Each of these role-based homepages consist of unique widgets tailored to the unique requirements of each role. Users can add additional personalization to these homepages or create their own. The widgets also allow access to drill back to specific Infor CloudSuite Business information for focused decision making.
• More options for managing global business.In addition to the multi-currency features already provided in Infor CloudSuite, users can now define multiple currencies for individual customers and vendors, to allow for more complex transaction currency exchange requirements, and so orders can be specified in a currency other than the customer default currency.
• Improved reporting on material transactions.The document number field has been added to several forms which allows a user to filter general ledger-posted transactions and other reports by this document number.
• Modern scheduling options.The scheduling functionality has been enhanced by replacing the calendar control used to display appointments with a more modern version. This new version supports the ability to run in both the Smart Client and Web Client.
