Lucanet CFO Solution Platform

The Lucanet CFO Solution Platform is the new, web-based CPM software from Lucanet, which offers a seamless, uniform UX with shared functions for all the solutions you run on it. Solution is the word Lucanet uses for applications that can run on the Lucanet CFO Solution Platform. With Lucanet 24.1, the following solutions are available:

Lucanet Consolidation & Financial Planning

for web-based access to data from Lucanet.

Financial OLAP Server

with numerous editing and reporting options

Lucanet ESG Reporting

for the company-wide calculation of CO2 emissions and collection of

ESG

data in accordance with the current

ESRS

provisions of the EU

Lucanet Disclosure Management

for the creation of business reports in various formats, for example in

iXBRL

format, including

ESEF

and ESG.

Lucanet 24.1 replaces Lucanet. Web Client with the Lucanet CFO Solution Platform. Lucanet. Web Client and Lucanet. Web Server will therefore no longer be available with Lucanet 24.1. The previous functions of Lucanet. Web Client have been moved to the Lucanet CFO Solution Platform solution Lucanet Consolidation & Financial Planning.

Lucanet. Cloud customers with an SaaS contract will be able to access the Lucanet CFO Solution Platform and use the previous functions as well as the new options of the Lucanet CFO Solution Platform after updating to Lucanet 24.1. Separate licensing is required to use the new options, referred to as the solutions for ESG Reporting and Disclosure Management.

Lucanet. Cloud customers who have a maintenance and support agreement with us will no longer be able to use Lucanet.Web Client after updating to Lucanet 24.1. Instead, they will need to switch to a SaaS contract so they can access the Lucanet CFO Solution Platform.

Lucanet offers three different license packages: Basic, Advanced and Professional. For more information on Lucanet’s SaaS subscription options and FAQs on this topic, see Find the perfect solution for your business needs.

Lucanet-On-Premises customers with a maintenance and support contract must switch to Lucanet. Cloud and an SaaS contract to access the Lucanet CFO Solution Platform.

Lucanet-On-Premises customers with a rental contract must switch to Lucanet. Cloud to access the Lucanet CFO Solution Platform.

No. The Lucanet CFO Solution Platform is a SaaS product (SaaS = software as a service) – this means that it is hosted and managed centrally, and does not require on-premises installation of a server or client.

The Lucanet CFO Solution Platform is automatically available to Lucanet. Cloud customers with an SaaS contract after updating to Lucanet 24.1. After updating to Lucanet 24.1 or as soon as a new user is created, the users first receive an e-mail with the initial access data and the URL to the Lucanet CFO Solution Platform to define a password. Once they have set a password, users can start up the Lucanet CFO Solution Platform as follows:

In the

Extras

menu in Lucanet.Financial Client

Directly by clicking the link in the e-mail containing the initial access data

No. Users only need to log into the Lucanet CFO Solution Platform once, not separately for each different solution.

You can create users and define access types and user roles for specific solutions in the user management area. Users on the Lucanet CFO Solution Platform are automatically synchronized with Lucanet.Financial Client. This means that any changes made to a user on the Lucanet CFO Solution Platform are automatically transferred to Lucanet.Financial Client.

90 days

New passwords cannot match any of your

previous 5 passwords

Password changes are limited to

twice per day

You will receive advance notifications

30, 14, 7, and 1 day(s)

before your password expires.

Password Requirements:

When creating a new password, it must be at least 14 characters long and contain characters from at least 3 of 4 categories (uppercase, lowercase, numbers, special characters).

For existing users: You can continue using your current password. The new requirements apply when you voluntarily change your password, use the Forgot Password feature, or when your password expires.

For more information, see Password Policy and Changing Your Password.

After 5 consecutive incorrect login attempts, your account is automatically locked for 30 minutes to prevent unauthorized access. If you need to access your account immediately, you can use the Forgot your password option to reset your password.

You can change your password up to twice per day. This limit prevents rapid password cycling and ensures the password history policy is effective. If you've already changed your password twice today, you can change it again starting from 00:00 (midnight).
