What's new with Paragon - May 12, 2020

New features and bug fixes every two weeks. Come back here to check out what's new.

Write rules that use the created by and modified by profile names

Paragon's rules engine allows you to customize your ERP system in a variety of ways. Created by and modified by have now been exposed to the rules engine for all references and transactions. This update will allow you to run a rule that creates attributes using the username of the last person to have changed the transaction, and the time at which the change happened. 
With this information, you will be able to report on when a user created or modified a specific record.


Don't forget that you can always reach out to Jonar's Services team if you would like more information about rules at support@paragon-erp.com.

Update the cost of the parent component and the sub component when changing the price of a material using a rule


Do you use nested bills of material (BOMs)? We just added a great way to update the purchase cost of the top level product when the cost of a material is updated.

By default, the purchase cost of a top level BOM component and/or finished product does not get updated when the cost of a material is changed. With this update, we added an action button rule that you can use when you change the cost of a material and you want to automatically update all the materials and products that are using this material.
