Accounting Divisions

 

Accounting Division Notes

Accounting divisions in WMS are only applicable when the Accounting Integration Type is set to Explorer Contract Manager V7. For more information on selecting an Accounting Integration Type in Setup > Company see Company Accounting Integration.

Accounting divisions in WMS represent the division entities in the external Accounting system which is integrated to WMS.

Accounting divisions belong to Accounting Companies. i.e. They are always associated with a single Accounting company and represent a division of that single Accounting company.

Accounting divisions also have a one to one relationship with WMS divisions. Each WMS division is assigned to an Accounting company and one of its Accounting divisions. An Accounting division cannot be assigned to multiple WMS divisions. For more information on assigning Accounting companies and divisions to WMS divisions see Division Accounting Settings.

These Accounting divisions may contain a more granular assignment of the job information, supplier information, tax and job cost codes used in the Purchasing, Sales Pricing and Scheduling modules.

Differences in appearance and function within the Accounting Integration Settings form based on the selected accounting type are noted as they apply in the topics below.
