Default Nominal Code on Documents


Datafile Software

Default Nominal Code on Documents

This new feature allows you to set a default nominal code to be used for generated sales and purchase transactions within the invoice document, overriding that applied during order entry.

Occasionally you may need to override the nominal code entered on the order with another, perhaps a particular document you produce for overseas orders needs to be analysed separately from general codes and rather than rely on the operator to enter the correct codes at order entry. Alternatively repeat contract invoices may use the entered code for first invoice but the document nominal code for subsequent renewals.

Installation

Document Design Manager

To set a default nominal code you need to update the Document Design Parameters. To do this select Installation from the main menu followed by, if Premier or Diamond, Application Manager and then Document Design Manager. Select the Sales/Purchase Order Processing Documents option as required and then select the Invoices layouts. Enter the number of the required document layout and, when displayed, select the Parameters option from the main toolbar. Parameter Screen 2 of the Document Parameters allows you to set an override nominal code.


Use Specific Nominal Code– enter nominal code to be used in preference to code set on order entry, if left blank the code entered on the order is used. Entered code is validated to ensure that matches the nominal account code format.
