Custom descriptions allow the user to customize the description of a field. The fields with names that start with 'WMS' are custom descriptions found only in the WMS database and do not exist in Sage Timberline Job Cost.

Note |
|
The Sage Timberline Accounting custom descriptions MUST MATCH EXACTLY to the custom descriptions in WMS. The synchronizing of Job Cost and Accounts Payable information will not function properly unless the descriptions match between Sage Timberline Accounting and WMS. |
From the Setup menu, select Custom Descriptions.
Or, click on the Custom Descriptions 
icon on the Setup toolbar.
The following screen will display in the right side of the WMS desktop:
AP - Fields beginning with AP are Sage Timberline Accounting Accounts Payable fields. Custom descriptions in WMS must match the custom descriptions in sage Timberline Accounting.
AR - Fields beginning with AR are Sage Timberline Accounting Accounts Receivable fields. Custom descriptions in WMS must match the custom descriptions in Sage Timberline Accounting.
EQ - Fields beginning with EQ are Sage Timberline Accounting Equipment fields. Custom descriptions in WMS must match the custom descriptions in Sage Timberline Accounting.
JC - Fields beginning with JC are Sage Timberline Accounting Job Cost fields. Custom descriptions in WMS must match the custom descriptions in Sage Timberline Accounting.
WMS - Fields beginning with WMS are only found in WMS and do not exist in Sage Timberline Accounting.
This is the standard description within the software that will display on screens and reports if the Custom Description field is left blank.
This is a user-defined field. If a custom description is assigned, the custom description will display on screens and reports instead of the standard software defined description.
