You can define as many distribution sets as you need to represent the various combinations of general ledger accounts to which you post transactions. You can also change or delete distribution sets. More...
You can change the description, the list of distribution codes, and the accounts in a distribution set, but you cannot change the code that identifies the distribution set.
If you want to reuse the description from an existing distribution code, add the distribution code to the distribution set, clear the Distribution Code field, and then enter the general ledger account to use. (You cannot change the account for a line to which a distribution code is assigned.)
If you make a distribution set inactive you cannot use it when you add a new transaction. However, you can print and post transactions that include the distribution set if you made it inactive after you entered the transaction.
If you change the accounts for a distribution code, distribution sets that use the code are immediately updated when you save the changes.
Deleting a distribution set does not remove any information from Bank Services, except the set definition.
Deleting a distribution set after adding a transaction has no effect on posting. However, you will have to change the distribution set to a valid one if you edit the transaction.
