This list shows the segments of transaction information that can be assigned to the G/L field.
To assign a segment to the G/L field, select the segment in this list, and then click Include.
- The segments that appear on the list depend on the transaction type.
- You can assign a maximum of five segments to a G/L Transaction field, providing that the combination does not exceed 60 characters. If the assigned information exceeds this number of characters (including separators), it will be truncated when the transaction is posted.
This field shows how the selected segments and separator will appear for the G/L field.
Select the G/L field for which you are adding information. You can assign the following information:
- For document headers (transaction entries), you can assign the information to be used for the G/L entry description.
You can also assign the information to be used for details that are created for a document when it is passed to General Ledger (for example, summary tax details or summary rounding details).
Because these details are created for a transaction as a whole, the information assigned to their detail description, reference, and comment fields is taken from the entry rather than a document detail.
- For transaction details, you can assign the information to be used for the detail description, detail reference, and detail comment.
The segments you can assign to the field depend on the transaction type.
If you are assigning more than one segment to the G/L field, select the character you want to use to separate the segments.
This list shows the segments of transaction information that are assigned to the G/L field.
To remove a segment from the G/L field, select the segment in this list, and then click Exclude.
Select the type of transaction entry or detail for which you are entering information for G/L fields.
