Advantos Enterprise Upgradeby: Bill Haskett, President
We, at Advantos have been busy since our last newsletter. We have been working
on our enterprise application to allow the use of any web browser. In addition,
there are a number of enhancements and upgraded processes that are included.
We upgraded our web framework away from one Microsoft technology to another and
this allows users to use the web browser of their choice. We are running this
upgrade in our testing environment and are using it for our own corporate books
and for application testing. This new version should be ready by late June and
current Advantos customers will be upgraded at no charge.
We have also upgraded our Windows servers to the latest stable version of Windows.
We have upgraded our web site to use a secure and encryped connection instead of
an standard un-encrypted connection. This secure and encrypted connection has
been active in our Hometastic® application for over a year.
We have made a number of enhancements to our application. We have enhanced importing
to include importing A/P and posting invoices as paid items. This saves a great
deal of time posting ACH checks. We have enhanced our electronic banking to automate
importing remittance files and bank transactions facilitating bank reconciliations
(BAI2 formatted files). If banks provide this service then Advantos can automatically
import the data too. We have enhanced the ability to send emails on work orders and
customer service requests, including integrating customer requests with Hometastic®.
We have also provided a number of fixes to various issues including monthly reporting,
security enhancements, integration of "real-time" accounting information to Hometastic®,
improved logging, etc. Call us for more information.

Do we need to constantly upload documents for Web Portal access by
homeowners?
The Hometastic ® Web Portal is a service offered by Advantos
that allows homeowners and board members access to both homeowner
accounts and standard association reports.
The Hometastic ® Web Portal can be accessed from either the client's
Hometastic ® web site, the client's individual web site, or the management
company's web site. So take advantage of this opportunity to lower your work
load and improve communication with the
All information on Hometastic® is in "real-time", which means there
is no need to constantly update Hometastic with weekly delinquency reports,
A/P invoices due, financial statements, bank balances, etc.

Advantos ® ERP software was designed to work as the core of a property management
business. All of the processes are designed to assist the management company to be
more efficient, resulting in improved profitability. Our Accounts Payable module
can create NACHA files to pay bills and can import invoices, say from a utility
company, en masse.
All of our modules automatically interface with the General Ledger module, where
all standard general ledger reporting is accomplished in a "Trust" and secure
environment.
Our Corporate Receivables module allows the maintenance of the corporate A/R by
automatically tracking and creating transactions rather than forcing users to
manually post transactions to the G/L separately, which is not recommended.
Advantos ® modules all integrate seamlessly with the other Advantos ® modules
in order to make management of all the transactions you will encounter easier and
more secure.
