Company Details Maintenance
The Company Details Maintenance window provides an ability for the System Manager to edit central data specific to your business conditions. To reach this maintenance window, select the File — System Manager — Company Details menu function.
One tab pane window is presented covering company base data, system settings and window default data which is used at various points in the program to ease keyboard data entry.
WARNING: Certain data items can only be changed and saved when you are the only user on the system. If you change a value the Save Changes and Revert to Saved buttons become enabled. A message will also appear at the bottom right to indicate either “Saving your changes can be made with other users on the system” or “Saving your changes requires Single-User operation”. In the later case you can only save changes if you are the only user on the system. If you are not, you will receive a message with the Multi-user Warning Message window.
Company details data is held in a single record in its own file. When a new data file is created, Caliach Vision creates a single record of company details with default data already entered.

Variances
Order permissible inventory quantity variances.
Field |
Description |
---|---|
Purchase Order Receiving Quantity |
Company and System Settings. Goods rec. qty. variance % limit. {MCDFILE.MCDRECP number 2dpShortnum} During the goods receiving process, you may wish to have the option of completing a PO line item with a delivered quantity that is not exactly the ordered quantity. This can be useful to avoid leaving trivial quantities on back-order or, if the received quantity is in excess of that ordered, having to adjust the order prior to receiving it. To provide this feature, you can enter a variance limit in both quantity percent and value terms. For each PO line item the system will apply the lower of the two values and permit, after a warning, line item completion with that transaction. Purchase history and Inventory will reflect the actual receipt quantity. |
Purchase Order Receiving Value |
Company and System Settings. Goods rec. qty. variance value limit. {MCDFILE.MCDRECV number 2dpShortnum} |
Work Order Kitting Quantity |
Company and System Settings. WO kit variance % permissible without creating shortages. {MCDFILE.MCDWOKV number 2dpShortnum} During the Work Order kitting process, you may wish to have the option of issuing a quantity that is greater or less than the BoM quantity. This can be useful where BoMs reflect average use of raw material. Works history and Inventory will reflect the actual kit quantity.
|
Work Order Receiving Additional Quantity |
Company and System Settings.

Field |
Description |
---|---|
System Currency Symbol |
Company and System Settings. Standard currency symbol. {MCDFILE.MCDSTCU char 3} Caliach Vision is a multi-currency system enabling you to create POs and SOs in any currency defined in Currencies. The symbol entered here is the local currency that you normally work in. The text is used in documents. Any Sales or Purchase record has the currency code (or symbol) written to it. Hence, if you change the standard currency symbol the system will warn you and, if confirmed, replace the old code on all records with the new one. This can take some considerable time if there are many history and/or ledger transaction records.

Each part can be given a local sales price (in standard currency) and five prices in foreign currencies. You must enter here the currencies you want to apply to the 5 currency prices. They must be pre-defined as currencies in the appropriate “System Manager” section. When a SO is created in a foreign currency and that currency is one of these five and there is a non-zero price in the appropriate part currency price field, that price will be applied to the SO line item. Otherwise, the current currency exchange rate will be applied to the local price. |

