items grid list.  Previously, all items were added / edited directly in the grid using the EDIT button to turn grid editing ON or OFF.  New functions shut down all editing in the grid, making it Read Only.  Users now get a pop-up editing form to enter all data for an inspection item.  All fields of information still remain visible in the grid as they always have been.  These functions were modified to prevent problems with selecting and editing items in the grid.  The Help > AVM-2000 Help and the Open User's Guide (PDF) were updated to reflect the changes made.
bulletAdmin > Global Config > Work Orders > 3 Other Types > Default - FIXED - Configuration option to mark one item as the default was not working.  Now users who have selected a default item in the Other Types will have the WO Other line items automatically populate with the default entry.  Each entry may still be modified manually by choosing a new item from the WO Other "Type" drop-down. 

Version 5.10 O - no release

Version 5.10N released Feb-14-2006

bulletAdmin > Global Config > General > 2 Miscellaneous > Navigation & Advisories > Find Most Recent - NEW -- Option available to locate "most recent" (newest) entries in Browse > Search fields, instead of first (oldest) entry in the list. Example:  Company CHTA has 1200 Work Orders in your Work Orders database; some dating back to 2001.  When this option is turned "on", the search field for Customer Code = CHTA will locate the newest, most recent Work Order in the list instead of the first Work Order they had done in 2001.  This works in Work Orders, Invoices, P & E's, Log Books, etc. for Customer Codes, Vendor Codes, Tail #'s, etc.  
bulletEmail Error to CTI - FIXED - intermittent problem where auto-generated text was incorrect for emailing error information to TangoWare.
bulletGeneral - NEW - Warning text for messages "This record has skipped ID #'s . . ." modified to include text that another user may have created and not saved a new record. (This issue occurs in multi-user versions of the program only.) Lets the user know that there may not be a real problem with the numbering scheme -- there may just be a user who started a new record in that module and has not yet saved that new record. Users should be reminded to save all new records as soon as they are created to avoid this problem in multi-user installations.
bulletGeneral - NEW - Automatic Font Installation - Startup of <Product_Name> verifies that all fonts required by <Product_Name> are installed at the workstation. If a font is found to be missing, the font is automatically installed for the user.
bulletGeneral  -  Help files - NEW -- added new "Update Release Notes" section to the User's Guide and on-line CHM Help so that users have quick and easy access to the list of new items included in the updates.
bulletGeneral - Contact Grids - Fixed - problem with r-click for phone dialer not working properly in 5.10m
bulletGeneral Ledger - Fixed - problem where copying an existing POSTED adjustment also copied the POST DATE information, making the new adjustment un-editable and un-postable
bulletP & E Config - NEW - increased entry fields to hold 9 digits for PO, RO & RGO auto-incrementing numbers
bulletWO's > Exchanges & Repairs - NEW - increased Description field to hold 35 chars (similar to Inventory > Description field).
bulletWO's > Labor pg - NEW - when "Hide Employee Hrly Costs" (Admin > Global Config > Work Orders > General > Main) is turned on, the "Profit" Total field no longer displays on-screen. (This protects more data and forces the Labor page to behave more like the Tasks page totals.)
bulletWO's > Tasks > Add > Move (Transfer) Task - MODIFIED - now checks that no one is logged into the ATC (Time Clock) in the task being moved. The user is stopped and will not be allowed to move the task if an employee is logged into ATC in the task being moved.
bulletWO's > Equip & Parts - NEW - when a task has been marked as a Template, users will now have the option to deplete Inventory or not on the Equipment or Parts pages of the Work Order. A new checkbox option for "This task is a template, deplete Inventory" can be found at the top of the Equip & Parts pages, only for tasks marked as templates. This allows users to set up a "dummy" task Template without affecting on-hand Inventory; or users may choose to deplete the items from Inventory if the task is a "real" task and not just a "dummy" template.
bulletWO's > Main pg - FIXED - problem where users could not manually type 6 characters into the Customer Code field; they were forced to choose 6-digit codes from the italic pop-up list.

