Road tolls

  • Previously, you could only view all Road tolls individually or view all Road tolls grouped by country (without any details). Now you can choose to display some Road toll types grouped, some individually, and also ignore some Road toll types. For example, you can display distance-based Road tolls grouped by country, but bridge tolls individually. You can also choose to display distance-based Road tolls individually for Denmark, but grouped for Germany.

  • You can now also enter the CO2 emission class (EU) of price vehicle types in Opter. This leads to more equitable amounts for Road tolls, for example for the Danish distance-based and CO2 differentiated Road tolls.

  • Now the order date is used first and the order date second to calculate the Road tolls. This leads to more fair amounts for Road tolls. (Previously, "today's date" was used, which could be the date the order was created, for example.)

  • For consignments: You can now choose whether to use the same service or different services for consignment orders and original orders. (Previously, different services had to be used for consignment orders and original orders if, for example, you did not want original orders (customer orders) that were consigned to be charged Road tolls).

  • Other improvements made are that if you change the resource on a shipment, toll items (that have not been manually changed) are moved to the new resource. Toll items have also been given clearer icons, etc.

CO2 emissions

It is now possible to do the following:

  • Show calculated CO2 emissions for the order in order reception, order check and on the customer web.

  • Recalculate CO2 emissions in the order check for one or more orders at the same time, e.g. if you have changed the fuel consumption of a vehicle.

  • Change the Calculated CO2 emissions for a shipment in Order reception. (This will also change the Calculated CO2 emissions for the order).

  • Display CO2 emissions on Freight bills.

  • Display CO2 emissions in the mission control and in the co-loading control.

  • For consignments, it is possible to select whether or not the CO2 emissions calculated for the consignment order are to be distributed between the original shipments.

In addition, CO2 emissions are calculated automatically for orders that come into your Opter via EDI.

Account coding

Account coding has been made faster and handles consignment orders better.

  • Progress bar showing the status when closing invoice and supplier bill periods.

  • Faster pre-screening.

  • Account for orders with shipments included in a consignment order according to the account coding of the consignment order or the original order. Set for the account assignment sources for which it may be relevant in Account coding priority order (for example, customer).

  • Include the year and month from the original order and/or consignment order, as well as the waybill number from the consignment order, in the invoice export to file (XmlSerializer). Set on the Economy tab in the office settings. This can be useful if you want to accrue based on order date instead of invoice date.

Consignment

  • The distance of a consignment order is always calculated by totalling the consignment shipments, i.e. as the order is actually carried out. The setting on the service (tab Orders and pricing) does not apply.

  • The status of the consignment shipment is updated when an original order is released from the consignment order.

  • PODs that are registered on the consignment order are also put on all original orders included in the consignment order.

    PODs registered on a consignment shipment, for example if the POD is registered in Opter Driver or Opter Terminal, are also registered on the original shipment that has the same sender/recipient as the consignment shipment.

  • Account for orders with shipments included in a consignment order according to the account coding of the consignment order or the original order. Set for the account assignment sources for which it may be relevant in Account coding priority order (for example, customer).

  • Include the year and month from the original order and/or consignment order, as well as the waybill number from the consignment order, in the invoice export to file (XmlSerializer). Set on the Economy tab in the office settings. This can be useful if you want to accrue based on order date instead of invoice date.