Parent number Prefix in SO Configuration |
Company and System Settings. Prefix characters for parent part number created in SO configuration. {MCDFILE.MCDCONL char 3} When you use Sales Order Configuration to create a SO specific assembly from a set of options, the resultant assembly is given a part number constructed in the form XXX-123456-789. Where “XXX” is the prefix entered here, “123456” is the SO number and “789” is the line item of the order. The prefix can not contain a “WO” as this would cause a clash with work order operation outwork purchasing. If the prefix is left blank, SO Configuration will not be accessible to any user on the system. Sales Order Configuration is set up in the Sales Order Configuration Options window. |
Parent number Prefix in Job Configuration |
Company and System Settings. Prefix characters for parent part number created in Job configuration. {MCDFILE.MCDCONJ char 3} See above for more details. |
Maximum BoM Structural Depth |
Company and System Settings. Maximum BoM level number. {MCDFILE.MCDLLNO integer shortint} Having very deep multi-level Bills of materials may be appropriate for your products or manufacturing process. However, the deeper the Bills the longer processing can take and the greater the number of transactions needed to create an end product from purchased components or raw materials. As a deterrent against excessive BoM depth the manager can set a limit to the depth at which Bills can be created. Components cannot be added to a Parent part if the Parent equals or exceeds the limit entered here. In any event the maximum is 99. It is suggested that this is initially set low until it is found to be inadequate. In this way the business can start with optimum performance. When, during BoM maintenance, the limit is encountered the System Manager may increase the Maximum BoM Level value. |
Goods Receiving Overhead Rate |
Company and System Settings. Goods receiving default overhead percent (can be overridden by PTMROVR) {MCDFILE.MCDPOOV number 2dpShortnum} This is an overhead (burden) rate that is applied to all purchased parts during Cost Roll-Up or when their price is confirmed after a PO receipt. If the part has a non-zero individual rate (PTMROVR), then this will apply rather than this global rate. If PTMPOVR is negative, the overhead rate will be zero. The subsequent overhead amount is stored in the “Receiving overhead” field in the Parts Master record. The rate can be any range from 0.00 to 999.99% and applies to the prime (material) cost. This rate can be used to account for goods receiving costs such as inward freight, PO and stores administration, etc.. |
Work Order Receiving Overhead Rate |
Company and System Settings. WO receiving default overhead percent (can be overridden by PTMROVR). {MCDFILE.MCDWOOV number 2dpShortnum} This is an overhead (burden) rate that is applied in a similar manner to the Goods receiving overhead rate but in this case applies to assembly parts. It is only used during Cost Roll-Up. If the part has a non-zero individual rate (PTMROVR), then this will apply rather than this global rate. If PTMPOVR is negative, the overhead rate will be zero. The subsequent overhead amount is stored in the same “Receiving overhead” field in the Parts Master record. The rate can be any range from 0.00 to 999.99% and applies to the This-level material, labour and labour overhead cost. This rate can be used to account for WO handling and stores costs. |
Mass Units Descriptor |
Company and System Settings. Mass units for window/report display. {MCDFILE.MCDMASU char 4} This is a window and report descriptor for the units of mass (weight) used throughout the system. Parts can be given a value for their mass and process route operations can be given a value of mass change. You should settle on a standard for your business, e.g. Kgs., Lbs. etc.. |
Batch Number Prefix Character |
Company and System Settings. Batch number prefix character. {MCDFILE.MCDBATC char 1} Batch numbers are seven characters long, created automatically by the system for inward part inventory transactions when the part is flagged as tracked. There are two batch numbering system options, controlled by a system preference, both generate a number up to 6 digits long. The prefix character is appended to the generated number. You can use this prefix to group batch numbers. You are restricted to numerals 0 through 9 and upper case letters A through Z only. In addition, you can not use any character that has already been used and is currently on file. See also System Preferences topic for control of the batch numbering system. |
|
Purchase Part Performance Factors Factors are used to load the four Purchase parts performance indicators to produce the overall performance of the supplier for a part. The factors are used on the purchase parts maintenance window and during the global changes function for calculating performance. The factors must add up to 100. If all four are given the value 25, then each indicator will be equally weighted. If one is given 100 and the others 0, the overall rating for the supplier will be solely based on that indicator. |
Delivery Speed |
Company and System Settings. Delivery speed performance factor (0-100). {MCDFILE.MCDPPDF integer shortint} |

Material Costing Method When costs for parts are updated either in product costing roll-up or updating costs, the basis on which purchased parts and material current costs are updated is governed by your selection here. Last price paid simply takes the unit cost in the last purchase history record. First in First out (FIFO) takes account of the current inventory physical quantity and calculates the current costs based on the preceding history of purchases assuming that receipts into inventory are consumed in the order they are received. Last in First out (LIFO) uses purchase history in the same way as FIFO but assumes that newest receipts are consumed first. Average of history uses all purchase history records for the part and calculates a weighted average cost for the part. See the Product Costing window for more details. |

ABC Class Value Breaks The ABC codes for parts can be assigned automatically as part of MRP processing. The total value of the recommendations from the MRP plan (see MRP processing help) on a “This-level” basis is calculated. Then the parts accounting for the most ‘A value break’ value of the total are given ‘A’ class, those remaining that account for above ‘B value break’ value of the total are given ‘B’ class, those remaining that account for above ‘C value break’ value of the total are given ‘C’ class. Parts contributing less than ‘C value break’ or are not involved in the MRP results are cleared of any class. When editing ‘A’ must be greater than ‘B’ which must be greater than ‘C’. |

You can use this to copy or move certain directories of the Caliach Vision installation from their local installation location to the datafile directory, typically on a server. The contents of these directories will then be common to all users attached to the datafile. This can be useful to ensure backups are made regularly and it can be much more convenient for system management. However, using local directories will reduce network traffic. Moving a directory, rather than copying it will delete the local files. The process operates recursively on directories to any level. |
