12 · Changes and new features
This chapter brings together Factuzam's recent new features and separates them from functions that have now been incorporated into the main manual. The new capabilities are described here; for day-to-day use, go to the relevant menu chapter.
Documentation review: 1 September 2026. A function's inclusion in this chapter does not replace checking the installed version or its production validation status.

New Factuzam capabilities
Control U in a browser and on mobile devices
Factuzam Control U brings stock enquiries to a browser on the local network and to mobile devices. It uses Factuzam access and permissions, does not connect directly to MariaDB and operates in enquiry mode.
It can:
- search by item code, SKU or EAN; the Android app can use the camera and torch, while the website accepts manual input or a keyboard scanner and does not use the camera;
- enquire on Stock, Entradas, Ventas and Pendiente de recibir;
- display quantities by colour, size and warehouse, with totals and expandable rows;
- switch the pivot between colours and warehouses, filter values and hide zeroes;
- browse item history and display its photograph when available.
Control U retains the installation's permissions and displays a stock matrix
without changing the data.
The address must be opened from the installation server. Reserve http:// for
a trusted local network and use https:// when access extends beyond that
network. If Recordar acceso is enabled, do so only on a personal,
controlled device, because the browser retains the token until it expires.
VentasFzam and the sales website
VentasFzam and its new web view are read-only enquiries. They display the day's sales, photographs, cost, margin and discounts, with filters for company, warehouse, season, family and supplier. They also show till closures and can organise the list using up to three grouping levels and their subtotals.
The website adds Ver ticket PDF, remembered access for 30 days on a personal device, Mi instalación, Olvidar and Reintentar. Events arrive through the Web Service Fzam queue, so the till can continue working while the network is temporarily unavailable.
The demonstration uses invented data and lets users test dates, filters,
groupings, closures and details without connecting to an installation.
Multiple photographs per item or SKU
Factuzam Fotos Nube captures images by item and colour, queues them and
later incorporates them into the catalogue. In Factuzam, [Ctrl]+[F] now
opens a gallery containing multiple photographs for the selected item or
SKU/colour level.
The gallery lets users browse Anterior / Siguiente, view the counter, add, replace or delete an image, mark the default image, rotate it and choose between the 300, 600 and Real resolutions. When an SKU has no image of its own, it can continue to inherit the main image from the nearest level.
See the procedures under Floating item/SKU photograph and Factuzam Fotos Nube.
Loading from a document in Documentos de Trabajo
Under Almacén ▸ Documentos de Trabajo, open an editable document and choose Cargar ▸ Desde documento. The company is fixed by the header; the selector can filter recent documents by Tipo, Serie and Número, and provides a preview before adding the lines.
Thirteen sources are supported: purchase or sales orders, delivery notes and invoices, returns, POS, transfers and requests, purchase sessions, stocktakes and price lists. Check the item/SKU, description, warehouse and quantity in the preview; the lines are only added to the Documento de Trabajo after confirmation. The source document is not changed.
The selection can then be used for labels or sent to create sales, purchase,
POS, transfer, stocktake or price-list change documents. When a saved
destination is materialised, your own document changes to ENVIADO. See
Work Documents.
Stocktakes and controlled recoding
- The mobile stocktake returns quantities to an open stocktake; the mobile device does not adjust stock by itself.
- Excel stocktakes retain the actual date and time of the count. The Valorar action simulates an appreciation or depreciation against the weighted average cost and displays the previous and proposed values; stock changes only when Regularizar is run.
- Otros ▸ Cambio de artículo o color recodes or merges references while retaining their history. If the destination already exists, Factuzam relates movements and documents, deactivates the source and recalculates the weighted average cost, provided the tax rules permit the operation.
Enabling or excluding discounts in a price list
Open Archivo ▸ Tablas Auxiliares ▸ Tarifas, select the price list and enter Aplicación del descuento. The mode determines which items or SKUs receive the discount set on its lines:
| Mode | Result |
|---|---|
| Todos | Applies the discount to all items while the price list and its date window remain valid. |
| Solo si | Applies the discount only when the effective property has one of the selected values. |
| Todos excepto | Enables the exclusion: applies the discount to every item except those with the selected values. |
For Solo si or Todos excepto, choose an active list-type property, select its values and press Guardar aplicación. Factuzam resolves the value in the order SKU ▸ colour ▸ item. If there is no effective value, it follows the conservative rule and does not apply the discount.
Only one property can be configured per price list. To disable the exclusion and return to general behaviour, choose Todos and press Guardar aplicación.
This condition is combined with Dto. desde / Dto. hasta: both the rule and date must be satisfied. When they are not, the final price returns to the starting price without a discount. See Price lists.
Replacement corrective invoicing
A completed sale is not edited. Under TPV ▸ Buscar / Modificar (F10), locate the receipt, press Rectificar and choose Sustitutiva. Factuzam opens a new positive operation so that it contains the complete, correct version.
When it is completed with [F12], Factuzam uses a corrective series, links the
new document to the original and records or queues it according to the tax
mode. The original sale is replaced and no longer counts as active; the new
sale provides the corrected amounts and stock movements. Do not confuse this
option with Convertir en normal, which only creates an invoice bearing the
customer's details.
See how this workflow compares with correction by differences under Correcting a receipt.
Languages and asynchronous work
Factuzam distributes complete es-ES, en-GB, ca-ES and zh-CN packages
from a central catalogue. The language is selected within the application, and
the standalone editor can maintain translations without changing the
executable.
Operations that depend on external services—such as VeriFactu, PrestaShop or the Web Service Fzam—are recorded in queues with statuses, attempts and HTTP history. The commercial document is not blocked while waiting for the network. Users can monitor these queues under Otros ▸ Colas de envíos.
Backups can be generated in encrypted .crypt format; the available formats
and automations depend on the user's permissions. Before merging items,
performing a bulk stock adjustment or restoring data, create and verify a
backup appropriate for the installation.
