Explanation of various terms
In order to optimally work with the Basic and Advanced easyjob International Pack, you will find the various terms defined below with application examples.
Definition of the User Language
In the User Settings, you can set your User Language. This defines if you want your easyjob display in English or German. As soon as you carry out an English installation of easyjob 6, you can change the user language. Terms such as Project Status, Job Status etc. will be filled into your Reports (e.g. Proposal) with the (global) basic language and on the easyjob user interface based on the user language.
A use case is, for example, a multi-warehouse environment in which German users want to have their easyjob user interface in German and users outside of Germany prefer to have it in English. See chapter User Settings.
Definition of the Output Language
The Output Language is understood as everything that you can enter and create in easyjob and is suitable as output for customers. You can enter the master data (e.g. Items, Sub Category, Salutation, etc.) in five additional languages. Based on the language you have assigned to the customer in the address, the standard fields in a report (e.g. Proposal) will be filled in using the respective language. The master data fields on the easyjob user interface will be filled in with the output language set by the user.
A use case is, for example, a Swiss company that would like to prepare Proposals in German, French and/or Italian.
Definition of project price calculation in a foreign currency
You can offer and invoice your projects in a foreign currency. The prices are calculated based on the base currency that was set.
A use case is a company from England that uses the British pound as the base currency but would like to offer a project in Euros.
Definition of different base currencies
You are able to create your master data prices (Items, Resources, etc.) in different base currencies. This function was created for multi-warehouses in different countries with different base currencies.
A use case is, for example, a company that has sites in Switzerland and USA and always makes calculations based on the local currency.
