2.117ImprovementAmount Calculation, Media Configuration, Net Calculator, PDF

The latest version of ADvendio brings a much anticipated improvement by many of our customers. With version 2.117, you now have the ability to configure decimal places for sales price. This improvement has far reaching implications, in particular, for example, when dealing with billing categories with very low sales price.


For example you have an item with CPCV at ,05214 and a quantity of 1000. You can now invoice this item to the value of 52,14 instead of the previous value of 50,00. Furthermore, the full Sales Price value can also be reflected on your quote and invoice PDFs.

2.116.1ImprovementFinance / Invoicing / Preinvoicing

In order to give you the most flexibility with regards to your invoicing needs, it is now possible to set the payment start for individual Campaign Items.

This enables you to invoice items on an alternate schedule to the rest of your Media Campaign. Doing so via the Campaign Item has  the added benefit that if the invoice date is the same as  another item within your Media Campaign, they will be shown on the same invoice, saving both you and your customer administrative time and effort.

2.116.1New Feature

Meeting your taxation requirements just got easier and more convenient with the latest improvement to handling of VAT/GST within ADvendio. 

With the new enhanced ability to configure who is considered the 'buyer' for tax purposes, you can now handle the creation of your Media Campaigns where, for example, the Debtor location should not determine the applicable VAT from a buyer perspective but the Beneficiary location.  

This feature setting can be created to set up one field for the applicable buyer or even implement a hierarchy.
