Enter A/R Credits - User Defined Fields Tab

Access this form using Transactions>Accounts Receivable>Enter A/R Credits.

Use this tab to enter data for any user defined field with a Transaction Documents type and transaction source of ARM. You can only enter data on this tab after entering a credit number on the Transaction Entry tab.

These fields were previously created and assigned characteristics by the Administrator using the Organization>Set Up User Defined Fields - Setup Tab. Once fields have been created, the system automatically creates the Transaction Entry tab and User Defined Fields tab. Otherwise, the transaction entry form is available, but without the tabs and any user defined fields.

 

Display Name: The system displays the name that was assigned to this field. This name cannot be edited here, but it can be changed by the Administrator on the Organization>Set Up User Defined Fields>Setup tab.

Value: Enter the data for this user defined field. Currency user defined fields follow the formatting of the organization's functional currency, even though the data is still processed in the currency selected on the Session form (if it is different than the functional currency). This field is required for new documents if the "Required" check box was selected when the field was created by the Administrator using Organization>Set Up User Defined Fields. When entering data in the Value column, you must adhere to the pre-defined settings (such as field type, length, and decimal places). For example, if the field was set up with a field type of Number, you cannot enter alphabetic characters for that field.

  • Any transaction type fields can be printed on the following reports:
    • Journals>Revenue Journal and Expenditure Journal
    • Transactions>Unposted General Ledger Transactions and Posted General Ledger Transactions
    • General Ledger Analysis>Expanded General Ledger
  • If a field was created with a Transaction Lines type, and ARM was chosen as the transaction source, it will display as a column on the Transaction Entry tab.
