To eliminate financial errors and delays caused by manual processes, in Splynx, you can configure finance automation in Config → Finance → Automation. Please note, these will be the global settings of the system.

The following parameters can be configured for automation:

automation

Finance automation

  • Enable automatic issuing - enables/disables automatic issuing of Invoices, Transactions, and Proforma Invoices;

  • Confirmation period(days) - set the date for automatic confirmation of invoices/invoice batches to execute automatic issuing of invoices. If you don't confirm issuing during the configured number of days, invoices will be auto generated the next day after the confirmation period. The options to choose confirmation days are: 0, 3, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 days;

  • Date to use on finance elements - here you can configure the date of transactions and invoices issuing. It can be the billing day or the real date of issuing. For example, the billing day is on 1st day of the month and you have set 3 days as a confirmation period. In that case the invoice can be dated on the billing day regardless of confirmation days or the real date of issuing: maximum on the 4th day of the month (if you won't confirm issuing and invoices will be auto generated the next day);

  • Dashboard notification - with this option enabled you will be notified on the Dashboard about confirmation on the billing day;

  • Allow saving preview in future - enables/disables the ability to save previews of invoices for upcoming months/future dated months (Finance → History);

  • Weekend processing - enables/disables processing of billing due and grace periods on weekends.
