What's
New In CAPITAL 7.51
-
CAPITAL Office now offers several choices on how tax related expenses are tracked within the system. The Fast Recording Method is equivalent to previous versions of CAPITAL with certain enhancements and short-cuts. The new Detailed Audit Method is useful when your tax recording requirements are more complex. For information on the new systems available and their advantages and disadvantages consult the topic: Tax Recording Methods.
-
A new posting mode called LivePost has been introduced into the Corporate Edition of CAPITAL Office. LivePost does not create or update general ledger system batches but posts journal balances directly to CAPITAL GL Controller, the general ledger. This feature is useful if you wish to frequently view general ledger balance and print financial statements throughout an active period, since there is no longer a need (when operating in this mode) to run the End Period Wizard, or review and post automatically generated system journal batches.
-
Customer Mailing List Letters now support bulk email and fax output when the CAPITAL Electronic Document Exchange Component is installed.
-
A new transaction type has been introduced in the Corporate Edition release of CAPITAL called 'Return Authority.'
- The Cost Price Out Of Date feature provides active feedback to users on the status of cost prices during invoice, sales order and quotation entry. If a cost price is too old, users will be warned to confirm the price. The Cost Price Out Of Date warning feature automatically checks the last purchase date, considers fixed or agreed pricing where applicable, and allows operators to automatically or manually confirm that pricing has been checked even if no purchases have recently taken place.
- Information on customer debt and payment committments can now be placed inside a 'Debt Collection Notepad' found in the Customer's area under the View menu. Any information placed in this note pad will be transferred beneath the relevant entries on applicable reports, such the Customer Account Balances Report. Debt related notes can also be reviewed during payment entry.
- The supplier transaction entry system has been substantially enhanced. For more information on this subject consult the topic: Supplier Transactions Reference. In summary the major new new features include:
- Detailed reference information (narrations). Invoices and payment may contain an unlimited amount of text notes.
- Supplier transaction information such as date, reference, payment allocations, etc., may now be viewed in detail even if the operator does not have edit rights for the transaction (although the transaction may not be changed without sufficient security clearance).
- The tax component of a supplier invoice can be suggested for you automatically, based on the invoice total.
- You may now add a transaction and enter it's related payment immediately. This short-cut allows you to enter an invoice and its payment in one step.
- You may add a transaction and copy its details into subsequent transactions during data entry. This allows you to enter similar transactions for the same or different accounts very quickly.
- Supplier transactions may now be saved as templates. A template is a copy of the basic elements of a transaction. Using them allows you to enter similar or repetitive transactions quickly. For example, if you are always entering a phone bill into the system from the same supplier, with the same expense allocations, saving the transaction as a template means that you do not have to enter the same basic details over and over again.
- A new category of customer price rule,
called the default price rule, has been added to Customer
Special Pricing. Default price rules are similar to global price
rules, except they are checked last instead of first. This is
useful for defining default pricing conditions for multiple
customer price groups.
- You may now selectively print multiple
individual invoice transactions using the Transaction Printing
utility by marking them as 'special' and ticking the 'Special
Only' setting before printing.
- Those CAPITAL standard reports that can be saved as data files
of various types, can now also be saved as Excel spreadsheets (.XLS
format). Stocktakes can also be saved as Excel spreadsheets.
- You may now select to sort transactions by account code,
transaction number, carrier, department, date and many other
criteria when printing using the Transaction Printing utility.
- In addition to the user defined field BARCODE, the Extended
Transaction Searches feature will now also search the fields
BARCODE0 through to BARCODE9, if they exist. When attempting to
match a product code during transaction entry, the system can
now search up to 14 product code cross-references per stock item
simultaneously.
