Diaries are tracking alarm of the transaction, like expiry, Past overdue, claim payment, Post booking and revolving etc.

Doka incorporates a Powerful diary system which is updated automatically during processing a business transaction but can also be edited via manual entries. During the daily use of the system, the diary system is running virtually unnoticed in the background. New diary entries can be added in various situations in a business transaction, for example

• Automatically during processing a business transaction
• Manual entries
• Contract overview panel
• Business Transaction
• Static Data-Maintain Diary Entries

The user who has been defined as “Responsible User” in a business transaction is the responsible user of a diary entry associated to this transaction. The diary entries are then automatically displayed for the responsible user or to all members of the “responsible user group”, when the diary entry is due. By picking up a specific diary the following business transaction is started.
