Better management of your consumption
You now have a graphical representation of your consumption for better monitoring.
A deduplication operation is carried out according to the quality of the Business Partner (customer or supplier) in the event that they perform both roles, for a more precise analysis of your consumption.
You can set up alerts so that you are informed in advance if consumption is exceeded.
VAT number verification
The new “VAT Check” functionality is integrated into the alert log and third party record and verifies the VAT numbers of third parties.
This check is proven by a number transmitted by VIES.
New RNVP address format
Business Add-On optimises the address of your third parties by integrating the RNVP format for greater accuracy, thereby improving your billing process.
Displaying minority links
You can now choose to display the entities of shareholders holding less than 50% of the shares in order to optimise the hierarchy of your third party guarantee links.
The 360° view of the Group tree is updated with one click.
Extended email notification settings
Don’t miss any more important information! You can set the type of information for which you want to receive an email notification as you wish. You can easily select the themes that will be integrated into your email, such as alerts, data updates or consumption.
Financial information on your overseas third parties
From your Business Add-On solution you can consult the financial rating of your third parties as well as the comments associated with the risk rating.
From among your Business Partners you identify those who are in Collective Procedure, via the alert log as well as in the business Partner’s file.
