The system automatically creates open items from notas fiscais generated in the sales processes. You then have several options for collecting your receivables; the system enables you to:
· Automatically generate and process duplicatas in local currency, including those related to installments or credit memos
· Issue and process your own boletos, or arrange for your bank to issue them
· Send DME files to banks in the most widely used bank file formats, and automatically process collection information returned by the bank via electronic account statement functions
· Process vendor operation financing
In addition, the customer master record has been enhanced to cover Brazilian needs.