Version 5.10M released Dec-22-2005

bulletInventory Kitting - NEW Module -- a new function is available to "kit" inventory parts together to create your own new inventory parts.  Available for serial or non-serial items.  Inventory parts used to create the kit will be depleted from Inventory upon Kit creation.  The newly created kit part will be added into the Inventory as a new part.  Options and choices available for cost and list pricing, inventory control of BOM (Bill of Materials) items and more.  Create a set of Master Kits for ease of use, or copy existing kits to easily create new kits.  Picklists may be printed for pulling BOM (Bill of Materials) items from your stock.
bulletInventory Tax Exempt - NEW - added choices to make individual inventory part #'s exempt from tax when the part is invoiced.  See the Databases > Inventory > Other page, and see the Invoices > Parts & Equipment grid (new fields added - scroll to the right).  Monthly tax reports note exemptions from tax.  Some inventory reports may be restricted to tax exempt items.  See the Help > AVM-2000 Help menu choice for more specific information about this new feature.  This function may be used to exempt items from Tax 1, Tax 2, Tax and/or Tax 4.
bulletInventory (when WareHouses in use) - NEW - function available for serialized WHS transfers allows users to transfer a part from one part # + WHS  combination (ie:  ABCD ^ RPR) to an entirely new part # + WHS combination (ie:  ABCD-1 ^ REB).
bulletInventory (when Batches in use) - NEW - added new button to Inventory > Batches page to make a Batch part become "Standard", so that the user can then make the part into a Serialized part if necessary.
bulletPO Receive / Inventory - NEW - Price Averaging for Cost & List values may be turned on for PO Receipts of standard (non-serial, non-batch) inventory items.  This function is turned OFF when you first update your AVM-2000, and must be turned on in the Admin > Global Config > Inventory > 1 General > Main page if you wish to use it.  
bulletInventory > Serials & Batches - NEW - increased the field length / viewing size of the Notes field 
bulletWork Orders Task Statuses - NEW - configuration option available to populate the Work Order > Details page's Current Status with your own list of statuses.  Delete statuses not used to shorten the list, or add new ones to better organize your jobs.  See the Admin > Global Config > Work Orders > 5 Task Status Types for more information.  Note to users with Security:  This is a new menu option, and applicable users will need to granted access to this new menu option.
bulletEmployee Labor Reports - NEW - choice available to exclude a specific Task Type from report.  See the Reports > Employees > 2 Labor Summary.  This function would be especially useful to exclude SHOP Tasks from the Efficiency reporting (this would only work if all SHOP tasks are assigned one specific task type).
bulletATC Maintenance - FIXED - problem where some overtime choices may not have been respected.  This problem only involved the option for "start OT after XX hrs / week", and was only a problem if "40" was not entered into the hours.  OT was not properly calculated for anything other than "40".
bulletATC Maintenance - FIXED - problem where on-screen Totals at bottom of the ATC Maintenance > Main page did not always "refresh" properly when an entry was edited.
bulletATC Maintenance - NEW - modified the ATC Maintenance > Main > Edit buttons so that users entering times in the HH:MM:SS fields did not have their times adjusted once the HH.MM field was populated.
bulletATC Maintenance - NEW - modified the Time Sheet printout (Databases > ATC Maintenance > Main > Print) to now say "YES" or "NO" in Authorization column to make it easier to tell if the times are authorized or not
bulletInvoices > Parts & Equip - NEW - the grid is now "scrollable" for viewing even after posting
bulletInvoices > Main > Print > Shop Details - FIXED - problem where tax explanations for Taxes 2, 3 and 4 were not printing on this printout
bullet8130's - NEW - increased length of part # and serial # fields to 20 chars.   Printouts print full 20 characters for both fields.
bulletMonthly Totals > Tax (Sales) - FIXED - problem where printing the Tax Reports did not correctly print the Net Taxed Amount if any OW was exempt from Tax.  On-screen reports showed this value correctly.
bulletCustomer A/R Statements - NEW - added a "box" around the Balance Due field at the top of the statement to make it easier to see
bulletGeneral - modified multiple forms to allow users to manually type in 6 characters for the Customer Code or Vendor Code instead of forcing user to select the code from the pop-up picklist.

Version 5.10L released Sep-15-2005

bulletWork Orders > Main Page > A/C Hours - Fixed problem where any Work Orders that existed in the program prior to upgrading to version 5 would display zero A/C Hours instead of the correct A/C Hours originally entered into the Work Order
bulletBrowse Page Keyboard Shortcuts - fixed problem where using Alt + B keys to get to some Browse pages did not put the cursor focus into any of the search fields, requiring the user to still use their mouse
bulletPO's & Expenses - UnReceive - fixed message text during Unreceive a PO Quick Req item that incorrectly reported that the item was from a Work Order.  Message now indicates that the item came from a Work Order OR a PO Quick Req and cannot be Unreceived.
bulletVendor Adjustments > Browse - Now shows negative Totals in parentheses
bulletInvoices > Print > Shop Detailed Copy - fixed problem where Balance Due printed incorrect value
bulletAircraft > Inspection Data > Last Maint Date field - fixed problem where italic pop-up calendar did not insert the date selected into the field.

bulletWork Orders > Finished Tasks - Modified program to prompt users if they want to continue with the  add/edit/delete for Labor, Equipment, Parts, Other, Reqs, Exchg/Repairs when a Task has been marked Finished with a Finish Date or Finish Status.  Users had previously been prevented from adding/editing/deleting when the task was marked Finished.
bulletWork Orders - fixed problem with Work Order form.  When Work Order form is opened to the Details, Text, Labor, Parts, Equipment, Other, Reqs, Exchgs/Repairs pages; and another form is opened, there were problems with the incorrect data appearing when going back to the Work Order.  Users now receive a message that they must go to the Items/Task List page to re-select the task.  Focus will be on the task that was just being viewed, so users will be able to immediately click right back to the page they were on.
bulletQuotes - fixed problem with Quotes form.   When Quotes form is opened to the Text & Details, Labor, Parts, Equipment, or Trades pages; and another form is opened, there were problems with the incorrect data appearing when going back to the Quote.  Users now receive a message that they must go to the Items List page to re-select the item.  Focus will be on the item that was just being viewed, so users will be able to immediately click right back to the page they were on.
