2.6.1. Charts
In order to make your business processes more transparent ABAS has
provided the abas ERP screens with charts. You can thus display your
data expressively: distribution of turnover from products and customers,
receipt postings and issue postings of warehouse stocks, depreciation
schedules, planning future payments, etc.
Detailed information on the
chart will be displayed when
you put the mouse pointer on
a bar or a row or when you
double-click on the chart.
In flowcharts (Gantt charts)
you can move the bars with
the mouse; the edited values
will be adopted into the
database (e.g. in production
planning).
