1. Prevent Costing of New Transactions that are in a Pending Close Period
Quick Notes:
When a period is in the Pending Close status, any new transaction that falls in or before this period won’t be staged in Cost Accounting or Receipt Accounting. After this period is closed or reopened, these new transactions will be processed with the current logic. Costing period statuses enable you to manage the timing for processing and accounting of transactions. You can now use the Pending Close status to hold transactions from being accounted in a given period.

2. AI Agent: Materials Expiration Advisor
Quick Notes:
Managing the shelf-life of lot-controlled products and preventing expiration can be a challenging and time-consuming task. Typically, you need to navigate through various pages, generate reports, and gather additional data, for example, demand from other organizations, to make informed decisions about expiring inventory. This traditional approach is often inefficient and time-intensive.
However, with the Materials Expiration Advisor AI agent, you can streamline this process through simple text-based chats. This agent provides you with critical information regarding lots that are close to, or have already expired. It includes details, such as on-hand quantity, supply and demand information, and even relevant handling instructions derived from uploaded regulatory guidelines and internal policies. With this information readily available, you can easily determine the best course of action, whether it’s relocating items within the warehouse for proper disposal or transferring them to another warehouse for timely utilization. When you’re ready to move the goods, you can initiate a movement request or interorganization transfer right from the agent.
Using the prebuilt AI Agent template for Material Expiration Advisor, you can create an agent team by making a copy of the template. This agent team can then be added to a guided journey on a Redwood page, such as the Lots page in Item Quantities.

3. Allocate Landed Cost for Transfer Order Receipts
Quick Notes:
You can now associate transfer order shipment to a trade operation and perform landed cost charge allocations using the shipment quantity. This ensures enhanced cost visibility and accurate inventory valuation for interorganizational material movements.
Here are some of the new functional capabilities and benefits introduced as part of this update:
- Search, filter, and process transfer order shipments from the Orders to Estimate page. The scorecard on this Redwood page provides a quick overview of transfer orders received in the last 7 days.
- Create trade operations on the shipment quantity for transfer orders. Transfer orders are now supported as a valid transaction type in trade operations, allowing for proportional distribution of charges across transfer order shipments. Trade operations can be created from the Trade Operations page as well as the Orders to Estimate page.
- Automate transfer order shipment allocation by associating transfer order shipments at the trade operation level.
- Allocate landed cost charges based on transfer order shipment quantity.
