1st Feature: Web Client

With version 10, the solution provides a new native web client, based on SAP Fiori and SAPUI5 technologies. SAP has put significant effort from a user experience and technical perspective.

This new feature is available in all SAP Business One UI languages and supports the core logic listed below:

  • Sales Order
  • Additional Sales Documents
  • Business Partners
  • Items
  • Activities
  • Analytics
  • User-defined objects, tables and fields
  • Enterprise search

2nd Feature: SAP Business One Office 365 Integration

Users will now benefit from an SAP Business One Office 365 Integration feature to export documents, reports and queries to Microsoft OneDrive as Word or Excel files. They’ll then be able to view them online. You can also design your own export templates.

3rd Feature: Interactive Gantt Charts

Improved interactive Gantt Charts are available to make updates and work with Project Management more easily. Project Phases can now be moved or extended/shortened interactively and new fields were added to represent Project Due Date and Finish Date.

Thanks to this improvement, projects can be updated according to planning changes within the interactive Gantt Chart. It’s also now easier and more visual to plan Project Management tasks.

  • Make changes directly in Gantt Charts to update project details.
  • Move Gantt Chart time bars of subprojects and project stages to update project timelines for planning purposes.
  • Gantt Charts are now dynamic project planning tools rather than static overviews.

Users are now able to open accounts and business partner master data directly from the following reports using the link arrows appearing before the names of accounts or business partners:

  • Balance Sheet, Trial Balance, Profit and Loss Statement
  • Balance Sheet Comparison, Trial Balance Comparison, Profit and Loss Comparison
  • Balance Sheet Budget Report, Trial Balance Budget Report, Profit and Loss Statement Budget Report
