With Version 2004, delivery schedule orders are created via the fast entry screen in the dialog.
The depiction of the delivery schedules (delivery classification) also takes place in the dialog - the old delivery schedules are constantly being compared to the new ones.
Shipping planning from JIT delivery schedules is equally supported as the clear listing of all blanket orders in the dialog - including packing slip, price and call-up history.
Starting on January 1, 2005 it will be possible to electronically transmit advance VAT returns to the Internal Revenue Services in Germany.
The Elster project of the regional tax office in Munich was created for this purpose.
In abas ERP the electronic data transfer to the Elster clearing location is realised using the new print engine.
In this way it is possible, for example, to transfer advance VAT returns from the print dialog of the advance VAT return form, or to transfer applications for permanent time limit extension from an information system.
To facilitate the connection of the abas web applications the roles and users can be maintained in a new database.
The web users' user rights are defined by ERP passwords.
The web users' identity results from the assignment to a customer staff reference, vendor staff reference or employee.
In Version 2004 it is possible to manage currencies, exchange rates and also exchange rate histories.
Per day each currency can be assigned to one exchange rate.
The previous exchange rate information will not be lost so that an exchange rate history is always available.
In addition to the system rates, buying rates and selling rates can be managed.
The previous exchange rate table in the systems administration files is maintained as an interface for the complete abas ERP system.
All currency information is changed when an upgrade is carried out.
