...
In the right part of the Home dialogue you will find Application and Database version. This information is important for AMANA enquiries \[GTC version you use\].
Select period and company
In the GTC the majority of master data is period-based. One period corresponds to one set of master and transaction data for all related companies. This can be an annual balance sheet, interim financial reporting or a tax return on a specific date. This ensures that the changes in group structures are displayed over a period of time.
Periods and companies created in the GTC can be selected by users for editing independently from one another. Basically, period and company can be selected in the dialogue header of all main dialogues. In the period-dependent master data dialogues you can select the periods that have to be edited or viewed. Data sets belonging to the selected period will be listed below.

Number format
Number format can be selected in the corresponding dropdown list \[{_}Number Format{_}\]. Number format specifies how the numbers are presented in the GTC. This function is necessary since many countries use different number formats. For example, in Germany decimal numbers are separated with a comma and a dot is used as thousand delimiter\[e.g. 1.000.000,00\]; while in the English-speaking countries decimal numbers are often separated with a dot and comma is used as thousand delimiter\[e.g. 1,000,000.00\].
