Language - Will be used on print, email and reports. If another language is registrated on a Customer (CUS) or a Supplier (SUP), this will overwrite the information from Company. If no language is set on Company, Customer og Supplier - english is used as default

Enterprise - The format is different from country to country. In Norway we create the Enterprise number without 'NO' in the front and 'MVA' at the end, - example: 111 222 333

Vatno - The format is different from country to country. In Norway we create the Vatno with MVA at the end since this is a claim that it shows on documents. In Sweden there is always 'SE' in the front of the Vatno, and '01' at the end. All EU contries have their Countrycode (CCODE) in front of the Vatno, - example: DK 222 333 444

Location (LOC) - This is the main location for the Company. This will be used as default Location on documents, - if not another location is set on Personell (PER), then this location will overwrite the location set in Company. This Location must be created in the Location (LOC) archive

GmModel (Gross Margin model) - Stock and unrealized Stock are calculated based on historical value (exchange rate when the Goods Reception Item (SSA-ITM) was registered in stock) or at current value (current price) or at invoice rate value (rate on SIN is posted back on SSA meaning value on SSA item is changed according to the rate on the SIN item).

Gm (Gross Margin) - the Company will not sell below this percent of profit. If they will sell with lover profit, is has to be approved by dedicated Personell

Unit - Units that the Company will use have to be created in the UNI (Unit) archive before it can be added in Company. A unit for 'pcs' must always be created, and this unit must be added in this field in Company

Rate Source - Customers can modify their RateSource through the Rate Sources tab in the Company (COM) application. A popup window can be accessed by clicking the Add new ratesource icon located below the grid, on the left side of the page.

In the popup, select a date in the From Date field for when the new setup will take effect in the system. Only start dates of future Accounting Periods can be selected.

After choosing the From Date, select the desired Rate Source from the following available options.

For most companies, the primary rate source will adequately meet the need for exchange rates for all currencies used by the company. However, in some cases, a secondary rate source may be necessary when the data provided by the primary source is insufficient for all relevant currencies. To ensure full exchange rate functionality in RamBase, it is important to have a backup option in place. Exchange rate from the secondary rate source will only be used for currencies not supported by the primary source. The available sources for the secondary rate source are the same as those for the primary source.

When a new rate source is entered, transactions made after the from date will utilize the exchange rate from the new source. Transactions made prior to the from date will continue to use the exchange rate from the previous source.

To view available exchange rates for each rate source, access the Currency menu (CUR) application. From the drop-down menu on the upper right corner, select the desired rate source and click on a date to see which currency rates are supported by that source.
