Navigating Forward and Backward in Forms of the Enforcement Form Regulation (ZVFV)

In the dialogs for entering data for the ZVFV forms, clicking the OK button moves you to the next dialog. If you click the Cancel button, you’ll go back to the previous dialog, where you can change the data you entered in that step.

Screenshot Feature in Microsoft Edge Blocks the CTRL+SHIFT+S Shortcut for Saving

The latest versions of Microsoft Edge have added a feature that lets users take screenshots using the CTRL+SHIFT+S keyboard shortcut. With this feature, users can capture the entire screen or a selected area.
As a result, this shortcut, which is linked to the Save button in many dialogs, no longer works. As a temporary solution, you can use Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox.
Starting with version 2023.1 P3, the shortcut [Ctrl + Shift + S] has been changed to [Ctrl + H].

Base Interest Rate – Update Regularly

Since the base interest rate changes on January 1 and July 1 each year, additional rows with interest calculations are added to the claim statement on these dates, so the current absolute interest rate is always visible. If the rate hasn’t changed from the previous period, you don’t need to enter it again, which helps save space in your claim statement.
Please enter any changes under “Master Data/Finance Tables/Base Interest Rate.” The base interest rate as of January 1, 2025, is 2.27%.

Forms for the Enforcement Form Regulation (ZVFV) Valid from September 1, 2022

The table below shows the mapping of process codes for the new templates for ZVFV forms. The old codes may still be displayed in some cases but should no longer be used. Please note that some process templates still reference the old templates. These options will be removed in future versions. Your administrator can hide the old process templates.

Using the T005 Process Template “Creditor’s Title” Instead of the T01K Process Template “Title”

In the T01K process template, the district court from the master data is always pre-filled when creating a new entry. Manual changes are not accepted during creation. To fill in the court individually for each process, you need to save the process first, then open it for editing and make the change.

In the T005 process template, you can manually fill in the fields right when you create a new entry.

The T01K process template will be hidden in a future version.

Change to the Dispute Value Limit for Jurisdiction of Courts in Judicial Dunning Proceedings

In the system settings under GSV, there are two parameters to define the dispute value limit and the jurisdiction of the courts in judicial dunning proceedings. These determine whether a district court or a regional court should be specified. Dispute Value Limit for District Court Jurisdiction The amount of 5,000 EUR, which has been valid for 30 years, was previously a fixed constant. Now, with the parameter “Max. Dispute Value for District Court Jurisdiction” (max_sum_in_dispute_local_court), users can set and adjust this value themselves as soon as it becomes effective. With the update, the 5,000 EUR value is transferred to this parameter. Any changes take effect immediately in the program logic. Law Amending the Jurisdiction Dispute Value of District Courts in Effect To assign the responsible court in cases where the dispute value limit does not apply, the parameter “Law Amending the Jurisdiction Dispute Value of District Courts in Effect” (jurisdiction_reform_in_force) is used.

For orders with catalog number 02: - Until the law takes effect, as with other catalog numbers, the responsible court (district or regional) depends on the dispute value (with exceptions for rent claims and catalog number 95). - Once the law is in effect, for GMV applications that include claims with catalog number 02, the responsible court is always the regional court, regardless of the dispute value.

When the law takes effect, users must activate the option.
