CABAS: Improved VAT management CABAS

1. A new way of specifying the vehicle owner’s VAT declaration obligation, if any, has been introduced. This now needs to be specified for each damage stage before action processing can commence.

2. VAT is now processed correctly during damage stage “Vehicle damage guarantee” and various scenarios (obliged to declare VAT, not obliged to declare VAT), as well as being presented in the customer summary.

3. A customer who is obliged to declare VAT is shown in the summary and in the customer summary.

4. In order to see the VAT declaration in the customer summary as well, this needs to be ticked in Basic data=>Users=>Settings (see below):

CABAS: Implementation of “Additional clear lacquer”

The actual functionality for being able to add “Additional clear lacquer” was implemented with release 2018.12. At that time, the calculation result for “Additional clear lacquer” was included with “Additional colour” as “Additional colour”. With this release, these two actions have been separated in the painting specification.

CABAS: Surface alignment - Limitation of the maximum size of the damage surface

As we have previously notified, the maximum size that can be specified for a damage surface that is to be repaired is limited to 15 dm² as from this release.
A red frame around the field for the damage surface indicates that a value larger than the maximum surface (15 dm²) has been entered.

CABAS: Damage inspection app and app-related development in CABAS

1. Photos taken with the damage inspection app are automatically entered into the calculation.
Before, it was easy to forget to transfer photos that had been taken with the damage inspection app to the calculation in the computer, and the photos ended up being deleted from the app before they were transferred. With this new development, the photos taken with the app are automatically entered into the calculation.

2. “Quick start” for the damage inspection
You only need to specify the registration number in order to start taking photos with the app quickly. The correct CABAS model is selected in the computer at a later stage.

3. View calculation history
You can now see when a calculation was created in the damage inspection app, both from within the calculation and by right-clicking on the home page.

CABAS: New reports in the Statistics portal

1. A filter has been added that makes it possible to create reports from calculations with the status “invoiced”.

2. There are now statistics for calculations relating to heavy vehicles.

CABAS: Expanded memory capacity for enclosed documents

As demands for photos, scanned documents and repair methods are increasing, the memory capacity has been expanded to 10MB.

CABAS: Shortcut to release notes on the home page

In order to get to the release notes quickly, there is a new icon on the home page that takes you directly to the list of all the release notes, both current ones and those from previous releases.
