Certification is a verfication process where the ads that have appeared are attested or certified as appeared. The certification file can be accessed directly from the media schedule.
A supplier invoice is the bill received from the supplier. This allows you to enter the supplier invoice details in NEOSYS.
An invoice is the bill sent to the client for the ads placed. This allows you to generate new invoices from existing schedules and reprint old invoices.
The Files menu is a consolidation of all the database files. Some of these files can be accessed from within the schedule directly whereas some can be accessed only from the Files menu.
There could possibly be multiple divisions under one company with different company names, for example within one company there could be different companies for outdoor advertising, media, production, online advertising,etc. NEOSYS allows the agency to maintain different companies for the use of the software with the option of generating reports as per each company.
Selecting this option pops up the list of the companies with information such as the company name and code, current year, financial closing period and operations closing period.
