SLI sales invoice taxation
Description of the enhancement
In various countries you must calculate tax based on the delivery date on the
delivery date of the shipped goods. So far the BaanERP5.0b SLI module did not
provide this feature; the tax year and the tax period were always based on the
invoice date. Using the enhancement for Sales invoices tax periods the user can
choose the tax date from:
n Invoice date
n Order date
n Delivery date

Customer implications/benefits
In the old situation for all logistic companies in an enterprise, a central mapping
scheme had to be defined. For customers who use a large number of logistic
companies, a central mapping scheme was not feasible. With the current
enhancement, you only need to setup a central mapping scheme once and leave
the Logistic Company field empty. It will be used as a base setup for all logistic
companies. Logistic companies that require a specific mapping onto Finance can
be maintained only for this specific logistic company.
For customers, that already run BaanERP this has no consequences, because it is
easier to share one central mapping scheme across logistic companies. Because
this is an optional enhancement, customers are not forced to change their current
setup.

Customers that run with service pack 1 (or higher) of BaanERP5.0b are now able
to work with the Integration Mapping Company field in the Logistic
Companies by Financial Company (tfgld0100m000) session. This field was
removed, because it cannot work for all multisite scenearios.
What must be done to use the enhancement?
Customers may need to reconsider the central mapping scheme setup and find
out whether a standard mapping scheme setup can be used, and when they need
to set up a specific scheme for one logistic company.
Are other components influenced?
No
Integration options
Description of the enhancement
When you define options by integration element, you can now define a logistic
company to which the logistic data in the session will refer. You can also leave
this field blank and define a blank setup. Especially in multifinance /
multilogistic company setups, the logistic data had to be shared because database
references and zoom session could not be established otherwise. Now, only when
the Logistic Company field is left blank, we expect your data not be shared.

Customer implications/benefits
You can specify integration option relations by logistic company. The logistic
entities of a specific logistic company can now be used for reading
references/establishing zoom sessions and you do not need to share your data.
Only in situations where you always use the same logistic company/financial
company relationship do you need to share tables.
The Logistic Company field is optional. When the field is left blank, the setup is
used as a sort of base setup. When a dimension cannot be found based on logistic
company search, the blank setup will be used.
What must be done to use the enhancement?
When there is a current setup, the customer does not have to create a specific
new setup. Programs that use the Integration Option setup will always determine
the correct setup. If you have problems with the current solution you should
reconsider your setup. If a logistical company does not necessarily use only a
single financial company, and, therefore, you can have many-to many company
relationships, you can use the enhancement immediately to solve your current
reference problems.

Deferred emergency service orders
Description of the enhancement
By using this enhancement, you can mark a service order as emergency, skip the
planning, and release the order to a field engineer. All the released service orders
that are either emergency/created by emergency calls, and that are not responded
to within the given time, are displayed as deferred emergency service orders.
Because these service orders are auto-refreshed, the dispatcher can easily view
orders that have not been responded to.

Emergency call handling
Description of the enhancement
The call center receives a call from the customer who requests an immediate
service from a service engineer. The call center registers the call as an
emergency, assigns the call to a service engineer, and transfers the call to Service
Order Control, which creates a service order with status released. This Service
order is readily available to the service engineer, who can respond to the
customer quickly.
You can now automatically transfer the calls to a service order. If a deferred call
is for a configuration that is covered under a contract or a warranty, the system
automatically transfers the call to a released service order, to make it available to
the field engineer as soon as possible. A new session is provided for this
enhancement, which can be maintained as a repetitive job for performing the
automatic transfer.
