Declaration 394
The Statement 394 has been enriched so to meet the new requirement related transactions within a group of companies. A group of companies is an economic entity formed of a set of companies that are either companies controlled by a same company or the controlling company itself.
The company must meet the one of the following cases:
- The main company owns at least 25% of others companies’ capital.
- The related companies own at least 25% of the main company’s capita
If such transactions exist in the submit period, this info must be declared in the 394 Statement.
How should the trade accounts (companies) participating in a company group be configured?
The person of the main company must be set as “Group” while the persons of the the related companies must be linked to the main one.
Fiscal year splitting
In the process of splitting fiscal years, the feature for omitting backup has been added. Hence, at the beginning of the process a message is shown, asking about if a Database backup will be taken. The above feature is useful in installations running on Azure cloud where backup is not supported by the application.
Document transitions
The customization feature for collapsing analysis lines with filled out lot has been added to the execution of transitions. This way you can choose whether the analysis lines with filled out lot will be grouped and collapsed below the same item line.
The regulation of this behavior is done through the company parameter
Items/Barcodes: Analysis line with filled out lot grouping during transition
in Document management parameter area. The default parameter value is NO, so that there is no change in the behavior of the application.
Item relations / Related items
In the configuration of the related items, the use of a different measurement unit for the related item was supported, in contrast to the current mandatory use of the measurement unit of the initial item in the related item.
The Related item MU has been added to the Inventory and Catalog item forms in the “Item relations” tab, where you can select the measurement unit that will be used in the related item line.
The picture above, shows a typical example of using the new feature, where the content-packaging relation is 1 to 12, i.e. 1 box of beers contains 12 bottles. In the aforementioned example, when an item line is inserted to the document for the beer with quantity 1 box, then automatically a line of bailment good with 12 bottles will be inserted.
Import data
The Import data from external sources process has been improved. Hereafter, all the related processes of importing data, emi, bank transactions, etc. follow the configuration that has been defined in the company parameter (General / System): Data migration - default directory for temporary files.
| It is reminded that the parameter need to be filled out only if you wish to use another directory for saving temporary files, except for the ESNoSync\ImportTempPath which is automatically used by the system when the parameter has not been defined. |
Stock valuation
The scheduling of valuation process has been improved by adding new features. Hereafter, it is possible to schedule the execution of the process once, as during scheduling and creation of the scheduled task you can set to “Up to execution period” the previous or current period at the time of execution. Until now, the scheduling for execution was supported with a fixed “Up to period”, the one that had been chosen at the time of the creation of the scheduled task.
Hence, during the scheduling, the following messages are displayed:
If you select YES in the next message then the created task will always be executed for the "Up to period" you have selected in the execution process window.
IF you select NO, the following message will be displayed:
If you wish the process to be executed each time “Up to current period” corresponding to the date of execution of the task, select YES. By selecting NO the “Up to period” will be calculated each time as the previous period of the execution date.
Trial Balances / Registers
The feature of restricting access to the criterion of selecting Branch and Warehouse has been added to BIT, trial balance and register reports. The configuration can be done through the new security right: Show results from all sites (All protected options / actions / financial management).
Users who are not granted the above right, can only execute the reports for the branch which they are connected and can select Warehouses to display among the warehouses of the branch they are connected.
Copy to other Companies
The “Copy to other Companies” action is also available for Dimension combinations profile entity (Menu: Tools and configuration/ Customization/ Inventory items/ Measurement units/Packages).
Entersoft Retail
The dialog box for inserting weight is hereafter displayed in ESRetail forweighed items, if the barcode scanned does not contain weighing information.
The configuration is done at the workstation through the AutoDisplayQuantities_CheckWeight parameter in ES00RetailParams.xml and requires the appropriate configuration for displaying the weighing quantity on the entry dialog box.
Horizontal functionality
Hotfix installation
Overall, το ESConfig.exe, which provides access to individual management tools of Entersoft Application Server, Clients and Database has been updated. Additionally, the hotfix installation tool is now available here as well, in the “Upgrade & Maintenance” section, as long as the selected desktop role is (and) the Application server.
New sentiment analysis built-in function
A new built-in function has been added to the automations and rules (Business rules): Calculate text sentiment score (CalculateSentimentScoreFunction).
The function takes as parameter a text or an alphanumeric field and returns the calculated score, so it is saved in a numeric field. This gives the feature of automated utilization of the specific cognitive tool and its results.
For instance, by calculating the sentiment analysis when inserting a complaint and saving the score in a decimal field, a related report with statistics (such as average, variance, etc.) can be generated on the calculated scores by complaint category, in date range.
View (Scroller) design & development
In the scroller designer, in the Select or the Where (Expression Editor), as well as the SQL Additions, acquired the same editor as the query in the database. Also, the zoom feature is activated with the combination <ctrl> + mouse wheel. This greatly facilitates their writing and reading.
