Wprowadzanie klasyfikacji
HansaWorld Enterprise umożliwa organizację rekordów w kartotece Kontrahentów za pomocą ustawień: Kategorie kontahentów oraz Klasyfikacje kontrahentów. Chociaż każdy Kontrahent może należeć tylko do jednej kategorii, to można mu przypisać więcej niż jedną klasyfikację. Klasyfikacje są bardzo uniwersalne. Umożliwiają analizę Kontrahentów na wiele różnych sposobów. Można, na przykład klasyfikować Kontrahentów w podziale na branże oraz lokalizacje.
Jeśli w systemie wykorzystywane są oba ustawienia to funkcja Wstaw klasyfikację wspomaga klasyfikowanie Kontrahentów w następujący sposób:
- W nagłówku na karcie kategorii Odbiorcy znajduje się pole Klasyf.. Jeśli podasz typ klasyfikacji (lub kilka typów po przecinku), a następnie przypiszesz kategorię do karty Kontrahenta to system kontroluje, aby przed zapisaniem karty zostały podane właściwe klasyfikacje. Na przykładowo, wszystkim Kontrahentom należącym do poniższej kategorii należy przypisać klasyfikację należącą do typu LOK oraz BRA.

- Wprowadzając kartę Kontrahenta należącego do tej kategorii można wykorzystać polecenie 'Wstaw' (skrót klawiaturowy Ctrl-Enter lub ⌘-Enter) w polu Klasyfikacja. Jednak zamiast standardowej listy podpowiedzi pojawi się okno 'Wstaw klasyfikację':

W oknie 'Wstaw klasyfikację' należy wybrać klasyfikacje należące do dwóch różnych typów. Okno posiada dwa pola, po jednym dla każdej wymaganej klasyfikacji (maksymalna liczba klasyfikacji wymagana przez kategorię to 7).
- Wykorzystując polecenie 'Wstaw' w poszczególnych polach okna można wybrać z listy podpowiedzi właściwe klasyfikacje. Można wykorzystać pole Inne, aby wprowadzić dodatkową klasyfikację należącą do innego typu.

- Klasyfikacja zostanie dopisana do już zdefiniowanych w polu Klasyfikacja, jeśli klikniesz przycisk [OK] w oknie 'Wstaw klasyfikację'. Jeśli klikniesz przycisk [Zamień] wszystkie klasyfikacje zdefiniowane w polu Klasyfikacja zostaną zamienione na nowe.

Typy klasyfikacji
Typy klasyfikacji umożliwiają podział klasyfikacji kontrahentów na grupy.
Typy klasyfikacji są definiowane w ustawieniach modułu CRM. Kliknij przycisk [Wybierz moduł] w Oknie Głównym i przejdź do modułu CRM. Następnie wybierz 'Ustawienia' z menu Plik lub kliknij przycisk [Ustawienia] w Oknie Głównym. Dwukrotnie kliknij 'Klasyfikacje kontrahentów - typy' na liście dostępnych ustawień.

Pojawi się okno 'Typy klasyfikacji:Przeglądanie' z listą wszystkich typów klasyfikacji zdefiniowanych w ustawieniu. Aby wprowadzić nowy typ klasyfikacji kliknij przycisk [Nowa] na pasku przycisków. Pojawi się okno 'Typ klasyfikacji:Nowa karta'. Wprowadź informacje, a następnie kliknij przycisk [Zapisz] na pasku przycisków, aby zapamiętać wprowadzone dane.
System wspomaga klasyfikowanie Kontrahentów według różnych typów. Więcej informacji na ten ten temat zobacz: nagłówek ustawienia Kategorie kontrahentów.
Klasyfikacje kontrahentów
Ustawienie Klasyfikacje kontrahentów w module CRM pozwala zdefiniować dowolną liczbę klasyfikacji, które można wykorzystać przy grupowaniu i klasyfikowaniu Kontrahentów według dowolnie zdefiniowanych kryteriów (region, branża, wielkość zatrudnienia itd.). Klasyfikacje definiuje się na zakładce 'Dane kontakt.' na karcie Kontrahenta. W polu Klasyfikacja można podać po przecinku kilka klasyfikacji. Można, na przykład klasyfikować Kontrahentów w podziale na branże oraz lokalizacje.
Ustawienie Klasyfikacje kontrahentów daje inne możliwości klasyfikowania Kontrahentów niż ustawienie Kategorie kontrahentów w Księdze Sprzedaży. Najczęściej wykorzystuje się kategorię do grupowania Kontrahentów ze względu na rodzaj działalności. Do karty Kontrahenta można przypisać tylko jedną kategorię, ale kilka klasyfikacji.
Klasyfikacje kontrahentów są dostępne jako kryterium wyboru w parametrach wielu raportów w module CRM oraz w Księdze Sprzedaży (np. Rejestr sprzedaży VAT- UE). Klasyfikacje wspomagają prowadzenie akcji mailingowych poprzez możliwość wysyłania faksów i listów do wybanej grupy Kontrahentów za pomocą kartoteki Listów kontrahentów w module CRM.
Klasyfikacje można grupować w typy, co ułatwia prowadzenie analiz.

