Page Comparison

Situation:

The "Deferred Taxes (Balance Sheet Comparison)" line from the "Other" dialog is no longer linked into the TRR due to calculation base 1301031.

Solution:

The "Deferred Taxes (Balance Sheet Comparison)" line from the "Other Dialog" is linked back into the TRR line "Out-of-period Deferred Taxes".

Situation:

For Oracle the database connection cannot be configured via JNDI.

Solution:

Also for Oracle the database connection in the configuration file repository.xml can be set to JNDI. The details of the database connection are defined in the Tomcat file context.xml.

Situation:

If an error occurs in dialogue "Data export" during the execution of a flexible RFC export, its details are written to the log and a success message is displayed in the browser.

Solution:

The information that an error occurred is also displayed in the browser. The error cause and details are written to the log.

Situation:
The iText library used is outdated and has potential security risks.

Certain old export versions use this library to generate PDF booking vouchers.

Solution:
The library has been removed. PDF exports have been disabled in export versions that are no longer supported. If the export is still configured and a user triggers the export, a corresponding error message is displayed.

Situation:

When an import in the "(sub-) group" area is executed, it can happen that the subsequently displayed protocol is very extensive. Its rendering in the browser might take a very long time or not work at al, which can lead to data inconsistencies.

In addition, this dialogue is typically used for data import for many companies, and, if necessary, the tax calculation executed. However, the companies are not locked for other users. This means they can be processed in parallel.

Solution:

The import in the "(Sub-) Group" area is implemented analogously to the period transfer. While the import is being carried out, the complete period is locked for other users. The user may log out during the import. After the import is completed, the short protocol is displayed in the dialogue. The detailed protocol is available for download.

Situation:

The import is made via the flexible RfC interface.
The interface always resets all values during the import, even if these were not configured in the definition of the interface.

For example, if local GAAP values are to be imported into the Local GAAP column via the flexible RfC interface, the IFRS balance sheet is reset during the import. However, no parameter for the IFRS value was specified in the interface structure and "Reset IFRS" was not activated either.

Solution:

Only the balance sheet is reset that was also activated accordingly in the interface structure.

Situation:

Creating comments via the context menu when right-clicking was no longer available.

Solution:

The right-click context menu has been restored. Creating comments via the context menu works as expected.

Situation:

The local balance is deactivated for the company in the company master data.

When importing, the imported values are displayed with 0.00 in the log.

Solution:

If the local balance is deactivated, the import log shows the imported values correctly.

Situation:

Under certain circumstances, the drop-down lists that control the contents of the reports are displayed in a very verbose manner, making it almost impossible to use the dialogue.

Solution:

The drop-down lists are displayed in a much more space-saving way.

The xstream library has been updated.

Situation:

If the reclassification column is displayed in the TRR, the line "Effective income taxes (original + deferred taxes)" is not calculated in this column. If the reclassifications / corrections should lead to an effect on the effective income taxes, this was not taken into account in the IFRS column.

Solution:

Starting with the 2017 financial year, the line "Effective income taxes (original + deferred taxes)" is also calculated for the reclassification column in the TRR. The calculated effect is then taken into account accordingly in the IFRS column.

Situation:

When saving the data coming from the STB import, the actions to be performed during a save were performed as defined in the first interface structure. This includes, among others, the checkboxes for resetting, opening and closing the milestones.

Solution:

The interface structure dropdown is ignored when saving the STB import.

Portal / GTC Suite

Situation:

In the portal name-related information are stored under the columns LOGIN, FIRSTNAME and LASTNAME of the database table TUSER. Their maximum permissible length is not compatible with the lengths in the GTC table, which can lead to problems during data synchronization.

Solution:

The name-related table columns in the portal and in GTC have the same maximum permissible length.

Situation:

Reports always show current values. Snapshot values cannot be included in reports.

Solution:

Two new selection fields have been added to the "Reporting / Tax Reports" dialogue. The first selection field lists for the currently selected company all snapshots of the period, the second all snapshots of the comparison period. This can be used to select which data the report should use.

In the table of all reports, a new column "Snapshot" with an activated checkbox shows which reports support the snapshot feature.

The existing reports will be extended with the new feature step by step.
