The list of Accounting parameters for Materials in Production
The GL accounts that will be used for any items of any item type are listed in the table's first row with no item description in the Item column and no item type in the Item Type column. This is the predefined setting.
The GL accounts to be used for items of the particular item type are presented in a row with no specific item in the Item column and this item type selected in the Item Type column
When you post a transaction associated with a particular item, the program will use the default accounts as follows:
- From a specific set of accounts defined for this item if there is such a set.
- From a specific set of accounts defined for the item group to which the item belongs if there is such a set.
- From a specific set of accounts defined for a item type to which the item belongs if there is such a set.
- From the default set of default accounts initially intended for all items.