Okno 'Klasyfikacje kontrahentów:Przeglądanie' wyświetla listę wszystkich zdefiniowanych klasyfikacji. Kliknij przycisk [Nowa] na pasku przycisków, aby wprowadzić nową kartę. Pojawi się okno 'Klasyfikacja kontrahenta:Nowa karta'. Wprowadź stosowne dane, a następnie kliknij przycisk [Zapisz] na pasku przycisków, aby zapamiętać wprowadzone informacje. W polu Typ na karcie klasyfikacji można wykorzystać polecenie Wstaw, aby wyświetlić listę podpowiedzi.
Po zapisaniu karty klasyfikacji nie można zmienić pola Kod. Aby zmodyfikować kod należy wykorzystać ustawienia
Konwersja - Podstawowe oraz Konwersja -Klasyfikacje kontrahentów w module System. Za pomocą ustawień można zmienić kod klasyfikacji w ustawieniu oraz na wszystkich kartach, we wszystkich kartotekach systemu.
Ustawienia kontrahenta
Ustawienie dostępne jest w module Księga Sprzedaży i pozwala zdefiniować domyślne ustawienia, które będą wykorzystywane na kartach w kartotece Kontrahentów.
Kliknij przycisk [Wybierz moduł] w Oknie Głównym, a następnie wybierz moduł Księga Sprzedaży. Wybierz 'Ustawienia' z menu Plik lub kliknij przycisk [Ustawienia] w Oknie Głównym. Dwukrotnie kliknij 'Ustawienia kontrahenta' na liście dostępnych ustawień. Pojawi się okno 'Ustawienia kontrahenta:Podgląd':

- Domyślna kategoria

Job Descriptions
This setting is a look-up table used by the Contact Person and Customer Letter registers.
You can report on and mail Contacts based on their Job Description. It is therefore recommended that this setting be used not to record actual job titles (which vary from company to company) but generic job descriptions. This would enable you to report on or mail Contacts with similar roles but varying job titles.
On double-clicking 'Job Descriptions' in the 'Settings' list, the following window appears:

Enter each new Job Description on the first blank line and, when finished, click the [Save] button in the Button Bar to save the changes. To close the window without saving changes, click the close box.
Number Series - Contacts
Each Contact has its own unique identifying number, based on a sequential series. When you enter a new Contact, the next number in the sequence will be used. If required, you can have a number of such sequences running concurrently, perhaps representing different types of Contact (e.g. Customer, Supplier or Contact Person) or different departments.
Use this setting to define these sequences, or Number Series. The different series should not overlap. If you leave the setting empty, Contact Numbers will start at 1 and continue consecutively. If you want to start from another number, simply specify it in a new Contact record before saving.
Once you have defined number sequences for Contacts, you can optionally use the Number Series Defaults setting in the System module to specify the number sequence that is to be used by default. The first new Contact that you enter will take its Number from the number sequence specified in the Number Series Defaults setting or otherwise from the first valid Number Series in this setting. For a particular Contact, any user can change to the first unused number in any other valid Number Series using 'Paste Special'.
When you save each Contact for the first time, its Contact Number will also be saved in the Number Series Defaults setting. So, if you used 'Paste Special' to change to another Number Series, that Number Series will provide the default Number for the next new Contact.
You should define Number Series - Contacts using the setting in the Sales Ledger. Use the [Module] button in the Master Control panel to enter the Sales Ledger and then click the [Settings] button, also in the Master Control panel. Double-click 'Number Series - Contacts' in the resulting list. The following window appears:

Enter each new Number Series on the first blank line. The Comment will be shown in the 'Paste Special' list, so enter some text that will help you choose a number from the correct sequence. The N/L field common to all Number Series settings is not used with Contacts. Then, when finished, click the [Save] button in the Button Bar to save the changes. To close the window without saving changes, click the close box.
Note that you can only enter numeric characters in the Number Series - Contacts setting, but Contact Numbers can also contain alpha characters. So, you can only set numeric number sequences, but when entering Contacts you can use alpha characters providing you remain within the sequence. For example, if you have a sequence of 1-100, you will be able to use Contact Numbers 1, 1A, 1B, 2 and so on, but not A1 or B1. You will also be able to use Contact Numbers with leading zeros (001, 002 and so on), but you will need to set this format in the first Contact you enter or in the Number Series Defaults setting, not in the Number Series setting. The format will be remembered for subsequent Contacts.

