Datamere News Update October 2014 Instant Quote in GMS V4 Causes a Stir! The instant quote functionality that was on demonstration provoked lots of interest at the Energy Event last month! With just a postcode and AQ you can provide a detailed gas quotation including detailed network charges on the spot. I’m sure you’ll agree this is a great benefit for any sales team. Carrying on with the V4 theme it’s great to be able to report that that yes, we are finally on the home straight with the last areas to be developed in GMS V4©! The core modules are all in place and just small pieces of development remain in some of the optional modules. We’ve been in touch with all existing clients with a road map for the new system and will be arranging a migration timetable in the next few weeks. UK Link Shipper Engagement Days Xoserve held their latest shipper engagement day in early October and saw a large turnout from shippers and suppliers alike. Datamere is keeping a very close eye on the changes to ensure that V4 is fully compliant with all the industry changes that go ahead. The detailed file formats are now available to view on the Xoserve website at http://www.xooserve.com/index.php/ourchange-programme/uk-link-programme/uklink-programme-file-formats/ At this stage it seems unlikely that the Project Nexus changes will be incorporated into V3.
