In the Financials area many new features cover the Italian needs but many other features are implemented for everybody or for specific country. The accruals / deferrals are automatically managed even those pluriennial! It is enough to indicate an end date of the fruition after the close of the current year and Mago.net will automatically charge each period in the proper manner.
Now on the balances of customers / suppliers and financial accounts from asset written in Forecast Accounting can be carried over into the new year just as happens for the actual account balances. A very useful feature for Italians it is the check of a VAT number: Mago.net 3.0 offers the possibility to check if the VAT number provided is valid and exists. Thanks to a special link in the contextual menu in the field where you entered the VAT, you can connect to the service provided by the Internal Revenue Service and you know immediately if the data is valid: comfortable, quick and foolproof!
In the Logistics area is interesting to know that thanks to a new parameter, you can make mandatory the inclusion of an item code that exists in our inventory master; this function is present for sales and purchase documents and for inventory transactions. It helps to manage the inventory at the best. Sometimes the quantities in stock and the value of the stock are affected by the presence of articles and / or movements without unit of measure: now you can avoid this unfortunate situation by enabling the automatic control that checks whether the article has a valid unit of measure and if the one used in the movement is available for the item (such as the derived unit of measure). In Mago.net 3.0 has been extended the control / block for documents that decrease the quantity in storage if the quantity available is not sufficient or lead the safety stock in each deposit, obviously all things are completely configurable. In order to always control the actual stock level on the single deposit, that information is integrated in the dropdown box associated with the insertion of the item code. Interesting news in the sales force management: the ability to manage sales peolple and area manager on individual branches in the customer master (Other locations), it offers greater adaptability to more varied management of sales force. In order to conclude the quick selection of news in Logistics area, I would like to mention the renewed inventory correction procedure that allows the simultaneous analysis of lots and locations: a great saving of time and greater control, guaranteed!
In the Manufacturing area was introduced several innovations, really hard to mention in few lines considering the importance. Let's see some of them. E.C.O. for experts of manufacturing is certainly a familiar acronym, it stands for Engineering Change Order and it allows to manage in a controlled manner, thanks to an appropriate work-flow, the changes to be made to the structure of a bill of materials for both of processing and materials. Mago.net 3.0 allows a refined and rigorous management of the process of ECO through the introduction of appropriate forms, procedures and dedicated reports. Manufacturing management is undoubtedly a complex issue: the adoption of the Kanban method can greatly simplify the management of the repetitive productions (the method was introduced for the first time by Toyota). In Mago.net 3.0 provides a simple management of the "tag" that allows you to work through this mode. The possibility to decide whether to buy or produce certain components of a statement is normal practice in the manufacturing world that takes the name of Make or Buy. Again Mago.net 3.0 implements everything necessary to manage in a simple but precise way the "phenomenon" of the Make or Buy. The GANTT was renovated: a new component with more modern look and improved usability has replaced the "old" OCX component. The possibility of including in the BOM the components with fixed quantity, will be useful to many production situations.
These are just some of the improvements introduced on the "ERP side" in Mago.net 3.0: on November 20th , the new release will be available for download and you will discover all the many news releases by downloading the documentation from the Download Products on the Microarea Portal.