Supplier Categories
Suppliers of a similar type can be grouped together using Supplier Categories. All Suppliers of the same Category can be given the same default Creditor Account, saving you the work of having to specify this for all Suppliers individually.
Use the Modules menu to enter the Purchase Ledger and then select 'Settings' from the File menu or click [Settings] in the Master Control panel. Double-click 'Supplier Categories' in the resulting list. The 'Supplier Categories: Browse' window is displayed, showing all Categories previously entered. Click [New] to enter a new record, and [Save] to save it.

- Code
- Specify a unique code, by which the Supplier Category may be identified from the Supplier screen and elsewhere in Hansa.
- Description
- Enter text describing the Supplier Category here.
- Creditor Account
- Paste Special
Account register, Nominal Ledger/System module
- Specify here the Creditor Account that you wish to be credited by the Nominal Ledger Transactions created when Purchase Invoices are raised for Suppliers of this Category.
- If a Creditor Account is specified both for a Supplier Category and for a Supplier that belongs to that Category, that entered for the Supplier will take precedence. If no Creditor Account is specified for a Category or a Supplier, it will be taken from the Creditor, On Account or Cash Accounts specified in the Account Usage P/L setting.
- If you have Sub-ledger Checking switched on, any Account entered here must first be defined as a Creditor Control Account. Sub-ledger Checking is switched on using the check box on card 1 of the Account Usage P/L setting, and Control Accounts are defined using the Sub-ledger Control Accounts setting in the System module.
- On Account A/C
- Paste Special
Account register, Nominal Ledger/System module
- This account is used when you can buy on account from a Supplier ((i.e. when you can pay before you have received the Invoice). To allow this, you must check the On Account check box for each individual Supplier affected (on the 'Terms' card of the Supplier screen). When a purchase is made from account Suppliers in this Category, this Account will be used in place of the default Creditor Account. When a Prepayment or On Account Payment is issued to a Supplier belonging to this Category, it will be debited to this Account. Subsequently, when the Invoice is received and allocated to that Payment, the same Account is credited in place of the default Creditor Account. Please refer to the On Account Payments and Prepayments page for full details of this process.
- If an On Account A/C is specified for an individual Supplier, it will be used in place of the one entered here. If no On Account A/C is specified for a Supplier or for the Category to which it belongs, it will be taken from the On Account A/C specified in the Account Usage P/L setting (card 2).
User Defined Fields
The Customer record is capable of storing a sufficient quantity of information to cater for most requirements. However, in some circumstances, it might be necessary to store additional information for which no fields have been provided. The User Defined Fields setting in the CRM module allows you to add your own fields to each Customer record for this purpose. The new fields will be visible on the 'User Defined' card of each Customer record.
Use the Modules menu to enter the CRM module and then select 'Settings' from the File menu or click [Settings] in the Master Control panel. Double-click 'User Defined Fields' in the resulting list. The 'User Defined Field Labels: Inspect' window opens. Make changes as required and then click the [Save] button in the Button Bar to save changes and close the window. Click the close box if you do not want to save changes.
User Defined Fields - Card 1

When the 'User Defined Field Labels: Inspect' window is empty as shown in the illustration above, the 'User Defined' card of each Customer record will be empty as well:

Use card 1 of the 'User Defined Field Labels: Inspect' window to give names to the new fields that you want to be shown on the 'User Defined' card of each Customer record. You can add up to five text fields (fields that can contain letters and numbers), three value fields (fields that can hold numbers only) and three date fields. In this example, we have added two text fields, two value fields and one date field:

This is how they appear in the Customer record:

User Defined Fields - Card 2
Use card 2 of the 'User Defined Field Labels: Inspect' to name the address fields in each Customer record. When card 2 of the 'User Defined Field Labels: Inspect' window is empty, the address fields on the 'Contact' and 'Delivery' cards of each Customer record are unnamed:

Use card 2 of the 'User Defined Field Labels: Inspect' to name these address fields so that all users know what to type into each one. Here is an example, reflecting the usual address format used in the UK:

The 'Contact' card of each Customer record will now look like this:
